Steve Jobs' - Stanford Graduation Speech - 2005

• "You've got to find what you love, keep looking, don't settle"
  This is a common advice but unfortunately it tends to be forgotten...
  Creativity, Energy, Perseverance come with passion. Here Steve Jobs also insists on the importance to take the right time to find your passion.
• "Knowing that we're all going to die it's the best way to avoid the trap of thinking you've something to lose"
  Japan's earthquake reminded me that. Everyone can die tomorrow, all fears disappear when we're facing death. And yet most people don't success because they're scared of something (Risking? Leading? Looking Stupid?)
• "Don't be trapped by dogma which is living with the results of other people's thinking"
  We have this great quality to learn faster and better than any races. But because of that we let ourselves being influenced by outside thinking. His message here is "you can't be happy if you don't follow your heart".

• "There is an expiry date on blaming your parents for steering you in the wrong direction"

  Here she is talking about the benefits of failure and how poverty can help us focusing on the essentials such as family and personal happiness.
• "Choosing to live in narrow spaces leads to a form of mental agoraphobia"
  If you've watched Shutter Island or travelled a lot you know what she's talking about. Most of us are stuck in their own world, don't the reality of things and can really suffered from that both socially or professionally. That's why she's talking about "The important of Imagination" and how learning from situation you never been through in real but just imagined can be incredibly helpful.

Marissa Mayer - Illinois Institute of Technology - Graduation Speech - 2009

• "Surround yourself with the smartest people you know"
  It's even more true since Twitter and Facebook. Now you can know what the smartest people on earth are saying. Look at Robert Scoble's lists for example here. I find this amazing. But Marissa here also meant to physically surround yourself with the smartest people you know and sometimes it can mean scarifying a lot... Like money.. At the beginning at least..  
• "Do something you're not ready to do"
  This is hard. Have you ever talked in front of 500 people? Accepted a project you have no idea how to manage? Good. Pushing his own boundaries seems to be the only way to really learn and grow.
