It’s Wednesday and today I usually do the Mid-week Meltdown. So what better way to do the meltdown than to have it coincide with my celebrity profiles. In the 2008 March Issue of Men’s Health Magazine Mathew McConaughey shares his 7 rules for a stress free life. Note: Nowhere in here does he mention that playing bongos naked and stoned is part of stress free lifestyle…but to each his own. The 7 rules he gives Men’s Health go in depth more than I will here. Key highlights are the best I’m going to do.
- See Eye To Eye With Your Job: “The situation can never be greater than you are. If you go into anything without respect you’re going to miss magic, miss truths.”
- Learn The Sneaky Workout. “I’ll drop and give myself 20 pushups at intervals throughout the day. 9 A.M. bang out 20. Pick up the medicine ball and don;t put it down for 30 minutes.”
- Customize Your To-Do list: “I’ll put fun things on my list to give me more things to cross off,”
- Adopt A Simple Philosophy And Live By It. “I like to do things right, and not cheat to get ‘em done. That’s what men do.”
- Insulate Yourself From Natural Disasters (That You Cause Yourself) : “If you’ve got positive, like mnded people around you, then your systems are in place.”
- Know What You Don’t Know: “The Amount of time you can save just by going ‘I don’t know,’ is huge.”
- Never Forget To Schedule The pleasure, Too: “There are some people that are so strict that they become a slave to their healthy lifestyle, a slave to working out, a slave to eating just right.” “I’m not going to a friends barbecue and say ‘I’m going to stick to salad.’ Who’s going to enjoy that? Lighten up! It’s your life-style, not your life.”
