Steve Jobs

How did he become a successful man ?

          By read all of his stories I got a few conclusion about him. He felt that the computer was going to change the world, and it was going to become what he called 'the bicycle for the mind.' It would enable individuals to have this incredible capability that they never dreamed of before, He was a person of  huge vision. But he was also a person that believed in the precise detail of every step. He was methodical and careful about everything a perfectionist to the end.

          Sculley also says that one of the things that made Jobs stand out among others was his focus on minimalism.

            He always believed the most important decisions you make are not the things you do, but the things you decide not to do, Sculley says, recounting a visit to Jobs house in which he noticed it contained only a picture of Einstein, a Tiffany lamp, a chair and a bed. 

           Many have attributed Apple's success to Jobs' relentless pursuit of user-friendly gadgets, and Sculley confirmed that was a hallmark of his style early on.

          He always looked at things from the perspective of what was the user's experience going to be. But unlike a lot of people in product marketing in those days, who would go out and do consumer testing, asking people, 'What did they want?' Steve didn't believe in that, Sculley says. He believed that showing someone a calculator, for example, would not give them any indication as to where the computer was going to go because it was just too big a leap.

         Jobs is famous for his eye for beautiful design, but Sculley says he also had a knack for recruiting the best people and believed in reaching out to those he wanted on his team.
But added that what made Jobs different from his rivals was his commitment to perfection.

About Steve Jobs love and loss

         For right now, he is a freelance copywriter for fashion businesses, but his vision extends far beyond that. Lately, he has been feeling stuck in the space that he has created for his self. It neither feels right or good. He has been living day to day, with no sense of structure. And though he enjoy what he do, he know something is missing. At times, there is an inescapable emptiness inside him. he thought that he had freed the butterfly when he quit his job, but once the dust settled, he feel just as trapped as before.

        He trust that the future will connect the dots, but he nervous that he has few dots to connect, in his eager pursuit of success. That in the illusion of knowing exactly what direction he want to take his business, actually his losing direction of his life.
He  has been working with a career coach lately, and i think part of this is the result of entering a different type of mental space. he hasn’t publicly announced this yet, but he still in the very early stages of working on something that is going to be off the charts amazing.

       He still keep writing blog posts, hoping that each will become viral. None of them do. his best blog posts, it seemed, were all written within the first 2 months of starting this website. And i thinking about how to get back to that level of success, I realize that I would have to keep writing in a way that I would no longer enjoy.

       It feels as though the longer he spend on his business, the less focus he have. He had been trying to get it back, but maybe it’s not about focus. Maybe in my trying to build a success, I am forgetting who I am.
