In what way can you adapt his words to your life? Are you a runner? Can running be a metaphor for other things? Are you a reader? What is your favorite passtime? Why?
I fell that his words are telling you to stay out of trouble. Use a sport to take up your time and read to get you education. I am not a runner. It can be a metaphor for anything really. It is kind of like life, it is hard and tough but in the long run it is kind of fun! I am not a huge reader, but I do read on occasion. My favorite pastime is swimming diving or cheering. I like those things because I grew up do them and they are fun to me. They keep me out of trouble and push my abilities. Most of the time I like doing these thing, but sometimes they are a hassle!
This video can inspire you not to give up on anything and if you do give up you won't get good outcomes. But if you work hard enough and get passed ups and downs you will have a good outcome. Running can be a metaphor to many things but it's true when you are running you think in your head your tired and you wanna give up but you don't want to and if you don't you will finish and get stronger. I have ran cross country and track before and I hated it but I did it and I ran and now that I think of me doing it I'm happy. After you finish a race you feel happy and feel very good about yourself. My favorite pass time is baseball because I love going to games and eating food at the fields.
His words are telling you to not give up on something you love or are good at doing. Also it's telling you to stay out of trouble so you can accomplish things. If you play sports through out High school and focus on your education then you won't get into bad thing like drugs. My favorite pastimes are soccer, softball, basketball, and volleyball. I love playing sports and staying busy. I always try new things and try to get better at it and not give upl
This video motivates you to do the things you love in order to keep yourself occupied and out of trouble. I just started running with year and may I say that is it a lot of work. It is easier to block everything out and just run for you. I don't like reading that much. If I am really bored I will read and try to stay intrigued. My favorite pastime is singing, and writing. I usually sit in my room and do both because it is just me by myself. It's way more fun that way because it's not for a grade and I don't have anyones criticism about what I am doing and what I love to do. This video is really motivating because it teaches you that some that that is important to you is way more important than trying to impress someone that doesn't even have your best interest. KEEP YOUR EYE ON THE NUMBER ONE PRIZE. You will definitely succeed.
This video is a very inspirational video. His main point he wanted to get across was to never give up on your dreams. Running is not always easy so he wants you to work hard for what you want in your life. Running is can be a metaphor for not giving up and pushing yourself to the limit. I don’t mind running but I’d rather not do it at all. I hate reading. To me reading is very boring and time consuming. Many people in general don’t like to read. I have never liked reading. I like to play sports in my pastime or watching something.
Will smith is trying to get across to his viewers, to never give up on your dreams and goals. When he says running, he's referring to never giving up. I feel that I am a "runner". I also like to run, I don't run track or cross country but I do play baseball, Football and I wrestle. Running doesn't bother me, unlike all of people that can't stand it. I do not like to read... Usually. If I read, it's usually because I'm very very very bored. I have to be reading a very interesting book or else I am lost. I spend most of my time with family, friends or playing sports.
This video is saying that your going to have tough times in your life but you have to get past those times to move forward and be successful. Just like when he said in the video that when you are running you have that person telling you to stop and that it is too hard, but you have to learn how to tell that person no. When he said reading was the other key to life, I think that he meant that you need to learn off of other peoples' mistakes and problems. What he said is very true and also inspirational. I have heard Will Smith say some other inspirational things also. In the movie "Pursuit of Happiness" he says to his little boy to " Never let anyone tell you that you cant do something. You have a dream, you protect it, and work to achieve it." That probably is one of my favorite movies. I think running is a metaphor for other things. I don’t actually run on a track team or anything but in almost all the sports I play involve running and I do much of it. I am not a reader unless it is about things that interest me. His words adapt to my life because sometimes I have downs or things I don’t want to happen, like injuries. I have had injuries in the past and needed to get past a down moment to help me get back up and play again. I think that these words can be a motivation to my whole life also. My favorite pastimes are sports.
I like to run but I am not in track or cross country. I think running can be used as a metaphor. For example, Someone may say I am running right through this test. Meaning they are getting done with the test fast. I am a reader. My favorite pastime would have to be reading or spending time with my family.
