"When you grow up you tend to get told the world is the way it is, and your life is to just live your life as it is and try not to bash into the walls to much. But that's a very limited life. Life can be much broader, once you discover one simple fact. And that is, if everything around you that you call life was made up by people that are No smarter than you. And you can change it. You can influence it. You can build your own things that other people can use. It's to shake off this erroneous notion that life is just there and your just going to live it verses embrace it, change it, prove it, make your mark upon it. And once you learn that..... You'll never be the same again!"~ Steve Jobs ~

The Crazy One's
I often have a hard time grasping that me, one person, can do anything alone to change the world. Of course I strive to do my best, but what I'm realizing is that life will continue the same unless we grab ahold of our morals and what we believe to be true. For those who perhaps follow life to please other's and go unnoticed, this notion to be one of the 'crazy one's' is a bit overwhelming. It is true however that life needs those crazy one's to set new standards, make new inventions and really to keep things above status quo. Life is constantly moving and growing, it's time to stop and think about how you can leave your footprint on this world. Whether big or what you might consider small, it's your footstep and as we all know, our footprints are unique and valuable.

I absolutely love this. True that only the wild one's make a difference.
Sometimes when I stop and try to shut my mouth I remember I need to speak. Who cares what ppl think?
Thanks for reminding of all of us of how important it is to go against the grain sometimes when you believe in something
Have this youtube video on my favorites when I need a little bit of inspiration.
I love this article. Fascinating and inspiring. Steve Jobs was one of a kind
Awesome
I think the older I get the more I realize how important it is to stand up and be innovative even if you feel like people wont approve or be jealous or rude. Who cares right? In the long the run, it's all about standing up for yourself. I think the ppl you mentioned are a perfect example of this.
