When Ashton Kutcher gave his acceptance speech at the Teen Choice Awards he quieted the screaming crowd with some surprisingly good life advice – even for us old folks. Watch the video here:
I liked these quotes:
“Opportunity looks a lot like hard work. I’ve never had a job in my life that I was better than.” (another reminder about the value of living in the moment)
“The sexiest thing in the entire World is being really smart, and being thoughtful, and being generous.” (how often do we think less of ourselves because our bodies aren’t what we’d like them to be?)
“You can build your own life.” (you are not a victim of circumstances)
I look forward to seeing Kutcher portraying Steve Jobs in a movie released this week. I wonder if the film will include Jobs’ Stanford commencement speech, which I still read whenever I need a moment of inspiration.
