Iowa’s Maharishi University of Management had a very special guest recently when movie funnyman Jim Carrey dropped in to say hello and give a speech. The 52 year-old Ace Ventura star showed both his funny and serious sides as he spoke openly and honestly about his late father and some of the advice he passed down to him. It’s a heartfelt talk and an interesting take on life…
‘I learned many great lessons from my father, not the least of which was that you could fail at what you don’t love, so you might as well take a chance on doing what you love. I’ve often said that I wish people could realize all their dreams and wealth and fame, so that they could see that it’s not where they’re gonna find their sense of completion.’ Wise words, indeed. Sounds like Jim’s dad knew what he was talking about…
Watch the speech in full here. It’s full of wisdom, ideas, inspiration and laughs. The perfect combination!

Proof that there are always two sides to every coin. Even the funniest, craziest of people have a heart and insight. It’s worth listening to everyone once in a while.