Will Smith is referring to running as never give up and if you give up you won't have the ability to do certain things or have the courage to do things that you really like in life.Will smith was referring reading to......I..guess..reading.I really like will smith's running and reading speach and it teaches me to do something,never give up in life because you might not get anywhere in life.And you should read but don't give up on it or as will Smith would say don't stop running.
Will Smith was talking about how you cannot give up if you want your life to be successful. I feel I am a runner. As a runner you never stop and give up. You try and try and try to get better to accomplish certain things. One example of me being a runner is in cross country. I never thought I would enjoy cross country but I trained and trained day after day and ran until I did it with no pain. Everyone should be a runner. I agree with Will Smith. Always try your hardest. Don't give up and you will succeed.
I feel like he is saying you can do anything you want as long as you be active and read. He is trying to tell anyone that listens is that you should always follow your dreams and never give up. I personally don't like running but I love to be active. I play baseball and like playing basketball and football with my friends. I do not personally like to read books. Unless it's a book about a person in sports history. Or has anything to do with sports. My favorite pasttime is playing sports because you can strive to win and be competitive against your friends or anyone else.
A way you cam learn from these words are that they are some of the most important thing you will need in life. You need to know how to read and also you need to run to stay fit and healthy. Some of my favorite past times to do is to shoot guns or do stuff with my family. I do spots almost all year around and we are always running while I do the sports. And like in our class we are always reading or have to do a book report. You should always try to read at less a little bit a day and should go outside and do some physical activity.
Something that you can learn from Will Smith's words is to not stop trying or to not give up. I run at least three times a week. But I don't read as much as I run. The reason why I run more than I read is so i can stay fit for soccer and other sports that I play.
Something I learned from Will Smith's words are, to not give up because there is more out there. Running and reading are two totally different topics. You need to learn how to read so you can discover many things. Running is different, you can go without running. It would be hard because how else would you exercise. I personally hate hearing the word "run", but running it doesn't bother me. Reading, we all do everyday. Reading is ok, but in the past two years [this year and last]my reading teachers have had such an impact on my reading skills. Yes, sometimes you will want to give up, but you can't its not an option. ;)
Something I've learned from Will Smiths words are that you should never give up no matter how hard something is. I'm not really a runner. Reading is something that we do everyday. I would pick reading over running because reading is easy to understand.
The message that I believe Will Smith is trying to convey to those of us watching the video is that you need to work hard to be able to succeed in life. The little voice is that of either self doubt or that of those that are trying to hold you back or put you down, and the only way to defeat that is through hard work.
In most cases, the people that succeed are those that put in the time and the effort, study physical effort and those that fail are frequently the ones that try to just do enough to get by.
Will's point about reading being the second key is all about knowledge and learning. Most situations that you may come across have already been encountered by other people, and frequently there are books or articles that you can read that will help you to solve any problem you may encounter in life. Reading also helps you gain insight or facts about topics of all kinds.
I can adapt his words to my life by using his advice. Taking out the little voice that says that I cannot do or cannot finish anything that I have started. Taking that out of my mind will help me achieve anything if I would put my mind to it. Also reading will help me in the long run. It will help, because I will have to use a lot of reading skills during high school to understand what my English teacher will unleash on us next year. Taking this advice will have me on the right track to success.
What I think he is saying is reading puts you in a place beyond earth running makes you stronger.To be in that world it's amazing mystery books are fun and exciting and thrilling but we need running also to stay in shape and not get bad health. And to be smart you have to read like math books you don't like to read it but it makes you smarter
I think it's like his words are telling other kids to like stay out of trouble & that you can do whatever you as long as your active & know what & how to read also to never give up just follow your dreams & work hard for what you want in life. Like I'm a singer I love to sing so if I wanna become a singer I have to work really hard & not give up on my dream.
I believe Will Smith is trying to tell us to keep going, not getting in any trouble on the way. I do run sometimes, and I enjoy running more than most people do. Reading literature is something not people enjoy, but they need it to succeed. I somewhat enjoy reading, only if the book is interesting, but I do believe you should read things you enjoy, rather than read about something you dislike. My favorite pass times include stuff just as simple as hanging out with my dad.
