John Corbett says to let things go if they don't matter. 

WHAT DO YOU KNOW NOW THAT YOU DIDN'T KNOW IN YOUR '20s and '30s

JOHN CORBETT, star of TNT's new mystery film "Ricochet," guest star on "Parenthood"  and Aidan Shaw on "Sex and the City."

"There are a couple of things I know now that I didn't know in my '20s. First, nobody cares what my opinion is. I know that now. When I was younger, I thought everybody needed to know my opinion and it's just not true.

"The second thing I know – and it sounds so trivial and cliché – is that nothing really matters in the big picture because we're here for such a short time. To argue about anything really doesn't make any sense at all.

"Of course, I still spend way too much time fighting for something if I believe in it, but then I remind myself, 'It doesn't really matter in the big picture.' So, I'm trying to do that less and less….and just enjoy life."
