Resumen del Editor

One of the most dynamic and globally recognized entertainment forces of our time opens up fully about his life, in a brave and inspiring book that traces his learning curve to a place where outer success, inner happiness, and human connection are aligned. Along the way, Will tells the story in full of one of the most amazing rides through the worlds of music and film that anyone has ever had.

Will Smith’s transformation from a West Philadelphia kid to one of the biggest rap stars of his era, and then one of the biggest movie stars in Hollywood history, is an epic tale — but it’s only half the story.

Will Smith thought, with good reason, that he had won at life: Not only was his own success unparalleled, his whole family was at the pinnacle of the entertainment world. Only they didn't see it that way: They felt more like star performers in his circus, a seven-days-a-week job they hadn't signed up for. It turned out Will Smith's education wasn't nearly over.

This memoir is the product of a profound journey of self-knowledge, a reckoning with all that your will can get you and all that it can leave behind. Written with the help of Mark Manson, author of the multi-million-copy best seller The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck, Will is the story of how one person mastered his own emotions, written in a way that can help everyone else do the same. Few of us will know the pressure of performing on the world's biggest stages for the highest of stakes, but we can all understand that the fuel that works for one stage of our journey might have to be changed if we want to make it all the way home. The combination of genuine wisdom of universal value and a life story that is preposterously entertaining, even astonishing, puts Will the book, like its author, in a category by itself.

This audiobook includes a downloadable PDF of music credits.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Incredible

I have never reviewed a book before but I had to do one for this book. I love wills transparency I related so much to his childhood & how it shapes us so much in our decisions & relationships throughout our lives. Thank you Will for sharing.

So Many Lessons - Excellent Read

This guy is truly amazing, he paints a canvas filled with vulnerability and transparency. The book journeys through his tumultuous childhood, then it takes you on a musical ride filled with record breaking firsts. From there he finds love, self and success, he loses it all then finds it on a greater scale while losing sight of self…again.

He’s forced to revisit the light that was of his GiGi after accomplishing more than most even dream of as he realizes that fame does not equate to happiness. Will always knew that he was destined for greatness even when that very idea was unimaginable.

His courageous revelations of his deepest fears spoke to my soul. Will invites you into his life without the protection of cover knowing that judgement is imminent. The brilliance of his mind was captured beautifully in this book, it’s one of the best that I’ve ever read. There are so many lessons and takeaways, I am truly inspired.

4.5 stars

Overall I really enjoyed this book. I had been debating on getting it for awhile but once the Oscar’s happened I wanted to better understand what drove him. So I got it. Definitely saw lots of connections to things to what happened at the Oscar’s.
I also found lots of great wisdom and take away from the book. And being I grew up with Will in my life it was great to reminisce about the the cool things he did. I definitely cringed at some of his singing, but overall enjoyed having him narrate the book.
Definitely would recommend this book to others.

Proud of you Will

Well written. Amazing to have Will to read. Going to grab the Kindle and Hardcover as well. Keep motivating.

I binged Will in 3 days

I loved every second…
I was pleasantly surprised how real this is, I’m going to start round 2 just in case I’ve missed something.

Next Level Audio Love Book

I knew it was going to be solid, but Will Smith and Mark Manson crushed my expectations. The two authors are a dynamic duo and there was an exponential factor when pairing their genius’s together. Wow. Thank you. And to share your Ayahuasca experiences is a true blessing and demonstration of unparalleled leadership. Love. Love. Love.
Your open hearted, vulnerable sharing around your fathers passing absolutely melted me. And will serve as some encouragement for my fathers imminent passing. Thank you for going there. Thank you for this gift to our human family.

GOAT

Best memoir and audiobook I've ever listened to. I was genuinely surprised it is as spectacular as it is. The arc of the story is genius, the audio production is perfection, it's heart warming, heart breaking and hilarious. I haven't even seen many of Will Smith's movies. I am however, a sucker for a story about the complexity of the human condition. This book delivers.

Everything!!!

I cried. I cracked up laughing. I shook my head in disbelief. cried again.... Thank you Will Smith for sharing the highs , lows and everything in between. May we all get the courage to 'Jump'.

The Real Will

Equal parts comedic, thought provoking, gut wrenching and surprising, Will Smith’s memoir takes you on a roller coaster of emotions and like most great coasters you end up wanting more when you get to the end.

Will is a fantastic ride and you’ll be happy to finally meet the Real Will Smith.

amazing!

THIS WAS A PHENOMENAL READ! I need to circle back. too many gems to grasp in one listen.
