You do what you think is expected of you or what you are supposed to do and things go poorly or chaos ensues as it surely will

Here's the other problem I don't feel like I can stand here and tell you to try to have an impact

科斯托洛曾主修计算机专业，但毕业时由于兴趣爱好，放弃了科技企业的录用通知，从事喜剧表演。最后却又歪打正着，回到计算机领域，并成为IT业最成功企业之一的CEO。他通过自己的亲身经历告诉毕业生们，人生最重要的并不是总体规划，而是追随自己的兴趣所在，不要刻意去想着如何影响世界，因为做好自己爱做的事，影响自然会产生。
