Written with reporter Jeffrey Zaslow, the best-selling book is an expanded version of a \u201cLast Lecture\u201d Pausch gave in 2007, after being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The \u201cLast Lecture\u201d series was a tradition in which professors presented their philosophy of life, as if it were their last chance to share what was important to them. It truly was a last chance for Pausch, who had only months to live. His book and lecture, which went viral and has been viewed by millions, are about living your dreams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These <em>The Last Lecture <\/em>discussion questions cover the major points from Dr. Pausch&#8217;s speech.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Your Last Lecture<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Carnegie Mellon University and others have a tradition of inviting professors to present a \u201cLast Lecture,\u201d as though it were their last chance to share personal and professional life lessons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>If you were invited to give a \u201cLast Lecture,\u201d what would your title be? What sentence or phrase sums up your life so far?<\/li><li>Think of a memorable life lesson you could include in your \u201clast lecture.\u201d Was it a success or failure? What was it?<\/li><li>If you knew you had only a few months to live, what would your No. 1 priority be and why?<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Was Your Dream?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The following <em>The Last Lecture <\/em>discussion questions are about following your childhood dreams. Randy Pausch achieved his childhood dreams, partly by staying in touch with them and continuing to nurture his imagination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Describe your most memorable childhood dream or aspiration. How old were you when you had it? What did you do with it?<\/li><li>As an adult, did you achieve it or some version of it? How?<\/li><li>Think of a child in your life. How can you encourage his or her dream?<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Brick Walls<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Pausch liked to tell his students that when you run into brick walls, they\u2019re an opportunity for you to demonstrate how badly you want something.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Think of a time when something threatened to prevent you from getting what you wanted. What did you want and what was the obstacle?<\/li><li>What was your first reaction? Did you question whether you really wanted it or start thinking of ways around the obstacle? What did you end up doing?<\/li><li>What\u2019s another brick wall you currently face? What action will you take and why?<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tigger or Eeyore?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Pausch was a huge fan of Disney so these <em>The Last Lecture <\/em>discussion questions relate to Disney personalities. During his lecture, Pausch urged his audience to choose which <em>Winnie-the-Pooh<\/em> character they wanted to be\u2014the exuberant Tigger or gloomy Eeyore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Are you mostly a Tigger or an Eeyore? Why do you say that?<\/li><li>How has a Tigger or Eeyore outlook affected your life? Give an example.<\/li><li>Think of a situation in your life that you approached with an Eeyore-like attitude. How would approaching it as a Tigger have been different?<\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you looking for The Last Lecture discussion questions?
