    Robert Downey Jr. is one of the few actors that doesn’t have to change much to be in movies. He simply amplifies his original personality.

    • @leofeza9325
      @leofeza9325 4 ปีที่แล้ว +51

      Well what you wont hear often is your vision is a map however your emotions/feelings are the vehicle and the destination. Thoughts are electric and emotions are magnetic in nature. Feeling is the medium through which new information is encoded in the subconscious mind. Subconscious mind is about 95% of your reality. Emotions electromagnetic field is 1000 times stronger than that of thought. Vision is just a map. A blueprint. Very necessary but doesn't get you there. Source- Metaphysics +Quantum mechanics

    Never encourages "taking a break". Bro, these are true words. Family and friends would just look at you as if you're failing in life, because you're not running and chasing. I decided to give myself a break for contemplation/introspection and it's rewarded me more than any amount of money I could ever have. Knowledge of Self is the ultimate key.

    This interview is one of the reasons I am glad he didn't give up on himself when a lot of people expected him to. I am sure he agrees that he still has work to do, on himself now he's got both direction and focus. The redemptive quality of the person he is becoming, the transformation--I can wait to see what he will do next. I like this little peek into that process.

    When I was in rehab, I constantly felt overwhelming humiliation and shame, for the first couple of weeks. Honestly, the turning point, for me, was remembering RDJ. And when I did, I thought: "I can still be Ironman." (Not that I thought I could become a superhero, or be cast as one in a movie, or anything like that.) The humiliation and shame didn't go away, but I started having a general hope that anything was possible. A hope that I wasn't locked in to being what I was. I wish I could directly thank RDJ for giving me that much hope.
