I'm one week and one day alcohol and smoke-free after 37 years of addiction, went to AA for the first time the day before yesterday, and I feel the most incredible FREEDOM right now, having finally removed THAT which was not me from my life. It's just the beginning, it feels very easy right now but will be challenging later I have no doubt, but what he says about discovering who I truly am thru the process of elimination sounds like a universal truth that I am incredibly grateful to have heard at this critical point in my life. I am excited to remove more Not Me from my life and see who I truly am under it all!! Thank you to MC and to the person who posted it and to the loving energy who made sure I saw this message.
Thank you, sincerely appreciate the encouragement! Going to relisten every morning for awhile, wish you much success in your journey too!@@PaulandAnnDixon
@@juneoconnor9501Thank you SO much June!! Your very kind words brightened my day already, sending you much love too, glad I checked back here to see this wonderful support! 😍🙏💗
Matthew, wish I had a life with you! Not for your looks, don't care about your money. Care about the way you think and your spirit! May you always be blessed!
or maybe it is only your idea of the life you may have. You can find certain qualities in others, as rare as that may be ... or is it only for the fame? is it only for the fortune? Is it only for the positive vibes?
Good advice ! I'm 73 and I have made my life what I wanted it to be. No regrets, it's been a GREAT life and that's because I took the reins and made it my life. YOU are in charge of your life. Make it YOUR life.
Thank you for this. I’m a teen right now and I’m just so worried about the rest of my life that I’m not taking control of the things that I have now. I needed this ❤
@9637 Thank you and you're welcome ! Good for you.....stay calm, use your head and your heart and make it happen.....whatever it is in your heart that you want to be or do.... do it. You will be glad you did .....Stay strong :)
Iam also in a situation where I can't find what is my 'why' . I will be graduating high-school after 1 year. I just know I want to be a great person who want to make this world a better place. Help others make them smile. I will take one year off before college and try to reflect who and what I should do. Any advices ? My parents are unsupportive and they want me to be something else..
That's what the world's more priviledged people say. Ignorance of luck and how the world actually works is a blissful thing. You can just point at everything you have and say "I did this" while it couldn't be further from the truth.
I am 72. My dad told me three things: first, life isn't fair, second, no one owes you anything, three if you want something, work for it, and don't quit when it gets tough. He was right. 5:19 5:19
@johnlaudenslager706 ... that gave me goosebumps.. because you are absolutely correct. Pretty sad that the best advice I've ever gotten wasn't from parents or school... thanks MATTHEW 😊
It's common for relationships to encounter obstacles, but there is always a solution. My own marriage faced considerable issues, but with appropriate guidance, my husband and I worked through them and deepened our connection. Solutions are achievable if you're ready to work together. Stay hopeful-there's always a way forward.
I'm facing significant relationship problems and can't stand the idea of losing him. My love and longing for my partner are profound, and I'm ready to do anything to restore our connection. I would greatly appreciate any advice or help you could give.
Parting with someone you love is always a challenging process, but in my experience, I had the guidance of a spiritual guide who prevented my marriage from collapsing. His name is Father Akunna.
This was just what I needed to hear. As I am 48 and going back to college. I can get frustrated and want to give up but this video made me feels as if I can do this and believe in myself enough to get through this journey that I have waited so long to get back to. I want to make my kids and family proud that I am able to get back to school and get a degree. Thanks for the pick-me-up, that I needed today!
you're worth more as a person than little Mattie. What the heck nerve he has to give motivation advice. What does he know about it? Here's a motivational story for you: I have a friend who was born to a street-living meth addict. When she found out she was pregnant, she tried to get her boyfriend to get clean with her and help her raise the kid well. He refused. She gathered her wits, and went it alone. Got clean, got housing assistance, got a job, Dressed and fed the kid, all the way through school. He went to college (one of those that got shut down for ripping people off, in his junior year). That didn't stop him. He just went and got a job; and works in software now. She died 3 years ago and the world is a poorer place for it. Imagine her life story, and his. She is inspirational. MM does make-believe for cameras, and his businesses make even more money while he acts, or lounges around on beaches, Aspen, Jackson Hole . . . . He's fine, he's a good actor, but life advice????? No way. If I knew you, I would almost certainly admire you fare more than I admire anyone who does make-believe for cameras. Mattie and the kardashians - not much daylight between them, other than he can act
This speech is the motto of life and should be listened to everyday before we start. Get the negative out of the way, the bad influences, the wrong ways, the wrong people. Be your own priority, be the person you are meant to be. Don't we wish we could give this advice to every child starting school and the challenges it brings with it. Thank you for your words, that have great meaning to us all.
no he isn't. He's a actor. You know this. He's a brilliant actor, and his j-o-b is making people believe things whether true or not.. I love-love-love his films. But he's not genuine, no matter how much you believe he is. He's trying to do good things here, but it's the same as his film-acting
@@JohnPublic-ox7mh Regardless if he is acting this or not, it is the truth that will set your soul free, and THAT kind of compassion, direction, understanding, belief, and gratitude of self is still a much-needed healing. It is THAT that will bring people together again with God. So what if he is acting, the message is clear...don't fall into the trap! I will pray for you. God Bless.
This is so timely for me that it's almost as if Matthew and I had a meeting just before he wrote this. I just turned 71 on Christmas Day. It is only within the last 30 days that I can say with all truth to God that I know who I am. I have become become confident for the first time in most every aspect of my life. However, I am a late-bloomer, and a baby boomer!
please, really. I guarantee you'd be more fun to have a beer with than Mattie M. He's been playing make believe for cameras for more than 20 years. Sure he can act, but he's been a made man for a long time now. He has no idea of the struggle of the working class (you, me, most everyone here heaping praise). I don't want a beer with mattie - I'd rather have a beer/whatever with literally anyone in this comment-section than him. Y'all have life stories to tell - real ones.
Absolutely great speech! I had a 1SG that took me aside one day, when I was a young Infantry soldier. He saw that I was struggling with something (I don't recall what). And he told me something very similar. He said "look you can keep wondering. You can keep questioning yourself. Or you can stop self sabotaging yourself and just do it! Because anything worth a damn, is not easy"! I retired with 21 years in the Army. All in the infantry. Thank you 1SG. You helped me be a better man.
The best thing is that the 1SG told it to you in a few sentences. And that makes him way better than the speech we just heard. You are blessed to have gotten that advice so early in life.
@@ThunderChunks I can't say that it is a better speech than what we heard. I just shared some really good advice that helped me progress in my military career and grow up as a young soldier. And you're definitely correct. I was very lucky to have been given that good advice. But that wasn't the only good advice that I was given throughout my career. And that advice that I handed down to my young soldiers. Thank you for the compliment. I wish you and yours all the best.
Instead of thinking about becoming a millionaire we should be teaching people fiscal responsibility. Live below your means, invest for retirement, have 3-6 month emergency fund, save for your children’s college, pay off your mortgage (unless interest if less than 4%). Only when you have met these requirements then take risks in the stock market.
I think having an investment advisor is the way to go. I've been with one because I lack the expertise for the market. I made over $490K during the recent dip, highlighting that there's more to the market than we average folks know.
*Julianne Iwersen-Niemann* is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
Fiscal responsibility is crucial, but it's also important to seize opportunities for financial growth. While building savings, investing for retirement, and maintaining an emergency fund are essential, the stock market, when approached with caution and risk management, can help build wealth. It's about balancing caution with taking calculated risks to grow financially, with diversification playing a key role
Same here.... but .... this is ideal material for my 12 year old granddaughter just starting out in life. Assuming she can extract the dialogue from the overwhelming music.
00:03 Life is not easy, nor fair. Avoid feeling like a victim. 00:38 Prioritize your values and avoid anything that will jeopardize your soul. 01:19 Define success and work to maintain it. 02:01 Defining ourselves by what we are not leads us to really knowing who we are. 02:39 Avoid negative influences and prioritize meaningful interactions 03:13 Eliminate excess and decrease options to discover what's truly important 03:57 Eliminate who you are not and find yourself where you need to be 04:38 Embrace mistakes, own them, make amends, and move on.
Matthew McConaughey’s approach to crafting one’s identity is inspiring-he reminds us that we’re each the architect of our own journey, building a life that aligns with our values. His wisdom on owning mistakes, focusing on personal definitions of success, and cutting out what doesn’t serve us is the kind of guidance that grounds us in authenticity.
I love how he enlightens us on how success like beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Money and fame are great, but a life of joy starts with these simple ideals.
Thank you, thank you for reminding me of where I am in my life! My brother just dumped his stuff on me and I was feeling the victim. I found my voice many years ago and was strong until this happened! I had to hear this again! God bless! I am going to be ok again! 🙏❤️

