“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 almosteverything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear ofembarrassment 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. … Stay hungry. Stay foolish.”
– Steve Jobs, Stanford University commencement address, June 2005.
