Matthew McConaughey is considered one of Hollywood's favorite actors, pushing boundaries with each new role. He started his career with roles in various romantic comedies and over the years turned into one of the leading drama actors.
His ability to adapt to each character he plays and the physical and mental preparation he goes through also earned him a prestigious Oscar. It is about the film Dallas Buyers Club, in which he shocked with his physical transformation. As an actor who constantly pushes the boundaries, it is no surprise that he ventures into literary waters. In addition to his literary debut, Matthew can also boast of having become a professor at the University of Texas at Austin.
Autobiography of Greenlights, named one of the best books of the year by the Guardian, won over millions of readers with its unflinching honesty, unconventional wisdom and lessons about living a life full of contentment.
"I've been living this life for fifty years, for forty-two years I've been trying to solve its puzzle, and for the last twenty-five years I've been keeping journals about possible solutions to this puzzle. Notes about successes and failures, joys and sorrows, things I wonder about and what makes me laugh out loud. How to be honest. How to relieve stress. How to have fun. How to cause less pain to others. How can others hurt me less. How to be a good person. How to find meaning in life. How to be more authentic with yourself. Lately I've worked up the courage to open these journals. I found stories I've witnessed and experienced, lessons learned and forgotten, songs, prayers, beliefs about what's important, and lots of car stickers. I found consistency in the ways I approached life, and it gave me more satisfaction then and now.”, are the words with which Matthew McConaughey opens his autobiography Green Lantern.
