A brilliant man died recently.
I’ve mentioned Ryan Pausch and his fantastic Last Lecture here before, and wanted to mark his contribution again. It’s a poignant, uplifting, funny and empowering demonstration of what true confidence is all about, and he certainly made me think (and smile).
Surrounded by his family, he died at his home on July 25th.
Just check out this article and read some of the comments to see the impact he had – just stunning. If you haven’t seen it already you owe it to yourself to see what over 10 million people have seen.
Check out the Last Lecture and you’ll see what true confidence really means. You won’t regret it.

Great post Steve:
Randy Pausch was a true hero. He inspired a lot of us. I keep “The Last Lecture” book on my desk and look at when I’m feeling overwhelmed. Thinking about how Randy Pausch stayed positive and kep his sense of humor in the direst of circumstances helps me keep my little problems in perspective.
Also, I really like your blog! I’m going to subscribe as soon as I finish with this post.
All the best,

There’s most certainly some real gems to learn from him – I just hope I can remind myself of that when I need it. Thanks for the feedback Bud – loving your work too!
