Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.
You’ve got to find what you love.
Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become
“Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't 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.” Steve Jobs. June 12, 2005
Always Leave The Door Open
Always leave the door open
Be good
Remember you can stoop to conquer
Leave your marks on the sands of time
As you move from job to job Always leave the door open
You might need to go back Might be at higher or lower level…
- Sola David-Borha (2000)
