Mathew McConaughey might not star in some of my favorite movies, but he does what he wants when he wants to do it and that is why he is one of my favorite actors. Along with this, a lot of my family is from Longview, Texas and even attended Longview High School with him so I knew much of the high school bits from this book, which actually made them somehow more entertaining. Anyways, tangent about my weird correlation with McConaughey over, this book was simply amazing. I loved a lot of the advice and the way he gave it in the audiobook (you simply have to listen to the audiobook of this it's incredible) and even though I follow the advice already, the stories that came with it were so good that it didn't matter. And just because I follow a lot of the advice in this book, I don't follow all of it, and while listening to this book I could feel my own self puzzling out my own advice along with it, discovering parts of my own self that I never really thought about before. Okay, I guess I just went on another tangent huh?
All in all, even if this book doesn't give you more philosophy on your own life or lets you discover the secrets of the universe, I guarantee the stories that are packed alongside it are really entertaining especially when getting to hear Mathew tell them in his own voice.
