"I wake up almost every morning, four or five days a week, and i do that old stephen covey exercise where i read my obituary," he says. "And then the language i use is to put a little something on the plot." He writes: "Our eulogy, our story, will be told by others, and ever introduce us when we are gone"
Fate is a terrible writer -- and it shouldn’t be the one in the driver’s seat of your life. But there has to be a balance between fate and control, right? Matthew McConaughey’s take on this topic is an inspiring one, and in this week’s interview, he talks about how fate works together with self-determination to help you create the life you really want. He argues that ego is actually a healthy thing and that there is a beautiful balance between freedom and responsibility (in his terms, “giddy-up and innate ability.”) This epic conversation with Don and Matthew will inspire you to learn from your setbacks, take back control of your life, and develop the kind of optimism that will help you succeed.