I think he's trying to say something like to keep going forward and not to let anything drag you down because that will just slow you down and in real life that is such a sucky thing to do. Always believe that you can do better and you can. Never let someone else pull you to where you don't even know what's going on
Will Smith is telling us to keep going and be a runner. His advice is telling us to run for things in life. I like to run sometimes. I mean I run in basketball practice everyday by doing suicides and workouts. But this can also be used as a metaphor. This video is saying tough times in your life that you just need to run over it. In the video he's running and there's voice I got telling him to stop and you shouldn't listen to that. Listen to your heart.
His words can motivate you to keep going forward, and never give up. It's a metaphor, that's it's gonna be hard, but you have to push yourself to get it done. In my freetime I like to go on walks, and think about things.
I believe that Wll Smith is telling us that life will always throw clalenges your way but you have to overcome them to continue on your journey through life. I run only if I have too much built up energy. I enjoy running when I do it for fun, but when it comes to running when it's for a serious cause, I don't like it. I am not a huge fan of reading, I get a good book every now and then to read but besides that, reading is not particularly for me. I do agree that reading is good for you, so I try my best to look out for a book I like every now and then. My gavorite passtime is playing soccer. I've been playing since I could remember!
I believe Will Smith is trying to get across to viewers. He is telling them that they will face adversity in their lives and they will have to overcome it. He wants them to know when facing adversity it is how fast you can recover. I think he is also telling you to dream and work as hard as u can to achieve that dream. You can do anything if you put in the right amount of work. I run a lot for wrestling and football. I like running it doesn't really bother me. I don't read too much. I only read when I have too. My favorite pastime is sports.
Will is saying that you cant get anything accomplished by not pursuing the dreams you have if you want something go and get it don't wait for someone to do it because no one will help you on the thing you need. If u wanna build your stairs to the top of a successful life build it yourself with the right tools and equipment. But you don't always have to have money to be happy yeah sure it's not bad to have a little cash in your pocket but to much can turn u into a monster a greedy one that no one would like to have as a friend.so pursue your dreams and live happily just don't let it go to your head
I think that he's trying to tell us to never give up easily and/or without trying. I don't really like to run either. However, I guess it could be used as a metaphor too. Like, when someone tells you, you ran through the chart. It could mean that you went from the lowest grade to the highhest, or from the highest to the lowest. I mean, I'm not very sure about the phrase too, but I think it could kinda work out in a sentence.
Will Smith is trying to say you can't accomplish something without attempting or putting your best effort into it. When you run it can get overwhelming and you want to stop. I run because I am in soccer. I run more than I read and my favorite pass time is just going outside to do something.
I feel he is telling me to stay away from trouble. Yes I am a runner for short distances! Running is definitely a metaphor. I like to read sometimes. My favorite pastimes are basketball, track, and gymnastics because they are competitive and I like competition.
I thought the message he was trying to get across with his viewers was to not give up on your dreams, and don't let what people say discourage them dreams. I've been told by many people that if I want get somewhere in life and be in a better situation than I am today I gotta work as I hard as I can to get there. I think I have the athletic ability to get somewhere but if I don't do good in school I would be just throwing away big opportunities later in my life. But to past time I like to play sports such as football,baseball,and wrestling.
I think that he is telling me to stay out of trouble and to do something with your downtime. Running is just a metaphor. I don't really like to read but I do like to play basketball, and football because of the competition and get to go to college.
You can adapt his words to your life by running to be healthier and to be stronger and read more books to be smarter and read faster. I like to run but I am not on the tract or cross-country team. Yes, I think running can be used for other things for example if you are running for the end of a book or the finish line of something. I like to read, but I do not know if I would call myself a reader or not. My favorite pastime would have to be playing outside with my dogs, reading, running, or hanging out with friends or family.
his words are telling you to not give up and always do your best. it is important to stay out of trouble and always do what you think is right. running is a metaphor for a lot of different thing it could be a metaphor for just about anything. I don't run, and I don't read. every once and awhile I will read but normally I only read when I have to. my favorite pastimes are swimming and lacrosse. I like playing sports and staying busy. it makes time go by faster and you get to have fun while doing it.
