If you missed the video I posted on Friday with the CEO of Apple, Steve Jobs, I would strongly suggest you check it out. In the 14 minute speech, Steve drops many pearls of wisdom he has collected over his long, marvelous life. One of these, however, really hit home with me. It was the part about facing death, and the incredible motivation it provides.
When I was 18, I was stricken with a very severe case of Crohn’s disease. It had caused me to lose over 60 pounds in a few months, and took away my life, as I had to be near a bathroom and heating pad at all times. I was in constant pain, and unable to really function normally as I used to.
