An Unabridged Will Smith's memoir "WILL"

Nov 13, 2021

Trust the power in WILL as it delivers, right from the first chapter as it unveils how and when a boy becomes a man. This West Philadelphia's born rapper turned American actor, paves a way for his readers to relentlessly lay brick by brick one at a time. Facing all odds yet delivering day after day, if WILL can, all can bring all their piped dreams to reality. The power in WILL is his love and respect for his lie detector mom Caroline Bright’s life-changing response to his once abusive father “You can hit me but can’t hurt me”. What a powerful statement to bounce back for anybody feeling oppressed.

Comedy has been the elixir of Will’s life. As he vividly chats with Oprah, he reaffirms “Laughter triumphs everything. It’s a magical energy that connects people and for a brief moment purifies the poison”. For all those who are just daydreamers and not go-getters, Will cautions with a punch in your stomach omnipotent quote “The problem is delusion works like poisoned honey, it tastes sweet in the beginning but ultimately ends in misery. A mind that tries to seek pleasure and comfort and the easy way inadvertently poisons its dreams”

Having been credited to 76 movies as of 12th November 2021 is as powerful as his boisterous father ensured Will, being called Willard Carroll Smith (I) not Will Smith junior, as Junior sounded a bit too demeaning and condescending. At a very early age, Will’s parents have been a major impact on infusing leadership traits . For example, bringing in the sense of ownership mentality by letting everyone know that at a time only one person can be accountable as two people trying to own would be a disaster - a signpost for sure shot DEATH.

From a struggling salesperson taking custody of his son in “THE PURSUIT of HAPPYNESS” to a father coaching his daughters on Tenis as Richard Williams in “KING RICHARD” (releasing on 19th Nov 2021), Will Smith has been a guidepost for an ideal father. Will has admitted in his memoir how his personal life facing a strict, disciplinarian and alcoholic but sober father has shaped him to be the person he is today.

Will has always been a smooth-talking man wooing audiences of all age groups. The Kevin Bisch written 2005 flick HITCH is a great representation of the actual Will in real life. There are quite many similarities between the lead character and the will we see even today in his YouTube originals. The reason that Will gives behind him loving Dubai shows the way he thinks.

Because as per Will, we all have one life to live and we need to make the most out of it. And the city of Dubai is a living testimonial as rather than building any other concrete building; they built the Burj Khalifa, the worlds tallest skyscraper.

See Will’s reasoning behind the deep love expresses towards Dubai. So true as Dubai is indeed a great example of doing most of the least you have. Now to walk the talk by proving that nothing is impossible if you set realistic goals, our Will here has climbed this 160-floor skyscraper.

Any human watching this landmark YouTube video of Will waving hand sitting on the top of the tallest building ever built, shall for sure give goosebumps and an adrenal to push ourselves to do something worthwhile when we are alive.

At 52, taking up a challenge to look fitter and slimmer, Will has shown us all how he is in the best shape of his life. Somehow Will seems to bring the characters in his movies alive in real life. Anybody who has watched the 2019 release GEMINI MAN can correlate as Will faces off against a younger clone of himself.

Seeing Will on the day of his book release “WILL”, you will feel short of words to praise this fantastic, charismatic, ever jovial Will Smith. Winning five Golden Globe Awards, two Academy Awards, four Grammy Awards, Will still has the hunger in his belly. The secret recipe of Will’s grounded stardom might be in the way he has preserved the child in him. Listen to Will and with his natural abilities as a superb storyteller, he will bring a smile to your face.

That’s why this book ought to be read as who on earth does not love to hear a story of a person who is born with all the odds but still made it big. There are very few who stand up to the real meaning behind their names and Will is one among those. The power in this foot soldier called Willard Carroll Smith (I) shall rekindle the spirit of life and shall demand each one of the readers of this great living legend to come out of comfort zones and be the ALI and ALADDIN of your life.