The message conveyed in this video is as important as he says it is. I believe running and reading are in fact two of the most crucial skills to have for life. I am definitely considered a runner. I participate in cross-country and track, and run long distances, like ten miles, without stopping. Being such a huge fan of running, I understand his examples of the feelings, and strength physically and emotionally in running. It teaches you to push yourself to your limits, because the hardest worker in the end, will lead the best life. It can be in anything, not just running,which makes running a metaphor in this case. Reading is also an important skill for life. I read books every now and then, but I was more of a reader when I was younger, not so much now. It increases your mental capabilities, and makes you wiser. Knowing how to read can help you all through life, which is why Will Smith says it's so important. My favorite passtime is running, because I can naturally push myself a lot which is needed in running, so I can run really well now.
I feel like he is saying that when you stay busy by doing sports, it's easier to stay out of trouble. I am not a runner. Running could be a metaphor for trying hard, and giving it your all. By "running," you can achieve your goals. I do not read frequently, but when I was little I would read all the time. My favorite pastime is drawing, or coloring because it relieves stress, and it's very simple. Plus it's always nice to get just sit down, and color. There's something so carefree, and easy about it.

His words are saying keep your mind busy on something productive instead of something negative. I am definitely not a runner. What I do to pass time is a number of things. I like to watch tv shows on Netflix. I like to sleep. I like to clean sometimes. If you do what you like its not horrible.
What I feel that the message that he wants to get through was that we should focus on that we should set goals for ourselves. And I would agree that running and reading are very important things because they both involve strength, with running you have to have physical and mental strength because your body is telling you to quit but in your head and heart tell you to keep going going, that this isnt hell because pain in hell is forever and this is only for a short while, and that victory is forever but the pain wont last. Reading on the other had is mental and physical strength because if its late at night and you have been studying and reading for finals and all your body wants is to sleep and rest but your heart is telling you that you should push through it and get it done because in the end it will all pay off. I am not sure if i can be qualified as a runner yet but I have always loved running. Some things I do in my free time is look at shoes on Flight Club ,run and swim, and working out. And I do all of those things because they all help me in some way except the Flight Club part
I think Will Smith is trying to say that you should stay busy doing things that are useful and to not give up. I am a runner. I'm not saying that I love it 100% but it does help me stay busy in a positive way. I am not a reader. I don't like to read on my spare time unless it's with the class and a grade or I'm kinda being forced to read by my parents. My favorite way to use my past time is watching the best Netflix T.V. Shows. I watch Netflix a lot so I'm always looking for new ones.
He is trying to say never give up on anything. Even if nothing is on your side. He is also trying to say that education is also very important. Without that you would be no where. I am not a runner. I will read every once and a while. I usually don't have much time to get any where in a book.
I can adapt to his words in many ways, for example swimming, and basketball. During the summer I have morning practices for swimming for an hour. After that practice my bestfriends and I come back to the pool and swim all day. Yes I am a runner, and yes running can be a metaphor for other things. Like he said in the video the little voice in your head is always saying I'm tired, my legs hurt. But once you can defeat that voice you can accomplish a lot more in life. I'm not that big of a reader, but one of my favorite past times is when my mom and dad would always read to me before bed.
I can adapt his words into my life through school work. I'm always tired, constantly bouncing from school to softball to sleep, I never have energy to do things that are important like homework. Will Smith says you gotta stop the little voice in your head while you're running, you also have to do that with school work. After I come home from softball at 5 and I just want to shower and sleep, I gotta keep going. I have to do my homework, which is hard for me. I'm always late on homework, and I know that won't fly in highschool, so I have to get better about it. You just got to push yourself even when you really don't want to because, in the end the outcome will be great and you will be really proud you did your homework instead of going to bed at seven.
Will Smiths words in the video do adapt to me in life. He said when you are running a little voice tells you stop but you know you have to finish. I was always told to finish what you have and never stop till you have completed it. So I believe that when he says running it is a metaphor. I am not a reader and never really have been reading has never really interested. My favorite pastime and would have to say would be going outside and playing with my friends. I hate to be inside so I am always outside.
