I would like to share some lessons from Chris Gardner's book and the theme of the movie 'pursuit of happiness'. At first glance Chris Gardner is an impressive example of the person's application of the principle of success against overwhelming obstacles, and anyone can prove it if he does so. What is his obstacle? Gardner happens to be an African-American, not a major hiring opportunity for a financial services company in the late 1970s (the occupation he chose). He does not have a university degree and has only high school diploma and naval degree. When he was young, his stepfather was emotionally and physically abused, and from time to time was promoted in foster care. He became a single mother. When it was a stock broker, I became homeless, I continued my daily work in some way, and transferred my baby's son from a nursery to a homeless shelter. At a desperate moment he sometimes sleeps under the desk.

Chris Gardner is a talented salesman who was rarely hired. In order to make a living, Gardner himself and a 5 - year - old son were driven out of their San Francisco apartment, but they could not go anywhere. When Gardner was an internship at a famous stockbroker, he and his son endured many difficulties, such as pursuing a life in a shelter and a better life dream.
