Cook, the son of a shipyard worker, was raised in Robertsdale, Alabama, 库克是一个造船厂工人的儿子，在亚拉巴马州的罗伯茨代尔长大，

and for the next twelve years worked for IBM in the Research Triangle of North Carolina. 在接下来的12年里，他在北卡罗来纳州的三角研究园为IBM工作。
When Jobs interviewed him, he had recently taken a job at Compaq. 乔布斯面试他的时候，库克刚刚得到康柏公司的工作。
He had always been a very logical engineer, 他一直是位逻辑严谨的工程师，
and Compaq then seemed a more sensible career option, but he was snared 3 by Jobs's aura. 康柏公司的职位似乎是一个更加理性的选择，但是他被乔布斯放出的光芒吸引了。
"Five minutes into my initial interview with Steve, I wanted to throw caution and logic 2 to the wind and join Apple," he later said. “在我第一次面试中，5分钟之内我就决定把谨慎和逻辑都拋在脑后，我要加入苹果。”他后来说，
"My intuition told me that joining Apple would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to work for a creative genius." “我的直觉告诉我，加入苹果、为一个创意天才工作,这是我这一生唯一的机会。”
And so he did. "Engineers are taught to make a decision analytically 4, 于是他辞职加入了苹果。“工程师应该是通过理性的分析去作出决定，
but there are times when relying on gut 5 or intuition is most indispensable." 但是难免会出现依赖内心直觉的时刻。”
