The late Steve Jobs is one of the greatest minds of his generation, and as expected, he saw life in a different way than you I, but believes anyone can make a difference with the right mindset.

More than a decade ago we lost the former Apple CEO and co-founder due to complications with a rare form of pancreatic cancer, but in his 56 years on our planet, he helped pave humanity toward a digital world.

His company created the first personal computer that was commercially successful, known as the Apple I, and they developed on that success with more groundbreaking innovations.

Then, in June 2007, Apple changed the cell phone game by popularizing the touchscreen interface, and encouraging different ways in which users could socialize - paving the way to the smartphone revolution.

But even before then, his innovative attitude stood out.

In a 1994 interview that has recently re-emerged online, the Californian was asked by John McLaughlin, president of the Santa Clara Valley Historical Association, if he had any advice for young entrepreneurs.

"The thing I would say is: when you grow up you tend to get told that the world is the way it is and your life is just to live your life inside the world - try not to bash into the walls too much," Jobs replied.

"Try to have a nice family life, have fun, save a little money, but life - that's a very limited life - life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact, and that is everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you.

"And you can change it, you can influence it, you can you can build your own things that other people can use, and the minute that you understand that you can poke life and actually something will - you know, if you push in, something will pop out the other side."

He continued: "That you can, you can change, you can mold it. That's maybe the most important thing - is to shake off this erroneous notion that life is is there and you're just gonna live in it, versus embrace it, change it, improve it, make your mark upon it.

"I think that's very important, and however you learn that, once you learn it you'll want to change life and make it better because it's kind of messed up in a lot of ways.

"Once you learn that you'll never be the same again."

To quote the great Mahatma Gandhi, 'be the change you want to see in the world' - a saying that clearly rang true in the ears of the great Steve Jobs.
