“You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.”
—Steve Jobs
My take home message from Jobs’ speech is the encouragement to follow your heart. Beyond that I feel there is an additional insight that you have to love and work on your dots. Don’t easily give them up. The dots could become the stars as I mentioned in my previous posts. There are two effects in being fearless working on your dots:
First, you are truly enjoying and experiencing your life while working on your dots.
Second, you defined your time with your passion and heart blood while working on your dots. You are making values. These valuable periods of your committed time will definitely be connected in the future in some way simply because you have polished your time in your way while others have not. So you don’t ‘have to’ trust that dots will some how connect in your future, because it is a destined fact and you know it will happen just like you know one plus one equals to two.
