"You have to trust in something, your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. Because believing that the dots will connect down the road will give you the confidence to follow your heart- even when it leads you off the well worn path. And, that will make all the difference."
Steve Jobs


Entrepreneur, Steve Jobs founded Apple Computer Co. in his family's garage, when he was just 21 years old. Within four years his love for technology and innovation helped him revolutionize the personal computer. Jobs, the college dropout from humble beginnings, became a multi-millionaire, and a well-respected voice in the business world. But then, he was fired.

After he was publicly let go from the company he created, Steve Jobs picked himself up, and continued to create great businesses (like NeXT and Pixar) and products, which eventually led Apple to hire him back as its CEO. With Steve Jobs at the helm for the second time, Apple continued to push the limits of what was possible, and brought innovative products like iTunes, iPod, iPhone, iWorks, iLife, and iPad to consumers all over the world. Throughout the years, Steve Jobs has shared his remarkable story and business insight through speeches, interviews, and keynote addresses. The team here at BrandMakerNews compiled ten inspiring bits of wisdom from Steve Jobs to encourage you to follow your heart as you build your own business empire.

1. Embrace the opportunity in every situation. "Getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, and less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life."

This is a story of timely relevance. It is about a hot dog vendor who could have made it big. He almost did, but then he lost his nerve. This man, lets call him Fred, suffered from poor eyesight, so he didn't watch television or read the newspapers. He was also hard of hearing, so he didn't listen to the radio either. But he made good hot dogs.

Every morning, at the crack of dawn, Fred visited the market where he stocked up with the best-quality sausages and the freshest rolls available. And before office commuters hit the streets on their way to work, he took up his position at a busy intersection.

"Lovely morning, Sir, don't you want to buy a hot dog?" he would say when a man passed by. "You look especially lovely today, Madam, don't you want to buy a hot dog?" he would call out to passing females. And because his stall looked clean and inviting and the smells that emanated from his sausage cooker were seductive, few passers-by could not resist.
