For over 30 years,

have all been transformed
by none other than Steve Jobs of Apple.
Today, we talked about the fascinating journey
of one of the most loved entrepreneurs of all time
Steve Jobs
and this is his biography
Born in San Fransisco, California
his parents that were unable to care for him
Steve Jobs' early life was a struggle of identity.
He was an adopted child
raised by caring parents.
One of the early visions of his biological parents
was academic success for Steve Jobs.
However, young Steve Jobs was far from been an academic.
Despite his immense  intelligent,
he wasn't interested in schooling.
Apart from a few selected subjects,
the teenage Steve, who was raised in Mountain View,
in the 1970s was much more interested in pranking phones' computers,
creating innovative business ideas
and messing around with his close friend
Steve Wozniak.
Steve's approach to education has been explained very publicly.
He only felt that he could really learnt after he had dropped out of college.
In 1976,
when Jobs was just 21 years old,
he and his partner, Steve Wozniak
started Apple Computer.
The duo started in Steve Jobs' family garage,
funding their entrepreneurial venture
by Jobs selling his Volkswagen bus
and Wozniak selling his beloved scientific calculator.
Jobs and Wozniak are credited with revolutionising the computer industry
by democratising the technology and making machine smaller,
cheaper, intuitive and accessible to everyday consumers.
Wozniak conceived a series of user friendly personal computers
and with Jobs in charge of marketing.
Apple initially marketed the computers for $666 each.
Initial success with the Apple I,
pushed Wozniak and Jobs to create bigger and better computers.
And by the  late 1970s,
they have created what will become Apple's first big success,
the Apple II.
A high-speed business workstation
the computer was a hit in their native California,
and Jobs soon became a millionaire
from the computers' heavy sales throughout the state and country.
However, things turned sour for Jobs,
when he sought to expand Apple further
hiring former Pepsi's Chief Executive, John Sculley
to lead Apple in a new direction.
The experienced Chief Executive had no patience for
Jobs' controversial and demanding management style.
And after 2 years, they had no time for each other.
In a boardroom meeting,
Steve Jobs was fired from the company that he founded.
His dismissal at Apple, ignited a fire in Jobs.
One that burnt for the remainder of his career.
Just a year later,
he purchased a struggling animation studio
from Star Wars' mastermind, George Lucas.
It bled money for over 10 years;
money that Jobs, himself was spending on the studio
until a fantastic 1997 hits
with the movie, Toy Story.
Likewise, he created another company, and called it NeXT
with specialised high-end workstations for the business community.
However, it was a commercial failure
and NeXT bled money
until it was purchased by Apple a decade later,
bringing Steve Jobs back to the company that he built.
Over the next few years,
Jobs went from a small position at Apple
to the company's interim CEO
and eventually taking on the position full-time.
Steve Jobs' second period at Apple,
produced many of the company's more successful devices,
from the iPad, to the iMac
that Jobs led Apple went ahead of its previous milestone
and grew into the biggest company in the technology sector.
Although it took a heavy blow to set Jobs on the right path,
his experiences reflect a true genius
and it's regarded as the biggest second act in business history.
However, early in 2009
reports circulating about Jobs' weight loss.
Some predicting his health issues have returned
Jobs had responded to these concerns
by stating that he was dealing with hormone imbalance.
After nearly a year out of the spotlight,
Steve Jobs delivered a keynote address
at an invite-only Apple Event on September 9, 2009.
Later, on October 1st, 2011
Apple sadly announced that its co-founder had passed away
after battling pancreatic cancer for nearly a decade.
Steve Jobs died in Palo Alto
when he was just 56 years old.
Steve Jobs: "I was lucky.
I have found what I love to do early in life when I was 20.
The heaviness of being successful
was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again,
less sure about everything.
I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going
was that I loved what I did.
You've got to find what you love.
And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers.
Your work is going to fill a large part of your life,
and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work.
And the only way to do great work is to love what you do.
If you haven't found it yet, keep looking.
And don't settle.
Despite the cut throat competition from rival tech companies
like Google and Microsoft,
Steve Jobs make sure that none of those bother the success path for Apple
and kept working hard till the last breath
to make sure Apple remains as the top tech company in the world.
He is a true inspiration for every boarding entrepreneurs
and will remain as the hero of the tech industry.
