A 53 year old person having both their mom and dad alive is a Big blessing.
Yes it is
His father is dead..
@Daariyus that escalated quickly
I know, I'm only seventeen but my parents are in their mid forties and have heath issues. I know it's too early, but I am already scared of the future of losing them at an earlier age than I'd want.
@@purpleesc they may lose their physical form. but they'll never truly leave you. Their memory keeps them alive. Honor them whilst they're still here. All the best to you and your family!
"Daddio was one of the greatest blessings of my life and also one of my greatest sources of pain..." That hits so hard when you can relate to it
That broke my heart rememebring my father who sadly died due to drinking issues.
"Because I don't want to." Is the most authentic, honest answer to protect your peace and build boundaries. To have to tackle with that and to try to please others is determinatal to one's mental state. I applaud Will for being a self vessel of himself.
Well said
Learning to say no is transformative when you know in your gut it's the right call.
"Because I don't want to", is what a child would say. I appreciate you might have been drained & simply having a tough day or moment & saying so, is sufficient - something along the lines of; 'Sorry man, this isn't a good time /moment' is proper & kind.
Having a bad day/ time is no excuse to cause someone else a bad day/moment.
@@deqadirir1407 This comment makes no sense. A stranger walked up to him and shoved a camera in his face as if he wasn’t human. “I don’t want to” is an honest and sufficient answer. Celebrities don’t owe people pictures.
Actually, it is the most selfish answer. I should know, I hear it from 5 year olds all the time. Wake up and smell the roses. Go Trump
Will became his father in that moment. It just shows how childhood trauma can effect adult behaviour. Will needs healing 💔
😔💯
Please will you will end up feeling fabulous 👌
This is his process and discovery. He worked through it. He made amends with his dad before he passed.
He did Wild Wild West. Just think about that for a moment.
The hardest war is to fight with ourselves 😞
100% agree with that statement.
Facts
Jesus loves you❤️
John 3:16-For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
We are our own worst enemy.

My God, this series really dives deep into Will's humanity. The part about his mom, when he was reading the chapter, had me crying. It's incredible how children internalize and deal with trauma. Mind blowing.
Lol ruclips.net/video/NcecKa0kn9M/видео.html nobody believes 😂
I know. 😢
Will smitch died today -https: //ruclips.net/video/9A47UwIAlCI/видео.html
"I hated that someone else, an innocent, got caught in the cross-fire of my internal war" I felt this. This right here is so powerful.
Perfectly resonates with me 🙌🏼
IT MADE ME CRY AS WELL , THAT'S THE MR. SMITH I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED AND CARED TO PAY ATTENTION TO ....I FELT IT REAL HARD . HE HAS TO FIND HIS MIDDLE GROUND... AND SOMETIMES NO IS THE ONLY ANSWER. MANY BLESSINGS WILL.🙏🏾😇🙏🏾c
GROWTH!
Yes it was powerful BUT TO YOUR OWN SELF BE. TRUE
Same
when he read his narrative it had my heart in tears, I too went through a lot of trauma, I am a product of rape, my step-father hung himself when I was 4 and I was sexually abused from 6 to 13. As a male in this world with the weight of trauma on my shoulders I had 2 options, go into the streets which my siblings did or do something with my life. I am now the CEO of a charity supporting vulnerable children, individuals and the elderly. I practice with pride, love and support to my clients - life couldn't be better. I am blessed
@akuapiatas I don’t know you but I am so happy and so proud of the direction and purpose you chose for your life. YOU ARE AMAZING!💕🙏🏾💋
if thats true then why are you telling a youtube comment section?
got damn i would say you went through most then alot of people. it amazing you still standing 👏
Damn Will...
I don't know if you'll ever read this but I just wanted to express that watching this series has been transformational for me.
I see a lot of myself in you, and I can relate in more ways than I like to admit.
Creating the persona that everyone enjoys and looks up to, and at the same time having a deeper, unprocessed side of my personality and psyche that I'm still reconciling.
I simply wanted to say thank you for creating this, and for having the courage to be an example of next-level authenticity.
I don't believe I, or you, were inauthentic before, but the introduction of this spectrum of yourself brings it to a whole other level.
I'm eager to continue to watch this series, and hope that one day I can thank you to your face for all the inspiration you've granted me since I was 7-8 years old.
I even refer to myself as the Fresh Prince of Spirituality, because I bring so much fun and flavor to the often overly-serious ways of spiritual growth and mastery.
