Let's learn life lessons from Steve Jobs



Who doesn't know about Steve Jobs, the iconic figure of the 21st century who founded Apple company and changed the patterns of the technological world? He was not born with a silver spoon, but made his destiny by sheer hard work and tremendous patience. Most people know about his biography but let's ponder over his quality traits which make him unique and successful despite all the upheavals in his life.

  • Don't complain for the lack of resources, find the options which are available and make the best use of time.  Steve Jobs dropped out of Reeds College, as his parents could not afford the high fees of the college. He used this as an opportunity to learn calligraphy which made him more creative and this artistic creativity contributed a ground for making Apple products beautiful.

  • Rejection comes in life to create another opportunity. When Jobs was fired from Apple, he founded another company NeXT Inc and funded in Pixar, thus again became instrumental in making new technologies available to the world.

  • Aim high. Jobs always talked about changing the world and he himself proved by his own work. High ambitions keep us motivated for a longer period.

  • Seek ultimate truth.   Since College life Jobs had an interest in spirituality to seek the real meaning of life. The way of searching truth is such that even if one doesn't get enlightenment, he certainly becomes a very matured and intuitive person.

How Vedanta can help you deal with fear and anxiety

Suppose you are going through a lot of troubles, trapped in a tragic situation and you are feeling so helpless amidst all the difficulties. What will happen if you suddenly wake up to realize that it was just a dream, a nightmare? Won’t you feel so relaxed after knowing that whatever tragedy was happening with you was not real but it was just happening in a dream? According to Vedanta, there are mainly three states of reality: waking, dreaming and deep sleep. Waking life(Jagrat) is where we experience physical realities, dreaming life(Swapna) means the world of only mental thoughts and dreams without physical experience and deep sleep(Sushupta) is the state where physical and mental existence disappear. While we dream, we think that it is real. Only when we wake up, we realize that it was just a dream. Similarly, waking life is also like a dream.
