Reflect on his thought:
I have to say that I really enjoy the assignment on this week, because Steve Job’s speech brought me much inspiration. 'You've got to find what you love' Jobs says
“Stay hungry, stay foolish” I interpreted that life is once, but learning is endless. Never enough, just keep going and learning. Sometimes we feel sick of studying, maybe we can’t connect the dots looking forward, also can only connect them looking backwards. No matter how the future would like, we have to have the courage to follow our heart and intuition, because they somehow already know what you truly want to become. How important to find the things what we love, then we can get the confident to keep going that we love what we did.
I'm glad you find this talk helpful to you, Ting.
