Have you heard about The Last Lecture? I had but because it sounded like another one of those “media” hypes — you know the ones where some guy gets his “Andy Warhol 10 seconds (or was it minutes …) of fame” — I ignored it.
But when a client sent me the links to Pausch’s videos and said I had to listen (thanks, Lynn), I wondered if maybe I was missing something. And I was.
I found myself laughing out loud (which is a little embarrassing when you’re alone in front of a computer) by his Lecture. Then I was in tears (HONESTLY!) by his sincerity and remarkable attitude. Listen to Randy Pausch’s thoughts on dying, advocacy and what dreams do for you.
Randy makes so many simple and yet profound points. Here are my top 3
- Pancreatic cancer isn’t getting attention because people die before they can advocate.
- This is not a disease that you could have avoided if you’d taken better care of yourself.
- Research is underfunded and what’s there, focuses on treatment rather than cure.
