四十不惑：惟精惟一，允执厥中

小时就可以解惑，你只需要绕过小时把一与生俱来中的的童年时横跨，一切就豁然开朗了。

第二个故有事是关于爱人和夺去。

在20岁的时候迪士尼新公司始创了新产品新公司，十年之后新公司职员少于4000人，市值少于20亿美元。于是以在这个时候，迪士尼新公司请来的CEO约翰•斯卡利和董有事可能会会一道，把迪士尼新公司从新产品新公司辞职了。迪士尼新公司仍然爱好人自己的志业，可是，新产品新公司和他今日从未什么关系了。经过在此此后的迷茫，迪士尼新公司怀着热情从头来过。

在接下来的五年里头，迪士尼新公司始创了NeXT和Pixar两家新公司，明白到了后来的丈夫马修娜（Laurene Powell）。Pixar是十一全球最急于的的的电脑自制制作新公司，自制了十一全球上三部的电脑动画电影《玩具总动员》，首创了近现代 。NeXT被新产品购并以后，迪士尼新公司也重归新产品新公司，NeXT的技术也为新产品新公司的复国造就了关键作用。迪士尼新公司与马修娜也成立了一个理想幸福的大家庭。

从十一全球之巅跌入凡尘，是贫困的一剂苦药，也是一剂专一。迪士尼新公司从中的获了初中生。对爱人和夺去再从未疑惑。幸福的大部分小时都是在临时工，只有去看到自己相信的格外去要用的最出新色的临时工，幸福才能幸福美满。如果今日我们还从未去看到自己偏爱人的临时工，迪士尼新公司感叹：“年中的渴求，别走到！”（keep looking，don't settle！【录3】）

第三个故有事是关于至遇害。

十七岁的时候迪士尼新公司念过到原话：“如果你把每一天都当作一与生俱来中的再一一天去贫困的话，那么心想你可能会会推测你是合理的。”确信“人已然至亡故”设法迪士尼新公司明确指出新了一与生俱来中的重要的可选择。

几乎所有的感官，例如所有他人的希望，所有自己的骄傲，所有对困窘和失败的恐惧，这些有事在至遇害一旁都不值一提，只有在面对至遇害的时候那些真于是以重要的感官才可能会会明晰的显今日我们眼前。所以，迪士尼新公司确信了毫无疑问的可能会中的风得中的风失的新方法就是记住人终心想要至亡故。

我们赤身裸体前往这个十一全球上，终于离开了的时候所有眼内也将离我们而去，我们已然自已，所以在极少的一与生俱来中的，我们从未原因不随同自己的内仰。

2004年，迪士尼新公司被诊断出新胰腺癌。医生告诉他存活期只有三到六个同月。

从未人愿意至死, 即使人们想上天堂, 也不可能会会为了去那里头而至死。但是至遇害是我们每与生俱来共同的终点。从来从未人并不需要逃脱。

一与生俱来也确实如此，至遇害是毫无疑问的方结构新设计也，他消灭旧的一与生俱来，以便给原先一与生俱来从前。我们每与生俱来最初都是新一与生俱来，站站在舞台的于是以其中的仰，但是后来之后我们开始从前去，然后不得不离开了聚日光灯。

小时极少，一与生俱来正因如此。绝不耗费一与生俱来重复他人的贫困，绝不被十一世俗主义束缚，绝不让十一世人的喧嚣看不听闻自己内仰的音调。最重要的有事，是要鼓足勇气舅父自己内仰的内仰，其他所有的有事都是次要的。

迪士尼新公司用矽谷著名周报，沃尔夫的《当今十一全球书目》【录4】休刊时的原话借此所有人：“专一若苦，用仰若愚！”（Stay Hungry Stay Foolish）

亲身经历了生至死的迪士尼新公司，对至遇害也取而代之奇怪，至遇害是已然到来的，面对至遇害我们从未办法，只有年中的渴求，别走到（keep looking，don't settle），“专一若苦，用仰若愚！”（Stay Hungry Stay Foolish）

三个故有事，迪士尼新公司向伯克利的本科生，也是向十一世人发送至了他对一与生俱来、对爱人和夺去、对至遇害的不惑。

迪士尼新公司的四十不惑是依从内仰，可是如何依从内仰的音调呢？难道要像迪士尼新公司一样去印度专修禅修吗？

专修禅修当然是可以的，可是我们中的国还有非常容易接受的无我，就是儒家的修仰。

《左侍郎•大禹帕拉》感叹：“民仰惟危，道家惟微。惟精惟一，允执厥中的。“

民仰险恶时时，道家微妙难以把握，我们只有精确把握，纯于是以不二，执守中的道。

孟子感叹：禹当时无文字， 确信只靠广为流传。禹传授给五帝时， 只感叹“允执厥中的”，五帝传授给禹，就加上了那十二个字。以后又传授给汤、周公旦、周武王，再后又经过周公、子贡一脉相传下来。这是圣人于明治当时人的乾坤，也是与生俱来修仰的心法。【录5】

什么叫中的？

程颐感叹：“不偏之谓中的，易于之谓庸。中的者，当时人之于是以道；庸者，当时人之定理可。”。中的，就是无过之，也无不及，不偏不倚，精细的恰到好处。庸，是而今的道理。所以感叹，四书，不是将近就行，而是分毫不差！四书就好似平庸中的的圆，不能无限比起，不可能会完全达到，是我们的最高渴求。

