JimCarrey i've seen this interview in a few places and maybe you have too but its worth repeating. around 1990 jim was a struggling canadian comic trying to be an actor. he drove to LA and looking down at the city lights he wrote himself a check for $10,000,000. thats right ten million dollars and dated it 5 years ahead for thanksgiving 1995 and wrote in memo line "for acting services rendered". he carried it in his wallet everyday. it was getting pretty tattered but a month before thanksgiving 1995 he found out he was getting paid 10 million dollars for his role in dumb and dumber. now thats keeping your goal in front of you. it also shows that physical acts and affirmations help us achieve our goals.
