  • thought i'd check out the book he is promoting, The Alchemist, the cover has a pyramid and the all seeing eye, wth Will your just making it too easy for the conspiracy theorists.

  • determination by dubb. search it. its an awesome song that uses will's quotes from this

  • 2+2 = Club sandwich.

  • you can build castles in the sky, but you can't live in them.

  • oh no, he sounds brain washed. Fuck

  • Comment removed

  • will smith : BLA BLA BLA , other guy : mhm sooo interesting *fall asleep* xD

  • What about all the people coming to Hollywood working there as of not making it??? Dont they believe it hard enough. I dont think Will talked like this before he became famous.

  • Is Will hittin' the bong or something? He's deep man! The universe...

  • omgosh i ironically just read that book in school & ironically its about irony & omens...sketch~

  • WTF is he talking about?

  • watch?v=2QamU4-8NUw

  • Such. A prat.

  • ...OH NO, he's dressed like Carlton

  • I've heard much about The Alchemist,we had the chance to read it in school (I choose Nothing New on the Western Front btw) There's apperantly an instance in the book where the character turns into a sandstorm.. Does he litteraly believe that?

  • Okay so I had a two apples, and my friend later today gave me two more. Now I cured cancer.

  • Sorry William, but 2 + 2 = 4 whether you like it or not. 

  • @finchy633 if he wants it's 59, problem?

  • scientology!? where is he talking about scientology? He is talking about possibilities are there as long as you decide you want it and you get out of your way and stop believing you cant do it. Maybe you wont completely achieve everything but you will achieve a greatness once you stop self lmiting beliefs

  • Will Smith I can do this, I believe this, I know this everything was I, I, I, I, I, I, I, that man was looking at himn like damn you dumb why did I invite you to my show for? Pure nonsense. Will got poop on his pea sized brain, I didn't know he was this retarded.

  • Look at all these ignorant people trying to disparage what Will is saying here. I guess incapable unreceptive minds can't comprehend wisdom.

  • he wants to be batman

  • This is what hollywood does to your brain like drugs have you thinking way out, you right Will "Parents just don't understand"

  • Scientologists need to be taught how to make SENSE!

  • Although certain circumstances can limit you, you can be whatever you want to be but, I am pretty sure 2+2= 4.

  • 0:23 WTF are ou talking about ............

  • why don't you try representing good acting fresh prince

  • this shit makes no sense. he has that good obama voice, that convincing shit. but i literally understood like 5% of what he said

  • He wants to be a god basically!

  • What does this have anything to do with SCIENTOLOGY?

    Isn't he just trying to inspire people to believe in themselves...not to think they can't. Isn't he trying to say believe you CAN, even when the odds are against you?

    I think that is a good idea for someone that a lot of people watch to want to spread. Plenty of today's "role models" waste their "voice/power" on negative things yet we criticize someone who is trying to help others because he has already made it somewhere...why?

  • "We are what we choose to be" - ignorant much?

  • @bajholster no not really because if you look at most of the people who who any position iof prominence in this world they chose that path look at an nfl player in any interview all of them say i chose this i wanted to be this since i was a kid. obama chose to run for president most people are mediocre becasue they choose to be cause mediocrity is easy and most people choose the easiest but people like will laid it all out on the line to succeed and did success is a choice.

  • @murdaface724 True in some cases but watch Dave Chapelle - The Secret here on youtube. He puts it quite well.

  • If you were in his place, with all your needs satisfied, and dreams becoming true, you'd start looking for meaning elsewhere. This guy found meaning in something that is nonsense, sadly.

  • lol image two guys on a treadmill thinking the same thoughts, ohh the tragedy XD

  • Yup. Hes definitely a Scilon now. He is lost.

  • I WANE REPRESENT AND IDEA AND BE THE BEST !LOL

  • @Zapilliphino22 what are you so pissed about mayne? Your about as dumb as will smith. Have you been locked in the closet with tom cruise?

  • Man He just completely fucked up his coolness by being a wierdo!

  • damn will smith has become carlton banks

  • Woll Smoth, how about you apply that scientology bullshit of yours and make a choice, just decide, that your wife is NOT banging Mark Anthony, and watch the universe get out of your way.

  • What a hypocrite,he was just saying on Ellen that God got him wher he is smh,this world is seriously changing for the worse.

