Brick walls are there for a reason: they let us prove how badly we want things. 2. Experience is what you get when you didn’t get what you wanted. 3. Never lose the child-like wonder. 4. If we do something which is pioneering, we will get arrows in the back. But at the end of the day, a whole lot of people will have a whole lot of fun. 5. Be good at something; it makes you valuable. 6. If you live your life the right way, the karma will take care of itself, and the dreams will come to you. There is a tribute quiz on the lecture at www.mystudiyo.com : you can add your own questions at the end of the quiz. http://www.mystudiyo.com/activity.php?act=558 Some lessons from Randy Pausch’s last lecture that especially moved me:
