Science, asked by kashishmorbia37, 1 month ago

Today, I want to tell you three stories from my life. That’s it. Just three stories. The first story is about

connecting the dots. I dropped out of Reed College after the first six months, but then stayed around as a drop-in

for another 18 months before I really quit. Looking back, it was one of the best decisions I ever made. I could stop

taking the required classes that didn’t interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting. I

didn’t have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends’ rooms. I returned Coke bottles for the 5 cent deposits to

buy food with, and I would walk seven miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at Hare Krishna temple. I loved it. And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to

be priceless later on. Here’s one example: Reed College offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the

country. Because I had to take a calligraphy class, I learned about serif and san serif typefaces, about what makes

great typography great. Ten years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back

to me. And we designed it all into the Mac. If I had never dropped in on that course in college the Mac would have

never had multiple typefaces or for that matter even proportionally spaced fonts. And since Windows just copied

Mac, it’s likely no personal computer would have them. Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking

forward when I was in college. But it was very clear looking backwards 10 years later. You can’t connect the dots

looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow

connect in your future. You have to trust in some things – your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach

has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.
