Bunch of bullshit.
The real lesson we can learn from Jobs (and Barack Obama) among others is that having a horrible childhood warps something inside of you and if you live long enough you'll be able to apply a psychotic level of focus to what you do.

Whats with all this feel good motivational shit. Do people really want to live their lives thinking that 99% of things are about their emotions and the other 1% is about sticking a feather up their ass and wishing something was so?
If so, then fuck them and fuck you too.
