3 Important Lessons From Steve Jobs, the movie

image

Stand for something meaningful. 

Not something you think others would find meaningful, but what YOU find meaningful.

If you don’t know what to stand for, write down a list of things you want to be your purpose in life.

While you are writing the list, listen to the voice in the back of your head that you have abandoned because of fear of being ridiculed.

That voice is telling you your purpose. Embrace it or you will regret it.

☤         ☤         ☤

Take action now.

Ignore everything that stands in your way.

☤         ☤         ☤

Purpose over perfection.

Confident body language, grooming and detailed business plans is NOTHING compared to a heartfelt “why”.
