Steve Jobs' Commencement Speech at Stanford, 2005

One of the last things I bothered printing was a transcript of this. http://news-service.stanford.edu/news/2005/june15/jobs-06150...

"Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking"

I can't decide if this is good or bad advice. How do you find the fine line between being ambitious, and being arrogant?

the way I look at it, ambition is your own personal goal/view/desire (directed inward) . . . arrogance is when you push your ambitions on others (directed outward).

I've seen this multiple times but now I'm going to have to watch it again.

Thanks for posting.

loved the quote at the end. "stay hungry, stay foolish"

Here's the issue he's talking about http://www.wholeearth.com/issue-electronic-edition.php?iss=1... - it's on the back cover. This is one of the many 'last' Whole Earth Catalogs.

This is definitely one of my favorite speeches of all time. It's so inspirational, particularly for a young college student aspiring to be a great entrepreneur.

Too bad they couldn't find someone better than Anthony Kennedy for the '09 Commencement.