Simply brilliant. This far surpasses any speech I have heard or read on paper. He is genuine in his word. Thought provoking that makes you to reach the inner core of your being and soul.
I remember my daughter's Waldorf teacher sharing this insight at a parent/teacher evening. She said that adolescents will start to "Try on" various behaviours and identities and that their maturation develops further as they begin to eliminate what didn't feel right or didn't feel good. It's like they're testing the world and themselves simultaneously, gradually discovering who they are at their core and who they are expanding into, thanks to the clarity that came from navigating what's ready to be dropped away. This is true for adults too of course! It really simplifies soaring towards our full potential sooner than later!
You've hit on a lot of personal trials that I'm still going through. I'm in my 60s and still trying to understand this world 🌎😊 Thank You sooo much! God Bless you 💗
To the person reading this, I want you to know that you are exactly where you need to be. Every challenge, every triumph, is shaping you into the incredible person you are becoming. Keep going, you’ve got this! 💖✨
This is one of the most authentic and original speeches ive heard in a long time, i am making it part of my reality FROM TODAY 30 Nov 2023....thank you
@@JohnPublic-ox7mh call me cynical of the celebrities, but I did wonder how authentic this is... did he write it? Do any celebrity keynote speakers write their own speeches? Sure people want to believe, but those people also don't question it, enthralled by the idea that a celebrity of their liking says a few words they need or want to hear without thinking of the source. I do think however better advice could be received from Mary Schmich's column from 1996 in the Chicago Tribune. She is a writer, and I think it does come off as more authentic from her own printed word, afterward falsely contributed to Kurt Vonnegut. Baz Luhrmann turned it into a spoken word song.
Totally agree, that quote really hits deep! It's all about self-discovery and shedding the layers that aren't truly you. Matthew McConaughey's speeches are always so inspiring! 🙌🔥
This is classic Taoist, Buddhist or Zen insight. Not taking anything away from this guy's speech but Westerners quite often copy and paste spiritual truths that have existed for ages and act as if it's something they've just thought of themselves.
I found Matthew's speech to be incredibly helpful and enlightening. His personal approach to life is straightforward and inclusive. It's refreshing to have an opportunity to get advice that brings you up and doesn't give a lecture.
Mr. McConaughey, You need to run for President. I’m a 60 year old husband and proud father of a wonderful daughter. Your comments are spot on, genuine and sincere, they resonate with truth. You are not corrupted by special interests. The world needs the integrity you have. Let me know if I can assist you in saving our country and the future of our planet. God bless you.
That's one of the best summarizations of sound life lessons I have heard in a long time.... Basically, "make the changes that make us be better"... We just have to do it with God, by Him, and for Him. And enjoy it!
Listen to this every day for 30 days and set your goals. I love the don’t waste time doing, eating, drinking, things that are not moving you to be all that you can be.
@@2000skds I've played WoW for 6 years since it was released. New people, world firsts, emotions. A good time. Sometimes I miss it. Most of the time I don't. I don't miss it because I'm almost 40 years old. I'm making progress as a manager, I've met nice people, I'm burying family members, I'm watching children grow up, I'm hiking in nature, watching animals and being watched by them. When I die, I want to be remembered by people, animals and nature, not by computer games. But as he said, things change over the course of life. You change over the course of your life. What remains and what makes you are your memories and experiences. Don't let it be only computer games and films. You are more.
Wow! Definitely worth far more than the 5 minutes of my life it took to listen. Thank you Matthew! More than very inspiring. Definitely worth liiving by.
Best motivational speech I have ever heard. Why dont we have these type of motivational words in every graduation ceremony (both high school and colleges), giving positive feedback and true and honest outlook of life in general. We all need these.
Great words. I wish I had heard them 60 years ago. If like me, you're approaching your final years, forgive yourself if you haven't yet found yourself. In a way you have. No one stays the same. Set aside all of the noise of your thoughts. You may not have found your best self, but you have worked with what you had, what you still have now. There is no one who has not known compromise, not known failure. There is so little real peace in this life. Let yourself be at peace, first with yourself.
Some regret you can't forgive yourself for and move on. Especially when a simple 30 second conversation would have prevented a death. 38 years later very few days go by I don't feel the pain of my poor decision.
@narratordru7188 - I love the quote: "There is so little real peace in this life. Let yourself be at peace, first with yourself.". I would like to share it and credit you. Would you be willing to share your name?
I had gone through some tough trials and lost myself. I joined a voluntary rescue organization and in time saving others healed me. In offering up I got given a second chance and today 16 years later I'm in the heart of operations. Hope lives but ensure like he says, What you are not. I'm worth it, I'm not a failure, I will not give up, changes to "WE". You are not alone...I say again HOPE LIVES within YOU!

