In one of Chuck's classes at the Rally, he recommended several books. It took awhile, but I just finished the first of them - "The Last Lecture" by Randy Pausch. It was a fantastic book, full of wisdom and inspiration,

For those who don't know about this book or who Randy Pausch was, he was a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon University who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and given 6 months to live. He decided to give one last lecture (and write the book) as a legacy to his 3 young children. The live lecture is available on youtube and is quite amazing. The book covers the same ground with more detail. Both are truly worth experiencing.

So I'd just like to say thank you to Chuck for including this gem on his list. I'm looking forward to discovering the others!
