TALK SHOW EPISODE NOTESThis episode is part of our JOYFUL ART OF BUSINESS™ series wherein we explore how to combine the positive benefits of our professional endeavors (“business”) with the overall positive emotional return on our efforts (“joy”). Our episode topic is, “Steve Jobs: Legacy? Lesson? Stay Hungry/ Stay Foolish?”
Few business leaders are widely known. Even fewer receive an outpouring of emotion for their work. Fewer still are publicly mourned. Steve Jobs is one of those who left a legacy. What lessons may we learn from his journey through life? (Read about that journey at http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/22/books/steve-jobs-by-walter-isaacson-review.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0). I read the biography by Walter Isaacson (store link is below in the Show Sponsor Spotlight) when it was released and found it to be very insightful. If you are interested in business (especially entrepreneurship), I strongly advise you to read it. The link for the movie I mention in the show is also below. Read the book first. Then, only if you have some free time and only for entertainment value (as it is not a documentary), watch the fictionalized film. Steve Jobs said, “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. […] Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. 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 others' 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.” (http://news.stanford.edu/news/2005/june15/jobs-061505.html) What is your analysis? Let’s discuss! |
