It seems like Steve Jobs, the man who revolutionized the personal computing world was as lost as most of us would have been when we were younger. His job application from 1973 when he was just 18 is now up for auction and many people are calling him a lazy and indifferent teenager based on his resume!

But isn't it comforting that we can find ourselves on the same page as Steve once was? It definitely is. It gives one hope that anything is possible if one follows his or her heart. Are you following yours? Are you looking or doing the job you love?  Maybe that is the question that will change your life.

Jobs enrolled at Reed College for the fall semester in 1972 but soon dropped out to preserve his parents' meager funds. However, he hung around campus for a year and a half to audit creative courses, including classes on dance, Shakespeare, and calligraphy – the skills which would later influence the innovation of the Macintosh computer. Jobs one recalled, 'If I had never dropped in on that single calligraphy course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts.”

Steve Wozniak, the co-founder of Apple remember their early days something like this, “I had every Bob Dylan album up to that day… words and interviews. I showed him the lyrics to the songs — amazing poetry and fantasy, sometimes just words to express feelings. And so, we became Dylan fans. We went to a lot of concerts together, we drove around, we played pranks together, we experimented with technology and devices that I built. The two of us played a couple of amazing pranks and some that did not quite come off. Once we went late at night to try and break into the janitor's shed so we could attach some wires and pull them so the sprinklers could be turned on the parents during the graduation ceremony. But we didn't quite get into the right part of the building.”

Wozniak says, “The days I miss the most are the days before Apple started, five years before Apple started.”

The CV that is pictured above may seem messy but isn't that most of us at the end of the day? At the very least, he knew his interest and special abilities back then, which were electronic tech or design engineer. And, as far as his legacy is concerned, we essentially live in a world that he had a big hand in creating.  

His CV is going to be auctioned in March and is expected to sell for at least 3 lakh.
