I think everyone knows Steve Jobs. He was CEO and co-founder of Apple and Pixar who died in October 2011. He was very successful businessman and inventor. He gives a speech in Stanford University and talks about his life and teaches lesson by giving examples from his own life. If you haven't watch this video, you must watch it and maybe you can inspire from his life story :)
A great man of our times. Hard to believe, but he was born one year before me. :) Interesting to note that he didn't actually graduate from university (like Bill Gates). Quite a moving speech. Would be interesting to turn this into an extensive reading activity, using http://lessonwriter.com -- divide it into three or four sections. Would lead nicely into a writing activity.
