I've been watching movies and TV shows from a long time and most of the time it is for fun and while watching movies and series it ends up with a new lesson.


My kind of favourite genre is thrillers, historical, sci-fi and crime based movies and shows. The last show I watched was shogun like a day ago and I rarely watch a movie but this last time I watched had a great lesson, movie is "The Pursuit of Happyness" and will smith is playing lead role.

I re-watched this movie for the second time and it's just that good to rewatch over again.


We're all in pursuit of Happiness

It's a fact that everyone of us in pursuit of happiness and everyone happiness has their own meaning, different or same like others.

One thing I can relate with the movie is "the struggles within the family" a man who isn't rich, but married and have a child.. hustling everyday to provide his family and also want to become a successful person.

There's different phases of life and it starts from the problems in life, it gets worse and you just know it can't get worse and you can try everything to change the situation.

Happiness doesn't come easy

Once you watch this movie you'll realize the cost of happiness is sacrifices, struggle and hard work but you need to make smart choices and be consistent.

Once you know what is that one thing you're good and confident at like will smith was "Good at numbers" he knew brokerage firm was the only way to turn around life as it pays off heavily but that job doesn't come easy.

The challenges we've to face in life is countless, one after another like his wife left, lost life savings by investing in a product that's no longer in need of any use, you're homeless and have a child to take care.

You just don't let go one thing you're good at

I believe we get a sort of feeling that tells us I can do this one thing better than these other people and I need to get it done no matter how long it takes and how difficult it is to get it.

Most of us let go one thing we're good at and start to work on something else like in times of hardship you have no choice other than doing other job and completely abandoning one you were aiming for.

Once you watch this movie you'll realize the effect of consistently chasing one thing you believe is meant for you.. eventually you're going to get it but it also needs good intentions.

One Good Act of kindness

One good act of kindness could be enough to change your life like having right intentions and lending your last $5 to someone else in need.

And it landed him a job because of that act have it's impact. People don't forget good intentions and things you do for them.

You can become frustrated, angry and depressed because nothing is working well for you but the intention remains the same.

With patience and consistent hard work everything becomes better in life and this movie is a prime example of it.


Wrapping Up...

In the end if you're looking for some motivation and haven't watched pursuit of happiness, you should give it a try this weekend.

It's one of my most favourite movies and greatest one in the cinema full of lessons and also it's based on reality so everything portrayed in this movie will make sense.

I love this movie so much that I kept watching it until I have to lock it in my phone so that I don't get tired of it because I don't want to, LoL.

There are so many messages in the movie and yeah happiness is an expensive commodity, funny enough neither money or poverty alone can bring it. A lot has to be put in place, one must be ready to make a lot of sacrifices

I remember seeing this movie when It was released. It's an interesting one. It was a pity what Smith had to go through, but from his and his family life, there were lessons to be learned.

The movie title alone tells a little of what it's about. It's one film I think everyone should see
