Steve Jobs advice for young people who
2
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:16,280
want to be rich about 11 years ago I
3
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:18,170
announced my parents and family members
4
00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:21,230
that will not continue with my schooling
5
00:00:18,170 --> 00:00:24,890
they wanted me to have degrees and live
6
00:00:21,230 --> 00:00:28,220
a normal life to me normal is boring I
7
00:00:24,890 --> 00:00:31,519
wanted an exciting life I wanted to dear
8
00:00:28,220 --> 00:00:34,550
life try things make mistakes and fail
9
00:00:31,519 --> 00:00:36,950
I do want a life that pay bills I wanted
10
00:00:34,550 --> 00:00:39,199
a life of purpose and to me I was
11
00:00:36,950 --> 00:00:43,010
already getting old I could no longer
12
00:00:39,199 --> 00:00:45,680
endure the boring classrooms so I forego
13
00:00:43,010 --> 00:00:47,570
school in this video I'll tell you more
14
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:49,489
of that story and I'll share with you
15
00:00:47,570 --> 00:00:51,859
the one important advice from Steve Jobs
16
00:00:49,489 --> 00:00:52,399
which I believe can change your life
17
00:00:51,859 --> 00:00:54,649

videos like this here's the thing Steve
21
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:06,020
Jobs said don't wait do something when
22
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:08,780
you're young when you have nothing to
23
00:01:06,020 --> 00:01:12,080
lose this is probably the most valuable
24
00:01:08,780 --> 00:01:14,690
advice Steve Jobs ever gave because if
25
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:20,590
you truly follow this advice your life
26
00:01:14,690 --> 00:01:23,810
cannot be the same the world of WETA
27
00:01:20,590 --> 00:01:25,400
this last weekend I and my wife went to
28
00:01:23,810 --> 00:01:27,800
spend some time with one of my old
29
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:30,800
friends as me and my friends were
30
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:33,290
talking he told me you see I didn't
31
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:36,380
forget our last discussion I'm making my
32
00:01:33,290 --> 00:01:38,150
plans our last discussion was about his
33
00:01:36,380 --> 00:01:40,220
dream of starting his own business and
34
00:01:38,150 --> 00:01:44,180
it is a good thing that he's making the
35
00:01:40,220 --> 00:01:46,850
plan right no he has been making the
36
00:01:44,180 --> 00:01:47,540
same plan for more than one decade not
37
00:01:46,850 --> 00:01:49,700
just him
38
00:01:47,540 --> 00:01:51,920
my general experience about most people
39
00:01:49,700 --> 00:01:54,500
convinces me that the world is filled
40
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:56,930
with the dreamers and waiters most
41
00:01:54,500 --> 00:02:00,950
people simply do two things they dream
42
00:01:56,930 --> 00:02:03,140
and they wait don't wait do something
43
00:02:00,950 --> 00:02:05,480
when you are young when you have nothing
44
00:02:03,140 --> 00:02:07,760
to lose waiting is the worst thing that
45
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:10,429
can happen to you because Wheaton will
46
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:12,830
keep you poor but why is waiting a good
47
00:02:10,429 --> 00:02:15,109
idea for most people the only reason I
48
00:02:12,830 --> 00:02:17,359
can think of which makes us want to wait
49
00:02:15,109 --> 00:02:19,130
is because we think that tomorrow will
50
00:02:17,359 --> 00:02:21,890
give us better resources
51
00:02:19,130 --> 00:02:24,200
well who we are wrong because tomorrow
52
00:02:21,890 --> 00:02:30,110
will only make our dreams more difficult
53
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:32,600
to pursue the fear of my age I only I
54
00:02:30,110 --> 00:02:34,490
told you my personal story how I ran
55
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:37,010
away from school without any degrees
56
00:02:34,490 --> 00:02:39,770
well I didn't leave school because I
57
00:02:37,010 --> 00:02:42,350
hate school though I hate school I was
58
00:02:39,770 --> 00:02:44,300
having a lot of fun in school so I might
59
00:02:42,350 --> 00:02:47,990
never have left if not for the fear of
60
00:02:44,300 --> 00:02:49,910
my age I was 21 at that time and my
61
00:02:47,990 --> 00:02:51,980
parents they wanted me to get all these
62
00:02:49,910 --> 00:02:54,470
degrees that will help me to become a
63
00:02:51,980 --> 00:02:57,440
