Randy Pauch, a professor of computer science, human-computer interaction, and design at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, gave his last lecture before he died, in September 2007, beautifully dealing with the value of time and about the value of life. “Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams” was the title he gave to his lecture, and it wasn’t about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because “time is all you have…and you may find one day that you have less than you think”). The lecture, which was later published in a book, indicates that talking about death and talking about life is the same thing. In the following ten-minute video, you can watch a repetition of this speech in brief. Worth every single minute! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LM3Ci45Iv-8