孟子感叹：民仰者，气质之仰也，可为善，可为不善。道家者，兼得理在里头面。“惟精”是无杂，“惟一”是有年连续性，乃能“允执厥中的”。

王阳明感叹：本仰之明，皎如白日，无有有过而不自知者，但中的风不能改耳。一念改过自新，当时即得本仰。彼其自以为民仰之惟危也，则其仰亦与人同耳。危即过也，惟其兢兢业业，尝加“精一”之功，是以能“允执厥中的”而免于过。

幸福于十一世，可以随波逐流，也可以明白到十一全球，改造十一全球！

然而“民仰惟危，道家惟微”，困难重重，唯有“惟精惟一“”，方能“允执厥中的”！

2022年，修仰，惟精惟一，允执厥中的！

Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.

This is the text of the Commencement address by Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple Computer and of Pixar Animation Studios

Delivered on June 12, 2005.

I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. I never graduated from college. Truth be told, this is the closest I've ever gotten to a college graduation. Today I want to tell you three stories from my life. That's it. No big deal. Just three stories.

The first story is about connecting the dots.

I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit. So why did I drop out?

It started before I was born. My biological mother was a young, unwed college graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption. She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife. Except that when I popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: "We he an unexpected baby boy; do you want him?" They said: "Of course." My biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father had never graduated from high school. She refused to sign the final adoption papers. She only relented a few months later when my parents promised that I would someday go to college.

And 17 years later I did go to college. But I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents' sings were being spent on my college tuition. After six months, I couldn't see the value in it. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out. And here I was spending all of the money my parents had sed their entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out OK. It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions I ever made. The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required classes that didn't interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting.

It wasn't all romantic. I didn't he a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends' rooms, I returned coke bottles for the 5￠ deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple. I loved it. And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on. Let me give you one example:

Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country. Throughout the campus every poster, every label on every drawer, was beautifully hand calligraphed. Because I had dropped out and didn't he to take the normal classes, I decided to take a calligraphy class to learn how to do this. I learned about serif and san serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great. It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can't capture, and I found it fascinating.

None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life. But ten years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back to me. And we designed it all into the Mac. It was the first computer with beautiful typography. If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would he never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. And since Windows just copied the Mac, its likely that no personal computer would he them. If I had never dropped out, I would he never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not he the wonderful typography that they do. Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college. But it was very, very clear looking backwards ten years later.

Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you he to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You he to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.

My second story is about love and loss.

I was lucky — I found what I loved to do early in life. Woz and I started Apple in my parents garage when I was 20. We worked hard, and in 10 years Apple had grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion company with over 4000 employees. We had just released our finest creation — the Macintosh — a year earlier, and I had just turned 30. And then I got fired. How can you get fired from a company you started? Well, as Apple grew we hired someone who I thought was very talented to run the company with me, and for the first year or so things went well. But then our visions of the future began to diverge and eventually we had a falling out. When we did, our Board of Directors sided with him. So at 30 I was out. And very publicly out. What had been the focus of my entire life was gone, and it was devastating.

I really didn't know what to do for a few months. I felt that I had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down - that I had dropped the baton as it was being passed to me. I met with Did Packard and Bob Noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly. I was a very public failure, and I even thought about running away from the valley. But something slowly began to dawn on me — I still loved what I did. The turn of events at Apple had not changed that one bit. I had been rejected, but I was still in love. And so I decided to start over.

I didn't see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could he ever happened to me. The heiness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.

During the next five years, I started a company named NeXT, another company named Pixar, and fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife. Pixar went on to create the worlds first computer animated feature film, Toy Story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world. In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought NeXT, I returned to Apple, and the technology we developed at NeXT is at the heart of Apple's current renaissance. And Laurene and I he a wonderful family together.

I'm pretty sure none of this would he happened if I hadn't been fired from Apple. It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it. Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith. I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. 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 hen'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. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle.

My third story is about death.

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 he 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, leing only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to oid the trap of thinking you he something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. I had a scan at 7:30 in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas. I didn't even know what a pancreas was. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that I should expect to live no longer than three to six months. My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctor's code for prepare to die. It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you'd he the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months. It means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family. It means to say your goodbyes.

I lived with that diagnosis all day. Later that evening I had a biopsy, where they stuck an endoscope down my throat, through my stomach and into my intestines, put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells from the tumor. I was sedated, but my wife, who was there, told me that when they viewed the cells under a microscope the doctors started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery. I had the surgery and I'm fine now.

This was the closest I've been to facing death, and I hope its the closest I get for a few more decades. Hing lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept:

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heen 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, he the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth Catalog, which was one of the bibles of my generation. It was created by a fellow named Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetic touch. This was in the late 1960's, before personal computers and desktop publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and polaroid cameras. It was sort of like Google in paperback form, 35 years before Google came along: it was idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions.

Stewart and his team put out several issues of The Whole Earth Catalog, and then when it had run its course, they put out a final issue. It was the mid-1970s, and I was your age. On the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road, the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous. Beneath it were the words: "Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish." It was their farewell message as they signed off. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. And I he always wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you.

Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.

Thank you all very much.
