It was truly inspiring to hear his life lessons and how he still conducts himself even when he only has a few months left to live. The video is embedded with so many gems that the only way to truly explain it would just be to watch it. The two things I took away from it most was the story he gave about when his coach was riding him extra hard during a practice. One of the coaches said that &#8220;When you&#8217;re screwing up and nobody saying anything to you anymore, that means they gave up&#8221;. He also talked about brick walls are there to see how much you want something. It&#8217;s also used to separate you and everybody else; from the ones who are willing to do whatever it takes and the people who will give up easily. I&#8217;m very glad that I was referred to this video and that I took the time to watch it. I actually planned it into my calendar and the lessons are something I will keep in mind when I go on in my life. Thank you very much Randy.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a link to the video.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ji5_MqicxSo\">http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ji5_MqicxSo<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just got done watching Randy Paushc&#8217;s last lecture on Youtube and it has to be one of the best videos I&#8217;ve watched on Youtube with Lily&#8217;s Disneyland Surprise and Ronaldinho&#8217;s <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"http:\/\/khang-nguyen.com\/?p=132\">Continue Reading &rarr;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[3],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/khang-nguyen.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/khang-nguyen.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/khang-nguyen.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/khang-nguyen.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/khang-nguyen.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=132"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/khang-nguyen.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":134,"href":"http:\/\/khang-nguyen.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132\/revisions\/134"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/khang-nguyen.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=132"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/khang-nguyen.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=132"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/khang-nguyen.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=132"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
