Hello friends my name is Amol Ujagare & you are watching me on my youtube channel
This is my first youtube video in marathi
the reason for this video is that today is 24 feb. , Birthday of Steve Jobs the co founder of apple company
Steve jobs was born on 24 feb 1955
So today in order to give him a tribute i am trying to recollect some of his memories , I am making this video
One of his speech in standford university is very popular
Today any book written on his biography cant be completed without this speech
the same speech I am going to present you in marathi.
So lets see what steve jobs said in his speech
Thank you. I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world.
I never graduated from college.
Truth be told, this is the closest I’ve ever gotten to a college graduation.
Today I want to tell you three stories from my life. That’s it. No big deal. Just three stories.
The first story is about connecting the dots.
I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit.
So why did I drop out?
It started before I was born.
My biological mother was a young, unwed college graduate student
and she decided to put me up for adoption.
so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife.
Except that when I popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl.
So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking:
“We have an unexpected baby boy; do you want him?”
They said: “Of course.”
My biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college
and that my father had never graduated from high school.
She refused to sign the final adoption papers.
She only relented a few months later when my parents promised that I would someday go to college.
and in this way my life started
And 17 years later I did go to college. But I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford,
I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out.
And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life.
So I decided to drop out
I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months,
It wasn’t all romantic.
I didn’t have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends’ rooms
I returned Coke bottles for the 5¢ deposits to buy food with
and I would walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple.
I loved it. Since at least once in a week i used to get full meal
And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on.
at that time reed college was the most beautiful place
at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country.
calligraphy means a kind of good hand written characters
about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great.
I learned about serif and sans serif typefaces
It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can’t capture
I already decided to learn this seriously & I learnt
None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life.
But 10 years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back to me. And we designed it all into the Mac.
It was the first computer with beautiful typography.
If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts
And since Windows just copied the Mac, it’s likely that no personal computer would have them.
Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college.
But it was very, very clear looking backward 10 years later.
you can’t connect the dots looking forward
you can only connect them looking backward
So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.
You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever.
Believing this will help you to make courage to listen to your inner voice
even at that time when you are going on very different path
My second story is about love and loss.
Woz and I started Apple in my parents’ garage when I was 20.
We worked hard, and in 10 years Apple had grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion company with over 4,000 employees.
We had just released our finest creation — the Macintosh — a year earlier
and I had just turned 30. And then I got fired
How can you get fired from a company you started?
Well, as Apple grew we hired someone who I thought was very talented to run the company with me
and for the first year or so things went well. But then our visions of the future began to diverge and eventually we had a falling out.
gradually things went worse
When we did, our Board of Directors sided with him.
So at 30 I was out. And very publicly out
What had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating.
I really didn’t know what to do for a few months
It was horible , sometimes I thought to leave Valley
I felt that I had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down , that I had dropped the baton as it was being passed to me
I met with David Packard and Bob Noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly
I was a very public failure
But something slowly began to dawn on me — I still loved what I did.
and i am loving my work
so I kept working on that
The turn of events at Apple had not changed that one bit. I had been rejected, but I was still in love. And so I decided to start over.
I didn’t see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me.
The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again
less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.
During the next five years, I started a company named Pixar, another company named  NeXT
During that I fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife
Pixar went on to create the world’s first computer animated feature film, Toy Story
And is now the most successful animation studio in the world.
In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought NeXT, I returned to Apple
and the technology we developed at NeXT is at the heart of Apple’s current renaissance
And Laurene and I have a wonderful family together.
I’m pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn’t been fired from Apple.
It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it
Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don’t lose faith
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
Like that we need to find that work that we enjoy doing it
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. Don’t settle.
As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it
And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on
So keep looking until you find it. Don’t settle.
My third story is about death.
When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: “If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you’ll most certainly be right.”
It made an impression on me
and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself:
“If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?”
And whenever the answer has been “No” for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.
Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life.
Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure — these things just fall away in the face of death
leaving only what is truly important.
Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose
You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.
About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer.
I had a scan at 7:30 in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas.
I didn’t even know what a pancreas was
The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that I should expect to live no longer than three to four months
My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctor’s code for prepare to die
It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you’d have the next 10 years
It means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family
It means to say your goodbyes.
I lived with that diagnosis all day.
where they stuck an endoscope down my throat, through my stomach and into my intestines put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells from the tumor
I was sedated, but my wife, who was there, told me that
when they viewed the cells under a microscope the doctors started crying
because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery.
I had the surgery and I’m fine now.
This was the closest I’ve been to facing death, and I hope it’s the closest I get for a few more decades.
Having lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept:
No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there.
And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it
And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life
It is Life’s change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you
but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away
Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.
Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life
Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking
Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice.
They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth Catalog, which was one of the bibles of my generation
It was sort of like Google in paperback form
This was in the late 1960s, before personal computers and desktop publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors and Polaroid cameras
Stewart and his team put out several issues of The Whole Earth Catalog, and then when it had run its course, they put out a final issue
On the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road
the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous
Beneath it were the words: “Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.” It was their farewell message as they signed off. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish
And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.
Thank you all very much
Steve jobs died on 5 october 2011 due to  pancreatic cancer
