The Last Lecture

I'm hopping on the bandwagon of the Last Lecture. Nope. I'm not going to die yet. But I just read the book and watch the video of The Last Lecture. Abundance of great advice. But its all the same advice repeated again and again from self help book. But we all just don't listen and practice. It feels good to read it but its not beneficial if we don't really practice it. Anyway, here is some advice from the book:

a) Don't complain. Just work hard. (Time wasted when complain can be channel to beneficial work)
b) Don't obsess over what people think. (IMHO, everyone is different. So you can't really satisfy everyone)
c) Dream big.
d) Best shortcut is long which is basically two words : work hard
e) A bad apology (insincere) is worse than no apology at all

This book can be bought cheaply from Amazon.