Thank you for being all that you are, and for having "the will" to be Will to the absolute fullest.
God bless.
you get the "WILL" book yet?
will smith climbed the high tower what happened next ... ruclips.net/video/j2xatWvpxLs/видео.html
Agree… this show has given me so much to contemplate about myself. Can’t wait to finish my current book so i can jump into his book
Gayyyyy
@@HarryH89 I guess you are gay too so you know?
This is the best fitness journey documentary ever filmed IMO. It exemplifies, "It's not what you're eating but what's eating you." Will, so proud of you my brutha!
That part!
Amen !
Beautifully said!!!!
Wow, that’s a brilliant line! #stealingit
This hit me in my core!!!
I’m so sad to hear that your mom suffered from domestic abuse and I can’t imagine the toll it took on you and your siblings. Your mom is so beautiful.
Ujnhjbi jnbnfigh hmm🎉👳🧕🍁🥳😂😤🤣😤😃😭👬💥😍
“He’s giving himself space to process and deal with his past “👏🏽👏🏽
What the heazy are your blabbing about! How can he be giving himself space, when he's posting this junk all over RUclips! Its a ploy....stop wiping your eyes with the same tissue you use to wipe your butt! Vote Trump and lets fix this foolishness together
@@Chris-km3ck oh boy 🤦🏾♂️
@@Ananse15 I'm glad you agree with me...at least someone has some sense
@@Chris-km3ck Actually I don’t agree with you.
@@Ananse15 😂 lol
My dad was a drunk, 6 year old me jumped on my dads back as he was strangling my mum, in my mind I was hoping I could maybe pull him off her. My 3 sisters (all older than me) ran to the neighbours homes to try and get someone bigger/stronger to help us save our mums life. This episode really hit home for me, I always felt it was my duty to protect my mum from my dad.
Sorry you had to experience those thing’s.
@@minnieshadesofbeautyllc5395 thank you, it was a long time ago and I felt like I had dealt with it all, but this episode brought those memories and feelings right to the surface. If it's any consolation, my mums happier now with her new partner.
@@MoreTickle I had a similar experience too. We blamed a lot on ourselves as little children. We could only interpret it that way to get control of it at that time. Now we are older we can see and understand better. I'm sending you love, healing and light. You'll win!
Wow, May God continue to bless and heal us all of childhood/adult trauma and heal our spiritual wounds in Jesus name!
And you may have dealt with it in the past and you may have dealt with it in the right way ( there is probably no right way and what right for you may not be right for someone else) but what I am trying to say is that you may have been able to heal in some ways but there is always going to be something that is going to bring up those past traumas that make you empathetic towards others and that makes you a strong person. It’s not easy to forgive those who have hurt us or those that have hurt the people we love especially people who we also love but I know from experience that it makes your life a hell of a lot better for you when you do. I wish everyone the best of luck with everything and all the love and happiness in the world.
This series is incredibly therapeutic
ruclips.net/video/iabc3GoXK2o/видео.html😃
Indeed it is...🥲
Absolutely
In that order...
Yea it’s fine 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
When he said, "Daddio was the greatest blessings of my life, but the greatest source of my pain." I felt that and genuinely related about my father.
Same
Mine too
Will Smith is still people's pleaser, entertainer. His character/personality shows he always wants to please his wife, his children, his mother, father and people around him. He thinks himself as failure for the women in his life. But the fact is he is not the failure. He is the reason of everybody's success, happiness and peace. He is a very good hearted man, A wise, humble man, a great father, a great son, a great husband, a talented artist, a leader, a legend, everything I possibly think of. God bless him🙏💖💐
All true/great comment
Perfectly said 💯 👏 👌 I Totally agree 💯
Yeah true. But it's high time he has a backbone instead of just smiling along a woman who is embarrassing him.
@@ellg3441 You're right but I think Will was just in shock of what his wife said and did (i'm only assuming here). He maintained himself because if he let his emotions go, he would've been out of control and you see from this video, Will doesnt like losing control of his emotions. But I bet he has had some real conversations behind closed doors and off the camera with his wife where those conversations really should be had.
It was clearly his Father that made him feel fearful and like a failure. The woman tried to show him that wasn’t the case. To this day his Mom still says so, and also that she didn’t realize he felt this so deeply. And She left his Father to put distance between then so they, the kids, would not continue to see that of their marriage. She made a move of courage and change.
