Mr Gardner is one of the few men that can on one hand fill me with hope that no one can take away and on another show me that hard work will never go to waste. I will probably never meet you and I have shed tears for your wife's plight but you fill me with an understanding I dearly wish my father had taught me. Thank you Mr Gardner. At 38, I lost my only sibling, Jenny to a car accident. at 41 I lost my only parent Theresa to another car accident. It was a Monday and was due to a coyote on the 405 freeway in Irvine Ca. I lost my way for a while but found myself in that loss. Mr Gardner along with other kind souls helped me to know what those losses meant. Thank you sir.
That was awesome! I just finished watching and its amazing how he can tell his story without breaking down! They would have had to carry me off the stage if that were me. All I can say is...That MUST be the peace of God! Amen and thank you for sharing.
He is a winner and a success story and like every successful man in history he owned up to his mistakes and corrected them, he did not blame the past or the government or the color of his skin, he knew what he had to do and did it with complete focus and determination, he is an example for all of us to follow!!!
I keep coming back to this video because hearing Chris Gardner say "Huh?" And then soul-laugh lends me strength to accept my recalcitrant end. Thank you.
We become the change when the best in us moves the rest of us. I borrow that from the remarkable Manly P Hall in order to say that every word of this resonates with me following the come-from-way-behind, second-half, half-dead resurrection of my character and integrity and that proves my claim that WE ARE NONE OF US ANY DIFFERENT ON THE INSIDE! If we talk to each other, we can learn from each other and together build a better world.
Wow I just watched this again on DVD because it has been a while and I never realized the part in the taxi cab where he said he was in the Navy. Then after researching I find he was a corpsman! I miss serving as a Corpsman and it's astounding the plans God has for men even after all these struggles in front of us! God Bless!
Having watched the whole speech until the end, I understand now some of the comments I've read why it's life changing. I feel blessed to have accidentally found this video and out of curiosity decided to watch it. Really feel a sense of connection and enjoyed every minute of it. The messages and the verbal and non verbal communication is absolutely fantastic.
THANK YOU so much for sharing your story Chris, I am passing this in to a few friends that need to be inspired and this sure does inspire, you are a very blessed man Sir x
People dont know how special amazing this human is , people hit the bottle and throw the there life in from a simple down in there life try to imagine what Chris went through. be inspired and you to can do it.
Sir i havent seen the movie yet but def going to watch it i am amazed at your perseverance and dedication your an amazing man thank you for sharing your lifes ups and down god bless your family
Just an amazing speech Chris ! One of the best I have seen, heard or felt.. Holly would be very proud of You! Resonated with me on many levels from my own life experience with losing loved ones.. You have certainly pushed your button and reimagined your own life. Thanks for the inspiration to do the same my Friend.
I really appreciate Chris Gardner as One of the best Motivational Speaker,he Inspires and gives very informative True to Life Stories..Pretty sure many will learns from him and follow his advice.
Sorry about Holly. I lost my dad to cancer too. But for everyone else, check out vitamin B17 for cancer. It is to cancer what vitamin C is to scurvy. I'm not a doctor, but just someone who has listened to the doctors who have done research on it. I first learned about it from a gal in a Pomeranian group who used it on her dog who had cancer. The growth disappeared in weeks. I then began to study it out. It's not quackery. It's good solid science that has results. Study it out for yourselves, and put it to the test.
I have learnt so much just listening to this video, that I am going to do what it takes to move my life forward in what I like doing most. Thank you s much Chris Gardener
I'm in a period of my life in wich i have all the opportunity i need, i can do whatever i want with my life, and yet I'm divided, came to think this freedom of choice can sometimes be a hell of a ghost, or curse, for someone like me, but watching this kind of things, this stories, just makes me want to get to it already, it makes me remember I'll be myself, always, no matter what i do, no one will ever steal that away from me, my education, my friends, my family, this are things i hold dear, and won't give away for nothing. Summing it up, i decided what I'll do, thanks to him and so many others that did not had a choice to make, it's an important day in my life, i guess, but as always, we only see it's importance when it's way gone, peace you all o7
@@hawkarae It actually is, thank you for caring! 5 years back i got into the police academy, been through a lot, still am, but i stayed true to myself to this day, so it is actually a surprise to see this comment, i had completely forgotten it, and it popped up at a great time. Thank you, younger me, and thank you, Odd Duck.

Wow. Found this by accident and I can honestly say I'm not the same after watching this
Chills came when he said, "Have I beem that kind of friend?"

"How did I get here. I drove here. I had something to do with it." Wise words to remember no matter what age.
I want to be this calm, this cool and this eloquent when I grow old. (Maybe also be 1/10 as wealthy as him). The man is a legend...
The Part where Chris talks about a DNR and Holly's foot gave me the the chills. I had to stop the video for a moment -
Hits so close to home!
He is a winner and a success story and like every successful man in history he owned up to his mistakes and corrected them, he did not blame the past or the government or the color of his skin, he knew what he had to do and did it with complete focus and determination, he is an example for all of us to follow!!!
Thanks to this video, I finally understand my purpose!
I keep coming back to this video because hearing Chris Gardner say "Huh?" And then soul-laugh lends me strength to accept my recalcitrant end. Thank you.
You are a very special person. It was a privilege to listen to you speak.
I have a new hero. I know at least some of his journey. It's hard being a single parent but you know... keep going.

Amazing. Where does his man's positive spirit come from?
having a great family and money. And being able to appreciate it at a whole new level because of how low he started.
His mother, his uncles, and his mentors
