I believe we all need to have a final destination. Several of them.
Visions that we want to see manifest so much that anything that doesn't
coincide with that is automatically filtered out. Do you want to be
married with children and have four or five homes? Do you want to be the
best manager Best Buy has ever seen? Do you want to be President? Just
choose. If you say you don't know what you want then you're either lying
or speaking from fear.

It was drummed into my head that college is the ticket to a good life...
but some career goals don't require college. For Kanye to make an album
called College Dropout it was more about having the guts to embrace who
you are, rather than following the path society has carved out for you.

Say there's a white kid who lives in a nice home, goes to an all-white

for him to pick up a rap tape is incredible to me, because what that's
saying is that he's living a fantasy life of rebellion.

become what he ought to be and could be.

We have discovered that there is a set of human strengths that are
the most likely buffers against mental illness: courage, optimism,
interpersonal skill, work ethic, hope, honesty and perseverance. Much of
the task of prevention will be to create a science of human strength
whose mission will be to foster these virtues in young people.

The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, he said:
"Man. Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived."

Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on.

When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: "If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right." It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?" And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.
Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything ‒ all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure ‒ these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.
Your time is limited, so don't waste it 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 others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

The system is that there is no system. That doesn't mean we don't have process. Apple is a very disciplined company, and we have great processes. But that's not what it's about. Process makes you more efficient.
But innovation comes from people meeting up in the hallways or calling each other at 10:30 at night with a new idea, or because they realized something that shoots holes in how we've been thinking about a problem. It's ad hoc meetings of six people called by someone who thinks he has figured out the coolest new thing ever and who wants to know what other people think of his idea.
And it comes from saying no to 1,000 things to make sure we don't get on the wrong track or try to do too much. We're always thinking about new markets we could enter, but it's only by saying no that you can concentrate on the things that are really important.

Simon Sinek is the author of “Start With Why”. He understands that we make decisions based on our emotional response more than our rational response. He gives great insight into how great leaders and organizations tap into this when they focus on their purpose and let that shine through in their products, the way they relate to customers, and how they do what they do. Come have breakfast with Simon and leave inspired and armed with the right arguments for why you should fight to keep your personal and organizational aspirations at the center of the conversation. We instantly recognized that Simon was talking about exactly what we found was the key to success amongst our clients – purpose – what it is, and why it works.

When you have an album as acclaimed as OutKast's 1998 opus, Aquemini, the temptation is there to capitalize on it by sticking with the same formula the next time around. But if Big Boi and Dre did that, they wouldn't be OutKast, and they'd lose their reps as two of hip-hop's most adventurous musicmakers.

Since Aquemini, OutKast have been the prodigal hip-hop artists. Jay Z may have staked claim on the 'King of Hip Hop' crown but clearly, OutKast proved to be the most forward thinking, unique, consistent and creative force in popular hip hop.

B.O.B. is the kind of song that gave OutKast the reputation as one of the best live shows hip hop had to offer, as they, along with contemporaries such as The Roots and Black Eyed Peas among others began to implement live instrumentation into their acts, which is still horribly under utilized within hip hop recordings.
