BE THE HERO.
Matthew McConaughey talked about his hero being his future self - - himself 10 years from now. This acknowledgement that the best is in front of us and we have the opportunity to do amazing things in the future.
The New Orleans Pelicans guard, JJ Redick was sitting down at his alma mater, Duke University, with the then current basketball team. He saw one of the young men with a tattoo that said ARRIVED. He was quick to point out that we have never arrived and we are always BECOMING.
A fun question many interviews will ask celebrities or elite athletes is “If you could go back in time, what advice would give you to your younger self?” While we all can mull this over with what we know now about life and the experiences we have had - - another way to look at this would be to flip the question - - What would you write in a letter to your future self???
Take some time today and think about what that letter into the future would say. Also — why shouldn’t your hero be you in ten years??? You have everything in front of you and where you are today is not complete. We are always BECOMING!
