A famous speech from the Stanford Commencement in 2005 by Steve Jobs
This is just plain awesome. The way he conveys his message, the real-life examples he presents, the energy contained in the words he lays out,,,,, just impressive..
この卒業式スピーチの存在は以前から認識していて、Jobsが発した有名なフレーズをいくつか聞いたことがあったのだが、改めて全体を通して見ると、感動。とりえあず全国の高校生、大学生にこのスピーチを聞かせてあげたい。最近疲れたときに何度も繰り返しこのスピーチを聞いています。。
このスピーチを聞いて、思わずうずうずして何かアクションを起こしたいと思ったり、自分の中にエネルギーが満ち溢れたりしてこない人は、恐らく僕と価値観が合わないと思います。。
