Will Smith’s talent has led to many accomplishments in the entertainment world and beyond. He often shares that conquering the mind is key to success. In Smith’s Amazon book description, he leaves us with these inspiring words.
“It’s easy to maneuver the material world once you have conquered your own mind. I believe that. Once you’ve learned the terrain of your own mind, every experience, every emotion, every circumstance, whether positive or negative, simply propels you forward, to greater growth and greater experience. That is true will. To move forward in spite of anything. And to move forward in a way that brings others with you, rather than leave them behind.”
