What I learned from rereading Becoming Steve Jobs: The Evolution of a Reckless Upstart into a Visionary Leader by Brent Schlender and Rick Tetzeli.

单集文稿 ...

  • He shaped how I came to view the world.

  • We were both strong minded, but he had a fully formed aesthetic, and I did not.

  • It is hard enough to see what is already there, to remove the many impediments to a clear view of reality.

  • But Steve's gift was even greater.

  • He saw clearly what was not there, what could be there, and what had to be there.

  • His mind was never a captive of reality.

  • Quite the contrary.

  • He imagined what reality lacked and set out to remedy it.

  • His ideas were not arguments, but intuitions born of a true inner freedom.

  • For this reason, he possessed an uncannily large sense of possibility, an epic sense of possibility.

  • Steve's love of beauty and his impatience with ugliness pervaded our lives.

  • No object was too small or insignificant to be exempt from Steve's examination of the meaning and the quality of its form.

  • He looked at things and then created things from the standpoint of perfection.

  • That could be an unforgiving standpoint.

  • But over time, I came to see its reasons, to understand Steve's unbelievable rigorous, which he imposed first and most strenuously on himself.

  • He was the most unfettered thinker I have ever known.

  • That was Steve's wife speaking at his memorial service after he passed away.

  • And it's an excerpt from the book that I'm going to talk to you about today, which is becoming Steve Jobs, the evolution of a reckless upstart into a visionary leader.

  • And it was written by Brent Schlender and Rick Tetzelli.

  • So this is the second time I read this book.
