Helped Others Achieve Their Childhood Dreams
As I was getting back from Japan on Friday (more on that trip hopefully later this week), my friend Chris emailed to tell me that Randy Pausch had passed away. Back in February, I posted a video about Randy Pausch and his last lecture at Carnegie Mellon University that he gave called Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams.
He gave that lecture after finding out he had been diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer. Subsequently he took the material in his last lecture plus some new thoughts and wrote a book called The Last Lecture.
His lecture and the book are both great and are definitely worth your time. Here’s a guy that I don’t know other than these two insights into his life: an hour of online video and 224 pages of a small book. But from that, I can tell you he’s someone that really did help people achieve their dreams.
