      imagine sitting listening to this speech from a multi millionaire telling you money isn't important and only being nice matters, Money is the most evil thing on this planet and actors or sport stars sitting saying it's not about the money while they have to much is what is wrong in the world. People and kids are starving to death but people like matthew held out for that extra 5 million on his last acting job. Think about it.

      Here's something I learned as an Army medic who never saw combat ...
      Mostly life sucks But you can be happy anyway.
      Being happy is fun and it pisses off the vermin who vex you.
      Happiness happens in the sillyest places.
      Seek and you shall find.

The one thing I have come to believe, just now. The realisation of happiness is a dream. If you had it ,what else is there ? It’s a way of life. Let look at it not for it x

I am facing legal issues that can take me from the ones I love. I am 52 years old and should be wise and happy in life. But I am not. This is the best motivational and inspiring speeches I have ever heard.God put this out there for me to hear so I can have hope in my life that even at this age it's not to late for me or anybody else out there who is watching this video. Thank you Mr. McConaughey and Thank you Lord for leading me to this very wise and inspiring words. Much Love and God Bless everyone.

    My Dad was full of wisdom. He said to do all things in moderation. Stay in the middle.
    As people most of us live in denial. Its a living perpetual lie. A mindset that allows us to do the things we know aren’t beneficial to us. If our hidden facade is exposed we get defensive...,stay close minded. Some folks are NEVER wrong. To be free of this position , take the opposite path. Be open minded. Be wrong and admit you don’t know all the answers. Learn to say we and stop saying I all the time. Let others speak and listen without judgement. Be patient. We know what to do. What is difficult is putting it into practice and consistency. In this world, the cards are stacked against us. Life moves fast. Somebody always seems to need something from you. Your job is so demanding and leaves you tired with no free time. Sound like you? It’s all of us. Never enough money, rising prices, corruption and greed rule the land. As if life isn’t hard enough.,,,Now let’s add a virus, excesses of racism, rich getting richer, poor folks fighting to stay alive while others have more than they could ever spend....LIFE IS TOUGH! Take a deep breath. Now listen to these words very carefully. SIMPLICITY, PATIENCE, COMPASSION. YOU WILL BE OKAY. YOU ARE NOT ALONE. YOU ARE LOVED. ALL THIS DARKNESS WILL PASS.

    As a Victim of Violence, I identify myself as a Survivor. It is a journey of healing, each day teaches me something new about myself. When you live with constant death threats, degrading humiliation, intimidation, gas lighting, and under constant tracking and surveillance, it reduces your normal options. You become a survival artist and deeply attached to meditation and prayer. Then you become a Exit Strategist constantly vigilant of dangers. I survived. If anyone is in a relationship that is toxic and dangerous- know that it’s not your fault and you can escape...reach for life!

      I also identify myself as a survivor!! I AM NOT a victim!!! I'm an overcomer with ambition, an immortal finish line, self respect, a deep love for the attributes God created me with and a desire to use them the way He intended! My habits are purposeful, my hobbies are purposeful, the way I spend my time is purposeful, how I treat others is purposeful and my choices are purposeful, because life is not accidental! Success is not accidental! Joy is not accidental! I applaud you!!! Press forward toward what lies ahead, leaving that which is behind! Go girl GO!!!!!

    I've been addicted to drugs, junk food, gaming, porn, victim mentality and i'm sure a few others I can't think of right now. I have spent the last 3 years trying to change those bad habits. While i'm not where I want to be, I am where i'm at, trying to improve, not daily, but chipping away slowly.
    I think the best things you can do, this is just what's worked for me, taking care of yourself more, having self respect, not caring what others think, living my life the way I want it to be lived, eating well and lifting weights/ exercising. Find and pursue those things you love. Anyway, I just wanted to hear Mr McConaughey's voice. Texas ranger.

      I agree so much time is spent dwelling on the people who hurt us and say things they don’t mean as a person in a short lived life being angry and complaining it’s so much wasted time and so much of life is wasted being angry and upset and agitated we end up only have lived a unhappy life and it takes our peace and joy away from our souls and every day we are here it eats away the good and pushes out the bad and if we allow the horrible ones out of us .

    I rarely ever comment but needed to here…
    Since my separation and divorce from the same man …
    I’ve been with him my entire life for 17 years - I am now 34.
    Since separation -I’ve been doing the inner intense healing work on myself, therapy and listening to motivational or educational videos at night - such as this is one .. which btw is one the best I’ve come across as far. I’ve been watching one video at night for the last five months and this is one of the top five videos. I appreciate Matthews ability to articulate the message that he wants to spread and stick and I found myself stopping to take notes throughout to make sure that I don’t miss any of those GEMS he dropped.
    I will definitely be sharing with my friends and family and thank you and your channel for posting such amazing videos I am a subscriber and I always appreciate your uploads.
    Know that you were making such a difference in folks live such as myself during very difficult times.
    Thank you for all of your hard work and I know this is coming from not just myself but thank you for all of us!!

    I LOVED IT! Especially at the 32 min. mark when that "Big/Strong!" woman came walking through right behind him(giving a rather stern glance) just as he was saying something about "overcoming your fear". I "instantly" took this as being "a sign" that "HE" should be fearful of HER! I smiled about this and replayed it a couple of times, rather joyfully. And then, upon "going back" a bit further into his talk about "fear" I've reevaluated my "decision". "SHE" was likely "MOTIVATED" into "sucking it up"(the fear) and getting out of her seat and walking right across the screen. And that short, but stern "glance" was her "Acknowledgement"(showing off?) of "SEE THERE! I AIN'T AFRAID!". And if THIS "version" is actually "the truth"... Matthew McConaughey is "healing" people as he speaks here!!!

Asking for help is the hardest thing but once I took the first step and just did something toward a goal momentum builds I’m back in flow and taking the small and big wins as success doing and not caring the outcome.

    For me this is like, why keep endlessly hoping for Jesus, when you have humans like him around? We are it if we can muster like he does all his life. Even if we can't, someone like him can do. Keep trying to be the best you can for everyone around you, eventually another great person like Matthew will come. Not just Jesus, the fellow person you grew up with.

But I can smile just watching my dogs play and it makes me happy. We all have the capacity for good and evil. Sometimes what we are is forced on us and sometimes we choose it based on survival or acceptance.

    My secret to life is living moment by moment, when you live day by day minute by minute your life is less stressful and all anxiety leaves and you are able to perform 4 jobs a day rather just one job. I own over 80 properties, groom dogs, i enjoy our vacations, 4 grandchildren and i jog 2 miles every day. Some will say ," how do I do all this in one day?" I never sit down and I live moment by moment. God bless everyone. Some people will never find the happy medium because their life is drama which is all they will ever know. Humans are creatures of habit. Good luck to those who won't let themselves live their lives moment by! moment. Great speech Matthew