  • Funny...I guess I took something different away from this vid. I interperet it as Will is trying to say that we don't have to be confined to our own OR other peoples' self limiting belief system. So many of us have the free will to do whatever we choose with our lives, but way too many of us allow 'the Universe', ie: our thoughts/other people, to control our actions and our destiny. I love the fact that he is sharing what he has learned through his own experience in this life.

  • 0:22

    LOL @Tavis's "WTF?!" face!!! LOL

  • Did you ever see that In Living Color sketch?Where Damon Waynes and David Allen greer are in prison, they say a lot of big words to sound smart, but all in the wrong context. What the fuck was Will Smith talking about? I think he's gone bat shit crazy ever since he hung out with Xenu Tom Cruise. I don't really like him anymore. Will Smith is not a brilliant man he worked hard but thats it. Quit being so fake and stop making your spoiled kids famous they both have no talent.

  • In Will Smith's case 2+2=4,000,000$ per movie. I think that's what he meant.

  • ROFL. I couldnt even watch the whole video.. Everytime he says "Ya know?", just means he doesnt know.

  • Well im not watching the next Men in Black Film....well maybe off of a website lol

  • Oh Will...who would have thought you were such an easy target to brainwash. I feel sorry for him, I hope someday he can get out of that bullshit and realize 2+2 indeed equals 4, and if you think you can create context and choose for it to not be 4, you are just another fucking deluded idiot.

  • No Will, 2+2=4.

  • i love will smith no matter what he is trying to do he is doing it to inspire

  • I believe I can fly. I believe I can touch the sky. I think about it every night and day. Now hold on while I go spread my wings and fly off my balcony....

  • I used to think Scientology just meant believing in science instead of a God so I respected it. Until I found out Scientologists actually believe that the higher power is an alien. Why are celebs so fucked up? I think having too much money just fucks with their heads.

  • I remember when Will Smith was cool!

  • so....what dose 2 + 2 = ?

  • Hollywood makes these out of touch, inaccessible people a little nutty.

  • honestly i hate the we are who we choose to be mentality. You know there are people who believe mental health disorders are a choice and only weak minded people suffer from them? Scientologists are those type of people. My theory is a lot of celebrities believe in scientology because they can't accept the fact that luck got them to be where they are today. They want to think they are some kind of chosen one.

  • @fantard100 agreed

  • @fantard100 "My theory is a lot of celebrities believe in scientology because they can't accept the fact that luck got them to be where they are today." Are you kidding me? Just because your dreams never came true doesn't mean you should put down hard working, successfull people. It seems there's a lot of jealous people on youtube.

  • @jazmethodz I'm not putting down all celebs, I'm putting down the ones who are Scientologists because it is a very STUPID religion. And yes it is luck because there effort isn't worth millions of dollars. I love Will, I think he is talented, but part of growing up in the USA, going the right schools, having parents to put you in acting classes etc..is luck that some others will never have. It's not like celebs have the ONLY talent in the world, scientologists make it sound like they do.

  • @fantard100 Well it sounds much more logical when you put it that way, but there are many celebrities that grew up in poverty and ghettos and they manage to rise up above it and make millions. I call that hard work. As for people like Will Smith's son and Miley Cyrus who have a free ticket because they've got a famous dad. I call that luck.

  • "The universe is water." - Will Smith

  • Paulo Coelho sells lot of books...but even in Brazil his work is controversial and very criticized .I my opinion, the coutry have better and well articulated writters than him.

  • 2 and 2 makes 4 my friend. Try JUST DECIDING that you are a bird, then use your money to rebuild the twin towers and jump the fuck off.

  • @Marasg89 2 + 2 = 0 in the set of integers modulo 4. It equals 1 in the set of integers modulo 3. If you found a way to make it equal something else that works for you, then you can believe that about it. I mean, you make a good point, that you as an individual believing something, doesn't make it a reality in the inter-subjective sense, and since we exist inter-subjectively we're gonna feel the repercussions of a bad decision, but artificial constraints are never good.

  • this shit pisses me off so much. It's bad enough I already have to deal with Evangelists. FUCK SCIENTOLOGY

  • @quantamsolstice Are you so fucking stupid. What he's saying isn't scientology you degenerate. I can tell you'll never make the cut.. Only reason I lash out at you is, because you got 5 people to believe your bullshit.

