I missed reading Steve Jobs’ commencement address at Stanford this past June, but it showed up on digg a few days ago and I found it pretty good. Here’s a text transcript and a youtube video (14:33). Being a confirmed story addict, I like his “just three stories” format.

I’m setting off in a new, uncertain direction myself, and so I especially appreciate this:

you can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.

And I share his “death is your friend” sentiment as well — is that morbid?
