Steve Jobs’s Top 10 Rules for Success

Steve Jobs was an American businessman, inventor, and industrial designer. He was the co-founder, chairman, and chief executive officer (CEO) of Apple Inc. He was widely recognized as a pioneer of the personal computer revolution and the modern smartphone industry, along with the development of animated movies and music. He was also co-founder and chairman of Pixar Animation Studios.

Jobs was born in San Francisco, California, and was adopted by Paul and Clara Jobs. He attended Homestead High School in Cupertino, California and later attended Reed College in Portland, Oregon before dropping out after six months. He then returned to California and took a job as a technician at Atari, a manufacturer of popular video games.

In 1976, Jobs co-founded Apple Computer, Inc. with Steve Wozniak, and the company’s first computer, the Apple I, went on sale the following year. Apple introduced several revolutionary products, including the Macintosh in 1984, which marked the beginning of the decline of the dominant IBM PC. He stepped down as CEO of Apple in 1985, but returned to the company in 1996, becoming CEO once again and introducing new products such as the iMac, iTunes, and the iPhone.

Jobs passed away on October 5, 2011 due to complications from pancreatic cancer. His death was widely mourned, and he was widely acknowledged as a visionary leader and a driving force behind the development of the personal computer industry and the popularization of smartphones and tablet computers. He has been widely recognized for his influence on technology, business, and design and for his charismatic personality.

Steve Jobs Quotes

  • “When you’re a carpenter making a beautiful chest of drawers, you’re not going to use a piece of plywood on the back, even though it faces the wall and nobody will see it. You’ll know it’s there, so you’re going to use a beautiful piece of wood on the back. For you to sleep well at night, the aesthetic, the quality, has to be carried all the way through.” ~Steve Jobs
  • “I think part of what made the Macintosh great was that the people working on it were musicians and poets and artists and zoologists and historians who also happened to be the best computer scientists in the world.” ~Steve Jobs
  • “You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backward. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.”
  • “Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.”  ~Steve Jobs
  • “For the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: ‘If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?’ And whenever the answer has been no for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.” ~Steve Jobs
  • “Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.” ~Steve Jobs
