Need to see this

As fellow networker Vincent Wright put it: we all need to see this video below.

HINT: it’s Randy Pausch’s “Last Public Lecture” entitled “Really achieving your childhood dreams”, delivered at Carnegie Mellon University in September 2007. This talk was modeled after an ongoing series of lectures where top academics were asked to think deeply about what matters to them, and then give a hypothetical “final talk”, i.e., “what wisdom would you try to impart to the world if you knew it was your last chance to do it?”.

Download the full speech in video, if you want it, from Dr. Gabriel Robins’ page about Randy.

LATER EDIT:

Vladimir Oane has something interesting to say about Randy. And check a newer post of mine about creativity in schools, as a child. Randy was allowed by parents to have it his way, and look where that got him.