By running her means to push yourself to the limits to defeat the Voice in your head is to finally achieve your limits, to defeat the Voice in your head is to finally achieved you. Your goals and limits and life yes I do think that the running and reading is all a metaphor for pushing yourself to be the greatest but you can be to work as hard as you can and to get to where you want to be faster and on the right track
Running can adapt to my life because its saying never give up and be successful in life and in anything you do. I can say myself is a runner as well because of football season when we run I can't never give up and keep pushing myself and work hard to be the best I can be. Running can be a metaphor for go hard or go home because that person that's telling you to quit you have to work past him and keep going and going. I think I'm sort of a reader a little bit because I like to read the books I like, but I don't like books I like to read. Most of my pass time is thinking about playing high school football and practicing to be ready for it. The reason why is because I want to be the best I can be and be a starter as a freshman in high school and my dream goal is to go to the NFL.
Running in the sense of this video is a metaphor for never giving up. Reading is an accessory to that, striving to be the best possible version of oneself. You are your own harshest critic, so, once you move beyond that, many things become suddenly achievable.
I think running in this figurative sense means to keep moving forward. I think that reading means gaining knowledge. If you have made a mistake or done something stupid move forward and gain knowledge from the experience. In the literal sense I am not a runner, but I read all the time. I like reading because it helps me gain knowledge, inspires me, and feeds my imagination. During what little free time I have, I am usually reading, listening to music, walking around my neighborhood, hanging out with my friends, or on my phone or laptop.
This video is really inspiring his words are saying how you shouldn't give up. You should always stick with your dreams no matter what and my favorite past time is soccer..it's so much fun I would just give up on something like that and running can adapt because it's a part of my life you have to run to be able to play soccer so it's important to me
This video is very inspiring u shouldn't ever give up and I think he expressed that very well. You should push yourself to be the best version of yourself possible and try to become a bigger better version. Running means keep moving forward and never back . Also reading is to not give up and reading is something u can do to relieve stress
I love reading as a pastime that I personally enjoy and do often. Now I am obviously not a runner in real life but I think running here means to keep moving forward and don't let other people keep you from doing that.
His words are telling me to never give up and you can accomplish anything. I don't like running and I don't read much. My favorite pastime is watching YouTube and shopping. But his words can inspire me to try harder and try new things. Not be afraid to do things. You can do anything and everything.

This video can inspire you not to give up on anything and if you do give up you won't get good outcomes. But if you work hard enough and get passed ups and downs you will have a good outcome. Running can be a metaphor to many things but it's true when you are running you think in your head your tired and you wanna give up but you don't want to and if you don't you will finish and get stronger. I have ran cross country and track before and I hated it but I did it and I ran and now that I think of me doing it I'm happy. After you finish a race you feel happy and feel very good about yourself. My favorite pass time is baseball because I love going to games and eating food at the fields.
His words are telling you to not give up on something you love or are good at doing. Also it's telling you to stay out of trouble so you can accomplish things. If you play sports through out High school and focus on your education then you won't get into bad thing like drugs. My favorite pastimes are soccer, softball, basketball, and volleyball. I love playing sports and staying busy. I always try new things and try to get better at it and not give upl

A way you cam learn from these words are that they are some of the most important thing you will need in life. You need to know how to read and also you need to run to stay fit and healthy. Some of my favorite past times to do is to shoot guns or do stuff with my family. I do spots almost all year around and we are always running while I do the sports. And like in our class we are always reading or have to do a book report. You should always try to read at less a little bit a day and should go outside and do some physical activity.
Something that you can learn from Will Smith's words is to not stop trying or to not give up. I run at least three times a week. But I don't read as much as I run. The reason why I run more than I read is so i can stay fit for soccer and other sports that I play.
Something I learned from Will Smith's words are, to not give up because there is more out there. Running and reading are two totally different topics. You need to learn how to read so you can discover many things. Running is different, you can go without running. It would be hard because how else would you exercise. I personally hate hearing the word "run", but running it doesn't bother me. Reading, we all do everyday. Reading is ok, but in the past two years [this year and last]my reading teachers have had such an impact on my reading skills. Yes, sometimes you will want to give up, but you can't its not an option. ;)
Something I've learned from Will Smiths words are that you should never give up no matter how hard something is. I'm not really a runner. Reading is something that we do everyday. I would pick reading over running because reading is easy to understand.
