Caution: dropping out doesn't guarantee you success. It's all about passion.

Do it from the heart or not at all.

He wasn’t a true dropout and he never stopped learning. He just didn’t adhere to or value the traditional college structure and many can relate to that

I'm lucky I had a computer science professor my freshman year who told me I was better off dropping out. Happy to say he was 100% correct 👍

My mom used to send me quotes from steve before she passed. Every time i see these inspirational messages from him i think of her😔

I didn't go to college. I'm 24, self taught designer/developer. Just bought my first home. Make 6 figures a year working fulltime+freelancing. Still working on my real dream of building and selling a software startup.

I’m a college drop out and founded my own theatre company. It’s all about passion

It’s really interesting what Steve Jobs said about dropping out.

He stopped taking required classes that didn’t interest him and went into classes that did interest him.

Students should be able to explore different things.

it's not about dropping out from college, it is about using your most productive years of life to what u really wanted to do and start progressing in that area as soon as possible

[ucwesley]

I just graduated from college and I don't know what to do with my degree. I've given it to my parents, now I'm chasing my passion.

I miss Steve 😢 he is truly an inspiration

In academics when you fail you are punished, in business failure can be rewarding so long as you learn from your mistakes. Many entrepreneurs will readily admit they learned much more from their mistakes than they did from their successes

I also took a very big decision in life but then all of my progress in job, career and earning had shrank down to zero. Lost my family life too. I was back to square one with no support, except I was safe at home having three meals a day. Depression started killing me from the inside. I was desperately looking for motivation, a helping hand or at least a listener who wont judge me but listen.

With all I was going through, one day I listened to Steve's speech and the lines, "Connect the dot backwards" hit me hard. I was naturally good at drawing in school days which I love doing the most. I then sharpened my drawing skills, learnt digital drawing and now I am a freelance designer. Now I'm having fun with colors and earning :).

Point is when twists happen in life, don't get twisted. "Why do we fall master bruce?. So we learn to pick ourselves up". I wish all good luck to overcome what they are up against and say, I made it!!. Just don't give up!!.

I dropped out of high school in the 9th grade and now i'm working as a truck diver. I earn about 1.5-1.7 euros per course and i'm very happy.

I’m crying while watching this. I’m very depressed in college and I don’t know what to do besides hang it there because my parents only listen to what society says. My passion isn’t nursing and I don’t see myself as one but I chose it because I was running out of time in senior year of high school to decide before I get to college. I find nursing interesting to learn new things about but I don’t find interest to be one.

After seeing this video don't drop out, if you have passion and clear vision for doing anything in life and do that while still you in college, if your idea is successful dropped the college start working full-time on your idea

[makwanbarzan]

I’m also probably dropping off of college this year but because of our family’s financial crisis not I don’t like it.
This is really encouraging me to make that decision fast.
I believe that there’s always something better waits for you.

I felt like I was personally attacked

[comicstwisted]

very touching how from out of the gate he refers to them as his parents and never adoptive parents
