“Have you figured out the second head fake?”

Said Randy Pausch (a well-known life coach) and continued, “The talk’s not for you. It’s for my kids”. Randy even wrote a book called ‘The last lecture’, that I will certainly still have to read (it’s on my bucket list), which contains many motivational quotes and inspirational life lessons for everyone. Before the ‘second head fake’, Randy wrote about the ‘head fake’, which he explained that ‘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.’

Life Lesson no. 53

A quote from Randy that caught my attention was ‘Experience is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted.’ What I take from this quote is that experience is the knowledge you gain while working hard even if the end result is not what you wanted.’ The quote: “Do not tell people how to live their lives. Just tell them stories. And they will figure out how those stories apply to them”, is one that we all should take into consideration as it is their life to live and it would up to them to figure out how to apply those lessons.
