Steve Jobs 1955-2011

Earlier this month the mastermind of the phenomenon that is ‘Apple’ died, leaving behind a legacy that changed the world we live in. He was a truly inspirational individual who was not afraid to think outside the box or take risks. It was precisely this attitude that brought him so much success.  Although success is something Steve had to work hard for, encountering many difficulties on the way. He gave a speech in 2005 at Stanford University where he stated that ‘sometimes life is gonna hit you in the head with a brick, don’t lose faith’. This is such a simple yet powerful message and one we should all listen to. Life isn’t that easy, and there will be ups and downs, but as Steve states you must not allow those difficult moments to allow you to lose sight of your goals and aspirations.
So the next time you endure problems or encounter situations that don’t pan out as expected, remember the road to success is never an easy one, but you can learn from the journey you take.
