In the past, I have wondered about discussing personal thoughts in this blog. The answer in my mind was NO and I ve been focusing only on technical topics till date. However, there is a change of mind, thanks to my friend Manoj.
Thanks to him, I happened to see Prof. Randy Pausch’s brief 10 minute lecture in Oprah show. The contents of video is very powerful and motivated me to have a rethink. Please find the YouTube video embedded below.
For the full 76 minute video of the lecture in Carnegie Mellon University, please click the link below.
