Steve Jobs motivational commencement speech at Stanford - how being fired, left out can motivate one to greater heights

Read and grow rich. Learn and earn





Small failures, small rifts need not bother you on the way to success.  Being rejected is a small deal,  Its one of the blinks events on your way to success.  No one can stop you.    Failure can be the best thing that can happen in your life.  

"I was fired from the very company I created… and it turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to me."

When I was born, my biological parents gave me up for adoption.
That moment — even though I couldn't remember it — left a mark that never fully faded.
My adoptive parents gave me love, warmth, and stability.
But inside, a quiet voice kept asking: Why wasn't I enough to be kept?

That question became my engine.
That pain — my fuel.
I was determined to build something so meaningful that the world couldn't look away.

No investors. No safety net. No plan B.
Just an idea — and an obsession to make technology beautiful, simple, and human.

For a while, it worked.
Then life flipped the script.

At 30, I was forced out — fired by the same company I had built from nothing.
It felt like exile.
Like being thrown out of your own home. 💼⚡

For months, I wandered in the dark — humiliated, angry, lost.
But somewhere in that emptiness… a spark reignited.

I started again.
From zero.
I built NeXT — and bought a small animation studio that would soon become Pixar.
And while I was rebuilding, life had a strange way of coming full circle:
Apple bought NeXT — not to hire me back, but to buy the technology I'd created.

That's how I returned.
This time, stronger.
Wiser.
Free from the need to prove — driven instead to create.

Together, we launched the iMac, the iPod, the iPhone.
We didn't just design products — we redesigned how people live, dream, listen, and connect.

Behind every headline was a man once rejected, adopted, and fired —
who refused to let any of it define him.

🍎📲
Because sometimes the greatest breakthroughs are born from heartbreak.
Sometimes the fall is what gives you wings.

⏳💥
"Life will hit you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith.
Because what feels like an ending… might just be the start of something extraordinary."

Why career in sales is the best?

 It is one of the best.  It is the easiest path to financial success and independence.  But the most challengiing to master.  All you need are good skills in communication, good manners and memory, good dressing and presto..

But very few and only the best qualify.  Those who get in must have Passion, Integrity and Competence.

More power to sellers. More success to you
