If you haven’t seen Pausch’s ‘Last Lecture’ — don’t wait another minute
If you haven’t yet seen the YouTube video of Prof. Randy Pausch’s “Last Lecture” — don’t wait another minute. I’ve put it in this post so you don’t even need to locate it on YouTube. You can watch it right here.Prof. Pausch was a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon University who was diagnosed with terminal cancer and told he had only 3-6 months left to live shortly before he did this video as part of a “Last Lecture” program at the university. As it turns out, he lived almost a year after the lecture — and you’ll discover watching this video that he REALLY knew how to live.
On a personal note, my wife and I watched this hour-and-a-quarter-long video for the first time just this afternoon. We procrastinated even though we’ve had more than one friend and family member tell us it was truly “life changing” for them. I don’t know if it was exactly life changing for us — but it was one of those events that will have a lasting impact on me and the way I approach life in general.
But don’t waste your time listening to me explain what’s going on, get started with the video and find all that out for yourself:
