Carnegie Mellon Professor Randy Pausch lost his life to pancreatic cancer on July 25, 2008. This was his last lecture at the university about how he achieved his childhood dreams. Randy is not only a smart guy and a great teacher, I admire him because he lived his life knowing how to prioritise what was really important and what was not. If you also want to know how he does this, watch his lecture on Time Management.
