What are we all looking for? With so many references to Steve Jobs’ sad passing today at the relatively young age of 56, I’ve heard equally as many references to his ‘Live each day like it’s your last…’ quote. It sounds absurdly naive on the surface. Wholly impossible and/or wholly exhausting in fairly equal measure. And yet, I was considerably more taken by his own addition to that famous quote…
Love what you do. Look at yourself in the mirror each day and ask yourself if you’re going to do something you love, or if you made a difference today, no matter how small. And, if the answer becomes ‘No’ on too many occasions, it’s time to seriously contemplate a change. Life really is too short, and gets shorter by the day, to be passively avoiding doing something you love.
