Discipline, hard work but above it all love, giving and selflessness. Ability to change and to listen is also a talent.

Angela Trudel: I read this book when it first came out. I was excited about it, as Will Smith has always held a special spot in my heart. I don’t like all his movies, but find him to be an entertaining actor. The book was very interesting, but I can’t lie I walked away from it, liking Will Smith less. I think there’s a thing about being too honest or maybe we just like the idea that celebrities are perfect. I feel sad for him, but he seems to enjoy the toxicity in his life as long as he’s getting the attention he wants. I think he needs to spend some time alone in a place where no one recognizes him and no one cares who he is even if they do. He needs some humbling, alone time, and hopefully the thing with Chris Rock gives him the slap of reality he needs.

Phellep A. Snow: This book is a great read from cover to cover. Although it started a bit different than what I expected, each chapter added to the upcoming narrative.
This book gave me great insight of how this celebrity navigated their career and provided a generous glimpse into their ups and downs.
I have benefited from this reading with introspection in how we can lead ourselves to jeopardy and the lessons that can be learned and facilitate the growth opportunities that it offers.
Anyone that wants to see what life can be like at the highest levels or has desire for growth can benefit from reading this book.

Yasmina: Ce livre m'a transporté dans la vie de Will Smith.
J'ai découvert de nombreuses facettes de sa personnalité et des détails de sa vie que j'ignorai.
La collaboration avec Mark manson apporte un léger côté développement personnel qui rend le livre doux comme du miel.
Je conseille vivement !

It's The Writer in Me: I read the audiobook version of this book and absolutely loved it!! The production value was everything you’d expect from an A-List actor. The book went into his life and upbringing, of course, but there was valuable lessons that emerged that can be applied in everyday life. I allowed a friend of mine to listen to it with me and she said it just spoke to her so strongly that she purchased a copy for herself. This book was gifted to someone who also enjoyed. It really is worth the read.

R NicholsonR Nicholson: "Will" is more than just an autobiography - it's a powerful story that resonated deeply with me, revealing the incredible journey of renowned actor and musician, Will Smith. Co-written by Mark Manson, this book delves into Smith's humble beginnings in West Philadelphia and his rise to becoming a global superstar. His story serves as a testament to resilience, courage, and the indomitable human spirit.
The early chapters transported me into Smith's childhood, growing up in a modest home in a challenging neighborhood. He faced poverty and a difficult family life marked by an alcoholic father. These formative experiences forged a resilient spirit in him, which became evident as his life unfolded. Smith's strong work ethic and positive outlook on life, which I found incredibly inspiring, were instrumental in overcoming the numerous hurdles he encountered throughout his life1.
Smith's rise to fame began with his passion for music. Starting his career as a rapper at a young age, he teamed up with DJ Jazzy Jeff, releasing his first album at just 16. Emboldened by his early success, he moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting after high school. This bold decision led to a...

LIMA CHARLIE - Loud and ClearLIMA CHARLIE - Loud and Clear: Feedback für Will Smith und Mark Manson - WILL von 2021
Wahnsinns Biografie, unabhängig von all seinen Fehltritten zuvor.
Für mich ist Will Smith einer der Helden meiner Kindheit. Mit der Serie, der Prinz von Bel-Air (1990-1996) und Filmen wie Bad Boys (1995), Independence Day (1996) und Men in Black (1997), stürmte er nicht nur die Charts, sondern sich auch in die Herzen von Millionen und Abermillionen von Zuschauern.
Vor seinen Filmen startete er im Musikgeschäft als Rapper sehr erfolgreich durch, wurde dann Schauspieler; Filmproduzent, Selbstdarsteller, Entertainer im globalen Showgeschäft.
Ich werde euch jetzt nicht jeden Film seiner Karriere aufzählen, sondern möchte eher die reflektierte Aufarbeitung eines 50+ jährigen in Form seiner Biografie bewerten.
Inhaltlich kann man die klassischen “Learnings” auf wenige, doch wie immer essentielle Dinge herunterbrechen:
- Kontinuität
- absoluten Fokus
- keine Pausen
- internationales Denken
- Marketing aus eigener Hand
Zur Kontinuität beschreibt er eine schöne Lektion (nur für den Leser), wie sein Vater ihn und seinen Bruder ca. 1 Jahr lang gezwungen hat eine...

joanne hattersley: Will
Authored by Will Smith and Mark Manson.
The simplest way I can describe this book is inspiring. We all know Will Smith, whether it be through Fresh Prince, Men in Black or the plethora of work that he has done through the years. Will is a global force, well recognised and most people would say ‘a funny man’. Who is the man behind that mask? Reading this book makes you understand that it is just that…. A mask. But why? A man who seemingly has everything? Why pretend to be someone you’re not?
Reading this book answered every question & then some. Without giving (or trying to give) too much away, Will was a fearful child. There were tense moments at home which compounded his fearfulness. He was a child that liked to give, liked to make sure everyone was happy. There was a need to be approved, for people to like him. If they liked him, then he must be ok…..right? Even as a young child, he was grafting a persona, one that he hoped everyone would love. Love the persona he created…..love him. Right?
This memoir is transformative and triumphant, in that Will Smith felt life was perfect. Rapper, film star, family man, success, top of his game....
