Entry #4 The Key to Success

A while ago, a video which had a famous actor in it named Ashton Kutcher came accross my news feed so I played it. This video not only touched my heart and resignated close to home for me as it did for many others who are in their late teens and twenties. Before we discuss the video, here it is for you to watch:

Ashton Kutcher discusses 3 key points to being successful.

1. Opportunity.
While discussing opportunity, he appeals strongly to logic because it is only logical to learn from each job (as much as you may hate it at the time) as a learning experience and a way to succeed in the next job that'll take you close to your desired end result. This coming from a huge star that many people know, it resignates in our minds a little better because even the most successful people had to start somewhere!

2. Being Sexy.
Hearing "being sexy" automatically makes the Kardashians come to mind because that was the only way they became successful, but Ashton Kutcher has a different take on what "being sexy" looks like... Instead of taking this time to over sexualize the human body (as most people do now), Ashton took this time to appeal to the ethics our parents tried to raise us with by infasizing that nothing is more sexy than being smart! As a woman who society love to over sexualize, THIS got my attention. Finally someone admits that looks shall fade, but being smart, genuine, and thoughtful will last an eternity.

3.Build a life.
Saving the best for last, do not let someone draw boarders aroung you and limit your ability to change the world. This appealed to my emotions, having been in this box he speaks of time and time again. Instead of just fitting in and living the life your are told to, build the life you have always dreamed of. No one can stop you!

Now, this video was presented to me at the perfect time in my life. Hopefully, I brought it to you just in time.
