Jim Carrey’s Commencement Address at the 2014 MUM Graduation

Mind blowing Speech! Do watch it, please.
Start watching from 10:18, if you’re short on time.

You can fail at what you don’t want, so you might as well take a chance at doing what you do love.

The effect you have on others, is the most valuable currency there is. 

Because everything you gain in life will rot and fall apart, and all that will be left of you, is what was in your heart.

Your need for acceptance can make you invisible in this world.

I was concerned about going out in the world and doing something bigger than myself, until someone smarter than myself made me realize that there was nothing bigger than myself!

The ego tries to keep you trapped in the multiplex of the mind, and if you listen to it, there will always be someone who’s doing better than you.

How tricky is this ego, that it would tempt us with a promise of something that we already possess!

So it’s all just about letting the universe know what you want, and working towards it, while letting go of how it comes to pass.

And when the door opens in real life, just walk through it!

Oh well, and, why not take a chance on faith as well? 🙂

You’ll only ever have two choices – love or fear. Choose love, and don’t ever let fear turn you against your playful heart.
