The quote today is another one by Steve Jobs.

We haven't done one by him in a while but I did do a couple of others by him before.

Anyway . let's take a look at today's quote.

" You time is limited.

So don't waste your time, living someone else's life.

Don't be trapped by dogma --- which is living with the results of other people's thinking.

Don't let the noise of other people's thinking drown out you inner voice.

And most important have the courage to follow your heart and intuition."

Well , let's go over this.

There are several vocabulary words maybe for students to cover.

. Your time is limited , so don't waste you time living someone else's life.

All right . That is pretty simple.

Yeah.

a lot of times people tell you should do this or you should do that.

A lot of times it is your parents too.

Even though they love you.

You know, if they are trying to force you to be something that you are not meant to

be or you don't feel like it is not in your heart , perhaps you should not do it.

Don't be attracted by dogma.

All right . Dogma is a set of beliefs the someone is expected to accept without asking

questions.

Okay, you know, just you know if someone says this is what you have to do, this is what

you have to follow.

Which is living the results of other people's thinking.

So you want it to be your thinking.

Don't let the noise of other people's opinions drown out.

Remember if something drowns out to hide or cover something by being louder.

so they are talking to you so much.

They are making you quite that little voice that is inside your head.

That is what we mean by your inner voice, One's thoughts, one's sense of self.

Part of you in your brain that talks to you.

That is your inner voice.

So that is what he is telling you.

Don't let the voice of other's opinions drown out your inner voice.

Okay.

Most important.

Have the courage to follow your heart.

And you intuition, your natural feeling.

Your sense to understand something through your feelings.

That is what we mean by your intuition.

Remember we often say...

We have a lot of common intuitions.

Like we often say a mother's intuition, when she can sense that maybe something is wrong

with one of her children.

Even though they didn't say anything or we sometimes talk about a wife's intuition if

she might sense her husband might be cheating on her or something like that.

But here, But everyone has some intuition.

So anyway, let's take a look at the note here.

So Steve Jobs is basically encouraging people to follow one's dreams.

Don't allow yourself.

to be trapped by being something that someone else wanted.

Okay . that is basically it.

you to be if it is not really in your heart.

Now if it is in your heart, and you do like it.

Then hey ! Go for it.

Why not ? Don't allow others to discourage you.

If you believe you can do it and you have some skill.

Well, I should kind of point this out.

You should really have some skill in it.

Sometimes it makes me think of a lot of those American Idol auditions.

Where some people at least they acted like they though, you know , their singing voice

was really, really good and they could win American Idol.

Yeah.

No . Obviously, you can't really be a real singer if you don't really have that skill.

You might have to face this.

You might have to look in the mirror and realize hey!

I just don't really have what it takes for this.

If You do really have some skill.

Or if you know can learn it..

You could perfect it.

If you did have at least a decent voice.

You can take lessons to improve it.

Why not ? Or whatever it is that you do, especially if it is creative..

Maybe you could get help to try to follow that dream.

If you have some skill or some talent in that area.

Then maybe go for it.

In this area, Go for I it, means go do it try it.

You know put effort or enthusiasm into it and at least try for it.

Anyway, I hope you got it.

I hope it is clear.

Thank you for your time.

Bye-bye.