Even when he's not ok, he's smiling. Will has a permanent smile "I'm ok face". I'm glad he is finally telling people NO!
I'm not near a celeb, but I had to learn that telling people NO is ok...and you really don't owe them a reason. LOVING THIS EPISODE! And I got my book on Tuesday for the pics only. I'll be downloading the audible this weekend😊
Depends he saying NO the guy in the gym for wanting a video for his cousin was bad , people waits for a moment like that for years !!! This can hurt people for life . Now if will didn’t want to be bothered chiding to train at home away from everybody should have been a option .
You would have a permanent smile too if you were worth $400,000,000. Those last 3 zeros make all the pain just disappear
He has confidence optimism motivation inside of him since childhood. Also god given high energy all the time, he said in the book he never gets sick. Plus steady positive thinking habits equals he always smiles.
I love how Will takes this Journey called Life extremely seriously he wants to understand and explore all crevices of it.

I legit cried and broke down when he shared the I'm sorry mom piece, cuz I relate to that so much. I had to pause the episode and sit there to cry and visualize, remember the pain and feeling he had of feeling powerless to protect my mom and just to make things seem happier for her. I did not expect that, I was already inspired by Will's Channel and this series; but that break through... hit me so deep. I wasn't ready. But thank you, Will.
-Many Blessing and keep doing you.
Big willy
Hello I'm wanting to reach out to you. I feel that you are basically a good human being. I also think you are not defined by one moment on a Hollywood stage. Whatever you are facing I hope you come through it with more accountability, grace and patience with yourself. I will not forget that when Flint MI needed help you showed support. We were given some compassion. I offer you compassion in this season. Take care of your WHOLE self .Just sending love across the miles.
I’m not a big reader, but I will be buying Will’s book and reading it. I can’t wait to learn more about the moments and stories of his life.
Already read it, I read vigorously and let me tell it’s the most real book I think I’ve ever read.
If you don't like reading, I recommend the audible version. It's so great!
@@joshuawilliams6866 I look up to Will as a person so hearing that makes me more excited thanks
@@lilgrl11215 is it Will voice reading in the audible version?
@@desmondharris3678 it is!
Will's own war with himself makes me feel a lot less abnormal with my own war with myself. Thank you for your vulnerability.
we all wage war on ourselves, every one of us 😞
Exactly
This is what I felt ❤️
All people have inner issues.
FOSHO!
He has encouraged me to start writing again. I know that pain of the past. Sending Blessings to Wil always.
He has encouraged me to start reading again. I'm getting this book!
So powerful. Will quitting and listening to his soul, his true self, was the victory
Big up Will for giving us this series and sharing his life with us. The man is a legend from his movies to his music
I mean, he did a movie called I am Legend so that was a give away :)
Music?

@@fireluvr you don't know his rap history? Really?
I understand that that duality: To love your Dad but hate him because of how he abused your Mom, to see her completely being harmed. For me it was a shock and I passed out. In the movies, the monster is always the monster even though it may be disguised but in real life you NEED your Dad to protect you and YOU NEED your Mom to be loved and protected. It's an eternal ache and a memory that never goes away. This upload helps me to understand what it might have been like for my older brother, Tony. He chose the strength of Dad over the pain of Mom. It was his way of survival. I chose both of my parents but at a DISTANCE. I have written 7 books but NEVER had the strength to tell this story. God bless and keep you Will. God bless you and your Mom and your family and friends - I hope your book goes to the NYT best sellers list for real and legitimately. Selah.
May I ask what type of books you write yourself?
Being a child of domestic violence caused serious damage to my oldest son. He tried to pull his dad away from beating me at age 5 and was thrown across the room. He later grew up to be angry and violent always drinking and fighting ending up in prison. It has broken my ❤️ heart seeing him like this.
Note.. Wil is so lucky to be able to deal with it peacefully and non violently. 🕊️
He did what he was taught since no one taught or showed him how to deal with his emotions in a healthy way. The brain of a child is not built to grow up with violence and such trauma. I hope your son can get help and find some inner peace💛
Sending out Healing Prayers🙏
I cried my eyes out. That's why I left my physically abusive husband when my child was 4 months old. Even that wasn't soon enough. I went through hell fleeing this man for 6 years. But my child never knew about that hell. That hell is worth never having your child witness abuse. It is eternally disruptive to their psyche and soul. It's a wound that must be forever attended to, and addressed until healed- if it ever heals. I had to get out if not for myself, but for my child! My child told me that she never knew what happened until she sought out information about it as an adult from me, my siblings and friends. She never knew. If you are in an emotionally or physically abusive relationship, PLEASE, PLEASE GET OUT! Do whatever you must to GET OUT! Do it for yourself. Do it for your Children!
