Dying 47-Year-Old Professor Gives Last Lecture
As I’m going through some videos to prepare for my upcoming Web 2.0 video copywriting workshop in Los Angeles, I stumbled upon this amazing video.
If you ever wanted to attend a “lecture of a lifetime,” this would be it. With only 4-5 months left to live, this university professor gave his last lecture. It’s probably the best one I’ve ever seen. Ever.
If you want some important lessons about reaching goals, achieving dreams, the power of enthusiasm, and lessons that will literally transform you, then watch it. Watch it from beginning to end…
… And then try to keep your eyes dry.
I dare you.
Dying 47-Year-Old Professor Gives Exuberant “Last Lecture”
Here he is on Good Morning America.
There’s a 30-second commercial at the beginning, but watch it. It’s one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen.
