Achieving your childhood dreams

Do you know Randy Pausch? He is a Professor at Carnegie Mellon University and recently gave his last lecture on September 18, 2007. Last Lecture series is kind of popular in North American Universities now wherein top notch leaders are invited to give their last lecture, which turns out to be the best lecture ever by the respective individuals.

Randy Pausch (46) is terminally ill. He is afflicted by pancreatic cancer and the doctors have given him 3 to 6 months of good health. But, you will not hear about it in his lecture. Though titled achieving ones childhood dreams, it is about leading our lives. Please do take the time to see the entire lecture, it is bound to have an positive impact on you.
