George Washington VS. Steve Jobs

I have been reading two books at the moment:  1: "Steve Jobs"  By Walter Isaacson and "His Excellency" by  Joseph J. Ellis.

While reading these two books I have come upon the idea that Steve Jobs and George Washington I think were pretty a like in some aspects.

Both were definitely pretty widely regarded after their deaths and are still pretty renown.

There will definitely be period differences because of the times they both lived in but both I think sort of embraced the idea of rebel.

I think Steve Jobs embraced it more because of the time period he lived allow him to but both him and George Washington led rebellions even though we all know who's was more important and successful.

I think a big similarity between the two was that they embraced the idea "Think Different".  In both of their lives they allowed themselves to be different from the normal every day people and do different things.

In other words they were out of the box thinkers.  Jobs was constantly berating his fellow employees because I think he felt there was a mindset ingrained in them that they needed to be in the box.  So he forced them to think outside of the box and yelled at them when they didn't.  Washington didn't just think America was going to be an east coast place.  He often thought about the west.
