I have never given a thought to the personal lives of many of the successful people. How their personal lives have affected and influenced their professional success. I recentlyread the text of the speech by Steve Jobs at Stanford University. It was really an inspirational one embellished with emotions.
While reading the article, I was reminded of Kartik Gurusamy for his courage to do what he wants (possibly loves).
In this regard I would like to classify people in to three categories. One, those who do what they love. In this category, I know only KG. Two, those who do what they have to. Satyasai, the most brilliant person I have personally interacted with, fits in here. Three, those who do what they do not realise are doing. I dare not mention the name of such people in public. Four, those who do whatever comes their way. Most of us fall in this category.
A person who is presently successful would either have struggled to get there or normally reached that position because of lot many other factors. So what is special about Jobs? I do not know the answer. Even more baffling to me, what does "Stay Hungry Stay Foolish" mean?
