You've got to find what you love

この前父親からこれ読んでみろと渡された。
2005年スタンフォード大の卒業式でのスティーブ・ジョブズ(アップル・コンピュータ及びピクサー・アニメーション・スタジオ)の祝辞。
自分の経験から得た3つのストーリーを話すというシンプルな構成だけど、軽い語り口の中にものすごいメッセージが込められていていたく納得&感動した。素晴らしいスピーチだと思う。
最近働くことって何だろうとか将来のことについて考えることが多かったので、”Don't settle”という言葉がすごく染みた。教えてくれた父親に感謝。
以下一部引用します。

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 haven'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.
