Stay hungry Stay foolish (2)

Let's continue with Steve Jobs' second story which is about Love and Loss.
After 10 years of hardworking to have gained great success in Apple, he got fired at the age of 30. He was kicked off by the company he created and operated successfully. According to him in his speech, "How can you get fired from a company you started?" How ridiculous! And what a great loss!
He began to think it over. During the reflective thinking, he found himself still loving what he did. So he decided to start over. He tells his audience that " getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me." Here he regards loss as a great opportunity. He didn't give up love and faith. He started NeXT, a company which was later bought by Apple. In this way , he returned to Apple again.
There must have loss or setback in our life. Steve Jobs teaches us how to handle with that, which is "Don't lose faith."  And with that, we've got to find love in either what we do or in relationship. 
" Keep looking until you find it. Don't settle."

You are right, there are lots of setbacks and difficulties in our life. We should conquer them, not conquered by them.

U are right, we can not be defeated by the difficulties me met. We should stand up again after falling down.

Love and loss seem to be unrelated, but they are coherent. Facing with setback, we need love to summon our courage to walk out of it.
