In my opinion, positive thinking, optimistic attitude is the way Steve Jobs succeeded. No matter how tough the life is, we just believe that all the things we go through will be fine. "You've got to find what your love" Jobs said. As far as I'm concerned, all the people need to have a goal. If we don't have any goals, we would probably get lost. It is the most important things that we need to find in our college's life. Lastly, we must enjoy our life and don't waste it."Stay hungry, Stay foolish"
