Jeff Bezos: What Life Story Will You Write?

A quick bit of inspiration from the man who has changed the way we buy books, and now the way we’re reading them – Jeff Bezos (CEO, Amazon). Speaking at Princeton’s graduation last May, Bezos discussed the life choices that we all face: Will you follow dogma? Or be original? Will you play it safe? Or take good risks? Will you be a cynic? Or a builder? Will you be clever at the expense of others? Or will you be kind?

In short, your life story comes down to your choices. What story will you write? And how will it read when you’re 80?
