TO ACT OR NOT TO ACT

Hamlet and Steve Jobs both have different views about the value of life. In Steve's speech it is basically saying that we should listen to our hearts and intuitions because they know what we want to do. It also says that we shouldn't waste time living someone else's life. We should live our own life and to the fullest. Hamlet on the other hand values life as a struggle with oneself. He says in the soliloquy "Thus Conscience does make Cowards of us all" its basically saying that the more of you think about a decision the less likely you will do it. The soliloquy relates the reader because Hamlet is facing problems that everybody faces like how he, only one person, can make a difference. It's those little things that make this something to remember.
