I had a professor in university once who said “It’s a shame that when we grow up, we lose that child-like ability to dream. Don’t ever stop dreaming.” I’ve always held onto this advice.
Randy Pausch’s last lecture is about having childhood dreams and achieving them. If you’ve never heard Randy Pausch’s Last Lecture, take an hour and watch it. This CMU professor, who is currently surviving with pancreatic cancer is an inspiration to anyone.
Don’t give up your dreams.
