Will Smith Quotes on Mindset

Three years ago I had the experience of watching Will Smith being interviewed on a TV show.

You ever have those times when you think you know someone from watching their films, listening to their music or reading their books?

But then you see them quoted in interviews that just boggle your mind and make you wonder how that could be the same person whose work you enjoy and if truth be told, you question how this talented person ever became successful in the first place when they couldn’t string two coherent sentences together?

Three years ago I had that experience while watching Will Smith.

But instead of wondering how he ever became so successful, I was blown away by this man, his intense drive and the manner in which he passionately and unapologetically shared his personal philosophy toward life and his powerful mindset toward success.

I found myself wondering why his interviews weren’t mandatory viewing in school.

Rather than trying to describe how Will Smith’s quotes motivated and helped me focus on my Masters of the Mind interview series, I’ll simply quit typing and turn it over to this video collection ofย  Will Smith quotes and interviews about his mindset and philosophy on success.

“Being realistic is the most commonly traveled road to mediocrity.”

Will Smith quote from interview on CBS’ The Early Show

 

Remember to always be conscious of what you’re feeding your mind~

    What a great video. Will Smith is awesome! I remember watching him receive an award ( People’s Choice? Kid’s Choice? ) and he addressed the kids saying ( and I paraphrase ), “There are two things you need to do … run and read. Because when you’re running and you get tired, there’s a little voice in your head that will tell you to stop. You have to shut that voice up and keep going so you know that you can continue, even when you think you can’t. And read, because someone has already gone through whatever it is you’re going through and they’ve written about it. They’ll teach you how to overcome whatever challenge you’re facing!”

    Thanks for sharing this great video and for ending it with a perfect phrase, “Remember to always be conscious of what you’re feeding your mind!”

    Michael,
    This was a very enjoyable collection of Will Smith Wisdom. I love his attitude and his work ethic.

    The most powerful one for me was his comment that you don’t need a plan B because it only detracts from Plan A. A very powerful thought.

    Thank you for sharing this.

    I am a huge Will Smith fan. “Men In Black” was when I first started liking him as an actor. But what really put me on the Will Smith band wagon was when I heard him interviewed one time and he totally blew me away. A great visionary.

    Really powerful. I saw “The Fresh Prince” (Will Smith’s rapper name) back in the early 90′s. Very cool to see how far he’s come since those days. Seems like a really amazing person. Thanks for sharing this!

    Very motivational. The mindset blew me away. Will Smith is one of those actors that always seems to pick a script that will be successful.

    Michaelll!
    That was so nice to watch!
    It was also the first time that I heard Will Smith “talk” in English as we translate everything into Spanish…
