how to be Will Smith

Updated: Aug 8, 2019




Willard Carroll Smith II commonly known as Will Smith, the American actor; rapper and media personality is a role model to many, including me. His sense of being and success is to die for and it’s why everybody wishes to be him. Well, here a five ways you can try to be the fresh prince :


Master your art

“I don’t consider myself talented, just slightly above average’’; with him to climb to that incredible pedestal of excellence in his career, he had to work on it. His excellence and consistency lie in work ethics and hardworking, putting extra hours to perfect his craft.

In his first six episodes as Fresh Prince, he would grasp even the whole dialogue of the script to flow the conversation on set.


Make money; don’t let the money make you

With him having three successful careers on the bag, Grammy-winning music career; comedy shows and one of the best Hollywood’s actors. The technique he used to divide himself and balance these occupations reflected authentic obsession and focus. It was never about the money, and it should never be.to be able to juggle around life activities. one must pay attention to the gab, there is a difference between starting a business venture to make money and merely monetizing your hobby


Initially, when you living off your interest nothing is draining. When you working as a CA, you paid for monitoring financial transaction; doing spending and earning reports as you were doing at a younger age with monthly groceries slips at home, you won’t need much energy to channel Your focus because it’s in your average scale of working; nothing new. That is why we have people who can plug headphones; sing along and dance but still get the duty perfectly done.

Find your joy



‘’Living in service to is the purest form of joy’’. To have a family to support; fans to sing to and humanitarian activity, lands you in a position where your life is more meaningful to somebody than you. It is one of the situations that also help you find purpose in life.

to have your family; your community or the world smiling because of you is the best feeling ever. To bring joy in people around you, bring joy to you and that energy will instantly spread across


You can serve humanity in different ways, spiritually, physically or physiologically, anyhow; just find the kind that will excite you.

Don’t forget home


Will also stressed the importance of not disconnecting with your home, not necessarily a physical home but where you get a chance to be at ease and rearrange yourself.

After winning at the American Music Award in 1988 with his business partner Jeff they flee home for the celebration, waited at the airport by the press and fans with pictures and hype.

When they got home, Jeff’s mom ordered them to buy bread and soda with $5 around the corner like the old days when there still were young. The award-winning star queuing for a loaf of bread at the corner store. He talked about how did that grounded his pride and taught him to never lose his sense of being.

At your peak, don’t forget to breath

With so much accomplishment in his lifetime; millions of streams on Box office and being labelled the most powerful actor in Hollywood by Newsweek in April 2007. Will still understand how success taken to the heard ruins a person . ‘’any time you inject the extreme into the universe, you can expect the extreme to come back’’. So he tries to keep it low key and work on breathing on top of the mountain where there is less oxygen for an ordinary man to survive.

With all this success he still finds a way to be a family man and an ordinary civilian of the society
