MESSAGE FROM MRS ANITA PRATAP llYou Can Win-Message from G Raju

Quotes from Steve Jobs’ inspiring and uplifting Stanford Commencement Address 2005 –

“You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life….. 

“If you live each day as if it was your last, some day you will most certainly be right,” he quoted to great applause. “For the past 33 years I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself if the day were the last in my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today? And when the answer has been ‘No’ for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.

“Remembering that I would be dead soon is the most important tool I have encountered to help me make the right choices in life. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.

“No one wants to die and yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that’s as it should be because Death is very likely the single best invention of life. It is life’s change agent. It clears up the old to make way for the new.

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
