"It's not about how to achieve your dreams. It's about how to lead your life. If you lead your life the right way, the karma will take care of itself. The dreams will come to you." Randy Pausch
Randy Pausch, a Professor of Computer Science, Human-Computer Interaction, and Design at and a best-selling author, who achieved worldwide fame for his speech The Last Lecture, after being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and having only a few months to live. Randy said that the lecture was for his own children. He would teach them most of life's lessons through that single lecture. I think he taught the world so much more.
Randy passed away on July 25, 2008.
Everyone's idea of what this message means will be different, depending on where you are in your life. Do you already know what you want from life? Where you want to be and who you want to be in your life? If you haven't, its probably better to decide sooner than later since you never really know what fate awaits you.
I think Randy is saying that when you know who you want to be and where you want to be, things will naturally fall into place. He is confident when he says that everything will work out, eventhough he had been diagnosed with cancer at the time. He accepted his fate and knew that there was something better waiting for him.
Each one of us should live like Randy did. Strive for better, but always know that things will always work out. Don't stress the little things. Try to be patient and most importantly dream big.... (just my own little speech)