I’m pretty sure you were just as abusive as him, verbally and or mentally abusive
I did. And i am soo glad. For my girls.💗💗🙏🏿 God bless you give me hope things will be fine someday.
@@vinniebux007 Would you say that to Will’s mom??

Jeepers you are going overboard here. That man is an actor and nothing else. No legend and no inspiration. His whole family is nuts!!
He’s not a boss, he’s controlled by a women who doesn’t want him
Will’s mother and I went to the same beautician for a few years and although we talked, she did seem a little quiet and reserved and never mentioned who her “famous” son was to me anyway. I just thought that she was tired as we both were rushing there from work. But, now, I understand. She was an abused woman who had raised four children through all of that madness. And she was just trying to make it to retirement while looking over her shoulder to be sure that the boogie man wasn’t around. God bless her for her strength.
The men of her generation have térrorīzèd many and negatively affected the current generations

Hopefully the beautician did a better job with you then Will's mom
Shed a few tears watching this episode. Truly moving. The things about his momma hurts just listening to it.
This series makes me want to confront my demons and face my fears. I'm not even sure where to start, but seeing your transformation, helped me to realize I need to create a transformation of my own. *Lump in my throat* Thank you.
Start with forgiveness and go from there.
There is a creative therapy I’ve done with groups and it involves writing to the source(s) of pain-be it a person, circumstance or situation. Free write and just release eeeeveeything you’ve keep locked away. It’s private, personal and only for you, unless you choose to write to a person and share it, which can also be helpful, depending on the situation. After you write and internally process what you wrote, feel free to destroy the paper, if you want. Sometimes we want to talk but it’s hard to trust others with what we share. Paper can’t hurt us if no one else see it. Just a suggestion. I hope it helps and either way, you’re able to put your demons in their place. Trust me, I get it. God bless, sis. 🙏🏽
@Kim Louise - Start from within. That's where you begin. Confronting your hurts/past will be your transformative result at the end. Place your Faith in God - With God you can surely win.
@@arreola891 Thank you.
@@tiyaht2158 I appreciate this information.
When your childhood iconic hero teaches how get over feeling like a coward, after experiencing trauma that was probably out of your control in the first place...
This is the best thing on YT, as a matter of fact, online period right now...
you know, I agree he went through a lot when he was a kid, but it's been so long since then.. maybe, just maybe, the ambience where he is right now is just a little sick.
Will Smith never stops inspiring us. He’s a living legend
I know it's crazy right, and then we got Jada pinkett smith over here trying to tarnish this man's legacy every time she speaks about him it's ridiculous
💯
@2:27 “I hated that someone else, an innocent, had gotten caught in the crossfire of my internal war.” That brought tears to my eyes. It happens when an empath tries to set boundaries within self. As someone going through it right now, from one E to another. Thanks for the project, Will.
💔😥🙏💕
This was so dope! I loved the part where Will starts stuttering like a seven year old kid when he has to talk deep issues sitting next to his mom. I totally get it. Congratulations. Next level and Manhood.
Hi Coach 👋 I hope my comment didn't sound as a form of privacy invasion your comment tells of a wonderful woman with a beautiful heart which led me to comment I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserve this complement. If you don’t mind can we be friends? Thanks God bless you….
You know that iconic episode on the Fresh Prince series where he cried about his dad not wanting him? I think dude may have been channeling all the pain and resentment he had towards his real dad and the result was/is a genuine masterpiece. You can sense the pain and emotion in that little scene, and most of us can truly relate to it one way or the other. I hope we all break the cycles of the vices our parents and their parents had.
It's too painful
I don't think he resents his father though.
@@bootyshake5043 I don't think so too, but sometimes we have repressed feelings that may manifest in certain ways and remember, this was years ago when he was still young. Even if he had forgiven his dad, that scene can make someone in that position relive the pain and trauma, even if it's just a little.
@@bootyshake5043 Will Smith did resent his father for abusing his mom.
@@tgoodman757 Yes. I think he resents those actions and moments that include his father, however, I doubt he resents the other moments with his dad. It is evident that some of those lessons and values fabricate Will to be the man he is today.
