Loading... Has life of Steve Jobs any impact on your life?

If we consider the products he helped to produce then we realize that he has had a tremendous impact on all our lives whether we are aware of it or not. Anything that Apple developed has influenced other companies, the way we buy music online, and how we regard phones in general (as small "do it all" tools).

But Jobs has inspired me without my having to practice his difficult lifestyle. He may have been a prickly jerk, but demanding perfection produced key features of excellent gadgets. It's easy to disapprove of his behaviour in business meetings without losing sight of the end results: tools that are beginning to shape the future.

I have read a book about Steve Job's by J. Young and W. Simon. And my opinion about S. Jobs is quite negative. It seems that he was a person without a feelings to other. Yes, the company he created is great. He must me an example to be followed, but something stops me from doing that. S. Jobs was a great leader with remarkable leadership skills and charisma, but he had lost something while achieving this skills. So my answer is no, S. Jobs had no impact on my life and I do not follow his life style.

I think that this pictures says it all:

Thanks for the question. Steve Jobs has had a tremendous impact on my life. His approach to problem solving and focus. I've learned to take a multitude of diverse experiences and focus them into the creative process. In doing so you usually come out with ideas that are innovative, functionally designed, and high quality.

Another way I've benefited from the life of Steve Jobs is by looking at his early career. Before there was an Apple. He started his company in a garage. Rejected many times yet believed in his idea because he could see what many others would not see. This type of attitude is something I admire and incorporate into my existence.

Who? Never heard of him. He has never hit my life and never had any effect on it.