Thank you, Matthew, for an incredible video. I'm sending it to everyone in my life. Past generations needed to hear this and every future generation needs to hear it, take it to heart, then apply it to their lives. I especially loved what you said about protecting the soul. If I may, perhaps you could have also told them that this isn't America any longer. I'm a baby boomer and glad to be one. I grew up in America 🇺🇸 and I miss it

Did you ever consider the possibility that he is reciting a script? Isn't he an actor? Actors are known for their ignorance. And one of their own honestly admitted they are in the pretending business.
@@sorellman he's probably reciting from a script that he wrote. Him being an actor has zero relevance here, but you can keep jumping to conclusions if that's what you wanna do.
@@am_KorD Get back to us when you know for sure he wrote that script. "Probably" does not cut in the real world. I have seen this guy speaking in public, and he is no philosopher. Like the whole Hollywood, he is a phony. As Ray Liotta once said, "Listen, we are in the pretend business." MM reads from a script for a fee, or for publicity. Do not kid yourself. But you liked the title of the video, didn't you?
@@sorellman yeah get back to us when you have video proof of him "talking in public" not like a philosopher, because just telling someone that it happened "doesn't cut it in the real world" right? Who cares if he wrote the script or not? The point is that he gave the speech very well and has obviously motivated TONS of people with it just based on this comment section alone. You just love bringing people down don't you?
@@am_KorD "Who cares if he wrote the script or not?" So, now you admit you don't know if he wrote the script. Then why call him a "great philosopher." You assume I have no "video proof" of MM talking in public. Really? There are no videos of him giving interviews? "Tons of people..." How old are you? What kind of education level you have. We do not evaluate multitudes based on their weight, "TONS." And how do you know that he "obviously TONS of people?" You assume things, which means you zero proof he motivated "tons of people." I certainly do not like bringing people down, but I do not allow others to bring me down to their level. You need someone to worship? Put a cork on worshiping entertainers for no good reasons.

One of the most profound and meaningful speeches I have heard.. While I usually don't usually endorse or adhere to words of wisdom from actors, so called profits, politicians or entertainers, I must say his words are a guide for young and old alike. Seek the truth and let that be your guide. Truth will always lead you to knowledge and understanding.
Losing my job was the best thing that ever happened.. Being married to the best woman for 44 years made me the best I could be. So don’t let people ruin your day like they did mine 3 years ago.. I’m a much happier person now that I’m not in that place anymore with people that don’t respect me…. Take step back rewind and make it work it’s worth it…

Beautiful message x-" Do not spend time with anything that antagonises your character"-This is true and essential for your mental and spiritual well being.
Totally agree with the point. The first step is identification. Be true to yourself and answer the question: Who are you? Are you a person who follows amusements, or a person who follows achievements? After that comes step number 2. If you are the person who prefers easy pleasures, just lead a normal life; you don't need to think about improving or other stuff that will make you totally unhappy. But if you are the person who feels bad without achievements, it will be a long and hard journey, but you don't have any other ways. Just choose the niche and forget about everything around for years. And if you put all of yourself into that, probably you will get your personal happiness.😅
I love this because he boiled down my problems to simple manageable solutions. My favorite part was eliminating the things that don't lead us to who and where we want to be; so simple but also huge.
My biggest fear is to leave the world without achieving anything and this is enough to make me jump on the next challenge because a challenge means you are moving forward out of the usual comfort zone
Well… here’s the shocker… you already HAVE achieved! Many times! The only issue is that you may not know it and that is only due to the fact of how you choose to recognize/measure the way and, or how you achieve in the first place. Give yourself more credit for there are many in this world that you have come across, whether you know it or not, that would give it to you unconditionally. Number one being the Devine/Universe and there are none higher!🤘
It doesn't matter if your a bum and homeless. Don't leave this world without knowing Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior for the forgiveness of your sins.
Are you becoming a better person? Cause yourself is all you control. Set your own standard of success and be reasonable. A life well lived, as in working on yourself, doing what you can, where you can, is not to be dismissed lightly.
@@Arulane We will always deserve hell and then the lake of fire until the day we die. We are all sinners.It was no joke that Jesus Christ had to die on a cross for our sins.
Before the v$rus I didn't really think much of Matthew McConaughey; but ever since I started hearing him speak off-screen and in human terms... I love him. He is one of my heroes. This is such great advice I saved the video so I can tune into his words for a recap now & then. I really needed to hear this today. Thank you Live Advice & Matthew McConaughey. Made my day.
I help youth and teenagers help themselves in career and life-skills coaching. My method is not to provide answers, but to make them think and realize and fill them with the confidence that all the answers, all the energy and motivation and help they'll ever need is within themselves. I am also a father to two teenagers and this 5-minute video so effectively tells what any father, teacher, manager, coach would take 5 hours to say. Thank you for sharing.
Life ISN'T easy......it's true, so we do the best we can with what we know, lessons hard learned and lessons easily learned. That's the reason we are here on earth......to learn. Matthew is an excellent directive teacher, which is his calling.
I will be forever grateful to you, you changed my whole life and I will continue to preach on your behalf for the whole world to hear you saved me from huge financial debt with just a small investment, thank you Ann Fiocca
Wow. I'm a bit perplexed seeing her been mentioned here also Didn't know she has been good to so many people too this is wonderful, i'm in my fifth trade with her and it has been super.
The first step to successful investing is figuring out your goals and risk tolerance either on your own or with the help of a financial professional but is very advisable you make use of a professional.
"I know who I am not." True wisdom is to know yourself well. Great advice and truths from one who has traveled far from celebritydom to an innate knowing of who he is.

