To receive more newsletter episodes like this, sign up at lyricsoflivin.com I keep hearing this question from people: McConaughey, you are so courageous, how do you do it? Do you just power through every fearful decision? I grew up only knowing the courage of persistence. Be resilient, endure, get up, dust yourself off, go. Problem is, if you get up and keep on going every time, you can end up making the same mistakes each time around—stepping in the same pothole, twisting your ankle in the same spot. But I had to learn another kind of courage. The courage to stop and reflect and realize that more persistence might keep me blind from what I truly need. The courage that shows me what really is the bigger risk. -- #MatthewMcConaughey #McConaughey #McConaughey #newsletter #lyricsoflivin
