  5. I wrote the commencement address I needed to hear at 22: "It's Never Too Late to Stop Waiting for Someday." The key insight? You don't have to choose between security and dreams - you can pursue both simultaneously. Break free from all-or-nothing thinking and start where you are, with what you have, right now. Advice for graduates and anyone standing at a crossroads.

  6. How Steve Jobs wrote the greatest commencement speech ever…

    Steven Levy has one of the best reads of this week: How Steve Jobs Wrote the Greatest Commencement Speech Ever. People might disagree, but it moved me when I first heard. I wish I’d heard it during my own graduation in 2005. But, I first listened to this in 2006 after Google acquired YouTube and I started using YouTube a lot more. It was mesmerizing.

    I have not stayed true to every recommendation from Steve in the speech. However, it changed me to pursue a life in technology, make a dent in the universe and stay true to leaving the world a better place. I am inventing my own future, finally.

    Steve Jobs Archive also released a great set of emails that Steve emailed himself as he prepared and thought about this for almost 6 months. Honestly, this was the most interesting part of the email archive and the article. It shows Steve not as the sure-footed master presenter as we often got to see him. It highlights a thoughtful person who’s trusting the process of moving the needle forward a day at a time. Thoughtfulness is a skill. It requires time, practice and I really wish I’d started it sooner than I have.

  7. Happy Grad School Graduation anniversary to me. 🎓

    Some years ago in Baltimore I finally put grad school in my rear-view mirror. I had worked 20+ part-time and 3 full-time jobs to get there. I treated myself to two ceremonies: one for Johns Hopkins and one for Peabody Conservatory.

    An unexpected highlight was getting to meet James Van Allen, discoverer of Earth’s radiation belts. He was awarded an honorary doctorate by JHU that day so, in a way, he’s my classmate.

    🍾 Semper sint in flore!

  12. Trump told West Point grads at commencement: “A lot of TROPHY WIVES doesn’t work out. (sic) But it made them happy for a little while at least.”

    Dead silence.

  13. Big Event This Weekend

    There is a big deal happening this weekend. It’s been four years in the making. I guess technically it has been 22 years in the making but it’s the last four that really count.

    My step son, Harry, is graduating from college! The University of Vermont’s commencement weekend festivities kick off tomorrow and I am so proud of Harry that I legitimately fear that I am going to spontaneously combust. Like, ka-boom and stuff. He has grown up to be such a fine human. Brilliant, kind, a deep seated hatred of donald trump the orange shit clown. He’s a far better man than I am, and this weekend is all about him. A Bachelors Degree in Psychology. Good work, Harry!

    We’re heading up to Vermont as soon as I punch out of work tonight. I can’t wait to spend the weekend celebrating Harry and his accomplishment. It’s going to be a great time… even though… the forecast is calling for rain during the Sunday morning outdoor commencement ceremony. That might suck. Everything else though, I can’t wait!

  15. Celebrating the accomplishments and #commencement of 2,400+ #MTSU graduates 🎓 with Mace Carrier Dr. Hanna Terletska. #Physics #Chemistry

  16. Last night I went on a pub crawl with some good friends to celebrate my masters commencement. A baccalaureate's party, one might say: a last hurrah before I commit to a life of mastering.

    Fantastic time.

  17. Thomas Jefferson Hanks, Doctor of Arts, Harvard U 🎓 🗞️

    Truth, Justice, and the American Way

    “In the never-ending battle you have all officially joined as of today, the difference is in how truly you believe, in how vociferously you promote, in how tightly you hold to the truth that is self-evident: that of course we are all created equally yet differently, and of course we are all in this together,”