  • @quantamsolstice your idiot this is not about scientology its about that you can make what you want he loves the alchemist and that book is about masons thats the religion the practise

  • You defeat the cloak that has been rapped around you and release your mind and this makes alot of sence either study for years learn how corrupt the world is how trained you really are or just smoke a blunt sit back and you will see shit is fucked up lol GO WILL SMITH

  • Lol these ignorant ass comments saying he sounds crazy brings a single Native American tear fall from my eye. Dream big people

  • 2 + 2 IS 4

  • @80w40 im a graduate student studying pure mathematics, and i can confirm this

  • @80w40 He had to show us his math skills :P

  • @80w40 Don't be so close-mined, dude. 2+2 = 18, 000,000 $ per movie.

  • Paulo Coelho is not good. Read Torah and Talmud. There is the truth there. Scientology is for depressed people. NOT a religion.

  • Truth is absolute, not relative. 

  • @HiDefJesus The only problem is that everyone has their own idea of what "absolute truth" is.

  • I have actually taken a lot from my findings & have reaped nothing but positive benefits…The message he was trying to bring forth is TRULY very positive…

  • What you consider to be successful, beautiful, or meaningful will always be different than the person next you…but due to the aforementioned Law & the balance of the world we live in, we can attract those things & surroundings that we want… I am just a normal, 25 year old black woman who has been studying this “Law of Attraction” principle & the “Laws of the Universe”; I am not “selling” anything or advertising….

  • The “Law of Attraction” teaches that everything around you (your surroundings, your car, your friends, your bank account, etc) are all brought on by your focus & thoughts…whether you realize it or not (if it makes any of you feel better by sticking with something more familiar…this principle is very similar to “karma”). We are all an “effect” of our own perceptions & thoughts…the pursuit of your success, happiness, & joy is what YOU want…

  • From what I took from his interview when he states that he wants to be an "effect,” he wants to be proof to his peers of how his positive thoughts & perception placed him in the position to be where he wanted, to get where he wanted to go… He may not have literally meant that he wants to change factual, mathematic equations, but that your perception is your REALITY (he just didn’t quite interpret his thoughts as accurately)…

  • OMG People...Open your minds & "HEAR" the message that he is delivering instead of taking everything SO LITERALLY....Some of what he is trying to say comes from the teachings of "The Law of Attraction." This teaching is not a religion or to shift anyone in one specific direction, but simply put, it outlines that positive thoughts & perspective beget positive situations, influences, & surroundings...

  • 2+2= whatever i want it to be. my ears are bleeding

  • coolest man ever

  • will is still looking good for 42 hes my fave actor seen nearly all his films

  • I like will smith. But he just rambles here...

  • 0:20....LMAO!

  • Yes I also think, that we are who we choose to be, but that Will Smith is open minded to Scientology, I total disagree with. Ok, he said, that there're some good things in Scientology which you could put in one bowl with the bible, but that's not the same things in my opinion. Scientology is just like there're some people who have to everything an idea and stuff and right now they believe in everything you say to them.

  • if nothing else I can deffo agree with "We are who we choose to be."

  • Damn, we done lost Will Smith. smh

  • *grabs 2 bottles*

    *grabs another set of 2 bottles*

    *puts the bottles into one group*

    HOLY SHIT THE BOTTLES TURNED INTO A FISH! Oh god oh god @__@

  • this was one of the few videos that really inspired me.

  • And this is what Scientology does to the mind!!

  • 1:31 travis is thinking...."this nigga has lost his mind"

  • @mxpassion17 i think he was born with that look lol

  • @mxpassion17 nah your just delusional to society. ALCHEMY IS REAL. FUCK SCIENCE.

  • @ZnikiG I studied alchemy for many years.

  • Awesome. He manages by using solemn words to say exactly nothing.

  • Comment removed

  • will for president

  • I wanna represent MAGIC

  • He can create what he wants to create, so I guess he wants to create shitty movies. You'd think if he were as powerful as he seems to believe he is he'd use his so called magic to do something meaningful. Another epically overrated "actor" who thinks his skills have put him where he is when in reality the Hollywood powers chose him for some obscure reason - just like Shia LaBeouf and Nicolas Cage. The Fresh Prince has become a Stale King.

  • "study the patterns..." how can you study tge patterns in a universe where 2+2= what ever the fuck you what? They fucked with his head. 'Cause he is begining to sound a lot like Tom Cruz.

  • The look on Tavis Smiley's face is priceless.It's a look that says "Uh wtf is this fool talkin' bout ???".

  • @dubbsway4life

    lol xD

  • is he wearing two different shoes?..

  • @867stevo nah its the shadow making the shoes look like they're diffferent...loooool but i see why you say that.

