Will Smith – “Ridiculous, Sickening Work Ethic”
Posted by Michael Vacanti
Depending on when you grew up, you likely know Will Smith as one of the following:
Goofball
.
Rapper
.
Most likely, movie star
.
Maybe all three. Regardless, you cannot argue that his career has been wildly successful.
Something you probably don’t know about Will Smith:
The man is one of the hardest workers in the business. His overwhelmingly positive, free-thinking mindset has allowed him to accomplish the unimaginable.
A few gems from the 10 minute video below:
“Talent you have naturally. Skill is only developed through hours and hours and hours of beating on your craft … I’ve never really viewed myself as particularly talented. Where I excel is ridiculous, sickening work ethic.”
.
“Being realistic is the most commonly traveled road to mediocrity.”
.
“You got a dream? You gotta protect it. People can’t do something themselves, they wanna tell you [that] you can’t do it. You want something? Go get it. Period.”