Thank you I've been doin this process of elimination n it's sometimes lonely but feels right.Eliminate things people n places n move forward to my authentic self❤
I've always loved this speech Matthew. You really hit on the differences between what we've been doing, and what we have NOT been doing in the pursuit of living a fulfilling life. "The Unexamined Life is Not Worth Living" - Socrates
This is a very good speech, I am just wondering why every good speech needs to be screwed up by a motivational video containing 90% of people working out. Life is not just about that guys. Take what McConaughy says to the heart. Forget about the video. Just listen to it (with the nice music) and go from there. I have seen too many kids watching this kind of videos and spending all of their time in fitness thinking they will make it and achieve any goal they can think of.... just by spending hours and hours in the fitness centre... crazy
A SMART person makes a mistake, learns from it, and never makes that mistake again...but a WISE person finds a smart person and learns from them how to avoid the mistake altogether. Roy H. Williams Success is being asked for help rather than asking for it.
Different things come into or go out of a person's life for different reasons. This happened to come into my life at just the right time to give me the courage I need to dig deeper and become something more than I was before. I hope this helps others to find the strength within themselves when they need it most.
Absolutely loved this! The idea of knowing who we are by recognizing who we're not is powerful. Thank you for such an insightful and uplifting message!

Never regret anything, learn, but don't regret. We always imagine any change in our lives to be positive, it's kinda how our brains work, but that isn't reality. I always tell myself in such cases: "Had I done anything different in my life, I would've been run over by a bus five minutes later." People like to imagine winning the lottery and becoming rich, thinking of all fun they could have, buying a yacht or whatever. They never imagine this yacht getting into a storm and sinking, and they themselves drowning. Or buying a sportscar and then crashing it on the way home and dying a painful death in the wreckage. Even though these outcomes are also possible, but we just don't realize that. Any change to your life might have been positive, yeah, but it also might've ended up being negative, no matter what it is. The butterfly effect is unpredictable.
I have always said - where you are is not as important as how far you have come. I have more respect for someone who came out of poverty and now holds down a steady job with a steady income than I have for Mr. Hot-shot-rich-businessman who took over daddy’s company. But, hey…that’s my philosophy.