  • @867stevo lmaoooo

  • 2+2 = whatever you believe it to be, he is basically saying you can only accept the idea that it adds up to 4 coz thats what you have been told ur whole life, this is just a metaphor, but it can be applied to any area of ur life. e.g. you believe men/women are assholes therefore you ONLY attract assholes, you believe wealthy people are greedy/corrupt, & you dont wanna be that, so ur basic belief means u aint gonna be rich, u think ur always sick & guess what...u are... etc etc

  • 2+2 = 3235

    wad the f***

    the host just like: what the f*** am i doin here??? hahah

  • 2+2 = 3235

    wad the f***

  • :)

  • eerrr I really like Will, but I think he's gone off on such a big tangent here that even he doesn't know what he's on about.

  • Will: I don't want to be an icon... Tavis: fair enough. Will: I want to represent an idea. Tavis: interesting. Will: I want to represent POSSIBILITIES. Tavis: f.a.n.t.a.s.t.i.c! :) Will: I want to represent - MAGIC... Tavis: huh? Will: you're in a universe and 2+2=4! Tavis: ...........Huston, we have a problem.
  • Comment removed

  • i'm pretty sure 2+2=4 regardless what you want it to be or not, will :(

  • it works for them thats why he still rich hes just telling us if you speak it it will happen!!! mind over matter is all he saying

  • Smoke some pot and it will make sense

  • @djmccabie You just lack the mental capacity to understand the language of the universe.

  • @hiphophead397 You just lack the mental capacity to understand pot.

  • will has no clue what he's saying and judging by the look on Tavis' face he doesn't either.

  • A family friend of mine is a shrink, and I told her that Will Smith claims he wants to be an idea, not an icon. 30+ years of being a psychologist and even she couldn't figure out what he was saying.

  • the universe is like water? never heard that one before.

  • @phatmattcowboys he makes it up

  • im going to my local bank today write down on my deposit slip 2 + 2 = 40,000,000

    shit im rich bitches...!!!

  • this is call .. a proactive person .

  • Man, Will smith is cool and all but he is FUCKED UP!

  • Look at that host's face. He has no idea what the hell is going on. 

  • Charlie sheen brings magic except in his world...2+2 = 7 grams of rock.

  • I think Will Smith wants 2 + 2 to equal 5.

  • damn I love you will

  • yaaay will smith :D

  • Overall, I love his thought process. No matter what negativity & jokes any of you have...you can not deny that he is successful in his line of business. So obviously he's got something right here. Personally, I'm going to always try to learn something from someone who has already accomplished something I'm trying to accomplish. If you don't understand or agree with what he says...just move on to he next video. You are in control of what you watch here. Honestly!

  • no Will. 2+2=4 whether you want it to or not

  • Scientology is weird.

  • Will sounds mixed up. "hard to put into words, real metaphysical esoteric nonsense" is about right though. IIRC The Alchemist is about following one's dreams and a voyage of personal discovery but it is not about becoming some kind of super being with the power to change the laws of mathematics. There is a line between self belief and delusion, this speech to me suggests Will is on the wrong side of that line. Will should stop subscribing to the church of scientology, it messes you up.

  • I feel alot of you are missing the point on the 2+2 = 4 thing. This is a website designed to watch videos correct? I think we will all agree with that. But it doesnt have to be just that. This can be a place to gain knowledge from other people who comment on videos, a place to gain knowledge from the videos themselves. It doesn't have to be a place to watch videos for the sole purpose of recreation. There is a box and you dont have to be inside it. Youtube can be what you want it to be. A outlet

  • 2 + 2 = 666

  • Travis is looking at will like "WTF fuck this nigga talkin about?"

  • @mxpassion17 exactly what I was thinking xD

  • bullshit at its best

    does he think he is perfect...... pfhahahha

  • he wasn't able to articulate what he was saying comprehesively,but he was just saying he won't settle for nothing that he dosen't feel is best.

  • The ultimate in human arrogance. YOU ARE NOT BEYOND REALITY. You are limited absolutely by reality. When you start pretending that you are beyond reality, you enter a fantasy, and you behave according to your fantasy, YET YOUR ACTIONS STILL AFFECT THE SAME REALITY THAT WE ALL ARE SUBJECT TO. You are trampling through a living room, and while you believe you are in a forest, you are still breaking someone's god damn furniture.