great employee meaning that I have to
64
00:02:54,470 --> 00:03:01,070
get out of the school walls by age 26 or
65
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:03,320
27 to me that was going to be Hellfire
66
00:03:01,070 --> 00:03:06,410
because by this time I was already
67
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:08,540
having fear about my age this fear was
68
00:03:06,410 --> 00:03:10,460
informed by the fact that I know it
69
00:03:08,540 --> 00:03:13,400
always take a lot of time to achieve
70
00:03:10,460 --> 00:03:15,020
anything worthwhile since when I was a
71
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:17,210
teenager I've always knew that
72
00:03:15,020 --> 00:03:19,700
everything what while takes a lot of
73
00:03:17,210 --> 00:03:21,680
time so I knew that if I truly wanted to
74
00:03:19,700 --> 00:03:24,320
achieve meaningful success in life I
75
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:26,660
have to start early so that I could
76
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:29,450
invest as many years as possible to my
77
00:03:26,660 --> 00:03:31,460
dreams not only did I know that I had to
78
00:03:29,450 --> 00:03:33,740
start early I also knew that had to
79
00:03:31,460 --> 00:03:36,710
forego most things that are wasting my
80
00:03:33,740 --> 00:03:38,780
time you see time is the only true gift
81
00:03:36,710 --> 00:03:41,000
of life and it doesn't matter how early
82
00:03:38,780 --> 00:03:42,650
you start as long as you let your time
83
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:45,200
we wasted in little things that don't
84
00:03:42,650 --> 00:03:46,730
matter to your dreams you still not get
85
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:49,670
what you want out of life
86
00:03:46,730 --> 00:03:53,900
don't wait do something when you are
87
00:03:49,670 --> 00:03:57,440
young when you have nothing to use the
88
00:03:53,900 --> 00:04:00,130
ignorant and youthfulness to succeed in
89
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:03,230
life you need brain and bones
90
00:04:00,130 --> 00:04:06,530
unfortunately the young have bones but
91
00:04:03,230 --> 00:04:10,370
lack brains while the old have brain but
92
00:04:06,530 --> 00:04:12,760
lack bones by brain I mean wisdom by
93
00:04:10,370 --> 00:04:15,470
bones I mean physical strength and time
94
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:18,320
most young people lack wisdom about life
95
00:04:15,470 --> 00:04:21,260
unfortunately by the time they get such
96
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:24,830
wisdom they are usually in a late 30s or
97
00:04:21,260 --> 00:04:27,320
even mid 40s ignorance and youthfulness
98
00:04:24,830 --> 00:04:28,940
often go together and one major thing
99
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:31,630
young people often get wrong is that
100
00:04:28,940 --> 00:04:33,020
they think they have something to lose
101
00:04:31,630 --> 00:04:34,879
seriously
102
00:04:33,020 --> 00:04:38,090
this will be funny to you if you are
103
00:04:34,879 --> 00:04:40,220
sixty if you are 60 and you meet a 21
104
00:04:38,090 --> 00:04:42,590
year old man who is afraid of pursuing
105
00:04:40,220 --> 00:04:45,349
his dream you one doubt what he has to
106
00:04:42,590 --> 00:04:47,860
lose listen to this if you are in your
107
00:04:45,349 --> 00:04:50,659
twenties you have nothing to lose I mean
108
00:04:47,860 --> 00:04:52,940
nothing I was speaking with a group of
109
00:04:50,659 --> 00:04:55,729
people some weeks ago and one woman
110
00:04:52,940 --> 00:04:57,800
stood up to ask me a question she wanted
111
00:04:55,729 --> 00:05:01,250
to know how anyone could possibly do
112
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:03,889
what I did with my life I told her well
113
00:05:01,250 --> 00:05:07,250
I did it when I had nothing to lose I
114
00:05:03,889 --> 00:05:10,280
was only 21 when I started out as a
115
00:05:07,250 --> 00:05:13,370
full-time entrepreneur I had no money
116
00:05:10,280 --> 00:05:15,680
but I had wisdom and bones I went around
117
00:05:13,370 --> 00:05:18,889
hanging with friends and wearing a shoe
118
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:21,229
for 3 to 4 years I took all the risk I
119
00:05:18,889 --> 00:05:23,780
could ever take and yet everything I
120
00:05:21,229 --> 00:05:25,969
could possibly dear many people were
121
00:05:23,780 --> 00:05:28,550
cautioning me they wanted me to take it
122
00:05:25,969 --> 00:05:31,190
easy they wanted me to calm down they
123
00:05:28,550 --> 00:05:35,300
