Will Smith, one of my favorite actors and rappers, tells the audience at the 2005 Kid’s Choice Awards that the keys to life are running and reading. The two minute YouTube clip is embedded below. Running because when you run you get tired and want to quit and have to train yourself to fight through the pain and be resilient, and reading because through books you can learn from the people who have lived before you. It’s inspirational to hear this message delivered by Smith to a rap beat and interspersed with some riffs on hard work.
