Surprisingly deep philosophy on navigating uncertainty and adversity. McConaughey's 'greenlights' framework—turning red lights into green lights through perspective and effort—applies directly to product building and startups. His insights on knowing when to persist and when to pivot, earned through decades of career ups and downs, resonate with building products. Refreshingly honest about failure, rejection, and finding your path. Great reminder that success rarely follows a straight line.
