One of the world's most charismatic entertainers opens up fully about his life in this brave, inspiring memoir. Will Smith's transformation from a fearful child in tense West Philadelphia to one of the biggest rap stars and movie stars in Hollywood history is an epic tale of inner transformation and outer triumph. Written with Mark Manson, this memoir is the product of a profound journey of self-knowledge — a reckoning with all that willpower can get you and all it can leave behind, including a family that felt like star performers in his one-man circus.