This show is so addicting--I love how honest and transparent he's being with his emotions and what he wants.
ruclips.net/video/iabc3GoXK2o/видео.html😃
@@sateen663 really? why? And he really is.
Will, your life is like a parable. I listened to your audiobook and you’re an amazing storyteller. It’s very brave to see yourself as the light in the room. You were such a brave little boy to ordain yourself as the cheer and the relief and joy of your family during dark times. You were so brave for loving and forgiving Daddio. You were so brave when you pursued your dreams even harder after you made expensive mistakes. And now you are so brave to bare your heart and show unprecedented vulnerability. Crazy, but one of your greatest fears turned out to be your motivation to be your bravest self. Your life is very inspiring and I’m so grateful that you gave us this piece of you.
Listening to this on Audible. My jaw dropped. Extraordinary. Relatable. Will’s story is our story. “Discipline” in black households… brutal, brutal, brutal.
True, but also a generational thing in so many of our households that grew up with WWII, Korea & Vietnam parents
This very true! As a black army family. I always felt like we was the only one. The remember of fighting, drinking, and unacceptable bavhavior.
Man I just finished the first 4 episodes and seconds later this drops! What a day! Loving this series.
Same! Just finished the last one like 20 min ago. I didn’t even know about this show until this morning.
Me too!!
Same.
I watch them so quick and find myself looking like.. is it really over? I wonder how many episodes there will be.
You can get 3 audiobooks with a 30 day trial of Audible, for anyone who isn't a big reader. Will narrates the book as well.

Will there are pple that will love U no matter what. I love that U also make bad decisions 🤗just like me. Ur perfect to me.
I am glad he is healing mentally, spiritually, and physically.
Will is deep...He was one of 'those' kids...deeper than the adults in the room. Wider than the ocean at a young age. Life is hard for these kids. Their minds are expansive.
Willow is one also
😩😭
This is why I have loved Will since my childhood. although all these social outlets did not exist to see his vulnerability, passion, humanness and brilliance I could feel it was there..even as a child I knew there something very special about Will.
This is highly therapeutic Will , thank you so much- thank you
Vulnerability? Using your excessive wealth to hire a team of professional to make an over produced puff piece that casts you in a positive light where the rich eccentric has full creative control and distribution rights and can cancel the project at any time is vulnerability? Okay…
You know how much will loves his mom just by the way he says “my mom” with that accent like a little kid
The chapter on intimate partner violence flooded me with emotions and bought me back to my childhood. The scars of IPV has left me as well in an internal war. I so appreciate thisi
Will is showing us to stop ignoring our red flags and accept the true greatness of our life's journey which lay in our authenticity.

Someone once typed, "Red flags can look like Six Flags when you're having fun."
#ihadtosharethat
He authentically acted like a damn fool at the Oscar's
Yea, that did not age well
This documentary has touched a certain emotion in me this evening. Some past issues of mine are coming to mind. It’s even a little difficult to type this right now but, I have to because I need this as an temporary outlet. I just want to say, “Thank you, Will. Thank you for sharing.” You probably read hundred and thousands of comments all the time. I’m not looking for a response. For what it’s worth, I just want to say to you, “Thank you. Thank you for having me take another look at myself, if that makes sense.”
❤❤❤❤❤
Most insightful thing he’s said in this entire show series so far is that filming the thing is getting in the way of doing the thing.
This is fantastic Will. I ordered your book a couple of days ago and RUclips suggested one of these videos to me. I can't stop watching them. You would have never reached me as a person with the glamorous parts of your life. But you reached me with what you said at the Oprah conversation, then with what I could read in your book so far and now with the authenticity in those videos. You reach me and you help me, finding a way through my own problems. Thank you.
I hope the view count don’t give you the wrong impression. Should be millions. This series is stunning. Thanks will!
Doesn’t mean everyone wants to watch it
Will is over fame and stupid view numbers. That's all just EGO.
@@hsvr they should tho. This is a very insightful project.
A view of a man worth millions trying to do what regular people struggle to do in their own lives
The pain is readable through his eyes. Hope that he’ll heal.
ruclips.net/video/NwgkqCC7-vI/видео.html
After watching this I COMPLETELY understand why Will stood up walked on that stage & punched Chris Rock in the face. That was that 9 year old boy, FINALLY standing up to someone who he felt hurt someone he loved (though unintentional on Chris’ part). Although Will could have stood up differently, what he did was a defining moment in the trauma that he has endured. That punch, heard & felt across the globe, was 40 years in the making🥺.
