Faith.

I stepped out of my own world of an early morning Skype chat with my love in Peru, my clients, Wiseman-the-insane (my boxing trainer), emails and the traffic on my little scooter to flip open my iPad, BANG! Face to face with reality of Steve Jobs,and his world.

It is not just his passing, and the sudden frailty of "life" as we know it that leaves me and us all reaching for meaning, explanation, and an anchor ...  But moreover the sheer magnitude with which he believed. I am left with this vacuum between my dreams and making them happen.   What am i waiting for? have i done enough? Can i do more? How do i connect the dots going forward? 

I talk as if i know him. I don't but i do know that i, like countless others love his technology and i know deep down that he has had an impact on not only my world by the technology i use, but also by the way i live and the way i LOVE. And by love, i don't just mean Fabiana, or my parents or my mates. I mean doing every thing with LOVE, from the random smile to the taxi driver and picking up the sweet wrapper lying on the floor outside the reception and igniting others. 

As Barrack Obama put it so eloquently; "The world has lost a visionary. And there may be no greater tribute to Steve's success than the fact that much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented,"

So what of these "Dots going forward?"  - The words come from Steve Jobs's Stanford Commencement speech.  . 

I am grateful. 

Steve Jobs: 'Born in San Francisco, the Buddhist and son of adoptive parents started Apple Computer with friend Steve Wozniak in his parent's garage 1976.   Six years ago, Jobs had talked about how a sense of his mortality was a major driver behind that vision.  "Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life," Jobs said during a Stanford commencement ceremony in 2005. "Because almost everything - all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important." "Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart." - www.fin24.com

So ... REALLY? What are you waiting for?

So follow your intuition. Be curious. Live with passion. 

Thank-you.
