Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true. 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. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. 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. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. ----------------------------------------------------------- This is the text of the Commencement address by Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple Computer and of Pixar Animation Studios, delivered on June 12, 2005.

Right now the new is you,
but someday not too long from now,
you will gradually become the old
and be cleared away.
Sorry to be so dramatic,
but it is quite true.
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.
Don't let the noise of other's opinions
drown out your own inner voice.
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.
Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.
