六年前，乔布斯曾在斯坦福大学毕业典礼上的发表讲话，用三个真实故事讲诉他创业和生活的感悟。值此毕业季到来，与大家分享这篇经典的演讲内容。
下面是演讲原文的节选：
今天我非常荣幸来参加你们的毕业典礼。我自己从来没有从大学毕业，所以今天应该是我距离毕业典礼最近的一次。今天我只想给你们讲三个我生活中的真实故事。仅此而已，没有什么长篇大论，就是三个故事。
第一个故事是关于把点连成线。
十七岁的时候，我进了大学。当时我很天真，选了一所学费几乎和斯坦福大学一样昂贵的学校，当工人的养父母倾其所有的积蓄为我支付了大学学费。读了六个月后，我却看不出上学有任何意义。我既不知道自己这一生想干什么，也不确定大学能帮我弄明白自己想干什么。所以，我决定退学。当年做出这个决定的时候心里还有点打鼓，但现在往回看，那却是我有生以来做出的最好的决定之一。从退学那一刻起，我就可以不再选那些我毫无兴趣的必修课，而开始去旁听一些在我看来更有意思的课。
当时，我所在的学校的书法课大概是全国最好的。校园里所有的公告栏和每个抽屉标签上的字都写得非常漂亮。我退学后不用正常上课了，所以我决定选一门书法课，学学怎么写好字。
当时我并不指望书法在以后的生活中能有什么实用价值。但是，十年之后，我们在设计第一台Macintosh 计算机时，以前学的书法一下子浮现在我眼前。于是，我们把这些东西全都设计进了计算机中。这是第一台有这么漂亮的文字版式的计算机。要不是我当初在大学里偶然选了这么一门课，Macintosh 计算机绝不会有那么多种印刷字体或间距安排合理的字号。要不是退了学，我也不会碰巧选了那门书法课。当然，我在大学里不可能把当时的点向前延伸，连成一条线；但是现在回过头去看，那条线却无比清晰。
你们现在同样不可能从现在这个点上连出通向未来的那一条线。只有当你回头看时，才会发现这些过去的点其实已经画出了那条线。所以，要相信每一个点迟早都会连接到一起。
第二个故事是关于好恶与得失。
幸运的是，我在很小的时候就发现自己喜欢做什么。我在20 岁时和沃兹在我父母的车库里办起了苹果公司。我们干得很卖力，十年后，苹果公司就从车库里我们两个人发展成为一个市值20 亿美元、拥有4000多名员工的大企业。而在此之前的一年，我们刚推出了我们Macintosh电脑，当时我刚过而立之年。可后来，我被解雇了。你怎么会被自己办的公司解雇呢？是这样，随着苹果公司越做越大，我们聘请了一位我认为非常有才华的人与我一
道管理公司。在开始的一年多里，一切都很顺利。可是，随后我俩对公司前景的看法开始出现分歧，最后我俩反目了。这时，董事会站在了他那一边，所以在30 岁那年，我离开了公司，而且这件事闹得满城风雨。我成年后的整个生活重心都没有了，这使我心力交瘁。
一连几个月，我真的不知道应该怎么办。这次失败弄得沸沸扬扬的，我甚至想过逃离硅谷。但是，渐渐地，我开始有了一个想法--我仍然热爱我过去做的一切。在苹果公司发生的这些风波丝毫没有改变这一点。于是，我决定从头开始。
虽然当时我并没有意识到，但事实证明，被苹果公司炒鱿鱼是我一生中碰到的最好的事情。尽管前景未卜，但从头开始的轻松感取代了保持成功的沉重感。这使我进入了一生中最富有创造力的时期之一。
在此后的五年里，我开了一家名叫NeXT 的公司和一家叫Pixar的公司，我还爱上一位了不起的女人，后来娶了她。Pixar公司推出了世界上第一部用电脑制作的动画片《玩具总动员》，它现在是全球最成功的动画制作室。世道轮回，苹果公司买下NeXT 后，我又回到了苹果公司，我们在NeXT 公司开发的技术成了苹果公司这次重新崛起的核心。我和劳伦娜也建立了美满的家庭。
我确信，如果不是被苹果公司解雇，这一切决不可能发生。这是一剂苦药，可我认为苦药利于病。有时生活会当头给你一棒，但不要灰心。我坚信让我一往无前的唯一力量就是我热爱我所做的一切。所以，一定得知道自己喜欢什么，选择爱人时如此，选择工作时同样如此。工作将是生活中的一大部分，让自己真正满意的唯一办法，是做自己认为是有意义的工作；做有意义的工作的唯一办法，是热爱自己的工作。你们如果还没有发现自己喜欢什么，那就不断地去寻找，不要急于做出决定。就像一切要凭着感觉去做的事情一样，一旦找到了自己喜欢的事，感觉就会告诉你。
我的第三个故事是关于死亡。
17 岁那年，我读到过这样一段话，大意是：“如果你把每一天都当作生命的最后一天过，总有一天你的假设会成为现实。”我记住了这句话，从那时起，33 年过去了，我每天早晨都对着镜子扪心自问：“假如今天是我生命中的最后一天，我还会去做今天要做的事吗？”如果一连许多天我的回答都是“不”，我知道自己应该有所改变了。
大约一年前，我被诊断患了癌症。那天早上七点半，我做了一次扫描检查，结果清楚地表明我的胰腺上长了一个瘤子，可那时我连胰腺是什么还不知道呢！医生告诉我说，几乎可以确诊这是一种无法治愈的恶性肿瘤，我最多还能活3 到6 个月。
我整天都想着诊断结果。到了晚上，我做了一次组织切片检查，他们把一个内窥镜通过喉咙穿过我的胃进入肠子，用针头在胰腺的瘤子上取了一些细胞组织。当时我用了麻醉剂，
陪在一旁的妻子后来告诉我，医生在显微镜里看了细胞之后叫了起来，原来这是一种少见的可以通过外科手术治愈的恶性肿瘤。我做了手术，现在好了。
