Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

And now you're sitting here 40 years later going, I love you.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

Yeah.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

And that's just rhyme.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

I mean, we can't really add that up.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

Yeah.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

It's a science.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

When you look back, you see why it was that you were upset and...

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

ticked off that you had to pick up the kids' toys before you left and they were supposed to pick them up and therefore you were late for the thing that made you ran into and you ran into the person that was walking in the office, that's the guy that you did the interview, that's the guy you were looking for, the job you wanted and you caught him because you were in the elevator with him and that 90 seconds on that elevator is what got you that job that led you doing what you want to do.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

I mean, the significance is there, but we have to, I think what we also got to watch is, again, in that balance.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

What do we chase?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

Because if we just chase the engineering, we miss magic.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

If we just chase the mystical, we find ourself caught up in trying to give meaning to that Lego set that was on the floor that my kids didn't pick up.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

And what color was it?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

And why did I walk out that door and almost step on the Legos?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

But if I had gone out the other door, I usually go out of, I would have gone there, I would have got there early and wouldn't have run into the boss.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

So you can start to give too much meaning

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

Meaning on that as well, I think we can give significance in too many places.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

And all of a sudden, I think we've all been there where you're seeing art in every single thing.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

Man, that can be paralyzing.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#384 โ€“ Matthew McConaughey: Freedom, Truth, Family, Hardship, and Love

It's like, it's hard to leave a room if everything's significant, you know, or if everything's a sign.
