【正文】 ，用來避開擔(dān)心失去某些東西的陷阱。提醒自己就要死了是我遇見的最大的幫助，幫我作了生命中的大決定。這句話給我留下了深刻的印象。我的第三個(gè)故事關(guān)于死亡。就像任何真誠 的關(guān)系，隨著時(shí)間的流逝，只會越來越緊密。如果你還沒有找到，那么就繼續(xù)找，不要停。你必須去找你熱愛的東西，對工作如此，對你的愛人也是這樣的。不要喪失信心。這個(gè)藥的味道太糟了，但是我想病人需要它。我們在NeXT開發(fā)的技術(shù)在蘋果的復(fù)興中起了核心作用，另外勞琳和我組建了一個(gè)幸福的家庭。Pixar出品了世界第一個(gè)電腦動(dòng)畫電影：“玩具總動(dòng)員”，現(xiàn)在它已經(jīng)是世界最成功的動(dòng)畫制作工作室了。這讓我感覺如此自由，進(jìn)入一生中最有創(chuàng)造力的階段。當(dāng)時(shí)我沒有看出來，但事實(shí)證明“被蘋果開除”是發(fā)生在我身上最好的事。我被逐了，但我仍愛著。有些東西在呼喚我：我還愛著我從事的行業(yè)。我與戴維德帕珂德和鮑勃諾埃斯見面，試圖為這徹頭徹尾的失敗道歉。一開始的幾個(gè)月我真的不知道該干什么。于是，在我三十歲的時(shí)候，我出局了，很公開地出局了。你怎么可能被一個(gè)親手創(chuàng)立的公司解雇？事情是這樣的，在公司成長期間，雇傭了一個(gè)我們認(rèn)為非常聰明，可以和我一起經(jīng)營公司的人。我們工作得很努力，十年后，蘋果公司成長為擁有四千名員工，價(jià)值二十億的大公司。很早就發(fā)現(xiàn)自己喜歡做的事情。第二個(gè)故事是關(guān)于愛與失的。所以你必須相信，那些點(diǎn)點(diǎn)滴滴，會在你未來的生命里，以某種方式串聯(lián)起來。不管你現(xiàn)在學(xué)習(xí)的對于將來有沒有用，興趣也好，應(yīng)用也好，十年之后再回頭看，兩者之間關(guān)系就非常、非常清楚了。要不是退了學(xué)，我決不會碰巧選了這門書法課，個(gè)人電腦也可能不會有現(xiàn)在這些漂亮的版式了。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。于是，我們把這些東西全都設(shè)計(jì)進(jìn)了計(jì)算機(jī)中。當(dāng)時(shí)我并不指望書法在以后的生活中能有什么實(shí)用價(jià)值。由于我已退學(xué)，不用修那些必修課，我決定選一門書法課上上。當(dāng)時(shí)的里得大學(xué)提供可能是全國最好的書法指導(dǎo)。能夠遵循自己的好奇和直覺前行后來被證明是多么的珍貴。為了吃飯，我收集五分一個(gè)的舊可樂瓶，每個(gè)星期天晚步行七英里到哈爾克里什納廟里改善一下一周的伙食。事情并不那么美好。一開始非常嚇人，但回憶起來，這卻是我一生中作的最好的決定之一。我看不出自己以后要做什么，也不曉得大學(xué)會怎樣幫我指點(diǎn)津，而我卻在花銷父母一生的積蓄。十七年后，我上大學(xué)了，但是我很無知地選了一所差不多和斯坦福一樣貴的校學(xué)，幾乎花掉我那藍(lán)領(lǐng)階層養(yǎng)父母一生的積蓄。幾個(gè)月后，我的養(yǎng)父母保證會讓我上大學(xué)，她妥協(xié)了。然后我的排在收養(yǎng)人名單中的養(yǎng)父母在一個(gè)深夜接到電話，“很意外，我們多了一個(gè)男嬰，你們要嗎？”“當(dāng)然要！”但是我的生母后來又發(fā)現(xiàn)我的養(yǎng)母沒有大學(xué)畢業(yè)，養(yǎng)父連高中都沒有畢業(yè)。她有一個(gè)很強(qiáng)烈的信仰，認(rèn)為我應(yīng)該被一個(gè)大學(xué)畢業(yè)生家庭收養(yǎng)。為何我要選擇退學(xué)呢？這還得從我出生之前說起。第一個(gè)故事，如何串連生命中的點(diǎn)滴。今天，我想告訴大家來自我生活的三個(gè)故事。很榮幸能和你們，來自世界最好大學(xué)之一的畢業(yè)生們，一塊兒參加畢業(yè)典禮。Thank you all very 。這也是我一直想做到的。那是他們停刊前的告別辭。最后一期的封底上是一張清晨鄉(xiāng)間小路的照片，就是那種愛冒險(xiǎn)的人等在那兒搭便車的那種小路。Stewart and his team put out several issues of The Whole Earth Catalog, and then when it had run its course, they put out a final was the mid1970s, and I was your the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road, the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so it were the words: “Stay Foolish.” It was their farewell message as they signed I have always wished that for now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for 《全球概覽》，到最后辦不下去時(shí)，他們出了最后一期。它就像一種紙質(zhì)的 Google，卻比 Google 早問世了 35 年。他用詩一般的語言把刊物辦得生動(dòng)活潑。S226。When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth Catalog, which was one of the bibles of my was created by a fellow named Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetic was in the late 196039。最主要的是，要有跟著自己感覺和直覺走的勇氣。不要囿于成見，那是在按照別人設(shè)想的結(jié)果而活。t let the noise of others39。t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people39。t waste it living someone else39。對不起，話說得太過分了，不過這是千真萬確的。它推進(jìn)生命的變遷，舊的不去，新的不來。然而，死亡是我們共同的歸宿，沒人能擺脫。