"To stay hungry is to stay hungry and stay awake and sharp when we are not hungry. In modern society, it is easy to have a full stomach. In the process of becoming full day by day, we tend to become dull and complacent. We should keep an insatiable state, go forward bravely, follow our inner curiosity and explore more unknowns.
Jobs, a "great innovator who made the information revolution intuitive and interesting and changed our lives", put forward such pertinent suggestions and hopes in his graduation speech because of his personal experience and sentiment.
After listening to the audio biography of Jobs on the Himalayas, I heard that the collection needs to be paid, and of course the knowledge also needs to be paid, but I prefer to buy paper books and place orders on Dangdang. I'm curious to know more about the founder of Apple. Although Jobs is far away from me, I have seen the cartoon Toy Story invested by him, and I like it very much, because he has been using his products. Up to now, my hands have never left. I know Jobs and Apple, but I don't know how Jobs built Apple. Reading the biography of Jobs in a new way and sharing Jobs with friends has become a small goal in my life.
I did my homework in advance and learned about Jobs' biography: Walter Isajiesen, the author of Jobs' Biography, is the editor-in-chief of Time magazine and the author of Einstein, Benjamin Franklin and Kissinger's Biography. From this, it is natural to understand why Jobs chose Walter to write this book. When Jobs was suffering from pancreatic cancer, he met with the author and proposed to write a book about him, which made the author a little embarrassed and puzzled. Because Jobs has been concerned about privacy protection for 20 years, why is he so open to this book? Jobs replied, "I want my children to know me. I don't always stay with them. I want them to know why and understand what I have done. " I was very moved when I saw this sentence. The father loves his children very much and hopes to be closer to them at the last moment of his life. This is the best gift left by the father to the children.
After the author expressed his opinion that it was too early to write about Jobs, Jobs met the author again. Later, Jobs' wife found Walter, and Walter learned about Jobs' physical condition. Jobs encouraged the author to tell the truth and said that he would not interfere with the contents of the book. Walter had more than 40 face-to-face conversations with Jobs in two years. Until the last moment of Jobs' life, he presented us with 600 pages of words, 49 main characters and 4 1 chapter.
I feel dizzy. These long lists alone will confuse me. Of course, the main reason that attracted me to read this biography was not only the words he said, "Stay hungry, stay dull", but also a letter Jobs wrote to his wife when he commemorated his 20th wedding anniversary: "Time flies, children are born, life has its ups and downs, but it's never bad.