I'm one week and one day alcohol and smoke-free after 37 years of addiction, went to AA for the first time the day before yesterday, and I feel the most incredible FREEDOM right now, having finally removed THAT which was not me from my life. It's just the beginning, it feels very easy right now but will be challenging later I have no doubt, but what he says about discovering who I truly am thru the process of elimination sounds like a universal truth that I am incredibly grateful to have heard at this critical point in my life. I am excited to remove more Not Me from my life and see who I truly am under it all!! Thank you to MC and to the person who posted it and to the loving energy who made sure I saw this message.
You WILL succeed, you now know where you are going. Eyes on the prize.
Well done Peggy, that's amazing. I wish you strength and joy in your journey of healing and self-discovery. Much love to you. 🥰
Thank you, sincerely appreciate the encouragement! Going to relisten every morning for awhile, wish you much success in your journey too!@@PaulandAnnDixon
@@juneoconnor9501Thank you SO much June!! Your very kind words brightened my day already, sending you much love too, glad I checked back here to see this wonderful support! 😍🙏💗
keep going! You can do it! :)
Matthew, wish I had a life with you! Not for your looks, don't care about your money. Care about the way you think and your spirit!
May you always be blessed!
or maybe it is only your idea of the life you may have. You can find certain qualities in others, as rare as that may be ... or is it only for the fame? is it only for the fortune? Is it only for the positive vibes?
Good advice ! I'm 73 and I have made my life what I wanted it to be. No regrets, it's been a GREAT life and that's because I took the reins and made it my life. YOU are in charge of your life. Make it YOUR life.
Thank you for this. I’m a teen right now and I’m just so worried about the rest of my life that I’m not taking control of the things that I have now. I needed this ❤
@9637 Thank you and you're welcome ! Good for you.....stay calm, use your head and your heart and make it happen.....whatever it is in your heart that you want to be or do.... do it. You will be glad you did .....Stay strong :)
Iam also in a situation where I can't find what is my 'why' . I will be graduating high-school after 1 year. I just know I want to be a great person who want to make this world a better place. Help others make them smile. I will take one year off before college and try to reflect who and what I should do. Any advices ? My parents are unsupportive and they want me to be something else..
That's what the world's more priviledged people say. Ignorance of luck and how the world actually works is a blissful thing. You can just point at everything you have and say "I did this" while it couldn't be further from the truth.
I am 72. My dad told me three things: first, life isn't fair, second, no one owes you anything, three if you want something, work for it, and don't quit when it gets tough. He was right. 5:19 5:19
I'm 82 and I think this is as good or better advice than I have ever heard
God bless you❤
Oh John, that's only because you've forgotten most of the advice you've ever heard.
@@KenFerrisLike me 🙂
Hey, you are 82. You have already won the battle. Good on you!!!
@johnlaudenslager706 ... that gave me goosebumps.. because you are absolutely correct. Pretty sad that the best advice I've ever gotten wasn't from parents or school... thanks MATTHEW 😊
It's common for relationships to encounter obstacles, but there is always a solution. My own marriage faced considerable issues, but with appropriate guidance, my husband and I worked through them and deepened our connection. Solutions are achievable if you're ready to work together. Stay hopeful-there's always a way forward.
I'm facing significant relationship problems and can't stand the idea of losing him. My love and longing for my partner are profound, and I'm ready to do anything to restore our connection. I would greatly appreciate any advice or help you could give.
Parting with someone you love is always a challenging process, but in my experience, I had the guidance of a spiritual guide who prevented my marriage from collapsing. His name is Father Akunna.
I'II quickly search for him online. Thank you.
I'm optimistic that taking this approach will yield results for me as well; his absence is keenly felt.
I promise you will not regret it.
I just searched for Father Akunna online. impressive thank you so much one again ❤
This was just what I needed to hear. As I am 48 and going back to college. I can get frustrated and want to give up but this video made me feels as if I can do this and believe in myself enough to get through this journey that I have waited so long to get back to. I want to make my kids and family proud that I am able to get back to school and get a degree. Thanks for the pick-me-up, that I needed today!
you can do this!
you're worth more as a person than little Mattie. What the heck nerve he has to give motivation advice. What does he know about it?
Here's a motivational story for you: I have a friend who was born to a street-living meth addict. When she found out she was pregnant, she tried to get her boyfriend to get clean with her and help her raise the kid well. He refused.
She gathered her wits, and went it alone. Got clean, got housing assistance, got a job, Dressed and fed the kid, all the way through school. He went to college (one of those that got shut down for ripping people off, in his junior year). That didn't stop him. He just went and got a job; and works in software now. She died 3 years ago and the world is a poorer place for it.
Imagine her life story, and his. She is inspirational. MM does make-believe for cameras, and his businesses make even more money while he acts, or lounges around on beaches, Aspen, Jackson Hole . . . . He's fine, he's a good actor, but life advice????? No way.
If I knew you, I would almost certainly admire you fare more than I admire anyone who does make-believe for cameras.
Mattie and the kardashians - not much daylight between them, other than he can act
@@JohnPublic-ox7mh....❤❤❤ COULD NOT AGREE WITH YOU MORE..
This speech is the motto of life and should be listened to everyday before we start. Get the negative out of the way, the bad influences, the wrong ways, the wrong people. Be your own priority, be the person you are meant to be.
Don't we wish we could give this advice to every child starting school and the challenges it brings with it. Thank you for your words, that have great meaning to us all.
What makes this so fine is the boiling down the chaos if our own thoughts. He is not giving us the usual platitudes. The man is genuine..
no he isn't. He's a actor. You know this. He's a brilliant actor, and his j-o-b is making people believe things whether true or not..
I love-love-love his films. But he's not genuine, no matter how much you believe he is. He's trying to do good things here, but it's the same as his film-acting
@@JohnPublic-ox7mh Regardless if he is acting this or not, it is the truth that will set your soul free, and THAT kind of compassion, direction, understanding, belief, and gratitude of self is still a much-needed healing. It is THAT that will bring people together again with God. So what if he is acting, the message is clear...don't fall into the trap! I will pray for you. God Bless.
It was all platitudes.
This is so timely for me that it's almost as if Matthew and I had a meeting just before he wrote this. I just turned 71 on Christmas Day. It is only within the last 30 days that I can say with all truth to God that I know who I am. I have become become confident for the first time in most every aspect of my life. However, I am a late-bloomer, and a baby boomer!
You go baby boomer. You are not in this alone. Some of us have been around and done a lot but are just now really getting going. God bless you!
Kristine. You are star dust. Age is of no concern. You are the Author. Always moving forward. I honor the Light in you
I turned 69 on Christmas day and I too am a baby boomer late bloomer. It all happens as it should ❤️🙏
I'm in the same place...and just turned 70. Isn't it great? Hoooray!
Youre never alone. You are amazing. May God bless you.
Love Matt McCounaughey's movies, interviews, speeches, and appearances in general... He looks like a very fun fella to be friends with!
please, really. I guarantee you'd be more fun to have a beer with than Mattie M. He's been playing make believe for cameras for more than 20 years. Sure he can act, but he's been a made man for a long time now. He has no idea of the struggle of the working class (you, me, most everyone here heaping praise).
I don't want a beer with mattie - I'd rather have a beer/whatever with literally anyone in this comment-section than him. Y'all have life stories to tell - real ones.
@@JohnPublic-ox7mh That's bitter. He's one of the very giving actors. We could use more of his variety in Hollywood.
Absolutely great speech! I had a 1SG that took me aside one day, when I was a young Infantry soldier. He saw that I was struggling with something (I don't recall what). And he told me something very similar. He said "look you can keep wondering. You can keep questioning yourself. Or you can stop self sabotaging yourself and just do it! Because anything worth a damn, is not easy"! I retired with 21 years in the Army. All in the infantry. Thank you 1SG. You helped me be a better man.
The best thing is that the 1SG told it to you in a few sentences. And that makes him way better than the speech we just heard.
You are blessed to have gotten that advice so early in life.
@@ThunderChunks I can't say that it is a better speech than what we heard. I just shared some really good advice that helped me progress in my military career and grow up as a young soldier. And you're definitely correct. I was very lucky to have been given that good advice. But that wasn't the only good advice that I was given throughout my career. And that advice that I handed down to my young soldiers. Thank you for the compliment. I wish you and yours all the best.
Thank you for sharing this bit of wisdom. I read it today just as I needed to. :)
@@iteachkids5297 That's awesome. I wish you and yours all the best. Have an amazing day
Huah!
Instead of thinking about becoming a millionaire we should be teaching people fiscal responsibility. Live below your means, invest for retirement, have 3-6 month emergency fund, save for your children’s college, pay off your mortgage (unless interest if less than 4%). Only when you have met these requirements then take risks in the stock market.
I think having an investment advisor is the way to go. I've been with one because I lack the expertise for the market. I made over $490K during the recent dip, highlighting that there's more to the market than we average folks know.
Hmmm this is quite interesting, Please can you leave the info of your investment advisor here? I’m in dire need for one.
*Julianne Iwersen-Niemann* is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
I just googled her and I'm really impressed with her credentials; I reached out to her since I need all the assistance I can get.
Fiscal responsibility is crucial, but it's also important to seize opportunities for financial growth. While building savings, investing for retirement, and maintaining an emergency fund are essential, the stock market, when approached with caution and risk management, can help build wealth. It's about balancing caution with taking calculated risks to grow financially, with diversification playing a key role
I'm 252 and this is the best advice there is!
Haha, 252 years or something else

