Steve Jobs Died a
billionaire at age 56. This is his final essay:
I reached
the pinnacle of success in the business world. In some
others' eyes, my life is the epitome of success.
However, aside from work, I have little joy. In the
end, my wealth is only a fact of life that I am accustomed
to. At this moment, lying on my bed and recalling my
life, I realize that all the recognition and wealth that I
took so much pride in have paled and become meaningless in
the face of my death.
You can employ someone to drive the
car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone
bear your sickness for you. Material things lost can
be found or replaced. But there is one thing that can
never be found when it's lost - Life. Whichever
stage in life you are in right now, with time, you will face
the day when the curtain comes down.
Treasure
love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your
friends. Treat yourself well and cherish others. As we
grow older, and hopefully wiser, we realize that a $300 or a
$30 watch both tell the same time. You will realize
that your true inner happiness does not come from the
material things of this world. Whether you fly first
class or economy, if the plane goes down - you go down with
it.
Therefore, I hope you realize, when
you have mates, buddies and old friends, brothers and
sisters, who you chat with, laugh with, talk with, have sing
songs with, talk about north-south-east-west or heaven and
earth, that is true happiness! Don't educate your
children to be rich. Educate them to be happy.
So when they grow up they will know the value of things and
not the price. Eat your food as your medicine,
otherwise you have to eat medicine as your food.
The One who
loves you will never leave you for another because, even if
there are 100 reasons to give up, he or she will find a
reason to hold on. There is a big difference between a human
being and being human. Only a few really understand
it. You are loved when you are born. You will be
loved when you die. In between, you have to
manage!
The six best doctors in the world
are sunlight, rest, exercise, diet, self-confidence and
friends. Maintain them in all stages and enjoy a
healthy life."
