This guy, Chris Gardner is a very determined man. This
movie, The Pursuit of Happiness, is a very good movie. Today, I will present to
you about the few things that I learned from the movie, The Pursuit of
Happiness, directed by Gabriel Mugino.
Lesson number one, never give up. No matter how hard
life beats you, don't you ever give up. Get yourself up and carry on. It's very
normal for life to take us down, to put failure visible to us, to block our
path of hope. However, the most important thing is how we manage that failure
and continue our journey from there. Even though Chris failed so many times
that his wife left him, His landlords chased him away, his son and him had to
kill to stay in the slums for free every night. He never gave up. He just help
it right there. Hope for the best and continue to work hard.
Lesson number 2. Work
hard. If you have a less fortunate and rougher start than the others, work 10
times harder to achieve your dreams. We all know that not All of us have innate
wealth from our family, but we do have one thing which is the inborn ability of
perseverance to strive for our goals. Perseverance, persistence, these are the
two things we have inside ourselves. You know that? Don't you ever complain
about the situation that you are in right now. That won't result in any
changes. Instead, we should be like Chris. Get a grip, grit your teeth and go
through the pain, the sufferings and the agony. Yes, the process will be
extremely difficult and it will surely make you suffer until the point of
giving up. But remember, what's waiting for you is an inexplicable and
miraculous taste of success at the finishing line. Be humble and learn
everything you don't know. There are no shortcuts in... Life, do not try to
skip steps, do not ever be determined and work hard. Eventually, you will get where
you wanted to be. You will.
Lesson number 3, seize your
opportunities. Do not let go of great opportunities presented in front of you. Yes, it's true that most of us
are scared of initiating the first step. As an ancient Chinese saying goes, the
beginning of something is always difficult. So don't be afraid and take a leap
of faith. Once you step out of your comfort zone, great things await. Chris
initiated his conversation with Mr. Twisto because he wanted to work as a
stockbroker. This conversation is Chris's opportunity and he grabs it firmly.
What follows was the short but precious moment he would have with him in the
taxi. That is the opportunity and he didn't let go of it.
Lesson number 4. Be kind. Be nice to
others under any circumstances. I learned that An act of kindness is
significant and influential because it not only provides calmness to others but
it also helps ourselves too. Chris lent $5 to his boss when he needed it
although Chris may not have enough money for dinner later. However, that $5
have in a way contributed to him getting the job. The purpose of doing good
deeds is not to receive appreciation or gratitude. or to expect something in
return. No, but it is important to know that we do it because we are humans. Humans help each other. Humans care for each other. And if you are lucky enough, you
may be rewarded with something unexpected, like a thank you. So don't expect
anything. Just be good, be kind and be nice to each other.
Lesson number 5, Believe in yourself. Don't you ever let somebody tell you that you can't do something, not
even me. Quoted from one of the advice Chris gave to his son, For me, this is
so true. Nobody can decide the course of your life, nobody but you. This quote
is a wake up call for most of us. There is no limit for a person to do
something. You are what you believe you are. what you believe you can do Chris
believed himself that he can be a stockbroker he worked hard for it he became a
stockbroker in the end if someone ever doubted your dreams, your ambitions,
your goals just tell them you are temporary and I will achieve whatever I aim
for in a Will Smith voice doubts are temporary and they will be gone when you
achieve it you do it not because you want to impress somebody you do it Because
that's what makes you happy. And that, my friends, is pursuit of happiness.
Don't ever let somebody tell you, you can't do something. Not even me.
