thedailywhat: Letter Of Note of the Day: In 1969, a relatively unknown 28-year-old actor/martial artist named Bruce Lee sat down to pen a letter to his future self outlining what he termed his “definite chief aim.” Transcript is as follows: My Definite Chief Aim I, Bruce Lee, will be the first highest paid Oriental super star in the United States. In return I will give the most exciting performances and render the best of quality in the capacity of an actor. Starting 1970 I will achieve world fame and from then onward till the end of 1980 I will have in my possession $10,000,000. I will live the way I please and achieve inner harmony and happiness. Bruce Lee 1969 [lon.] I’m going to do this.  It’s a good idea, at the very least it will help me to affix my goals and a timeline for achieving them.  Then of course there’s all that about “the Secret” and “the Power of Intention.”  I wonder though, did he mail it?  And if so, who to?  I think I’ll just mail mine to my mailbox and then keep it somewhere unopened...

My Definite Chief Aim

I, Bruce Lee, will be the first highest paid Oriental super star in the United States. In return I will give the most exciting performances and render the best of quality in the capacity of an actor. Starting 1970 I will achieve world fame and from then onward till the end of 1980 I will have in my possession $10,000,000. I will live the way I please and achieve inner harmony and happiness.

Bruce Lee
1969

[lon.]

I’m going to do this.  It’s a good idea, at the very least it will help me to affix my goals and a timeline for achieving them.  Then of course there’s all that about “the Secret” and “the Power of Intention.”  I wonder though, did he mail it?  And if so, who to?  I think I’ll just mail mine to my mailbox and then keep it somewhere unopened...
