Steve Jobs' Stanford Commencement Address

By Ethan Maurice | December 16, 2015

Steve Jobs on trusting the dots will connect in your future, finding your passion, and using death as a tool to make the big choices in life:

"Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure — these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart."

- Steve Jobs
