The lesson Jobs learned from his Buddhist days was that material possessions often cluttered life rather than enriched it.
In the book "Steve Jobs" by Walter Isaacson, it is highlighted that Jobs gained significant insights from his experience with Buddhism. He recognized that an accumulation of material possessions could actually complicate one's life rather than enhance it. This perspective influenced his approach to both his personal life and his work at Apple.
Jobs emphasized simplicity and minimalism, believing that true enrichment comes from experiences and meaningful connections rather than from owning things. This lesson served as a guiding principle for his innovative thinking and product design, where he consistently aimed to strip away excess to create elegant solutions.