The message that I believe Will Smith is trying to convey to those of us watching the video is that you need to work hard to be able to succeed in life. The little voice is that of either self doubt or that of those that are trying to hold you back or put you down, and the only way to defeat that is through hard work.
In most cases, the people that succeed are those that put in the time and the effort, study physical effort and those that fail are frequently the ones that try to just do enough to get by.
Will's point about reading being the second key is all about knowledge and learning. Most situations that you may come across have already been encountered by other people, and frequently there are books or articles that you can read that will help you to solve any problem you may encounter in life. Reading also helps you gain insight or facts about topics of all kinds.

I can adapt his words to my life by using his advice. Taking out the little voice that says that I cannot do or cannot finish anything that I have started. Taking that out of my mind will help me achieve anything if I would put my mind to it. Also reading will help me in the long run. It will help, because I will have to use a lot of reading skills during high school to understand what my English teacher will unleash on us next year. Taking this advice will have me on the right track to success.
What I think he is saying is reading puts you in a place beyond earth running makes you stronger.To be in that world it's amazing mystery books are fun and exciting and thrilling but we need running also to stay in shape and not get bad health. And to be smart you have to read like math books you don't like to read it but it makes you smarter
I think it's like his words are telling other kids to like stay out of trouble & that you can do whatever you as long as your active & know what & how to read also to never give up just follow your dreams & work hard for what you want in life. Like I'm a singer I love to sing so if I wanna become a singer I have to work really hard & not give up on my dream.
I believe Will Smith is trying to tell us to keep going, not getting in any trouble on the way. I do run sometimes, and I enjoy running more than most people do. Reading literature is something not people enjoy, but they need it to succeed. I somewhat enjoy reading, only if the book is interesting, but I do believe you should read things you enjoy, rather than read about something you dislike. My favorite pass times include stuff just as simple as hanging out with my dad.

I think he's trying to say something like to keep going forward and not to let anything drag you down because that will just slow you down and in real life that is such a sucky thing to do. Always believe that you can do better and you can. Never let someone else pull you to where you don't even know what's going on
Will Smith is telling us to keep going and be a runner. His advice is telling us to run for things in life. I like to run sometimes. I mean I run in basketball practice everyday by doing suicides and workouts. But this can also be used as a metaphor. This video is saying tough times in your life that you just need to run over it. In the video he's running and there's voice
I got telling him to stop and you shouldn't listen to that. Listen to your heart.
His words can motivate you to keep going forward, and never give up. It's a metaphor, that's it's gonna be hard, but you have to push yourself to get it done. In my freetime I like to go on walks, and think about things.
I believe that Wll Smith is telling us that life will always throw clalenges your way but you have to overcome them to continue on your journey through life. I run only if I have too much built up energy. I enjoy running when I do it for fun, but when it comes to running when it's for a serious cause, I don't like it. I am not a huge fan of reading, I get a good book every now and then to read but besides that, reading is not particularly for me. I do agree that reading is good for you, so I try my best to look out for a book I like every now and then. My gavorite passtime is playing soccer. I've been playing since I could remember!
I believe Will Smith is trying to get across to viewers. He is telling them that they will face adversity in their lives and they will have to overcome it. He wants them to know when facing adversity it is how fast you can recover. I think he is also telling you to dream and work as hard as u can to achieve that dream. You can do anything if you put in the right amount of work. I run a lot for wrestling and football. I like running it doesn't really bother me. I don't read too much. I only read when I have too. My favorite pastime is sports.
Will is saying that you cant get anything accomplished by not pursuing the dreams you have if you want something go and get it don't wait for someone to do it because no one will help you on the thing you need. If u wanna build your stairs to the top of a successful life build it yourself with the right tools and equipment. But you don't always have to have money to be happy yeah sure it's not bad to have a little cash in your pocket but to much can turn u into a monster a greedy one that no one would like to have as a friend.so pursue your dreams and live happily just don't let it go to your head
I think that he's trying to tell us to never give up easily and/or without trying. I don't really like to run either. However, I guess it could be used as a metaphor too. Like, when someone tells you, you ran through the chart. It could mean that you went from the lowest grade to the highhest, or from the highest to the lowest. I mean, I'm not very sure about the phrase too, but I think it could kinda work out in a sentence.