wanted me to get degrees and get jobs so
124
00:05:31,190 --> 00:05:37,280
I could have security security what do
125
00:05:35,300 --> 00:05:40,490
you need any security for when you are
126
00:05:37,280 --> 00:05:43,400
23 what do you need security for when
127
00:05:40,490 --> 00:05:45,710
you are 27 now listen to me
128
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:48,889
if you are still young you have got
129
00:05:45,710 --> 00:05:50,750
nothing to lose absolutely nothing the
130
00:05:48,889 --> 00:05:52,819
worst that can happen to you is failure
131
00:05:50,750 --> 00:05:55,009
the worst that can happen to you is your
132
00:05:52,819 --> 00:05:57,680
ejections the worst that can happen to
133
00:05:55,009 --> 00:06:00,139
you is criticism of the people who don't
134
00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:02,690
know what you know let not the voice of
135
00:06:00,139 --> 00:06:05,060
other people kill your dream allow not
136
00:06:02,690 --> 00:06:08,870
their fears to make you want security
137
00:06:05,060 --> 00:06:11,090
you don't need security you need success
138
00:06:08,870 --> 00:06:14,419
you don't need security you need
139
00:06:11,090 --> 00:06:18,620
progress you don't need security you
140
00:06:14,419 --> 00:06:21,800
need solution to your poverty and follow
141
00:06:18,620 --> 00:06:23,750
older people now if you are old you
142
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:27,199
probably have wasted the most precious
143
00:06:23,750 --> 00:06:29,120
time of your life your twenties now you
144
00:06:27,199 --> 00:06:31,880
probably have a family and a lot of
145
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:34,279
bills but all these are not your biggest
146
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:37,789
problem let me tell you your biggest
147
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:40,520
problem the poison you've eaten this is
148
00:06:37,789 --> 00:06:43,279
what I mean when we were born we are
149
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:45,050
usually very powerful individuals we
150
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,410
dream dreams and we believe we can
151
00:06:45,050 --> 00:06:49,170
achieve our dreams
152
00:06:46,410 --> 00:06:50,940
however in our teenage years we started
153
00:06:49,170 --> 00:06:53,220
noticing that the world around us is
154
00:06:50,940 --> 00:06:55,830
different we started hearing people
155
00:06:53,220 --> 00:06:57,390
telling us to take life easy we started
156
00:06:55,830 --> 00:06:59,550
hearing people telling us that dreams
157
00:06:57,390 --> 00:07:03,150
are risky and trying them may be the end
158
00:06:59,550 --> 00:07:05,400
of our life in our 20s we started seeing
159
00:07:03,150 --> 00:07:08,010
that the best way to leave is to follow
160
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:10,410
the common route we noticed that certain
161
00:07:08,010 --> 00:07:14,130
people in our community simply studied
162
00:07:10,410 --> 00:07:16,260
hard got good grades and good jobs since
163
00:07:14,130 --> 00:07:18,960
we see these people with new cars and
164
00:07:16,260 --> 00:07:21,090
big homes something in us tells us that
165
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,130
it's better to live a normal life than
166
00:07:21,090 --> 00:07:25,110
to take risks
167
00:07:22,130 --> 00:07:27,030
why trying something difficult when we
168
00:07:25,110 --> 00:07:30,390
can just obey the societal laws and
169
00:07:27,030 --> 00:07:33,150
achieve what society calls success now
170
00:07:30,390 --> 00:07:35,490
the older we get the less we want to try
171
00:07:33,150 --> 00:07:38,370
something different or risky and that's
172
00:07:35,490 --> 00:07:40,260
the biggest problem with being old the
173
00:07:38,370 --> 00:07:43,380
problem is not your age it doesn't
174
00:07:40,260 --> 00:07:45,870
matter whether you are 45 or 57 the
175
00:07:43,380 --> 00:07:47,730
problem is in your mindset because if
176
00:07:45,870 --> 00:07:50,550
you are like most 50 year olds out there
177
00:07:47,730 --> 00:07:52,410
you've probably given up on life you've
178
00:07:50,550 --> 00:07:54,540
probably become normal and you've
179
00:07:52,410 --> 00:07:57,690
probably learned how to avoid pains and
180
00:07:54,540 --> 00:08:00,840
failures that's where the problem lies
181
00:07:57,690 --> 00:08:05,730
don't wait do something when you are
182
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:09,090
young when you have nothing to lose here
183
00:08:05,730 --> 00:08:10,950
are my last words if you are young don't
