Do you know that Apple co-founder, Steve Jobs dropped out of Reed College which was an elite liberal-arts school in Portland, Oregon? He was doing lots of LSD (drug) and learning about spirituality. What happened to him next?
Jobs exclaims that he did not consider any value in paying for an expensive college when he did not know what he wished.
So, when he dropped out his process of improving himself did not stop. He used to sleep on the floors in friend’s rooms, live a non-social lifestyle, and return soda bottles for spare change, and peek in the creative classes he was interested to take in at Reed College, like Calligraphy.
“If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts,” Jobs said during his commencement address at Stanford in 2005.
“And since Windows just copied the Mac, it’s likely that no personal computer would have them. If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do.”
