AMAZING STEVE JOBS QUOTES (THAT WILL MOTIVATE YOU)

Let’s go invent tomorrow rather than worrying about what happened yesterday.

I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out ok.

I do not adopt softness towards others because I want to make them better.

The doers are the major thinkers. The people that really create the things that change this industry are both the thinker and doer in one person.

You can build your own things that other people can use. And once you learn that, you’ll never be the same again.

Once you discover one simple fact, and that is everything around you that you call life, was made up by people that were no smarter than you.

I always advise people – Don’t wait! Do something when you are young, when you have nothing to lose, and keep that in mind.

That’s why we started Apple, we said you know, we have absolutely nothing to lose. I was 20 years old at the time, Woz was 24-25, so we have nothing to lose. We have no families, no children, no houses. Woz had an old car. I had a Volkswagen van, I mean, all we were going to lose is our cars and the shirts off our back.

We he had everything to gain. And we figured even if we crash and burn, and lose everything, the experience will have been worth ten times the cost.

That’s been one of my mantras – focus and simplicity. Click to tweet

The most precious thing that we all have with us is time. Click to tweet

The broader one’s understanding of the human experience, the better design we will have.

On the blue box: That was what we learned: was that us, too, we didn’t know much. We could build a little thing that could control a giant thing and that was an incredible lesson.

Don’t take it all too seriously. If you want to live your life in a creative way, as an artist, you have to not look back too much. You have to be willing to take whatever you’ve done and whoever you were and throw them away.

We were really working fourteen-to-eighteen-hour days, seven days a week. For like, two years, three years. That was our life. But we loved it, we were young, and we could do it.

You have to trust in something, your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever.

People judge you on your performance, so focus on the outcome. Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren’t used to an environment where excellence is expected.

You have to believe that the dots will somehow connect in your future.

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people’s thinking.

And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

Famous Apple Ad with Einstein, Picasso, etc. (Video): Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify and vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as crazy, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.

Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me… Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful… that’s what matters to me.

Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice.

steve jobs quotes sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick dont lose faith wisdom quotes

Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don’t lose faith.

If today were the last of your life, would you do what you were going to do today?

I’m convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You’ve got to find what you love.

When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: ‘If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you’ll most certainly be right.’ It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: ‘If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?’ And whenever the answer has been ‘no’ for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.

Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking and don’t settle.

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.

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.

There is no reason not to follow your heart. Click to tweet