His word is inspiring the readers to not give up and to stay strong, to keep your head up and don't give up. I don't like to run.
Will Smith is trying to say you can't accomplish something without attempting or putting your best effort into it. When you run it can get overwhelming and you want to stop. I run because I am in soccer. I run more than I read and my favorite pass time is just going outside to do something.
I feel he is telling me to stay away from trouble. Yes I am a runner for short distances! Running is definitely a metaphor. I like to read sometimes. My favorite pastimes are basketball, track, and gymnastics because they are competitive and I like competition.
I thought the message he was trying to get across with his viewers was to not give up on your dreams, and don't let what people say discourage them dreams. I've been told by many people that if I want get somewhere in life and be in a better situation than I am today I gotta work as I hard as I can to get there. I think I have the athletic ability to get somewhere but if I don't do good in school I would be just throwing away big opportunities later in my life. But to past time I like to play sports such as football,baseball,and wrestling.
I think that he is telling me to stay out of trouble and to do something with your downtime. Running is just a metaphor. I don't really like to read but I do like to play basketball, and football because of the competition and get to go to college.
You can adapt his words to your life by running to be healthier and to be stronger and read more books to be smarter and read faster. I like to run but I am not on the tract or cross-country team. Yes, I think running can be used for other things for example if you are running for the end of a book or the finish line of something. I like to read, but I do not know if I would call myself a reader or not. My favorite pastime would have to be playing outside with my dogs, reading, running, or hanging out with friends or family.

his words are telling you to not give up and always do your best. it is important to stay out of trouble and always do what you think is right. running is a metaphor for a lot of different thing it could be a metaphor for just about anything. I don't run, and I don't read. every once and awhile I will read but normally I only read when I have to. my favorite pastimes are swimming and lacrosse. I like playing sports and staying busy. it makes time go by faster and you get to have fun while doing it.
The message conveyed in this video is as important as he says it is. I believe running and reading are in fact two of the most crucial skills to have for life. I am definitely considered a runner. I participate in cross-country and track, and run long distances, like ten miles, without stopping. Being such a huge fan of running, I understand his examples of the feelings, and strength physically and emotionally in running. It teaches you to push yourself to your limits, because the hardest worker in the end, will lead the best life. It can be in anything, not just running,which makes running a metaphor in this case. Reading is also an important skill for life. I read books every now and then, but I was more of a reader when I was younger, not so much now. It increases your mental capabilities, and makes you wiser. Knowing how to read can help you all through life, which is why Will Smith says it's so important. My favorite passtime is running, because I can naturally push myself a lot which is needed in running, so I can run really well now.

I feel like he is saying that when you stay busy by doing sports, it's easier to stay out of trouble. I am not a runner. Running could be a metaphor for trying hard, and giving it your all. By "running," you can achieve your goals. I do not read frequently, but when I was little I would read all the time. My favorite pastime is drawing, or coloring because it relieves stress, and it's very simple. Plus it's always nice to get just sit down, and color. There's something so carefree, and easy about it.

His words are saying keep your mind busy on something productive instead of something negative. I am definitely not a runner. What I do to pass time is a number of things. I like to watch tv shows on Netflix. I like to sleep. I like to clean sometimes. If you do what you like its not horrible.
What I feel that the message that he wants to get through was that we should focus on that we should set goals for ourselves. And I would agree that running and reading are very important things because they both involve strength, with running you have to have physical and mental strength because your body is telling you to quit but in your head and heart tell you to keep going going, that this isnt hell because pain in hell is forever and this is only for a short while, and that victory is forever but the pain wont last. Reading on the other had is mental and physical strength because if its late at night and you have been studying and reading for finals and all your body wants is to sleep and rest but your heart is telling you that you should push through it and get it done because in the end it will all pay off. I am not sure if i can be qualified as a runner yet but I have always loved running. Some things I do in my free time is look at shoes on Flight Club ,run and swim, and working out. And I do all of those things because they all help me in some way except the Flight Club part
I think Will Smith is trying to say that you should stay busy doing things that are useful and to not give up. I am a runner. I'm not saying that I love it 100% but it does help me stay busy in a positive way. I am not a reader. I don't like to read on my spare time unless it's with the class and a grade or I'm kinda being forced to read by my parents. My favorite way to use my past time is watching the best Netflix T.V. Shows. I watch Netflix a lot so I'm always looking for new ones.
