Will Smith’s recent films have turned me into somewhat of a fan. However, the video clip I share with you below made a much bigger fan out of me. You see, Will seems to really have an understanding on what it has to achieve true success and there is no doubt that Will Smith has learned how to live a Life Without Limits.
Perhaps some of you are thinking “anyone who has achieved the status in life that Will Smith has really has to understand it. “ Yes, that is true, to some extent. Certain thought processes need to come into play to achieve the same level of success. But I would bet that few of those actors and/or actresses have taken the time to really study the laws of success like Will has. And how many of them have the same goals that Will Smith has?
He said…
“I want to do good. I want the world to be better because I was here. ” ~ Will Smith
“I don’t want to be an icon. I want to be an idea. I want to represent an idea. I want to represent possibilities. I want to represent magic.” ~ Will Smith
Take a few moments to watch the video and you’ll see it is obvious that Will has spent a great deal of time studying the laws of success, and has developed a strong work ethic.
I particularly enjoyed his commentary about being realistic.

Some of my favorite Will Smith quotes I made note of from this video are:
“You can’t be scared to die for truth. Truth is the only thing that is constant.”
“Make a choice. Just decide what it is going to be, who you are going to be, and how you are going to do it.”
“You don’t try to build a wall. You don’t set out to build a wall” “You say, I am going to lay this brick as perfectly as a brick can be laid. And you do that every single day and soon you have a wall.”
“Being realistic is the most common road to mediocrity.”

Thank you for posting the video of the interview clips by Will Smith: What an impressive view of life and its possibilities!
I had no idea he had such a keen interest in philosophy or where his motivation comes from.

Heike,
You’re welcome. I had no idea either and found it very interesting. I have really grown to respect Will’s acting career and respect him much more so now that I understand a little bit about his core beliefs.
I believe I had watched this video in the past, but I am going to file this for future motivation and inspiration. Love his passion!

Stephen,
I also love his passion. In fact, that I believe that is what inspired me most about this video. Will’s ability to carry his message forward with such passion shows just how much he truly believes in what he is talking about.
