It’s 5am on a cold, wet Toronto morning…
My alarm buzzes in my hotel room and wakes me from my fitful sleep. My throat is sore and my body aches, and it doesn’t feel like the antibiotics are helping at all. I want to just pull the covers over my head and shut out the world until I feel better. But I can’t… I’m in Toronto for my Matthew Hussey Live tour, and I have four media appearances – 2 radio shows, co-hosting a TV show, and a magazine interview – followed by the sold-out 6-hour live event.
“Just getting through it” is not an option. I have to deliver my best no matter what. So what inspires me to push through and give all I’ve got (and more)?
That’s what this episode of “Love the Journey” is all about, so I’m dedicating this one to you…
Thank you matt love you to bits and pieces
I loved this video. Not only because of Mat. Jameson, you are talented film-maker! :)
Thanks for the great reminder of how to love the journey and constantly strive to improve. Your retreat, book, and emails have taught me such great principles. Thank you!!
Thank you for the inspiring video! Drink lots of boiled water with fresh ginger , lemon & honey :)) Love you.
Dear Matthew,
What is going on in Toronto that everyone is so freaking hot? Who was that Landon person? Serious question because, oh my goodness. And is he dating that model because she didn’t even look real, she was so beautiful. On the other hand, Landon should definitely date me instead so he can be the pretty one in the relationship. And, you looked quite dashing as well, Matthew, even with all the hacking and mucus. We still didn’t get to see Jameson which is kind of okay because then I can continue to picture a Malibu Pineapple with a cherry anytime I hear his name. Definitely with a cherry.
Anyway, I don’t really have any comments on this video in particular. But I did watch another video that your team emailed me a link to. And, I really, desperately want to know something. Why are men so drop-the-mike cray? Seriously. I just need to know why.
In your video, you spoke about a hypothetical situation where a guy was on a first date with a girl, and she happened to say that she likes to go out with her friends and they’re the ones laughing and having the best time at the bar. And, naturally, the guy, without asking any follow-up questions (you know, just to maybe be sure or something), then assumed that that one comment completely summed up her personality and he didn’t want to see her again.
What IS THAT? Guys know that’s completely crazy, right? You can’t possibly get to know who someone is on a first date, let alone by one off-hand comment made by someone who is on a first date. Unless they’re a serial killer and that’s your last date ever, wouldn’t it be a bit more logical to perhaps spend a little, tiny bit more time getting to know someone before completely writing them off?
I mean, if there’s no attraction there, then by all means move on. But to dismiss out of hand someone you find attractive based on ONE comment they made on a first date is bonkers. Totally, completely bonkety bonkers. How is this acceptable behavior on the part of a gender that, nearly to a man, considers themselves to be the more logical sex?
I cannot tell you how many times some guy who’s basically just met me already thinks he knows who I am. And, let me tell you, he doesn’t know me. At all. Even you seemed to find the guy’s assumption in your scenario to be perfectly valid. But I have to say — no. It’s not okay. Don’t be crazy. Irrationality is my least favorite personality trait besides poor personal hygiene and being creepy. Because, don’t be creepy either.
I will forever be indebted to you if you can answer this one question. I mean, how am I supposed to overcome sheer lunacy? There isn’t enough witty repartee on the planet to cancel that ish out.
Best,
Shannon
Love you! Keep up the great work! Can you please help….I’m trying to order your Secret Scripts and book How to Talk to Men but your online order page is not letting me. Is there an 800 number I can call to place an order?
I really enjoyed this video. Matt your am inspiration to us all. I really loved that you showed the good with the bad. This showed me that you really do care for your viewers.
Thank you so much Matt.
P.S. feel better!
Drinks lots of green tea with lemon.
Matt, Be as kind as you can to yourself in those moments! The world will certainly carry on while you are on an intermission. By showering yourself with love and nurture (what your body is telling you that you need more of) this will get you back on track quicker and with an extra punch. I truly appreciate you and all you do! -Dana
You are such a great inspiration for
me Each and every time
– you are the best!! :)
Big like!

Well done Lad. Really wonderful to see that a true-value professional work ethic still lives…don’t see much evidence of it, sadly..
Though you are a handsome man – you are stunningly beautiful when vulnerable, even if brought on by illness…we all are beautiful when we are vulnerable, to be sure, but particularly compelling bearing witness to a mans beautiful vulnerability. Good doc Jameson, well done w/ you as well!
Hey Matt,
First of all I hope and pray that you are feeling better and are well. One of the many traits that I love and admire that you do is your intergrity,your dedication and your devotion to present your best to the women you coach and care so much about! It is a unique quality to possess and because of your excellence you stand out and you have more influence which brings you into more ability to help people.
I am a Teacher and many times I have been sick but because so many kids are depending on me to be there I go and give it my best for them. Matt,you have this same quality and this makes me respect and love you more because I see the sacrifice you make when you are sick but because of your love for us you continue and are always there for us. God bless you and your team! I hope you are well by now and I will pray for your continued health.
Lots of hugs and love,
Debbie
Love the raw stuff! We really get to see the behind the scene and how you manage challenges. I really admire your consistency and how you value delivering your best and working around the unpredictable the best way you can, staying focused on your goal of helping others! It seems like you were really tested to see if you live up to your message, and I think you really do. This whole situation of being sick, not feeling your best but still choosing to show up is remarkable. YOu have shown how our reality can be shifted with our thoughts. You could have freaked out, got in total fear mode, and given up, but you didn’t! Inspiring journey of not pushing through the comfort zone and adapting to life circumstances.
Thanks for being an example of those traits Matt! Hope you can rest your body soon, seems like it’s asking for it ;)
Take care
Don’t overdo it Matt – you’ll make yourself worse! Trust me my Dad’s a Dr. There’s always Skype, human cloning or cyborgs.
P.S. Who’s the bird in bed with you – did you pull?!
Sore throat..
Use apple cider vinegar, mix 1 to 2 tablespoons of ACV into a small glass of warm water and then slowly sip the mixture. Drink at least once a day until the sore throat is gone. You can also add some honey for added benefit.
This can either work immediately or over a short
period but it Often works! Be well :)
Love what you do in this clip though! This is a first comment after have been watching you for almost 4 years. This clip resonates with me when I had been workaholic with travelling. My working and teaveling at that period torn me down sometimes actually. It was also the reason I started watching you on Youtube as well, finding self motivation. I remember the first clip for me was about how to be confidence in 3 layers ^.^ Keep going Matt… You are a KING of inspiring. I wish I can do 10% of you.
I love that Jameson has a voice more in this one. :)
Go, Matt Go! Your cheerleaders are cheering you on!!
Great video Matt!:) Thanks for sharing. Hope your cold is better. Take care:)
Love,
Kim
Dear Matt,
I am just wondering how long it will take that you will be an actor in a massive Hollywood production…maybe playing yourself.
You have hit the right thing, this what we need today- something real and honest, even if planed it comes across as totally natural. Thank you for the inspiring ♡♡♡
Hey Matt,
Come bring Jamieson and make a video of my bad days…I have a varied life but rarely boring!
Thanks to many aspects of my character and those who have helped in shaping it…you feature in my influence.

My “Get the Guy” account was closed for no reason, in the middle of the program, and I have no response from your team. Since I paid for the program, and since I have the right to receive the product I paid for, can I get a feedback of what happened?
