Emulating ‘The Most Interesting Man in The World’
I am not a big fan of commercials or advertisements generally, however, if they can be humorous or insightful, such as one kind of commercial that has captivated me for years, on what it is like to be ‘the most interesting man in the world’. I have long had a soft spot for the now defunct ‘Dos Equis’ beer commercials focusing on the character of “The Most Interesting Man in The World.” These commercials were not only humorous but also served as a cheesy yet truthful take in my view regarding how to be a more well-rounded, open-minded, confident, curious, and adventurous person. You don’t have to be the most interesting man or woman in the world, but I think these commercials did do a good job of why it’s necessary in life to embrace curiosity, experience, adventures, and being charismatic.

Oprah Winfrey — From Mississippi Mud to Global Influence: A Motivational Biography

The False Myths of the Self-Made
We live in an era where personal success has become almost a moral duty. If you haven’t reached the top all by yourself, then something must be wrong with you. At least, that’s the message we keep hearing everywhere: in motivational talks, in viral social media posts, in interviews with “self-made billionaires” who claim that, starting from nothing, they built empires with sheer willpower, grit, black coffee… and views.