He is trying to say never give up on anything. Even if nothing is on your side. He is also trying to say that education is also very important. Without that you would be no where. I am not a runner. I will read every once and a while. I usually don't have much time to get any where in a book.
I can adapt to his words in many ways, for example swimming, and basketball. During the summer I have morning practices for swimming for an hour. After that practice my bestfriends and I come back to the pool and swim all day. Yes I am a runner, and yes running can be a metaphor for other things. Like he said in the video the little voice in your head is always saying I'm tired, my legs hurt. But once you can defeat that voice you can accomplish a lot more in life. I'm not that big of a reader, but one of my favorite past times is when my mom and dad would always read to me before bed.
I can adapt his words into my life through school work. I'm always tired, constantly bouncing from school to softball to sleep, I never have energy to do things that are important like homework. Will Smith says you gotta stop the little voice in your head while you're running, you also have to do that with school work. After I come home from softball at 5 and I just want to shower and sleep, I gotta keep going. I have to do my homework, which is hard for me. I'm always late on homework, and I know that won't fly in highschool, so I have to get better about it. You just got to push yourself even when you really don't want to because, in the end the outcome will be great and you will be really proud you did your homework instead of going to bed at seven.
Will Smiths words in the video do adapt to me in life. He said when you are running a little voice tells you stop but you know you have to finish. I was always told to finish what you have and never stop till you have completed it. So I believe that when he says running it is a metaphor. I am not a reader and never really have been reading has never really interested. My favorite pastime and would have to say would be going outside and playing with my friends. I hate to be inside so I am always outside.
By running her means to push yourself to the limits to defeat the Voice in your head is to finally achieve your limits, to defeat the Voice in your head is to finally achieved you. Your goals and limits and life yes I do think that the running and reading is all a metaphor for pushing yourself to be the greatest but you can be to work as hard as you can and to get to where you want to be faster and on the right track
Running can adapt to my life because its saying never give up and be successful in life and in anything you do. I can say myself is a runner as well because of football season when we run I can't never give up and keep pushing myself and work hard to be the best I can be. Running can be a metaphor for go hard or go home because that person that's telling you to quit you have to work past him and keep going and going. I think I'm sort of a reader a little bit because I like to read the books I like, but I don't like books I like to read. Most of my pass time is thinking about playing high school football and practicing to be ready for it. The reason why is because I want to be the best I can be and be a starter as a freshman in high school and my dream goal is to go to the NFL.
Running in the sense of this video is a metaphor for never giving up. Reading is an accessory to that, striving to be the best possible version of oneself. You are your own harshest critic, so, once you move beyond that, many things become suddenly achievable.
I think running in this figurative sense means to keep moving forward. I think that reading means gaining knowledge. If you have made a mistake or done something stupid move forward and gain knowledge from the experience. In the literal sense I am not a runner, but I read all the time. I like reading because it helps me gain knowledge, inspires me, and feeds my imagination. During what little free time I have, I am usually reading, listening to music, walking around my neighborhood, hanging out with my friends, or on my phone or laptop.
This video is really inspiring his words are saying how you shouldn't give up. You should always stick with your dreams no matter what and my favorite past time is soccer..it's so much fun I would just give up on something like that and running can adapt because it's a part of my life you have to run to be able to play soccer so it's important to me
This video is very inspiring u shouldn't ever give up and I think he expressed that very well. You should push yourself to be the best version of yourself possible and try to become a bigger better version. Running means keep moving forward and never back . Also reading is to not give up and reading is something u can do to relieve stress
I love reading as a pastime that I personally enjoy and do often. Now I am obviously not a runner in real life but I think running here means to keep moving forward and don't let other people keep you from doing that.
His words are telling me to never give up and you can accomplish anything. I don't like running and I don't read much. My favorite pastime is watching YouTube and shopping. But his words can inspire me to try harder and try new things. Not be afraid to do things. You can do anything and everything.
