"It's not about how to achieve your dreams, it's about how to lead your life. If you lead your life the right way the Karma will take care of itself; the dreams will come to you."
-Randy Pausch
Randy Pausch will probably be dead in as few as three months. Watch this news story on his final lecture at Carneige/Mellon.
And if that got your attention, you can watch the whole lecture by following the link on this page: http://www.etc.cmu.edu/global_news/?q=node/42.
I have to hope that people learn about Randy and aspire to emulate him. It's a complete shame that the world and especially his family is losing him.

Hmm.. maybe if my kids would have wrote something that cool on their walls I wouldn't have put them on restriction.
Awesome guy!!!
Some lessons from Randy Pausch’s last lecture that especially moved me:
1. Brick walls are there for a reason: they let us prove how badly we want things.
2. Experience is what you get when you didn’t get what you wanted.
3. Never lose the child-like wonder.
4. If we do something which is pioneering, we will get arrows in the back. But at the end of the day, a whole lot of people will have a whole lot of fun.
5. Be good at something; it makes you valuable.
6. If you live your life the right way, the karma will take care of itself, and the dreams will come to you.
