01UndatedYour 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.Steve Jobs / quote ↗
03UndatedDon’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice.", 2005]Steve Jobs / quote ↗
04UndatedIf you live each day as it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be rightSteve Jobs / quote ↗
05UndatedI have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?" And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.Steve Jobs / quote ↗

07UndatedDon't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking.Steve Jobs / quote ↗
09UndatedAnd the only way to do great work is to love what you do.... Don't settleSteve Jobs / quote ↗
10UndatedSimple can be harder than complex: You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it’s worth it in the end because once you get there, you can move mountains.Steve Jobs / quote ↗
12UndatedGreat things in business are never done by one person,They are done by a team of peopleSteve Jobs / quote ↗

15UndatedThere’s a temptation in our networked age to think that ideas can be developed by email and iChat. That’s crazy. Creativity comes from spontaneous meetings, from random discussions. You run into someone, you ask what they’re doing, you say ‘wow,’ and soon you’re cooking up all sorts of ideas.Steve Jobs / quote ↗
16UndatedMy model for business is The Beatles. They were four guys who kept each other kind of negative tendencies in check. They balanced each other and the total was greater than the sum of the parts. That's how I see business: great things in business are never done by one person, they're done by a team of people.Steve Jobs / quote ↗
18UndatedI've never believed that they're separate. Leonardo da Vinci was a great artist and a great scientist. Michelangelo knew a tremendous amount about how to cut stone at the quarry. The finest dozen computer scientists I know are all musicians. Some are better than others, but they all consider that an important part of their life. I don't believe that the best people in any of these fields see themselves as one branch of a forked tree. I just don't see that.People bring these things together a lot. Dr. Land at Polaroid said, "I want Polaroid to stand at the intersection of art and science," and I've never forgotten that. I think that that's possible, and I think a lot of people have tried.Steve Jobs / quote ↗
19UndatedYou’ve got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don’t settle…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.Steve Jobs / quote ↗
20UndatedRemembering 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 almost everything – all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure – these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important.Steve Jobs / quote ↗
21UndatedGod gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth.Steve Jobs / quote ↗
22UndatedI think the world’s a better place because Bill realized that his goal isn’t to be the richest guy in the cemetery, right?Steve Jobs / quote ↗
23UndatedI don't want to fail, of course. But even though I didn't know how bad things really were, I still had a lot to think about before I said yes. I had to consider the implications for Pixar, for my family, for my reputation. I decided that I didn't really care, because this is what I want to do. If I try my best and fail, well, I've tried my best.Steve Jobs / quote ↗
24UndatedLet's go invent tomorrow instead of worrying about what happened yesterday.Steve Jobs / quote ↗
