That's right, because your ideas matter. Your courage matters. And the way you choose about to think about the world can change everything, friends. Daniel, have you ever had an idea that felt like different from everyone else's? Yeah, of course! Sometimes when I share an idea, people look at me like, Wait, what?! Exactly, but guess what? Some of the biggest advances in the world started with kids who fought differently. And today's story is about one of those kids, a kid who asked so many questions. That teacher sometimes didn't know what to do with him. A kid who loves taking things about just to see how they looked. Some people thought he was difficult, others thought he was different, but later, guess what? The whole world would realize something big. That his curiosity was actually his superpower. He was a kid who would grow up to change the way the whole world uses technology. Oh, Big Redo, does that mean it's story time? Please say yes, please say yes! Yes, Destiny! And friends, go grab a snack or some paper and crayons. Get comfortable, it's story time! Alright, Destiny, it's time to do this. Start up the time machine, Destiny. It's time to rewind the clock. Alright, friends, hold on tight. Get ready to go back in time. Ready, set, go! Oh wow, it's beautiful here. It sure is. Our story begins in sunny California in 1955. On February 24th, a baby boy named Steve Jobs was born. And something important happened right at the beginning of his story. He was adopted by a loving family, Paul and Clara Jobs. Together they promised to raise him and help him learn, explore and grow. Steve's dad, Paul, was a mechanic and a craftsman who loved fixing things. And when Steve was little, his dad brought him into his garage and showed him how machines worked. Paul taught Steve something important. How to build things carefully and beautifully. Even the parts that people couldn't see. Steve loved it. He loved taking things apart just to understand them. Radios, electronics, anything with wires and buttons. He wanted to see how things worked. He was curious about everything. But here's something interesting. Steve wasn't always the best student in school. Sometimes he got bored. Not because he wasn't smart, but because his brain was full of questions and big ideas. Listen closely friends. The one thing he never stopped doing was asking questions. Like why? And how does this work? And what if we tried something different? I love those questions. Me too. When Steve was a teenager, he met another young inventor. His name was Steve Wozniak. The two friends loved building electronics together. One day they had a bold idea. What if people could have a computer in their home? Back then computers were huge. They filled entire rooms and were used by big companies and universities. But Steve believed something different. He believed computers could be simple, beautiful, easy to use. Something everyday families could enjoy. He had a dream and was determined to bring his vision to reality. So the two friends started building computers. Not in an office, not in a fancy lab. But in Steve Jobs' parents' garage. In 1976. Yes friends. A simple garage. Wow, that's amazing. It was. And they called their company Apple Computer. The first computer was called the Apple One. Soon after, they created the Apple Two. One of the first successful personal computers in the world. And that helped start the personal computer of revolution. Years later, Apple created products people around the world would use everyday. The Macintosh computer in 1984 that used a mouse and graphical screen. Later came devices many families know today. The iPod that changed the way people listened to music. The iPhone which combined the phone. Music player and internet device all in one. The iPad. A new kind of tablet computer. And here's something many people don't know. Steve Jobs was actually forced out of Apple in 1985. The company that he helped start. Oh my imagine that. The company he started asked him to leave if I was him. But I'd be very sad. That must have been incredibly hard. It was. But guess what? Steve didn't quit. He kept creating. While Steve was away from Apple, he started a company called Next. Next built a powerful computer for universities and scientists. And something really interesting about that computer was how beautiful it looked. Steve believed that technology shouldn't just work well. It should also be beautifully and thoughtfully designed. The next computer had a sleek black cube design that many people thought looked futuristic. And even though the computer wasn't sold to millions of people, the technology inside it became incredibly important. In fact, the first website ever created on the internet was built using the next computer. And friends, here's something really amazing. Steve Jobs helped a small animation company grow. That company became Pixar Animation Studios. Oh wow, I know that. Pixar went on to create some of the most loved animated movies in the world. Including Toy Story in 1995. Ever heard of that movie? We so have. And Toy Story was the first full length movie ever made completely with computer animation. Okay, so the same man who helped bring us beautiful technology also helped bring us some of the most memorable animated stories ever made. Yes, which is pretty incredible if you think about it. Steve Jobs believed technology and creativity should work together. And that idea helped inspire some of the movies kids and families still love today. And years later, Apple invited Steve Jobs back. What? Seriously? Yes, that's right. And when he returned, he helped lead Apple into one of the most innovative periods in technology history. Steve Jobs once shared a powerful message in Apple's famous Think Different campaign. Can you say it with fast Daniel? I'd love to. He said, Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes, the ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules and they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can do is ignore them because they change things, because they push the human race forward. While some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they could change the world are the ones who do. Quote by Steve Jobs. What? He said that? That's amazing. He did. He sure did. Wow, that's a powerful quote, Daniel. Gussney, I bet the world realized they could do great things too. Daniel, that was a great story. We actually have a few things in our home that were from Apple today. That's right, little sister. I bet many people listening have a few Apple things too. And here's the big lesson for you listening today. When Steve Jobs said those words in his quote, he was reminding the world of something important. Sometimes the people who see things differently are the ones who move the world forward. They're the ones who change everything. Now listen carefully, friends. There's another very important part of Steve Jobs' story that many people don't talk about. Near the end of his life, Steve shared something very personal with his biographer, Walter Isaacson. He said that being a husband and a father was 10,000 times better than anything I've ever done. Wow, that says a lot. It sure does because Steve Jobs helped build one of the most famous technology companies and products in the world. But even with all that success, he realized something very important. That the people you love, your family, the time you spend together, those things matter more than any invention. So what does that teach us, friends? I'll go. Big ideas are wonderful. Building things is amazing. Inventing, creating, dreaming big, those are incredible gifts. But the greatest leisies we build is the way we love and care for the people around us. Before we move on to the legacy lightning question, let's see what we learn from Steve Jobs' story. First, being curious is powerful. Kids who ask questions often discover amazing things. Second, thinking differently can be a gift. The ideas that seem unusual today can become the inventions that change the world tomorrow. And third, even when people achieve success, the most meaningful part of life is still family and love. Because building great things is exciting. But the greatest legacy we build is the way we love and care for the people around us. Building a great life and strong relationships is the greatest success of all. Alright everyone, do you know what time it is? It's time for the legacy lightning fun facts round. Da na na na, don't do na na na na na na na na na na na na na na. Alright friends, when you get the answer, make sure you shout it out loud. Here's your question, what fruit was used as the name of Steve Jobs' company? A. A banana. B. Apple. C. Forage.
