The early life

Didnt have a dorm room, so used to sleep on the floor in friends rooms Used to return coke bottles for the 5 deposits to buy food Used to walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple.

Jobs and Apple

Launch of Apple Failure of Lisa Success of Macintosh $2 billion dollar company with over 4000 employees. Fired from Apple I didnt see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.

Jobs bounces back

Advice from Steve Jobs

Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Dont lose faith. Im convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. Youve got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. 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 havent found it yet, keep looking. Dont settle. As with all matters of the heart, youll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Dont settle. Your time is limited, so dont waste it living someone elses life. Dont be trapped by dogma-which is living with the results of other peoples thinking. Dont let the noise of others opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

Conclusion

No matter how bad your failure is the only way you can come back, the only way you can survive is if you never give up. So never ever give up.
