How to Think Like Steve Jobs (2013) by Daniel Smith
A short but concise book
about the amazing life of a genius: Steve
Jobs. A visionary world class. Never compromising and always striving for
excellence. Settling with nothing except the best and insanely great. Jobs, a
man of excellent taste in technology, art, music and probably life… maybe. For
sure he love keeping things simple as possible but remarkable. Held more than
300 patents under his name and in group.
I particularly love the
dedicated section of this book in which the author has mentioned about specific
details like Steve's mentors, books, his past works and so on. This book is
divided into 2 parts: #1 Get to the top, and #2 Stay at the top. A peek at Steve bookshelf is confirming that he
was a highly spiritual and diet conscious. He can be an ‘asshole’ sometimes,
but compare to his great achievements… I say, his assholeness can be
discounted. An excellent Entrepreneur. One of our greatest modern innovators.
He called himself a discoverer. Steve Jobs is one of my favourite persons.
Some of his great quotes
in this book:
“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.”
"You can't connect the dots looking forward; you
can only connect them looking backwards. 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. This approach has never let me down, and it has
made all the difference in my life.”
“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. And most important, have the courage to follow
your heart and intuition.”
Simple, good book
THINK BIG.
START SMALL. GO DEEP.
