First off is his” idgaf” attitude towards everything. The greatest example I think of from Jobs’ biography is when he leaves Reed College, moves back home to Palo Alto and goes to get a job. Looking like a hippie, smelling terrible yet so determined that he was best for the job. His soon to be employer, Al Alcorn, was so intrigued he had no choice but to hire Jobs. “The squeaky wheel gets oil first” mentality that Jobs personifies himself as, along with his faith in the self, cocky, yet great in the business world is awesome. Best of all, Jobs knew that.
Secondly Jobs was always convinced he knew what people needed in terms of a product they sought to have. This in my opinion is the art of innovation and entrepreneurship. The determination and persistence to take any bump in the road, any opportunity given, any idea or path crossed and make it better tenfold, is truly the greatest feat of any entrepreneur in my mind, once again reiterating that Jobs even fought off death at one point.
Concluding with the way in which Jobs attracts our attention. Speaking in public Jobs has a charisma and demeanor about him, which draws your attention no matter how you personally feel about the man. He presents products, ideas, and himself in such a powerful way it is hard to resist giving into his pitch. His gleaming confidence and persuasive abilities are some of his most admirable traits.