有了這次經(jīng)歷之后，現(xiàn)在我可以更加實(shí)在地和你們談?wù)撍劳觯皇羌兇饧埳险劚?，那就? 誰都不愿意死。t want to die to get yet death is the destination we all one has ever escaped that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of is Life39。This was the closest I39。當(dāng)時(shí)我用了麻醉劑，陪在一旁的妻子后來告訴我，醫(yī)生在顯微鏡里看了細(xì)胞之后叫了起來，原來這是一種少見的可以通過外科手術(shù)治愈的惡性腫瘤。m fine ，我的腦子一直沒離開這個(gè)診斷。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。那天早上七點(diǎn)半，我做了一次掃描檢查，結(jié)果清楚地表明我的胰腺上長了一個(gè)瘤子，可那時(shí)我連胰腺是什么還不知道呢！醫(yī)生告訴我說，幾乎可以確診這是一種無法治愈的惡性腫瘤，我最多還能活 3 到 6 個(gè)月。s code for prepare to means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you39。About a year ago I was diagnosed with had a scan at 7:30 in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my didn39。記住自己隨時(shí)都會死去，這是我所知道的防止患得患失的最好方法。t know what to do for a few felt that I had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs downthese things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to are already is no reason not to follow your ，記住生命隨時(shí)都有可能結(jié)束。我成年后的整個(gè)生活重心都沒有了，這使我心力交瘁。可是，隨后我倆對公司前景的看法開始出現(xiàn)分歧，最后我倆反目了。你怎么會被自己辦的公司解雇呢？是這樣，隨著蘋果公司越做越大，我們聘了一位我認(rèn)為非常有才華的人與我一道管理公司。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。我在 20 歲時(shí)和沃茲（Woz，蘋果公司創(chuàng)始人之一 Wozon 的昵稱─譯注）在我父母的車庫里辦起了蘋果公司。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 。你們必須信賴某些東西─直覺、歸宿、生命，還有業(yè)力，等等。you can only connect them looking you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my ；只有回頭看時(shí)，才會發(fā)現(xiàn)它們之間的關(guān)系。Again, you can39。當(dāng)然，我在大學(xué)里不可能從這一點(diǎn)上看到它與將來的關(guān)系。要不是 Windows 照搬了 Macintosh，個(gè)人電腦可能不會有這些字體和字號。這是第一臺有這么漂亮的文字版式的計(jì)算機(jī)。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。這門課太棒了，既有歷史價(jià)值，又有藝術(shù)造詣，這一點(diǎn)科學(xué)就做不到，而我覺得它妙不可言。當(dāng)時(shí)我已經(jīng)退學(xué)，不用正常上課，所以我決定選一門書法課，學(xué)學(xué)怎么寫好字。t capture, and I found it ，里德學(xué)院的書法課大概是全國最好的。我給大家舉個(gè)例子:Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the the campus every poster, every label on every drawer, was beautifully hand I had dropped out and didn39。我喜歡這樣。我去退還可樂瓶，用那五分錢的押金來買吃的。 deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna loved much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later me give you one example:那些日子一點(diǎn)兒都不浪漫。t have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends39。It wasn39。當(dāng)年做出這個(gè)決定時(shí)心里直打鼓，但現(xiàn)在回想起來，這還真是我有生以來做出的最好的決定之一。這時(shí)，我就要花光父母一輩子節(jié)省下來的錢了。讀了六個(gè)月后，我卻看不出上學(xué)有什么意義。t interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked ，我真的進(jìn)了大學(xué)。 savings were being spent on my college six months, I couldn39。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)。就這樣，我的養(yǎng)父母─當(dāng)時(shí)他們還在登記冊上排隊(duì)等著呢─半夜三更接到一個(gè)電話: “我們這兒有一個(gè)沒人要的男嬰，你們要么？”“當(dāng)然要”他們回答。她非常希望收養(yǎng)我的是具有大學(xué)學(xué)歷的人，所以把一切都安排好了，我一出生就交給一對律師夫婦收養(yǎng)。do you want him?” They said: “Of course.” My biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father had never graduated
