GREENLIGHTS or the Art of Running DownhillĀ
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERĀ
Discover the life-changing memoir that has inspired millions of readers through the Academy AwardĀ®āwinning actorās unflinching honesty, unconventional wisdom, and lessons learned the hard way about living with greater satisfaction.Ā
"Iāve been in this life for fifty years, been trying to work out its riddle for forty-two, and been keeping diaries of clues to that riddle for the last thirty-five. Notes about successes and failures, joys and sorrows, things that made me marvel, and things that made me laugh out loud. How to be fair. How to have less stress. How to have fun. How to hurt people less. How to get hurt less. How to be a good man. How to have meaning in life. How to be more me.Ā
Ā Ā
Recently, I worked up the courage to sit down with those diaries. I found stories I experienced, lessons I learned and forgot, poems, prayers, prescriptions, beliefs about what matters, some great photographs, and a whole bunch of bumper stickers. I found a reliable theme, an approach to living that gave me more satisfaction, at the time, and still: If you know how, and when, to deal with lifeās challengesāhow to get relative with the inevitableāyou can enjoy a state of success I call ācatching greenlights.āĀ
Ā So I took a one-way ticket to the desert and wrote this book: an album, a record, a story of my life so far. This is fifty years of my sights and seens, felts and figured-outs, cools and shamefuls. Graces, truths, and beauties of brutality. Getting away withs, getting caughts, and getting wets while trying to dance between the raindrops.Ā
Ā Hopefully, itās medicine that tastes good, a couple of aspirin instead of the infirmary, a spaceship to Mars without needing your pilotās license, going to church without having to be born again, and laughing through the tears.Ā
Ā Itās a love letter. To life.Ā
Ā Itās also a guide to catching more greenlightsāand to realizing that the yellows and reds eventually turn green too.Ā
Ā Good luck.Ā
