Lecture of a Lifetime
Sep 28th, 2007 by Martin Lee
Today, we take a break from investment. I would like to share with you a lecture that might help you to reflect on your live and your dreams. Here’s the background:
Randy Pausch is a 46-year-old professor at Carnegie Mellon University who specialises in Virtual Reality. He has terminal cancer and has only a few more months left to live. This week, he delivered a lecture called “How to Live Your Childhood Dreams” talking about his life’s journey and the lessons he’s learned. The Wall Street Journal called it “the lecture of a lifetime“.
It’s really touching and extremely humourous.
Where you screwed up and nobody says anything to you anymore, then that means they gave up.
The brick walls are there for a reason. They are there to give us a chance to show us how badly we want something. They stop people who do not want it badly enough.

Take note there is a short 10s commercial before the actual video.
I have been searching for and reading various blogs hoping to find suitable ones to link to in my blog. I especially have come to like yours. I was wondering if you would like to exchange links.