00:03 Life is not easy, nor fair. Avoid feeling like a victim.
00:38 Prioritize your values and avoid anything that will jeopardize your soul.
01:19 Define success and work to maintain it.
02:01 Defining ourselves by what we are not leads us to really knowing who we are.
02:39 Avoid negative influences and prioritize meaningful interactions
03:13 Eliminate excess and decrease options to discover what's truly important
03:57 Eliminate who you are not and find yourself where you need to be
04:38 Embrace mistakes, own them, make amends, and move on.
Thank for resuming the content of the video. I've made a screenshot of your comment just to remember Matthew's words when I need the the most.
thanks yeah i screenshotted this summary too
Real talk love this!!!
Thanks, man 👌
Excellent job... And I screenshot too
Thanks man .. Excellent job..
Matthew McConaughey’s approach to crafting one’s identity is inspiring-he reminds us that we’re each the architect of our own journey, building a life that aligns with our values. His wisdom on owning mistakes, focusing on personal definitions of success, and cutting out what doesn’t serve us is the kind of guidance that grounds us in authenticity.
I wish I had seen this 50 years ago, but it's not too late for me. Thanks for sharing your journey, Matt.
50 years ago? you still got years ahead of you, make it yours
Don't blame yourself
Life is hard for stupid people
Your fury does mean anything
I love how he enlightens us on how success like beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Money and fame are great, but a life of joy starts with these simple ideals.
Thank you, thank you for reminding me of where I am in my life! My brother just dumped his stuff on me and I was feeling the victim. I found my voice many years ago and was strong until this happened! I had to hear this again! God bless! I am going to be ok again! 🙏❤️

Simply brilliant. This far surpasses any speech I have heard or read on paper. He is genuine in his word. Thought provoking that makes you to reach the inner core of your being and soul.
I remember my daughter's Waldorf teacher sharing this insight at a parent/teacher evening. She said that adolescents will start to "Try on" various behaviours and identities and that their maturation develops further as they begin to eliminate what didn't feel right or didn't feel good. It's like they're testing the world and themselves simultaneously, gradually discovering who they are at their core and who they are expanding into, thanks to the clarity that came from navigating what's ready to be dropped away. This is true for adults too of course! It really simplifies soaring towards our full potential sooner than later!
You've hit on a lot of personal trials that I'm still going through.
I'm in my 60s and still trying to understand this world 🌎😊
Thank You sooo much! God Bless you 💗

This is one of the most authentic and original speeches ive heard in a long time, i am making it part of my reality FROM TODAY 30 Nov 2023....thank you
I wish I had been told this 80 years ago. But it is never too late to start.
hows it coming along?
it's the literal opposite of authentic. There's more authenticity around your dinner table than any video or speech will ever have
@@JohnPublic-ox7mh call me cynical of the celebrities, but I did wonder how authentic this is... did he write it? Do any celebrity keynote speakers write their own speeches? Sure people want to believe, but those people also don't question it, enthralled by the idea that a celebrity of their liking says a few words they need or want to hear without thinking of the source.
I do think however better advice could be received from Mary Schmich's column from 1996 in the Chicago Tribune. She is a writer, and I think it does come off as more authentic from her own printed word, afterward falsely contributed to Kurt Vonnegut. Baz Luhrmann turned it into a spoken word song.
i see we wear different lenses and come from different worlds......its ok but it just means we are also free to state what we think.......thank you

Hope is not a strategy; make a plan.
Not just hoping but having faith that it is already better .
I knew there was a reason I loved this man the first time I heard him speak (not in a movie). He's a smart man!
he's an actor. An attention-hog. His life advice is meaningless; he has money, looks, and can act. End of. Get real
"First step is to know who you are not" is one of the best quotes i have heard.
Totally agree, that quote really hits deep! It's all about self-discovery and shedding the layers that aren't truly you. Matthew McConaughey's speeches are always so inspiring! 🙌🔥
This is classic Taoist, Buddhist or Zen insight. Not taking anything away from this guy's speech but Westerners quite often copy and paste spiritual truths that have existed for ages and act as if it's something they've just thought of themselves.
What?
Agree … it’s Powerful … excellent speech … much food for thought here …
I wondered who broke the internet, now I know
I found Matthew's speech to be incredibly helpful and enlightening. His personal approach to life is straightforward and inclusive. It's refreshing to have an opportunity to get advice that brings you up and doesn't give a lecture.
Now, if he would just learn to shower regularly…..
Mr. McConaughey, You need to run for President. I’m a 60 year old husband and proud father of a wonderful daughter. Your comments are spot on, genuine and sincere, they resonate with truth. You are not corrupted by special interests. The world needs the integrity you have. Let me know if I can assist you in saving our country and the future of our planet. God bless you.
I'd vote for him. Don't think he'll see your comment though since this is not his page.
That's one of the best summarizations of sound life lessons I have heard in a long time.... Basically, "make the changes that make us be better"... We just have to do it with God, by Him, and for Him. And enjoy it!
I guess I’m not the only one that thinks you are a wonderfully talented spokes person for all of us young and old @ Matthew Mc Conaughey.
Wow! This needs to go viral for every young adult to listen and open their eyes! Powerful!
Listen to this every day for 30 days and set your goals. I love the don’t waste time doing, eating, drinking, things that are not moving you to be all that you can be.

