That seems like it always. You never hear about someone until something bad happens to them. I liked his lecture was a great one and i wish he could have continued to do more before all this happened to him. fund´s last blog post..Oil etf.

[...] Yesterday I bought Randy’s Pausch’s p-book The Last Lecture and Darren Rowse’s p-book ProBlogger: Secrets for Blogging Your Way to a Six-Figure Income. Do they need the money? No, not really. Darren supposedly makes over $20,000 a month just from his two blogs, plus he has his book proceeds and his income as VP of Blogger Training for b5media. Randy’s a smart guy and I’m sure he has enough life insurance, plus Hyperion paid $6.7 million for the right to publish his book (I don’t know what Randy’s cut was). They don’t need the money, but I like supporting them because of the work they’ve done. Besides, my blog is mentioned in The Last Lecture, page 184! [...]

@ Pearl, if you stumbled across it again, maybe it’s fate! I saw that a lot of people have posted the video, and it’s been viewed something like 6 million times now. I think it’s a good one to watch every now and then, because we do continue to forget.

Wow, congrats Hunter.. I recently found your site and again today stumbled across this post.. I posted Randy’s video on my site too when I first found out and I have learned so much positivity from that one message! True, it doesn’t have to be until something bad happens… great reminder although we continue to forget it!

@ Robert,

“No one can teach us everything, but anyone can teach us something.”

That’s a nice way to put it!

Hi Hunter, I like what you’re saying!
There are many Randy Pausch around us, and we can learn from them. They may not be famous yet, but you can start looking around and get things to learn from them.
No one can teach us everything, but anyone can teach us something.
Interesting post!

@ Marelisa, OK, I guess something “plus” will do it. It has to be a big plus though, or a big minus.

@ Vered, you get a lot of comments and you comment everywhere too, so I’m sure you have all kinds of stuff going through your head.

@ Chad, thanks, glad to have you here with your interesting comments.

@ Matt, glad to have another Randy fan here. I think unlike Jedi vs. Sith, in the Tigger vs. Eeyore debate there’s clearly one right answer!

@ Barbara, yup, we’re too busy, or at least we think we are. Your comments reminded me of Daniel’s post that he alluded to in his comment. Since the CommentLuv didn’t work, the link as Complete Lives With Beautiful Words.

@ Daniel, that’s right. I included the video in My Final Post: Top 9 Lessons In Awesomeness.

@ Hayden, I think that both watching and reading The Last Lecture would be a good idea. I’ve read Steve Jobs’ Stanford commencement speech, but I didn’t know it was on YouTube. I’ll have to check it out.

@ Shilpan, thanks for your congratulations!

@ Janice, that’s a good idea your mentor had, that anything you learn or do you have to pass on. Sort of like the “pay it forward” concept.

@ JL, wow, another Randy fan! Leaving comments takes a little getting used to, but it quickly becomes natural. Your testimonial makes the book sound really good!

@ Daniel, I read your article and stumbled it. The CommentLuv didn’t work, but I included the link in my response to Barbara.

Reading the book is how I found your website also. I’m not so great on leaving comments yet, still getting accostomed to the idea. I found the book great, inspirational and a superb read. I almost cried several times, not cuz he was dying but because of the way he grabbed at life and really lived.
