Throughout Steve Jobs’ address, there was a common theme that really made an impact on me. Trust. Jobs said, “You have to trust in something, your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever.” He also said, “So you have to trust that the dots will connect in your future.” These quotations really stood out to me because the most important thing people should do is believe in themselves and trust their gut.
I think the part in his speech that connected most to IMM was when he was talking about taking a calligraphy course and applying it on the Mac. In IMM, we are exposed to so many different courses, that allow us to work on various skills. Applying all these skills to whatever we want to do in life – even something as minor as typography – still makes an incredible difference.