I'm making progress as a manager, I've met nice people, I'm burying family members, I'm watching children grow up, I'm hiking in nature, watching animals and being watched by them. When I die, I want to be remembered by people, animals and nature, not by computer games. But as he said, things change over the course of life. You change over the course of your life. What remains and what makes you are your memories and experiences. Don't let it be only computer games and films. You are more.
Wow! Definitely worth far more than the 5 minutes of my life it took to listen. Thank you Matthew! More than very inspiring. Definitely worth liiving by.
Best motivational speech I have ever heard. Why dont we have these type of motivational words in every graduation ceremony (both high school and colleges), giving positive feedback and true and honest outlook of life in general. We all need these.
Great words. I wish I had heard them 60 years ago. If like me, you're approaching your final years, forgive yourself if you haven't yet found yourself. In a way you have. No one stays the same. Set aside all of the noise of your thoughts. You may not have found your best self, but you have worked with what you had, what you still have now. There is no one who has not known compromise, not known failure. There is so little real peace in this life. Let yourself be at peace, first with yourself.
Beautifully said; means a lot to me; thank you.
Some regret you can't forgive yourself for and move on. Especially when a simple 30 second conversation would have prevented a death. 38 years later very few days go by I don't feel the pain of my poor decision.
Well said my friend
@narratordru7188 - I love the quote: "There is so little real peace in this life. Let yourself be at peace, first with yourself.". I would like to share it and credit you. Would you be willing to share your name?

I had gone through some tough trials and lost myself. I joined a voluntary rescue organization and in time saving others healed me. In offering up I got given a second chance and today 16 years later I'm in the heart of operations. Hope lives but ensure like he says, What you are not. I'm worth it, I'm not a failure, I will not give up, changes to "WE". You are not alone...I say again HOPE LIVES within YOU!

Mathew always talks from the heart and makes a lot of sense in his speeches. Great philosopher…
Did you ever consider the possibility that he is reciting a script? Isn't he an actor? Actors are known for their ignorance. And one of their own honestly admitted they are in the pretending business.
@@sorellman he's probably reciting from a script that he wrote. Him being an actor has zero relevance here, but you can keep jumping to conclusions if that's what you wanna do.
@@am_KorD Get back to us when you know for sure he wrote that script. "Probably" does not cut in the real world. I have seen this guy speaking in public, and he is no philosopher. Like the whole Hollywood, he is a phony. As Ray Liotta once said, "Listen, we are in the pretend business." MM reads from a script for a fee, or for publicity. Do not kid yourself. But you liked the title of the video, didn't you?
@@sorellman yeah get back to us when you have video proof of him "talking in public" not like a philosopher, because just telling someone that it happened "doesn't cut it in the real world" right? Who cares if he wrote the script or not? The point is that he gave the speech very well and has obviously motivated TONS of people with it just based on this comment section alone. You just love bringing people down don't you?
@@am_KorD "Who cares if he wrote the script or not?" So, now you admit you don't know if he wrote the script. Then why call him a "great philosopher."
You assume I have no "video proof" of MM talking in public. Really? There are no videos of him giving interviews?
"Tons of people..." How old are you? What kind of education level you have. We do not evaluate multitudes based on their weight, "TONS." And how do you know that he "obviously TONS of people?" You assume things, which means you zero proof he motivated "tons of people."
I certainly do not like bringing people down, but I do not allow others to bring me down to their level.
You need someone to worship? Put a cork on worshiping entertainers for no good reasons.

Excellent response
One of the most profound and meaningful speeches I have heard.. While I usually don't usually endorse or adhere to words of wisdom from actors, so called profits, politicians or entertainers, I must say his words are a guide for young and old alike. Seek the truth and let that be your guide. Truth will always lead you to knowledge and understanding.
Never hide problems. Talk about them. Hiding problems raise other problems. Talk about them. Speak up. Know your rights.
Loved this speech! Another reason to love Matthew McConaughey! 👏🏼👏🏼
Losing my job was the best thing that ever happened.. Being married to the best woman for 44 years made me the best I could be. So don’t let people ruin your day like they did mine 3 years ago.. I’m a much happier person now that I’m not in that place anymore with people that don’t respect me…. Take step back rewind and make it work it’s worth it…
he is right....Love is the answer.

Beautiful message x-" Do not spend time with anything that antagonises your character"-This is true and essential for your mental and spiritual well being.
Totally agree with the point. The first step is identification. Be true to yourself and answer the question: Who are you? Are you a person who follows amusements, or a person who follows achievements? After that comes step number 2. If you are the person who prefers easy pleasures, just lead a normal life; you don't need to think about improving or other stuff that will make you totally unhappy. But if you are the person who feels bad without achievements, it will be a long and hard journey, but you don't have any other ways. Just choose the niche and forget about everything around for years. And if you put all of yourself into that, probably you will get your personal happiness.😅
I love this because he boiled down my problems to simple manageable solutions. My favorite part was eliminating the things that don't lead us to who and where we want to be; so simple but also huge.
My biggest fear is to leave the world without achieving anything and this is enough to make me jump on the next challenge because a challenge means you are moving forward out of the usual comfort zone
Well… here’s the shocker… you already HAVE achieved! Many times!
The only issue is that you may not know it and that is only due to the fact of how you choose to recognize/measure the way and, or how you achieve in the first place.
Give yourself more credit for
there are many in this world that you have come across, whether you know it or not, that would give it to you unconditionally. Number one being the Devine/Universe and there are none higher!🤘
It doesn't matter if your a bum and homeless. Don't leave this world without knowing Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior for the forgiveness of your sins.
Are you becoming a better person? Cause yourself is all you control. Set your own standard of success and be reasonable. A life well lived, as in working on yourself, doing what you can, where you can, is not to be dismissed lightly.
@@Arulane We will always deserve hell and then the lake of fire until the day we die. We are all sinners.It was no joke that Jesus Christ had to die on a cross for our sins.
You are not the "doer". If you learn that neither are you a doer, nor you are the enjoyer...then you will be liberated! Literally!

