Randy Carnegie Mellon Professor Randy Pausch, famous for his inspirational “Last Lecture” speech and book, has passed away.  He was 47.

In his moving talk nearly a year ago, “Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams,” Pausch talked about his lessons learned and gave advice to students on how to achieve their own career and personal goals.  His major point were:

  • Always have fun
  • Dream big
  • Ask for what you want
  • Dare to take a risk
  • Look for the best in everybody
  • Make time for what matters
  • Let kids be themselves

Everyone should watch or listen to Randy’s lecture. It is truly inspirational.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and children, whom he dedicated his moving speech to.
