Fantastic Inspirational Message from Actor, Will Smith

Actor Will  Smith shares his philosophy about life (see video at the end of this post.)

In an interview with the Daily Telegraph (AU Edition) Smith says the keys to his life are reading and running.

Yes, reading and running.

After a chuckle, he goes on to explain.

“There are millions and billions of people who have lived before us, and they had problems, they solved them, then they wrote it down in a book somewhere,” says Smith, nodding his head as he continues his lecture.

“So, there’s no new problem that we have that we have to figure out ourselves.

“There’s no issue we have that somebody has not already written the answer down in a book.

“The concept is bittersweet because you know it’s in a book somewhere, but you actually have to find the right one that will give you proper information.

“The running aspect is how you connect with your weakness.

“When you get on a treadmill, you deprive yourself of oxygen.

“What kind of person you are is going to come out very, very quickly.

“You’re either the person who says they are going to run three miles and stop the treadmill at 2.94 miles (4.73 km) and you call that three miles, or you get off after a mile.

“Or you are the type of person who runs hard through the three-mile finishing line and then realise, ‘I could do five miles’ and you go ahead and do it.

“That little person inside your head starts talking to you and says ‘We should stop. I think we’re really hurting ourselves. I don’t think this is healthy anymore’.”

Smith continues, comparing the voices from that “little person in his head” he hears on the treadmill to the same temptations that could ruin his marriage.

“When you get command over that little person, it allows you to get over that little person when he speaks to you in other aspects of your life,”  Smith explains.

Here is Will Smith at the 2005 Kid’s Choice Awards sharing this great advice with a multitude of kids and adults!
