STEVE JOBS AND THE NUMBER TEN



Birth
Steve Jobs was born on February 24, 1955. Those numbers add up to 10, which adds up to 1. (2+6+2=10=1). He was born on the 10/1 Destiny Path – the path of the pioneer.
Death
He died on October 5, 2011 which was also a 10/1 day in the world. (1+5+4=10=1).
Apple
It is also most interesting that Apple was established on April 1, 1976, another date which adds up to 10. (4+1+5=10=1), and was incorporated on January 3, 1977 which adds up to 10 as well. (1+3+6=10=1).

Steve Jobs’ life, and his death, remind us that we are all potential pioneers in this decade of the 10s, which cries out for innovation as a matter of survival.
Even the word ‘jobs’ carries the most enormous symbolism when, at the time of his death, jobs are what so many people all over the world are so badly in need of; a day on which protests against the outsourcing of jobs by corporations (including Apple) were making innovative inroads of their own. Mixed emotions are involved here. And guess what? The name JOBS adds up to 10.
There is also the fact that 1 and 0 represent the binary code itself, of which he was a master, and without which our computers, phones and other gadgets simply would not exist.

The life of Steve Jobs produced an unstoppable wave of INNOVATION and HIGH QUALITY, both symbolized by the number 10. He produced a creative surge that changed our experience of computing, music, film, design, communication and our ability to discover new things. He was often referred to as the Thomas Edison of the 21st century. He certainly brought things to the next level.
When we add 1 and 0 we get the number 1 – the nucleus of all the other numbers. “We Are One”, we keep telling ourselves and yet here we are struggling to understand the meaning of that most fundamental number. 1 is the number of the individual; the number of self awareness; self acceptance. 1 is the number of independence, progression and moving forward. We are evolving beyond mere selfishness and searching for ways to BE our authentic selves. 1 is the number of leadership, and if there was ever a leader who understood that leading one’s own life is the basis of personal evolution, it was Steve Jobs. “Your time is limited”, he said, “so don’t waste it living someone else’s life.”
He also said: ‎
"No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new."
It seems almost inevitable that he would leave this Earth in the 10th month of this 4 global year. (2+0+1+1=4). In doing so,  he leaves behind the most inspirational observation that comes from the combination of 10 and 4. You see, 4 is the number of work – andhow things work. he said:
He was here on Earth for a very special reason, and impacted our lives in astonishing ways. Regardless of the controversies surrounding the Apple Corporation (which must be addressed in the months to come), Steve Jobs must be given a high score indeed for his contribution… 10 out of 10.
In his words ..
“Remembering that you are going to die is the
best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you
have something to lose. You are already naked.
There is no reason not to follow your heart.”
