The Amazing Life Lessons I Learned From Steve Jobs’ Biography – Part 1
If this doesn’t motivate you, nothing else will
The one thing that amazed me this week was how I immediately felt more energized and motivated after watching this video about Steve Jobs’ biography, with over 30 million views.
I made some notes while watching the video and there were 3 story’s from Steve Jobs’ life that really got to me.
Today I’m sharing the first story. I promiss to keep it short.
The first story is about connecting the dots.

So why did he drop out?
It started before he was born. His biological mother was a young, unwed graduate student, and she decided to put Steve up for adoption.
She felt very strongly that he should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for him to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife. Except that when he popped out, they decided at the very last minute they wanted a girl.
So his parents, who are on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night…
