How Will Smith Succeeded?
Just finished leaders meeting today & my wife preached a Great Sermon!
Sermon was about how u need to ask God and venture into no man’s land, if u want a breakthrough.
The 1st point of the sermon really impacted me.
It’s about gathering your thoughts. If u want a breakthrough, u got to know what u want and ask God for it!
Recently, I just read an article about Will Smith in ‘Time’ Magazine.
When he was just starting out as a rap star and on the ‘Fresh Prince of Bel Air’, he had a goal!
He wanted to be the biggest star in the world!
He and his manager began to analyse the 10 top grossing movies of all time.
They realised that:
10 out of 10 had special effects
9 out of 10 had special effects with creatures.
8 out of 10 had special effects with creatures and a love story.
This probably explains why he did movies like ‘Bad Boys’,’Independence Day’ and ‘Men in Black’.
In order for Will Smith to succeed, he gathered his thoughts and analysed what it will take for him to be successful. He then worked towards his goals.
In the same way, if we want God to answer our prayers, we got to analyse the areas we want to focus on, and work purposefully towards our goals!
