Write things down so I can forget them: Matthew McConaughey

“I started keeping a journal when I was 14. A lot of people do so at that age. I was confused and I wrote down every question that popped in my head, and every little problem I had. Later on, I continued to write when things were going well, when I was doing well, when my relationships with people improved,” he recalled. The actor added: “But when I look back, I think to myself the kind of flow I was in at that time. What journaling does for me is that I don’t write things so I can remember, I write things down so I can forget them. If I want to go back to the inspiration I had, I know that it’s been written down and I don’t have to think hard about remembering it.” “You and I both have an optimism problem,” Barrymore replied.
