  9. I didn't watch the video but I still manage to get only 1 question wrong��. It's because I have read Steve Job's autobiography 5 times already. Steve jobs is a role model and inspiration for the current generation to learn to follow their heart while they are thinking the path in their life.

  11. "Your time is limited, so don't waste your time" Your time is limited that's why you should do better things, share what you have, make quality time with others, and most especially spread the love 💕

  13. This video is so inspirational!! It proves that sometimes life is going to bring you down, but you always have to keep your head high and never give up. I really enjoyed the death part, it gave me chills because what Steve Jobs said is so true. I believe we should all follow his example of following your heart because like he said, we're all going to die so why not make the best of our lives?
