Inspiring Stories: Steve Jobs, his apple and the world

"Steve Jobs is a genius. He is an innovator. A visionary. He is perhaps the most beloved billionaire in the world." Andrew Ross Sorkin (NY Times)

 How a college drop-out convinced the world of his capacity to be a genius never stops to intrigue anyone. An adopted child who slept on the floor in his friends' rooms and relied on free meals went on to rule the world. Sometimes you wonder how he does it or what he is thinking.

"I had no idea what I was going to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out" Steve Jobs

The lesson here is just because you don't know where you are going now doesn't mean you can't make something out of your life. Success has nothing to do with your background or class, it's a state of mind. It's not the qualifications from Cambridge, Oxford or Stanford that qualifies you for a good life. A beautiful mind is a result of what you feed it. A mind nourished with positive thoughts and a consistent dream of achievements will travel far.
Ask Steve, his apple has travelled the world.

This is a tribute to a great man who stepped down recently as the CEO of Apple Inc. A beautiful mind who brought us beautiful products.

"Sometimes life will hit you in the head with bricks, don't lose faith" Steve Jobs
