This is the short note that I have taken after watching Randy Pausch - Last Lecture : Achieving Your Childhood Dreams
a) Never give up
b) How to Get People to Help you -
- You can’t get there alone, and I believe in Karma
- Tell the truth
- Be earnest
- Apologize when you screw up
- Focus on others, not yourself
c) Don’t bail; the best gold is at the bottom of barrels of crap
d) Brick walls let us show our dedication - it’s there for us to show how determination are we to get through the walls
e) Get a feedback loop, and listen to it
f) Show gratitude
g) Don’t complain, just work harder (work hard)
h) Be good at something; it makes you valuable
i) Find the best in everybody; no matter how you have to wait for them to show it
j) Be prepared : “Luck” is where preparation meets opportunity
k) It’s not about how to achieve your dreams, it’s about how you lead your life
l) If you lead your life the right way, the karma will take care by itself, dreams will come to you
