Powerful words from Steve Jobs on his sick bed

Powerful message.
Steve Jobs’ Last Words -


I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world.
In others’ eyes, my life is an epitome of success.

However, aside from work, I have little joy. In the end, wealth is only a fact of life that I am accustomed to.

At this moment, lying on the sick bed and recalling my whole life, I realize that all the recognition and wealth that I took so much pride in, have paled and become meaningless in the face of impending death.

In the darkness, I look at the green lights from the life supporting machines and hear the humming mechanical sounds, I can feel the breath of god of death drawing closer…

Now I know, when we have accumulated sufficient wealth to last our lifetime, we should pursue other matters that are unrelated to wealth…
Should be something that is more important:

Perhaps relationships, perhaps art, perhaps a dream from younger days ...
Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me.

God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth.

The wealth I have won in my life I cannot bring with me.
What I can bring is only the memories precipitated by love.
That’s the true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on.

Love can travel a thousand miles. Life has no limit. Go where you want to go. Reach the height you want to reach. It is all in your heart and in your hands.
What is the most expensive bed in the world? - "Sick bed" …

You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear the sickness for you.
Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – "Life".

When a person goes into the operating room, he will realize that there is one book that he has yet to finish reading – "Book of Healthy Life".

Whichever stage in life we are at right now, with time, we will face the day when the curtain comes down.

Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends...

Treat yourself well. Cherish others.

Microsoft Office for Tablet now on Google Play store

Back in November, Microsoft opened up early previews builds for its new mobile Office applications for Android tablets to those willing to sign up and wait for an invitation. After taking on feedback over the past couple of months, Microsoft has announced that it is expanding its preview scheme by releasing its Office applications to everyone directly through the Google Play Store. The new Office software for mobile unifies Android, IOS, and Windows platforms. Previously each platform had to make do with its own apps, meaning that feature sets differed depending on your operating system and updates were often slow and intermittent. By unifying the Office platform, Microsoft hopes to bring updates and new features to users in a timelier manner. There are still a couple of conditions attached to the preview builds though. Firstly, Office is still limited to ARM-based Android tablets with a screen size between 7 and 10.1 inches. Your tablet will also need to be running Ki...

Turn your Word doc into a PDF with a live table of contents

A long report needs to be broken up into sections. Readers will want shortcuts to the chapters that most interest them. So, if you’re distributing your reports as PDFs, you’ll want live tables of contents in which readers can easily go to the chapters they want to read. Fortunately, this is easy to do in Word 2010 or 2013 (I haven’t tested this in earlier versions). First of all, you need to set up your document properly. Use Word’s outline styles— Heading 1, Heading 2 , and so on—to organize your report. For instance, you might want to assign large section titles as Heading 1, chapter titles as Heading 2, sub-chapters as Heading 3, and so on. By the way, using these headings has other advantages. You can select View>Outline and work on your document as a collapsible outline. Also, the left tab of the Navigation pane uses these styles. But back to the table of contents. When you’re ready to distribute your document, select the References tab and click...
