chanced upon this video “Randy Pausch Last Lecture: Achieving Your Childhood Dreams”. the greatest takeaway for me personally is these statements that appear towards the end of the lecture:
“It’s not about how you achieve your dreams, it’s about how you lead your life. If you lead your life the right way, the karma will take care of itself, and your dreams will come to you.”
life’s not all 一帆风顺, things more often than not go the way we least intended or not intended at all. that is life, and how one LEADS one’s life decide how your life will eventually turn out. if we choose to feel miserable, we’ll be miserable; if we choose to live life to its fullest till the last day like the cancer striken Dr Pausch. 就真正可以说不枉此生了。
here’s another ‘follow up’ video if u’re interested to catch:
enjoy n be inspired too (:
btw, he’s the man behind Alice, a software to teach children programming in the fun way and this software would allow “millions of kids having fun”.
