Your Last Lecture

September 20, 2007  |  By Travis  |  Entreprenews   

This went popular on Digg a few hours ago, but it still deserves the attention of everyone that’s yet to see it.

A professor, weeks away from death, recently shared his last lecture. One of his quotes mentioned in the video really got to me:

“Experience is what you get when you don’t get what you want.”

Watch this short video a few times, and appreciate all you have while you still have it.

    Experience is what you get right after you need it.

    That’s my favourite quote, but that is definitely an inspiring video.

    This definitely isn’t one of those typical “follow your dreams” speeches.

    Thanks for sharing this, didn’t hear about it before hand. What he ended off with, more than anything, really got to me – “if you lead your life the right way, the dreams will come to you”.

    I wish I could have met such a great man like this.
