If you follow the self-development world you may have heard that Matthew McConaughey came out with a new book.
Typically, McConaughey is known for his down-to-earth good ole boy vibe, but when you read his book you may realize just how intentional and disciplined he is. Matthew McConaughey throughout his book displays what this show is all about, we like to help people live intentionally to unlock their ultimate potential.
In today’s episode listen in as we talk about McConaughey’s “egotistical utilitarian” method along with the importance of kindness and how it can only push you forward in life. We have an honest conversation where we talk about prioritizing your own growth to have a greater impact on the people around you, as well as intentionally adding practical steps that will have you moving towards true passion and happiness.
Our show today is full of food for thought, so grab a pen and paper and get ready to do some introspection and find the areas where you’ll unlock your full potential. No matter where you are in life, what privileges or disadvantages that have been thrown your way we know you have the power to create just where you want to go.
You could take one concept from today’s episode, apply it to your life, and it will not only change your physical life, but your emotional life, your family life, and every area in between.
As Helmut Schmidt said, “The biggest room in the world is the room for improvement.”