I was so dissapointed when I saw it, but I get it Will. I still love you❤️❤️❤️❤️
Exactly !
This was me but I continue to live it every day. Mr. Smith I watched you all of my youth but I never knew that I was also watching myself too. I'm 50yrs old and this morning I cried like a baby after watching this. I have to conquer this just as you before it conquers me. Thank you for these gifts and your talents. They kept me.
Good luck to you….conquer your demons…you are not alone…Be Well!
Will making me cry with the story of his mom. You’ve done right by her there’s no doubt about that. It’s crazy how as kids and even sometimes as adults how we take the blame for things we had no control over. Losing my mom last year was one of the most jarring things to happen in my life, I miss her everyday.
Always remember. There are two sides to a story. Children often grow up sympathising with their mother as they have the benefit of spending most time with the children. And then they grow up and learn the true details and learn why the father behaved they way he did. Doesnt always appear as it seems.
@@kalimd8393 beating a woman is beating a woman, there’s no other side to that bro.
I love this! Not Will the actor but Will the man saying they will take what we give them. He's not relinquishing any control to or for the show. He's on a journey, you are making a show. Very powerful... Being your own narrator no matter what that may feel like to others.
I'm a mother of son's, they both have there own business, and what hurts is when I see them putting themselves last and lying about what they really want to please everyone, and it feels normal, until I see the pain of deceving themselves comes out .
Thankyou for your raw honesty and words of relief to not feel alone.
Love Australia

Hugs
Thank you Will for being a voice to many of us who can relate to what you’ve gone through. I have always want to voice my experiences and explain what a child goes through in a household with physical violence, because it carries on in a person’s life even after they are grown. I learned to heal myself through journaling and forgiveness. I chose to be a light from my darkness. I’m glad you chose to be a light as well, especially from a male perspective, because you could have repeated the dysfunction.
Really enjoying the book on Audible and really appreciate that Will is the Narrator. I really relate to how he thought he could strategically manage a safe space. Bless your mama!
I’m beginning to feel the title “best shape of my life” is more to do with his mental state and less he’s physical, and it’s really interesting to see how at 53 he is still learning
You never stop learning...that's the point. At any age...you can still learn.
This is more than amazing! We all need to find a way to do what Will has done. I'm proud of him! Much respect to Will Smith! And also for him sharing!
Good for you Will Smith. Always be true to yourself. Your light and life are reflecting on many. God bless you.
The story about his mom is heartbreaking.
That's very shocking.
No wonder it was unscripted in The Fresh Prince
And common. 😢
@@lexkanyima2195 no it wasn't
I was abused just like his mother. Thanks Will for your story and thank you for not doing the same
I think Will accepting the fact he’s human was the biggest dub he’s taken in his life.
My father was the same...my mother was similar. They didn't get along. And, I believed I could keep my parent's together. They divorced when I went to college- purposefully, when i left. Somehow they knew how much I wanted to fix them. But, i didn't know this. Nobody talked to me at college- just a call, "hey we're divorced". Such a lovely collaboration of people working together on a real project.
All men need to do this at some point in their lives....women too but def men....process and deal with ur past....because it can def cause turmoil to leave those chapters uncharted... Ur fans stand with u Will...we are HERE...🙏🏾💗

Inspiring, this documentary is something we're all are going thru. Not just Will. Thanks for sharing your experience with us Will. We're all trying to do the same thing.
will smith climbed the high tower what happened next ... ruclips.net/video/j2xatWvpxLs/видео.html
For real...
Growing up in Europe this Man gave me and a bunch of my fellow black friends & brothers a figure to look up to other than what we were used to with our fathers (don’t misunderstand me my father went to university and had a great job) in a time when being black was the opposite of cool!
Seeing him still being relevant today is really something!
Thank you Will.
Totally feel the clarity of your post. It’s a different kind of role model. Old school doesn’t necessarily translate to new methodologies.

This explains so much.
Just an incredible human Will Smith is. I feel that I have learned new things about myself at 22 years old in only a 20 minute episode. This should provoke everyone to dig deep and reflect on their past, and how it has made them who they are today
So in 20 minutes you learned all there is to know about yourself? Sounds about right. You are exactly what's wrong with this generation. Quit looking for answers from fake, plastic faced, artificial, mind slave celebs and realize that you are the answer. Wake up son
" Because I don't want to." Thats a fantastic reason. respect my boundaries.
