Purpose And Fulfilment - Jim Carrey
‘So many of us choose our path out of fear disguised as practicality.’
‘You can fail at what you don’t want, so you might as well take a chance on doing what you love.’
‘I wish people could realise all their dreams and wealth and fame, so that they could see that it's not where they're gonna find their sense of completion.’
‘This is the voice of the ego. If you listen to it, there will always be someone who is doing better than you. No matter what you gain, ego will not let you rest. It will tell you that you cannot stop until you’ve left an indelible mark on the earth, until you’ve achieved immortality. How tricky is this ego, that it would tempt us with the promise of something that we already possess.’
‘I can tell you from experience, the effect you have on others is the most valuable currency there is.’
– Jim Carrey
In this video, Jim Carrey reflects on valuable life lessons and touches on existential topics such as purpose and fulfilment. I recommend watching this video every couple of months to keep things in perspective.
