Randy Pausch-The Last Lecture: Achieving Your Childhood Dreams

Randy Pausch-The Last Lecture
If you ever feel like you're having a bad day, week, month, year...watch this video and in just one hour, you will feel better, appreciate all that you have.  Appreciate life.

Someone introduced me to "The Last Lecture" about four years ago, and if you haven't seen this inspirational "lecture," I highly recommend you take an hour to watch it.  If you have seen this video before, like any great piece of work...it's worthy of another view.

Randy Pausch was a computer science and human computer interaction and design professor at Carnegie Mellon University.  "The Last Lecture" was an annual event at Carnegie Mellon, which professors would contemplate if they were given only 6 months to live, what would you say, what would you do, how would you live that life?  Unfortunately, for Randy, this was his reality, as he was diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer and was given 3-6 months of good health to live.  His lecture was captured on video and downloaded over 15 Millions times since then.

"The Last Lecture" was moving...inspirational...funny...a must-see for all!  (Note: Have lots of Kleenex on hand!)
