The Last Lecture <\/em>Quotes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When computer science professor Randy Pausch was invited to deliver a \u201cLast Lecture\u201d at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh in September 2007, he\u2019d been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. The Last Lecture was a Carnegie Mellon speaker series in which professors were invited to present their philosophy of life, imagining the lecture was their last chance to share personal and professional life lessons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Pausch\u2019s case, it really was<\/em> a last chance to impart life lessons\u2014he\u2019d been given just months to live. But more importantly, he viewed the lecture as his legacy for his three young children, who would grow up without him there to guide them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below are seven The Last Lecture <\/em>quotes from Randy Pausch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe key question to keep asking is, Are you spending your time on the right things? Because time is all you have. \u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The fist of The Last Lecture <\/em>quotes talks about the importance of time. Even before he got cancer, Pausch believed strongly in managing time well and emphasized this to his students. He believed that spending time on irrelevant details in life is as useless as polishing the underside of a banister. Pausch encouraged things such as, making a to-do list<\/a>, prioritizing the most important things, delegating tasks, and taking time off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pausch\u2019s diagnosis reinforced his belief that time is a precious asset. Cancer also taught him that time is finite and you may not have as much as you think<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cShowing gratitude is one of the simplest yet most powerful things humans can do for each other.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

When people give you their time and attention, write them a thank-you note. You\u2019ll stand out because thank-you notes are rare, which may benefit you in the future. But more importantly, showing gratitude is a sign of character. If you can\u2019t adequately pay someone back for a kindness, pay it forward. Pausch made a point of showing gratitude in both large and small ways. For instance, he sent cookies to colleagues who reviewed journal articles for him. Also, after receiving tenure, Pausch thanked his research team for their contribution to his success by taking them on a week-long trip to Disney World.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cToo many people go through life complaining about their problems. I’ve always believed that if you took one tenth the energy you put into complaining and applied it to solving the problem, you’d be surprised by how well things can work out.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The third of The Last Lecture <\/em>quotes discusses the problem with complaining. Complaining doesn\u2019t advance your goals or make you happier. When you run into challenges, work harder rather than complaining. Jackie Robinson, the first African-American to play Major League baseball, knew he had to work harder than white players and, despite harassment from fans, that\u2019s what he did.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

”When you\u2019re screwing up and nobody says anything to you anymore, that means they\u2019ve given up on you.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

That was the advice an assistant coach gave Pausch after a practice in which the coach had pushed him hard. Your critics are often the ones who care about you and want you to improve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPeople are more important than things.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Before he was married, Pausch enjoyed being an uncle to his sister\u2019s two children. He took the role seriously, trying to teach them life lessons and new ways of thinking. He had two rules for their outings: don\u2019t whine and don\u2019t tell mom what they\u2019d done with their uncle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once, when the kids were seven and nine, he picked them up in his new convertible. As they climbed in, their mother warned them not to get it dirty. Hearing this, Pausch calmly opened a can of soda and poured it onto the cloth-covered back seats. His message was that a car is just a possession\u2014and people are more important than things<\/strong>. Later that weekend, when his nephew got the flu and threw up on the car seat, Pausch was glad he\u2019d delivered that message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAre you a Tigger or an Eeyore?\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Pausch believed everyone has a choice in life to be like one of two Winnie-the-Pooh<\/em> characters: you can be like fun-loving, exuberant Tigger or like gloomy Eeyore.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Throughout his life, Pausch was a Tigger, looking for the fun in everything. Even having cancer didn\u2019t turn him into an Eeyore\u2014he made a point of having fun<\/a> each day he had left. Pausch vowed to hold onto his Tigger persona to the end, saying there wasn\u2019t any \u201cupside\u201d to being a sad Eeyore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

”<\/strong>If I could only give three words of advice, they would be \u2018tell the truth.\u2019 If I got three more words, I\u2019d add: \u2018All the time.\u2019 My parents taught me that \u2018you\u2019re only as good as your word,\u2019 and there\u2019s no better way to say it.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The last of the 7 The Last Lecture <\/em>quotes is about honesty. People often lie to avoid expending effort and they usually think they got away with it. But most often, they didn\u2019t. The people you lie to always remember it and tell others<\/strong>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
