We never know when the death will come to us, and when it come no one can escape it. And that is as it should be, because death is very likely the single best invention of life. Just like Steve Job said: our time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s oppinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary. After you watch the final part. Answer the questions: 1. What question does he ask himself every morning?

4. What was the Google of the 60s like? What was it's name? Answer: It was sort of like google in paperback form and all made with typewriters, scissors, and polaroid camera. It was idealistic, and over flowing with neat tools and great notions. It’s called The Whole Earth Catalog. 5. “Stay hungry. Stay foolish” - where do these words come from?

Good morning, Today, I would like to talk and with you all on a very important topic that is health is wealth. If you sit much of the time, for most of the days and months, you are like a fish that does not swim and a bird that does not fly. If this goes on, naturally the lazy fish and bird will not live healthy live, and neither will all of us. Long time ago, our great, great grandparents kept strong and fit in their livelihood by hunting and farming, which included ploughing, planting, harvesting, and running after the same fishes and birds. Today, most people suffer from all different kind of diseases like high blood pressure, gout, heart attack and stress-related disease which cost the world billions of dollars. The world should now stop eating and sleeping like a pig, and take on some exercises. Ladies and gentle man, Our topic today is about health is wealth. In fact, health is, at any moment in time, more important than wealth. We will appreciate health more if financial is the only thing we have left. When we talk about health is wealth. It is part of happiness, and with it, we can live longer, acquire more wealth, and contribute to society. In sickness, everything goes haywire. Those who overlook health in their quest for wealth usually end up losing both. For a sports champion, health is their number one priority in their life. Even for a TV star, an air pilot, a doctor, a school teacher, or anybody at all, health is second to none. As we gradually moving on with the good habits of exercise, taking good healthy food and rest, we will experience changes in ourselves. Our outlook will be positive, our mind will be alert, our eyes will sparkle with enthusiasm and intelligence, and we will live a most meaningful life. The truth is good health does not take care of it self, and if we think it will, we may well lose it. We should exercise everyday and doing some activities that are more useful, than sleeping and doing that are not so important. So keep health yourself then you will more easily seek riches in this world. Thak you so much for your attention, I hope my speech can be beneficial for us.