这是我和死神离得最近的一次，我希望也是今后几十年里最近的一次。有了这次经历之后，现在我可以更加实在地和你们谈论死亡，那就是：谁都不愿意死。即使是那些想进天堂的人也不会愿意为了进天堂而去死。然而，死亡是我们共同的归宿，没人能摆脱。我们注定会死，因为死亡很可能是生命最好的一项发明。它推进生命的新辰换代。现在，你们就是新的，但在不久的将来，你们也会逐渐成为旧的，也会被淘汰。
你们的时间都有限，所以不要按照别人的意愿去活，这是浪费时间。不要让别人观点的聒噪声淹没自己的心声。最主要的是，要有跟着自己感觉和直觉走的勇气。无论如何，感觉和直觉早就知道你到底想成为一个什么样的人，其它的都不重要。

I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. I never graduated from college. Truth be told, this is the closest I've ever gotten to a college graduation. Today I want to tell you three stories from my life. That's it. No big deal. Just three stories. 你必须要找到你所爱的东西 很荣幸和大家一道参加这所世界上最好的一座大学的毕业典礼。我大学没毕业，说实话，这是我第一次离大学毕业典礼这么近。今天我想给大家讲三个我自己的故事，不讲别的，也不讲大道理，就讲三 The first story is about connecting the dots. I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit. So why did I drop out? 第一个故事讲的是点与点之间的关系。我在里德学院（Reed College）只读了六个月就退学了，此后便在学校里旁听，又过了大约一年半，我彻底离开。那么，我为什么退学呢？ It started before I was born. My biological mother was a young, unwed college gra duate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption. She felt very strongly t hat I should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife. Except that when I popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. 这得从我出生前讲起。我的生母是一名年轻的未婚在校研究生，她决定将我送给别人收养。她非常希望收养我的是有大学学历的人，所以把一切都安排好了，我一出生就交给一对律师夫妇收养。没想到我落地的霎那间，那对夫妇却决定收养一名女孩。So my parents, who were on a waiting list, g ot a call in the middle of the night asking: "We have an unexpected baby boy; do you want him?" They said: "Of course." My biological mother later found out that

But I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents' savings were being spent on my college tuition. After six months, I couldn't see the value in it. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out. And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out OK. It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions I ever made. The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required classes that didn't interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting. It wasn't all romantic. I didn't have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends' rooms, I returned coke bottles for the 5￠deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna

So why did I drop out? 我在Reed大学读了六个月之后就退学了,但是在十八个月以后——我真正的作出退学决定之前,我还经常去学校。我为什么要退学呢？ It started before I was born.

My biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father had never graduated from high school. She refused to sign the final adoption papers. She only relented a few months later when my parents promised that I would someday go to college. 故事从我出生的时候讲起。我的亲生母亲是一个年轻的,没有结婚的大学毕业生。她决定让别人收养我, 她十分 想让我被大学毕业生收养。所以在我出生的时候，她已经做好了一切的准备工作，能使得我被一个律师和他的妻子所收养。但是她没有料到,当我出生之后,律师夫妇突然决定他们想要一个女孩。所以我的生养父母（他们还 在我亲生父母的观察名单上）突然在半夜接到了一个电话:“我们现在这儿有一个不小心生出来的男婴,你们想要他吗？”他们回答道:“当然！”但是我亲生母亲随后发现，我的养母从来没有上过大学,我的父亲甚至从没有读过高中。她拒绝签这个收养合同。但是在几个月以后,我的父母答应她一定要让我上大学,那个时候她才同意。 And 17 years later I did go to college. But I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents' savings were being spent on my college tuition. After
乔布斯《求知若饥，虚心若愚》励志演讲稿今天，很荣幸来到这所世界上最好的学校之一的着名学校，参加毕业典礼。我从来没从大学毕业过，说实话，这是我离大学毕业最近的一刻。今天，我只说3个故事，不谈大道理，3个故事就好。 第1个故事，是关于人生中的点点滴滴如何串连在一起。 我在锐意得学院待了6个月就办休学了。到我退学前，一共休学了18个月。那么，我为什么休学?这得从我出生前讲起。 我的亲生母亲当时是个研究生，年轻的未婚妈妈，她决定让别人收养我。她强烈觉得，应该让已经毕业的人收养我，所以我出生时，她就准备让一对律师夫妇收养我。但是这对夫妻到了最后一刻反悔了，他们想收养女孩。所以我必须等待收养名单上的另一对夫妻，也就是我后来的养父母。有一天半夜，他们接到一个电话，“有一名意外出生的男孩，你们要认养他吗”，他们回答“当然要”。但是我的生母发现，我的养母从来没有大学毕业过，我现在的爸爸则连高中毕业文凭也没有，所以她拒绝在送养文件上做最后签字。直到几个月后，我的养父母保证将来一定会让我上大学，我生母的态度才软化。 2019年后，我上大学了。但是当时我无知地选了一所学费几乎跟斯坦福的一样贵的大学，我那工人阶级的父母将所有积蓄都花在我的学费上。6个月后，我看不出念这个学院的价值何在。那时候，我不知道这辈子要干什么，也不知道念大学能对我有什么帮助，只知道 1 / 7
我为了念这个书，花光了我父母这辈子所有积蓄。所以，我决定休学，相信船到桥头自然直。 当时这个决定看来相当可怕，可是现在看来，那是我这辈子做过的最棒的决定之一。 我休学之后，我再也不用上我没兴趣的必修课了，我把时间拿去听那些我有兴趣的课。这一点也不浪漫。我没有宿舍，所以我睡在友人家里的地板上，靠着回收空可乐罐的5分钱退费买吃的。每个星期天晚上，我得走7里路，绕过大半个镇去印度教的Hare Krishna神庙吃顿好料，我喜欢Hare Krishna神庙的好吃的。 我追随着我的好奇心和直觉，我的大部分投入，后来都成了无价之宝。举个例子。当时锐意得学院有着大概是全国最好的书写教育，校园里的每一张海报上每一个抽屉标签上，都是美丽的手写字。因为我休学了，可以不照正常选课程序来，所以我跑去上书写课。我学了serif 与sanserif体，学到在不同字母组合间变更字间距，学到活字印刷伟大的地方。书写的美好、历史感、艺术感是科学所不具备的，我觉得这很迷人。 我没预期过学这些东西能在我的生活中起些什么实际作用，不过2019年后，当我在设计第1台麦金塔电脑时，我想起了过去所学的东西，把这些东西都设计进了麦金塔，这是第1台能印刷出漂亮东西的电脑。如果我没能沉溺于这样一门课，麦金塔可能就不会有多重字体和等比例间距字体。Windows抄袭了麦金塔的使用方式。因此，如2 / 7
