【正文】 me down, and it has made all the difference in my second story is about love and was lucky — I found what I loved to do early in and I started Apple in my parents garage when I was worked hard, and in 10 years Apple had grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion pany with over 4000 had just released our finest creation — the Macintosh — a year earlier, and I had just turned then I got can you get fired from a pany you started? Well, as Apple grew we hired someone who I thought was very talented to run the pany with me, and for the first year or so things went then our visions of the future began to diverge and eventually we had a falling we did, our Board of Directors sided with at 30 I was very publicly had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was really didn39。t interest me, and begin dropping in on

然后進(jìn)入我的腸子, 用一根針在我的胰腺上的腫瘤上取了幾個(gè)細(xì)胞。你有時(shí)候會思考你將會失去某些東西, “記住你即將死去”是我知道的避免這些想法的最好辦法。所以繼續(xù)找，直到你找到它，不要停下來！我的第三個(gè)故事是關(guān)于死亡的。不要失去信仰。在接下來的五年里，我創(chuàng)立了一個(gè)名叫NeXT的公司, 還有一個(gè)叫Pixar的公司, 然后和一個(gè)后來成為我妻子的優(yōu)雅女人相識。我把事情弄得糟糕透頂了。但是后來我們對未來的看法發(fā)生了分歧, 最終我們吵了起來。我的第二個(gè)故事是關(guān)于愛和失去。我把當(dāng)時(shí)我學(xué)的那些 東西全都設(shè)計(jì)進(jìn)了Mac。我跟著我的直覺和好奇心走, 遇到的很多東西,此后被證明是無價(jià)之寶。我不知道我真正想要做什么,我也不知道大學(xué)能怎樣幫助我找到答案。她決定讓別人收養(yǎng)我，她十分想讓我被大學(xué)畢業(yè)生收養(yǎng)。我從來沒有從大學(xué)中畢業(yè)。s change clears out the old to make way for the now the new is you, but

年。你們的時(shí)間都有限，所以不要按照別人的意愿去活，這是浪費(fèi)時(shí)間。這是我和死神離得最近的一次，我希望也是今后幾十年里最近的一次。大約一年前，我被診斷患了癌癥。不要半途而廢。有時(shí)生活會當(dāng)頭給你一棒，但不要灰心。盡管前景未卜，但從頭開始的輕松感取代了保持成功的沉重感。我感到自己給老一代的創(chuàng)業(yè)者丟了臉─因?yàn)槲胰拥袅私坏阶约菏掷锏慕恿Π?。那時(shí)，我們剛剛推出了我們最好的產(chǎn)品─ Macintosh 電腦─那是在第 9 年，我剛滿 30 歲。你們同樣不可能從現(xiàn)在這個(gè)點(diǎn)上看到將來；只有回頭看時(shí)，才會發(fā)現(xiàn)它們之間的關(guān)系。但是，十年之后，我們在設(shè)計(jì)第一臺 Macintosh 計(jì)算機(jī)時(shí)，它一下子浮現(xiàn)在我眼前。我喜歡這樣。這時(shí)，我就要花光父母一輩子節(jié)省下來的錢了。沒想到我落地的霎那間，那對夫婦卻決定收養(yǎng)一名女孩。“好學(xué)若饑、謙卑若愚”很榮幸和大家一道參加這所世界上最好的一座大學(xué)的畢業(yè)典禮。第一個(gè)故事講的是點(diǎn)與點(diǎn)之間的關(guān)系。不過，沒過幾個(gè)月她就心軟了，因?yàn)槲业酿B(yǎng)父母許諾日后一定送我上大學(xué)。從退學(xué)那一刻起，我就可以不再選那些我毫無興趣的必修課，開始旁聽一些看上去有意思的課。校園里所有的公告欄和每個(gè)抽屜標(biāo)簽上的字都寫得非常漂亮。要不是我當(dāng)初在大學(xué)里偶然選了這么一門課，Macintosh 計(jì)算機(jī)絕不會有那么多種印刷字體或間距安排合理的字號。這樣做從來沒有讓我的希望落空過，而且還徹底改變了我的生活。在開始的一年多里，一切都很順利。但是，漸漸地，我開始有了一個(gè)想法─我仍然熱愛我過去做的一切。皮克斯公司推出了世界上第一部用電腦制作的動畫片《玩具總動員》（Toy Story），它現(xiàn)在是全球最成功的動畫制作室。工作將是生活中的一大部分，讓自己真正滿意的唯一辦法，是做自己認(rèn)為是有意義的工作；做有意義的工作的唯一辦法，是熱愛自己的工作?！蔽矣涀×诉@句話，從那時(shí)起，33 年過去了，我每天早晨都對著鏡子自問: “假如今天是生命的最后一天，我還會去做今天要做的事嗎？”如果一連許多天我的回答都是“不”，我知道自己應(yīng)該有所改變了。也就是說，把今后十年要跟孩子們說的事情在這幾個(gè)月內(nèi)囑咐完；也就是說，把一切都安排妥當(dāng)，盡可能不給家人留麻煩；也就是說，去跟大家訣別。然而，死亡是我們共同的歸宿，沒人能擺脫。最主要的是，要有跟著自己感覺和直覺走的勇氣。那是 20 世紀(jì) 70 年代中期，我也就是你們現(xiàn)在的年紀(jì)。ve ever gotten to a college I want to tell you three stories from my 39。 rooms, I returned coke bottles for the 5162。t see it then, but it turned out that getting fired

所以我決定去參加這個(gè)課程，去學(xué)學(xué)怎樣寫出漂亮的美術(shù)字。因 為Windows只是照抄了Mac，所以現(xiàn)在個(gè)人電腦才能有現(xiàn)在這么美妙的字型。我們工作得很努力, 十年之后, 這個(gè)公司從那兩個(gè)車庫中的窮小子發(fā)展到了超過四千名的雇員、價(jià)值超過二十億的大公司。在這么多人目光下我被炒了。我被驅(qū)逐了，但是我仍然鐘愛我所做的事情。我們在NeXT發(fā)展的技術(shù)在Apple的今天的復(fù)興之中發(fā)揮了關(guān)鍵的作用。對于工作是如此，對于你的愛人也是如此。從那時(shí)開始,過了33 年，我在每天早晨都會對著鏡子問自己:“如果今天是我生命中的最后一天, 你會不會完成你今天想做的事情呢？”當(dāng)答案連續(xù)多天是“No”的時(shí)候, 我知道自己需要改變某些事情了。我在早晨七點(diǎn)半做了一個(gè)檢查, 檢查清楚的顯示在我的胰腺有一個(gè)腫瘤。那是我最接近死亡的時(shí)候, 我希望這也是以后的幾十年最接近的一次。我很抱歉這很戲劇性, 但是這十分的真實(shí)。有點(diǎn)像用軟皮包裝的Google, 在Google出現(xiàn)三十五年之前：這是理想主義的，其中有許多靈巧的工具和偉大的想法。ve ever gotten to a college I want to tell you three stories from my 39。 rooms, I returned coke bottles for the
