7 Amazing Life Lessons from Oprah Winfrey

Oprah Winfrey is an American television host, producer, and philanthropist, most known for her self-titled, multi-award winning talk show, which has become the highest-rated program of its kind in history.

7 Amazing Life Lessons from Oprah:

1. See What You Want to Be

“When I look into the future, it’s so bright it burns my eyes.”

What do you see when you look into your future, because what you see is what you’re going to get.  Do you see your future so bright it burns your eyes?  If you do, then that’s what you’re going to get.  If you see your future as mundane, then that’s exactly what you’ll get as well.  What you see is what you get; I suggest you begin to see what you want to be.

2. The Power of Passion

“Passion is energy. Feel the power that comes from focusing on what excites you.”

Passion comes from doing what you love.  When you’re passionate you can work all night long.  Passion is power, it the fuel that you need to succeed.  Discover your passion and dedicate your life to fulfilling it, no matter how long it takes.

What I learned from Steve Jobs

Many people have explained what one can learn from Steve Jobs. Guy Kawasaki was there with Jobs, launching the Macintosh and absorbing everything he could from Jobs' singular collection of talents. Here's Kawasaki's list of the top 12 lessons he learned from Steve Jobs.

1. Experts are clueless
Experts—journalists, analysts, consultants, bankers, and gurus can’t “do” so they “advise.” They can tell you what is wrong with your product, but they cannot make a great one. They can tell you how to sell something, but they cannot sell it themselves. They can tell you how to create great teams, but they only manage a secretary. For example, the experts told us that the two biggest shortcomings of Macintosh in the mid 1980s were the lack of a daisy-wheel printer driver and Lotus 1-2-3; another advice gem from the experts was to buy Compaq. Hear what experts say, but don’t always listen to them.

2. Customers cannot tell you what they need
“Apple market research” is an oxymoron. The Apple focus group was the right hemisphere of Steve’s brain talking to the left one. If you ask customers what they want, they will tell you, “Better, faster, and cheaper”—that is, better sameness, not revolutionary change. They can describe their desires only in terms of what they are already using—around the time of the introduction of Macintosh, all that people said they wanted was a better, faster, and cheaper MS-DOS machine. The richest vein for tech startups is creating the product that you want to use—that’s what Steve and Woz did.

3. Jump to the next curve

The price of time 

To find out the price of a year, ask a student who failed the exam.

To find out the price of a month,  ask a mother who gave birth prematurely.

To find out the price of a week, ask an editor of a weekly magazine.

To find out the price of an hour, ask a lover who’s waiting his beloved one.

To find out the price of a minute, ask a man who missed the train.

To find out the price of a second, ask a man, that lost a close friend in a car accident.

To find out the price of  a millisecond, ask a silver medallist of the Olympic Games.

Traditional education VS founding a company 

Traditional education is not that important as many people think. The statistics gives us a totally different view on formal education. According to Forbes, 20% of American millionaires haven’t taken even one university class and 21 of 222 billionaires (in 2003)  have no university degree. (by the way, 2 of them didn’t even finish school !). 

Larry Elison ($39,5 billion), the founder of Oracle dropped out the University of Illinois. 

Bill Gates ($56 billion) dropped out Harvard, and later founded Microsoft. 

Richard Branson left school when he was 16 years old. ($7 billion).
