Some of you may remember the movie the Pursuit of Happiness, that is a true story about Chris Gardner and his American dream coming true. Once sleeping in subways with his young son to becoming a millionaire.
He was a man who always had the hope of doing better not only for himself but his child as well. In one interview he described a scenario where a man in a Ferrari wanted his parking spot, and when he gave up his spot Chris said, "I will give you my spot if you tell me how you how you got the means to drive that car." This is one of many instances in which he formed relationships, which helped him rise to the top.
Once he was one of the millions of poor Americans ignored in society sleeping in the subways, to one of the Americans who are among the elite society of the rich.
"I think sometimes people get intimidated or afraid to dream" -Chris Gardner
For Chris the American dream is his reality.
