Quem listou foi o Ririan Project, mas as “sabedorias” são de Steve Jobs. Das 10 (muito boas) que ele listou, minhas três preferidas:
3. Steve Jobs said: “The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it.”
5. Steve Jobs said: “There’s a phrase in Buddhism, ‘Beginner’s mind.’ It’s wonderful to have a beginner’s mind.”
10. Steve Jobs said: “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 other’s 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.”
Teoricamente, a oitava também parece boa (“I would trade all of my technology for an afternoon with Socrates“), mas ela é só hipotética e, até certo ponto, contradiz o próprio Jobs. Se ele trocasse mesmo, teria ido estudar Sócrates ou escrever sobre ele ou algo assim. Jobs pode apreciar muito e dar toda a importância do mundo ao filósofo (que realmente merece), mas o próprio Jobs veio aqui no universo deixar o seu “dent” (leia a 9). E ele tem a ver com… tecnologia.