I want to hear the man and not the loud music and crappy videos overlaid. Just the man speaking is all that is important
Yes please!!
Omg faxxxx, let me know if you find a channel that has speeches without all the music etc

try to close your eyes and focus the speech 😅
Make it your hill to search youtube
for this 45 minutes 6 year old speech.
Life ISN'T easy......it's true, so we do the best we can with what we know, lessons hard learned and lessons easily learned. That's the reason we are here on earth......to learn. Matthew is an excellent directive teacher, which is his calling.

I will be forever grateful to you, you changed my whole life and I will continue to preach on your behalf for the whole world to hear you saved me from huge financial debt with just a small investment, thank you Ann Fiocca
Wow. I'm a bit perplexed seeing her been mentioned here also Didn't know she has been good to so many people too this is wonderful, i'm in my fifth trade with her and it has been super.
The first step to successful investing is figuring out your goals and risk tolerance either on your own or with the help of a financial professional but is very advisable you make use of a professional.
Isn't that the same Mrs Ann Fiocca that my neighbours are talking about, she has to be a perfect expert for people to talk about her so well
I'm new at this, please how can I reach her?
I was skeptical at first till I decided to try. Its huge returns is awesome. I can't say much
A very powerful message from Matthew McConaughey. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Matthew 🙏
That is very solid advice! The process of elimination. Start with who you are not.
"I know who I am not." True wisdom is to know yourself well. Great advice and truths from one who has traveled far from celebritydom to an innate knowing of who he is.

@@av1421 in december 2023 i was walking to Mar-A-Lago to give Trump two phones and an envelope with my story in it. Alyssa Milano began screaming "do you know how long I have been spitting at him and your going to deliver evidence in a major investigation and your story?" you see alyssa milano has caused most of my pain and suffering she thinks she can dictate who I share with and where I share my story. When I arrived at Mar-A-Lago the security officers were acting strange and made statements I have heard from Park Police in San Antonio they refused to take the items for Trump. Thank God for many cameras around Mar-A-Lago.
Quit giving those things your time and put them down to spend more time going to more places that bring you joy and going places that are your identity.. I love this perspective.
Thank you, Matthew
Define your Hill and make that Hill! Geting it! His voice and accent is lovely.
This man should be the next President!! I absolutely LOVE Matthew!! He is so brilliant!!! May God Bless him and his family!!🙏
How profoundly true....Yes, and AMEN!
Stay close to Jesus. (Old guy from Arkansas)🇺🇸
Terrible idea.
You are 100% right because Jesus is 100% right.
Agree. Jesus is the right path.
Like he stays close to you? Or, the child that will die from leukaemia today? Religion makes fools of all of us.

Thank you I've been doin this process of elimination n it's sometimes lonely but feels right.Eliminate things people n places n move forward to my authentic self❤
A man full of wisdom!❤❤❤
I've always loved this speech Matthew. You really hit on the differences between what we've been doing, and what we have NOT been doing in the pursuit of living a fulfilling life.

Wonderful wise speech from a very wise man. Thank you💖
Happiness is what we make it- Always has been and always will be!
Amazing speech..thank you for sharing.
This one hit on a whole other level just wow!!! Made me cry but in a good way
Thank you Matthew amazing speech😊 ❤
Mr McConaughey, you have given me the answer & purpose ive been looking forward to. God Bless you Eddie the Bear from New Zealand
Great video Sir! Allow me to add that first and foremost “In God we trust! “✝️🙏✝️🙏❤️
i needed this clarity in my life. ive always seen myself as a victim and ive been holding back myself from my truest potential
To live a happy, healthy, and active lifestyle, full of love, passion, prosperity, and adventure.
A Ameen brother Mathew may the lord bless you and keep you always thank you for sharing this beautiful heartfelt video 🙏🙏🙏❤❤
Thank you Mathhew, you are right it is my journey and book to write. God Bless!
This is a very good speech, I am just wondering why every good speech needs to be screwed up by a motivational video containing 90% of people working out. Life is not just about that guys. Take what McConaughy says to the heart. Forget about the video. Just listen to it (with the nice music) and go from there. I have seen too many kids watching this kind of videos and spending all of their time in fitness thinking they will make it and achieve any goal they can think of.... just by spending hours and hours in the fitness centre... crazy
Such an inspiring way to kick off a Sunday morning... Thank you for sharing this-it really sets the tone for a productive and positive day.

Thank you to the Ryan Family..
Different things come into or go out of a person's life for different reasons. This happened to come into my life at just the right time to give me the courage I need to dig deeper and become something more than I was before. I hope this helps others to find the strength within themselves when they need it most.
😂❤ I wake up and thank the Lord !. Then beging life.
Absolutely loved this! The idea of knowing who we are by recognizing who we're not is powerful. Thank you for such an insightful and uplifting message!
Glad there were subtitles...the music is WAY TOO LOUD (and the stock footage takes away from the performance). Let's just see Matthew talk!
No lie! I had to quit halfway through.
Can hear his voice just fine.

Grazie per aver condiviso queste preziose informazioni.
Don't take things for granted either. Missing great opportunities is my greatest regret. Don't sell your soul for the pursuit of money!
Never regret anything, learn, but don't regret. We always imagine any change in our lives to be positive, it's kinda how our brains work, but that isn't reality. I always tell myself in such cases: "Had I done anything different in my life, I would've been run over by a bus five minutes later."
People like to imagine winning the lottery and becoming rich, thinking of all fun they could have, buying a yacht or whatever. They never imagine this yacht getting into a storm and sinking, and they themselves drowning. Or buying a sportscar and then crashing it on the way home and dying a painful death in the wreckage. Even though these outcomes are also possible, but we just don't realize that.
Any change to your life might have been positive, yeah, but it also might've ended up being negative, no matter what it is. The butterfly effect is unpredictable.
Love this insightful speech from Matthew McConaughey - he is extremely insightful
I have always said - where you are is not as important as how far you have come. I have more respect for someone who came out of poverty and now holds down a steady job with a steady income than I have for Mr. Hot-shot-rich-businessman who took over daddy’s company. But, hey…that’s my philosophy.
For sure😻
"Life's not fair never was. It isnt now! And it wont ever be!"
Did you even watch the video.😂
GREAT! Filtering out the noise does bring you to your robust self!
