Jobs was the ultimate visionary and will go down in history as not only the creator of the MAC products that we know today, but for starting a movement. Mark Zuckerberg was the founder of social networking, but Jobs gave us the tools to do so – to help us connect and change the way we communicate forever.

Jobs was always apart of the conversation/case studies in college when the topic of succeeding in business was covered. But more than that, Jobs did not just succeed in “business,” he exceeding in passion – passion for what he did other than just "making money" which is rare, especially in the business world.

Jobs was once quoted, "We're here to put a dent in the universe."

Thank you Steve Jobs for putting that dent into the universe.
