We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand.

“We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand.”
–Randy Pausch

This is the “Last Lecture” by Randy Pausch. Pausch is a professor at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU). In 2006 he was diagnosed with cancer, and in August 2007 was told he only had three to six months left to live. On September 18, 2007 he gave his “Last Public Lecture”, entitled “Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams”



Wow if I ever feel like I don't want to approach anymore or I'm not getting to where I want to be fast enough, I really need to watch this video and realise I only get one chance at life and I really dont want to waste it by failing to go after what I really want in life and getting to where I want to be.
