Honest Rules for Life from Matthew McConaughey

Notes:

You cannot own the truth so here are the rules for life:

Rules for life

1. Life is not easy

Don’t get into the trap that you are a victim.

2. Unbelievable is the stupidest word in the dictionary

Give yourself and others more credit. People are people. Acknowledge the acts of greatness and do not be naive about man kinds capacity for evil.

4. Define success for yourself

What is success for yourself? It may be money. I have nothing against that. But it may be to help others or to have family. Whatever you choose, don’t do anything that will jeopardize your soul. Spend time on who you want to be and don’t do anything that antagonizes your character. It is cool to get on the hill but first answer that question – what is my hill? Define what is important to you and measure it every day.

5. Process of elimination is the first step to our identity

Where you are NOT is as important as where you ARE.

6. Don’t leave crumbs

Crumbs come in form of regret. Sleep with someone who you should not have. Drink to much to get up in the morning. Let’s not leave the crumbs but instead of that let’s create more things that pay us up in the future.

7. Dissect your successes

We so often focuses on our failures and study it. The easiest way to dissect success is through gratitude. Appreciate the simple things that we sometimes take for granted. That does not mean to be in denial of your failures. You can dissect them to – but do it constructively. Sometimes we try our best but we don’t always do our best. Built your good habits.

8. Make voluntary obligations

Those obligation that you do with yourself. You vs. you obligations.

9. From can’t to want

It is not a good reason to do things just because you can. Do things because you want it.

10. A roof is a man made thing

We should not make any restrictions on our self.

11. Turn the page

We all do mistakes. Turn that page, you are the author of your life.

12. Give your obstacles credit

Fear is a good thing because it increases the need to overcome that fear. Say your fears out loud. Declare them. Be brave.

13. How do we know when we crossed the truth

All I want is what I see and all I see is what is in front of me. Put yourself into position to receive the truth.
