For the past 33 years, I 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 . . . 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. Remembering that
you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of
thinking you have something to lose. —STEVE JOBS, college
dropout and CEO of Apple Computer, Stanford University
Commencement, 2005