Yes Ma'am!
people forget "celebrities" are human, people just like us, no better or worse. They deserve just as much privacy and respect as the rest of us. Just because their "products" are public, no one is entitled to their private lives unless THEY CHOOSE to talk about it NOT THEM(as in the public not you you) THINKING THEY'RE ENTITLED TO INVADE IT
I said, Amen when I heard that. He’s allowed.
This is far and away his greatest contribution to our culture. Keeping people, giving men permission explorer who they are and face the Demons of they have inside of them. I know for sure this is going to change lives. What a gift from him.
Well, watching this episode gives me wider perspective on what happened during Oscars. Do You guys think/feel similar?
Can you explain
It’s like being on a therapy myself when I watch this series ! He is just amazing human being !! ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼thank You for sharing all this with us !!
If you think that's therapy, you should see how you feel after my therapy....my massage therapy. I like your style. Now vote for Trump and let's fix this foolishness together. We are stronger together
Will: “I’m gonna put some regular clothes on”
Also Will: wears a jacket with underwear
haha yep he put on UK pants not US ones.
Me 🙋🏾♀️
Will smitch died today -https: //ruclips.net/video/9A47UwIAlCI/видео.html
Exactly. That dude loves wearing his briefs in front of people. And the camera angles weren't helping either. Lol
Congrats to RUclips Originals for landing such a great series. This is an HBO quality series, and the decision to release one episode a day rather than weekly was a stroke of genius.
I think before that man put the camera in Will’s face he could have asked. Celebrities have the right to say no. Great series Will! I’ll be sure if I ever see you I’ll ask to take a photo first.
I am currently crying with every episode. Thank you for this, I appreciate it so much. Thank you for the inspiration thank you.
Will: "THEY'LL GET WHAT WE GIVE THEM."
His fans: "Sold!"
❤❤❤🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
This series is helping me reflect on so much of who I present myself to be. Thank you for this!
The similarities between you and my brother are uncanny. I feel like I was watching him watching this. Your mannerisms, the things that come out of your mouth. The challenges that we, and more so he's faced, being the firstborn with our mother. This makes me want to go give my brother a hug. Although I'm unsure if I should, he receives but you can tell he is numb. 🙏 Praying for a spiritual transformation that will make you feel whole and gives you purpose Will.
❤
I’m struggling that way with my sisters. They took the ugly “fight” path, while I am the people pleaser. I want to reach out to them with so much love, but also don’t know how it will be received. I would say to you even if your brother is numb, that love will touch him and help him though, so hug him while you can. I don’t think anyone has ever regretted showing love. I can’t get close to my sisters and it breaks my heart. All I can do is pray for them.
@@nmg6248 you should get close to them and just go for it! What if your sisters are waiting for you, waiting for you to acknowledge them, waiting for you to help them heal because you might be the missing piece in their life. You will never regret doing the kind, the loving, the forgiving thing.
Thank you for sharing your story and mental health so openly in this episode. It’s inspiring and motivating. It helps to show me and others that this experience with depression… we are not as alone as we think in fighting this thing🧠💪🏾✌🏾❤️
Right I think a lot of people went thur this as a kid or adult we must be honest with one another bout it
@Depression Talks - Depression is so real. It's sad and disappointing that people can't understand how it makes us feel. If they could read the cards we were dealt, then maybe they could deal with what we feel.
cringe
As someone who also had a physically/emotionally abusive father, I cried my eyes out at the story of seeing his father hit his mother and feeling helpless and like a coward because you are a child and cant do anything; paralyzed by terror. Still haunts me to this day and I feel so similar to how he describes all the emotions that this instance brought forth in him. Legendary is the only word I can think of to describe this storytelling.

Watching his personal struggles and realizations is also cathartic for those watching. I can feel the pain and growth happening and am trying to apply it to my life as well. Thanks for being so vulnerable and brave to embark on a journey like this. Peace!
Amen ♥️peace and light to you.
Like many families back in the day, Women were ruled over with a fist ,perhaps little will didn't know this,little Will,I feel you,it happened at my house as well,An in some way it shaped us as well.But we all got thru it.God bless you Will on your journey.
