Steve Jobs died Reason
In 2009, Steve Jobs was lying unconscious in a hospital after a liver transplant. The doctor looked at Steve and said, “Wear this oxygen mask, Steve, Steve Jobs, its design is not right.” Steve Jobs asked his caretakers to bring five new options for the design of the mask so that he could choose the best choice from them. This may sound a bit strange to us, but he used to make such decisions in his daily life and this quality eventually became the reason for his death because when the doctors asked him for an operation, he delayed the operation, which led to his death. And before dying, Steve Jobs’ last words were “O wow O wow O wow.”
Steve Paul Jobs was born on 24 February 1955 in San Francisco, US. He changed into quickly giving up for adoption, making Clara and Paul Jobs his adoptive mother and father. Steve had been very curious since childhood. His biographer Walter Ice Saxon writes that because of this habit of his, two big accidents happened to him in his childhood. Once, he put a metal pin in an electric socket due to which his hand got completely burnt and the second thing was that he had to go through a lot of accidents. That is when he ate poison to see what would happen, which led to him being rushed to the emergency room and he survived. Shortly after, his new family moved from San Francisco to California.
When his schooling started there, he found classes very boring. To overcome this boredom, he used to do some other things in school. Once he released a snake in his class and once, he exploded a bomb under his teacher’s table. Due to these antics, he was repeatedly sent back home from school, but his parents did not scold him even once. Later Steve admitted that this school taught a very stupid syllabus, due to which he never wanted to study.
Now when Steve Jobs was in the fourth standard, his teacher noticed that the syllabus was extremely easy for Steve Jobs, so he suggested to Steve’s parents that Steve should be admitted to the sixth standard, skipping two classes instead of the fourth class. Initially, Steve’s parents did not accept this thing, but finally got Steve admitted to the sixth standard in another school. Now Steve is studying in the sixth standard in another school. He used to fight a lot with the children in his class because he was incredibly young there.
Once Steve Jobs got so tired that he came home and told his parents to please take me out of school otherwise I would never go there. His school life was like this but because he grew up in Silicon Valley, many engineers lived around him. One of those engineers was named Larry Lang who later became an exceptional mentor of Steve Jobs.
Once Larry showed Steve a remarkably interesting experiment. He took a carbon microphone, a battery, and a speaker and put it in his car and started speaking something in the mic and this sound was coming very loudly in the speaker. Now Steve Jobs’s father had told Steve that this work could not be done without an electronic amplifier, but Larry’s system was working without electricity. Steve Jobs ran home and argued with his father on this matter. When his father did not agree, Steve took his father to Larry’s house and proved to his dad that sound could be increased without an amplifier. Larry was overly impressed and in the coming years, Larry taught Steve a lot about electronics. For example, once he also introduced Steve to a health kit. These were kits that had detailed instructions for making items like television receivers and radio equipment. These kits not only taught Steve how these things worked but also convinced young Steve that even things that looked like television and radio were easy and could be understood.
Well, as soon as Steve turned seventeen, he was put into college because he had promised Steve’s actual parents. Now Steve’s parents found a college that was as expensive as Stanford in which Steve’s parents had spent their entire life’s earnings. They were putting in this and Steve Jobs did not like this at all. Steve Jobs says in his Stanford commencement speech that time I did not know what I wanted to do in my life and neither this college could help me in this, so I decided to drop out. At that time, this decision seemed very scary to me but today when I look back, it was the best decision of my life.
When Steve dropped out, he used to sleep in the gallery of his friends. He used to eat by selling empty Coke cans and used to walk 7 km every Sunday to eat food in Hare Krishna Temple. But the biggest advantage of this was that he did not have to follow the classes of the college course, rather he used to go and sit in the class that he liked. For example, Reed College used to provide the best course in calligraphy in the whole country at that time.
Steve Jobs liked calligraphy so much. He decided to take classes for this, at this stage he did not know that it would be especially useful in his life, and because of this decision, later, he also used it. He liked this thing very much.
Steve says that Intu is a more powerful thing than Intellect When he came back from India to America, he launched apple365. bet his first product with this Intu It had become a billion dollar company i.e. 88000 crores Now making this billion-dollar company was not that easy because in 1984 when Steve was 29 years old, at that time he launched his best creation Mac which we call Mac today after which he was fired from his own company Actually what happened was that Steve Jobs wanted to launch a new version of Mac which was going to cost a lot of money but John Skelly, whom Steve Jobs had hired to run Pepsi-Cola but the studio was not able to do any innovation after Pixar’s departure so Apple’s Back to apple’s company that what we should not do is that he goes to the whiteboard and asks his employees tell me your top 10 things.
After this Jobs notes down the suggestions of the team members. After that, he asks his team to write these ten things in decreasing order of importance. Then he cuts out the last seven things from these and says that we will focus only on these top three things. This sharp focus was the strongest part of his personality and with this quality, only Larry Page came to him for advice. Larry Page Google suggested Larry that you should figure out that Google3 Pech followed his advice and similarly his important quality was his crazy craze for perfection. For example, when he was the CEO of Wendell told Steve that he could use Gorilla Glass. Steve told Wendell that You can produce as many Gorilla Glasses as you can, we will buy them all, and finally, an amazing phone was launched which we call it. At that time, whoever used this product, only one thing came to their mind, wow what an amazing product it is.
When I was launched for the first time, I got two iPhones, I sent one to them. Well done, what a wonderful thing it is. Jobs learned this quality of perfection from his father. Once Steve Jobs and his dad were painting the cabinet. After the front side was painted, Jobs stopped painting. On this, his dad said, who will paint the back side of this? On this, little Steve said, but dad, no one will see the back side, no one will know. On this, his dad said, yes, no one will know, but you So, you know, this thing remained in Steve Jobs’ mind since childhood. Jobs applied this lesson to the circuit board of a machine as well. He told his engineers to arrange the chips so neatly that the circuit board looked neat and clean. Jobs’ feedback surprised his engineers because the circuit board had to fit very tightly inside the machine. The chip was never to be visible to any consumer, nor was there to be any difference in the appearance of the computer due to the chip. But still, Steve Jobs did not agree, and the engineers had to agree with him. His craze for perfection was so high that he was not even able to buy furniture for his house. Due to not getting the perfect furniture, he kept extraordinarily little furniture in the house.
In 2003, Steve Jobs had a stomachache, and the scan revealed that he had a tumor in his pancreas. The doctor said that the more he did the better, the better. It is not dangerous but still, he was told to get the operation done as soon as possible. Steve Jobs neglected it because he thought that if he diverted his attention from it, it would get cured. Now this quality was useful in making good products in his company but due to this delay of 6 months, his cancer spread in many places and now it was too late. When Steve Jobs came to know that he had pancreas cancer and he did not have much time left in this world, he called Walter S. Axson and said I want you to write a book on me, on this Walter S. Axson refused.
He said that you are still at the peak of your career, you have a lot to achieve, and I will author a book on you after 10-15 years and he disconnected the call. After this Steve Jobs’s wife called Walter S. Acheson and told him about Steve’s illness. On this Walter S. Acheson agreed to author a book on Steve and Steve gave Walter Acheson a place in the guest room of his house where Walter Acheson lived, and he used to come to Steve Jobs every day and ask him many questions. Steve Jobs knew that he would never be able to read this book, but he wanted to tell his version to the world. Finally, the time came which everyone was afraid of. Steve Jobs’s first text word was always O wow O wow O wow. By the time he died in October 2011, he was Apple. In’s net worth was 3.6 trillion dollars. There are many more books written on Steve Jobs, but Walter Eisen’s book has the stories that Steve told Eisen.