  • @TheWiseCommenter "you are what you choose to be" people with no dreams dont go anywhere. its like the saying you are what you eat. your not a cheeseburger, are you? no. but your filled with what that cheeseburger is filled with. if your dreams are nothing, if you have no dreams, what will you be?

  • @TheWiseCommenter so well said

  • @TheWiseCommenter You say arrogance, I say confidence. You're being more arrogant I think. You could say a living room full of furniture could be just as real as a planet full of cyborgs born with screwdriver hands. It may sound unreal, but just because it isn't proven doesn't mean it is not reality full stop. The reality may be that you probably don't like Will Smith.

  • @TheWiseCommenter its not saying that reality is nonexistent (or that by ignoreing it you change it) but theyer is a certain am mount of it you get to shape by your actions toward what is real to change it into the reality you desire

  • @TheWiseCommenter

    You are speaking about yourself. Who are YOU to tell ME what REALITY is? How do you KNOW? Reality is highly individual.. Look at depressed people vs naive happy people. Same game, different rules.

  • @clarkf Exactly, same game. Still stuck in that reality. Well done.

  • @TheWiseCommenter

    Which is legitimate. All that matters is: be a protector, not a participant. be angry and largely focused, and fuck all of your aspirations and dreams. be beyond the self-proclaiming, self-perpetuating cultural mechanisms of a capitalist society, as a singular entity, no matter what you do, you never are worth more than two entities, no matter how rich you feel. Believing in your own inner beauty is a soft curve into fascism, focusing on your cultural, exceptional and

  • @TheWiseCommenter

    beneficial concepts of self-evaluation and self-awareness is a disconnecting gesture, you process disintegration by following your purest wishes and dreams. We have been living for a very long time in a system that persuades us to feel special about ourselves without any disregards. We have to feed on to a pink gaga-machine that has been out of tune from the beginning. Being the central banks that keep on centralizing power by disrupting several economies

  • @TheWiseCommenter

    or the american political system which is basically a joke and has nothing to do with democracy in a theoretical sense. All I'm saying is: This SELF-AWARENESS, this striking bloody rush of being completey compelled with your own success, the maniacal asumption of the fruits you've planted may affect other's people life positively, but the given purpose, the meaning behind your actions will never overcome your subjective aspirations. as long as you strive the american dream

  • @TheWiseCommenter

    you remain the piece of shit that has the blood of billions on his hands. You have absolutely no right in "pursueing happiness" without regards on the cost of it while the death of 1 billion people of hunger, despair, war and thirst is on its way. we are about to watch a serious holocaust happening without DOING a shit about it, so fuck will smith and everything he has to say about inner beauty. give yourself up for the lifes of others. BE SOMETHING.

  • Comment removed

  • @TheWiseCommenter WIll Smith-- Screw that... gravity is gonna be what i want it to be ............jumps... .. noooooo wait i changed my mind..............AAAAHHHHH ...SPLAT!!!..

  • 2 + 2 = 4, don't defile reality, that's how shit gets ruined, you fucking idiot

  • Well I guess he's a scientologist. I'm kinda disappointed, but on the other hand, if there's anyone who could take on Lord Xenu, It'd be the MIB agent. All they need now is Tommy Lee Jones, and the earth would be saved...

  • even tho i didnt understand a shit, will smith is the shit

  • All he saying is not accepting anything ,not settling for anything,believing what you believe in an yourself and you are responsible for your pursuit in selfhappiness in making yourself happy thats all.Thats true power and that power only comes from the good lord which he already instilled it in all of us.

  • @swaguymusicpage....you shouldnt defend someone u dont know and secondly if thats the theory he wants to live by then so be it. calling people fools asshole go and research Scientology funny how only successful people are allowed to talk about the "religion".The God i serve is the one who died for me and for everyone. the God who loves rich or poor. so to go from believing God to believing that u can live life with the power of ur mind.... YEAH HE'S I IDIOT!!!!!

  • Umm...he's an idiot

  • @jrocket8709 Are you kidding me? Will Smith is one of the most intelligent actors to ever live. You just don't see the ideology behind what he is saying you fool.

  • Now just imagine if Charlie Sheen said that crazy shit.

  • Wow! What a detailed way to explain your beliefs! lol! Yep, this one really knows his stuff and by the way I have a couple of planets for sale if anyone is interested lol!

  • Comment 34 personnes ne peuvent-ils pas aimer..

  • Lulz...

    The cat ain't dead until you look in zeee box!
