Who’s Your Hero?

(GivenUs.com) – Who inspires you? Do you have a hero? A parent, world figure, author? Maybe in order to live your best life, your hero needs to be you?

In this gripping video, Matthew McConaughey shares the pivotal benefits of being your own hero:

It takes more than just saying it — becoming your own biggest hero takes a series of life lessons and challenges along the way. Let’s explore.

Keep chasing your future self. Make your hero yourself, only 10 years from now. Strive to be your best version of a human. Always keep that hunger. Make it what drives you each day.
Get comfortable with who you are. Learn to love yourself whether you’re in a crowd of 100 or by yourself. Never use someone or something to bring you complete joy, or you may become too reliant. For true love, look within.
Don’t make life easy. Life is all about challenges and disappointments. If it were an easy road, the rewards wouldn’t feel so magnificent. Accept the fact you may lose at times, and when you do win, it may feel bittersweet.

Life is a series of ups and downs. People can inspire, guide and lead the way. But at the end of the day, you have to be satisfied with what’s in the mirror. Love who you are, flaws and all. There are no duplicates. And for a very good reason.