What pain? Dude is worth $400,000,000. He stopped feeling pain about 3 zeros ago. Wake up and stop buying his Black Lives Matters junk. Vote Trump and let's end this foolishness together
@@deborahhardaway8919 don't mention God if you don't read the holy scriptures.. God knows and see's lust, greed and self entitlement
@@Chris-km3ck agree these people worshiping Demi's but because they want to be in those foot steps say no to devilish and wicked ways
Thank you Will. REALLY.
"I asked myself, 'if you could snap your fingers and have any life you wanted what would it look like?'
That question led me into a area of my inner world that had danger signs all over it. The answer would have to be extracted from the murky, swampy, shadow regions of my psyche. What if I ripped down all the boards and barriers and barricades and whatever demon is in there takes over? What if I can't put it back? What if I like it being out?
But I approached the dark place. I wanted to see what was in there. What are Will's feelings, Will's opinions, Will's needs, Will's ideas? Who are you really? "
I heard this and I didn't even realized that I was in tears and trembling.
Thanks for sharing this Will. Thank you very much. I need to get your book ASAP.
❤❤❤❤❤
Man, he may not have met his weight loss goal, but he looks in waaaaay better shape already!
I thought the same thing! I was like his body is changing!! how is he not losing the lbs? is he gaining muscle ? im still not understanding
When you put on muscle the scale might not go down . But your definitely shredding fat and gaining muscle.
ruclips.net/video/NwgkqCC7-vI/видео.html
@@deronreed2945 his diet and training routine makes him put on muscle too. If he wasn't doing as much weight training he would lose more. Because he does weights he's putting on muscle and burning fat at the same time
Agree with others here that he's building muscle, and that's why I think looking at body composition (body fat %) is more useful than just looking at weight. I'm not sure how tall he is, but he had a lot of muscle mass to begin with. 205 is probably not a bad weight for him to be at. I'm curious what his body fat is at this point. It's likely under 20%.
It's rare to watch something on RUclips and feel a sense of empowerment and desire to do better... to do more... to keep striving for greater heights. This series made that happen for me.
Thank you, Will. Keep going.
As a former therapist, I never met a procrastinator who hadn't been brought up by a dominant and controlling parent and then spent a lifetime subconsciously sulking and using procrastination as a way to gain control OR, the client was a narcasstist who had a dominant, controling parent and used his parents as the excuse to be pandered to and use procrastination to gaslight and use misdirection towards everyone who were there to help him fulfill his promise. I've got a lot of understanding on why Will is Will. Forcing our kids to be perfect, like a robot is one sure way to £uck 'em up. We need to demonstrate honesty, integrity and empathy, whilst instilling a backbone, without breaking the spirit of a child; Moulding the character without breaking the spirit is definitely a job for grown-ups.
God bless Will for putting it all out there.
Idk why but everytime I watch one of will videos like this, I cry .Dam it will you bringing out the emotions in me.
Hands down, best short series I've ever seen so far. It feels so organic. I don't think I've felt more relatable to any situation as the ones Will presents. Can't wait to get my hands on the book!
I don't know any person who is so open and embracing of life. Will is like a human role model how we should think and live.
You’re amazing and most of your woes have been external and took on others’ concerns as your own. You have been one of the bright lights in “Hollyweird”
Please keep doing what you do. You are NOT a failure, you are doing what any one with common sense would do when trying to work on themselves. Will, you deserve this break. No body is judging you here. I applaud your authenticity. I work in Mental Health as a psych NP and honey! You get it! I can appreciate how you put yourself on blast, but you didn’t have to, you wanted to. It helps to be in touch with your mental health! Yaaaassss! Good for you!
Tells the crew hes not going to maintain appearances for the sake of the camera anymore! Wow he really took his own advice to heart!
Damn, Will is deep. Who knew the fresh prince turned acclaimed actor endured the same type of trauma so many of us experienced as children.
I cried when I read the “ A boy becomes a man when he realizes that his father is not Superman. “ I lost my father and stepfather in the span of 4 months last year and I had that exact feeling while seeing them deteriorate , that as a child they were Superman , and now I was holding their hands as the lived out their final days before passing away
Condolences to your family.
That hit me hard inside
Wills mom is BEAUTIFUL. I think this is very brave to lay it all out. 💜💜
Thank you Will for being vulnerable and sharing your testimony with the world. Your story needs to be told because so many of us can relate to childhood trauma. Please keep going and don’t stop because I feel like The Most High is using you. Dr. Ramiani is amazing, I watch her videos daily and I’m not sure where I would be without the knowledge that I’ve learned these last few years. Keep going 🙏🏾 Stay focus
