Steve Jobs Life By Design

Steve Jobs Life By Design – by George Beahm is a book that uses Steve Jobs’ 2005 Stanford commencement address as a framework to explore and expand on the key life and business lessons from his career. The book is structured around the “three stories” Jobs shared in his famous 2005 speech: “Connecting the Dots,” “Love and Loss,” and “Remembering That I Will Be Dead Soon”. George Beahm uses these themes as a starting point to connect various episodes, philosophies, and moments from Jobs’ personal and professional life, offering examples and context to illustrate the vision behind his ideas. Reviewers note that while the book revolves around this one speech, reading between the chapters provides a satisfying deep dive into the “life by design” philosophy.
