Who Is Ashton Kutcher?

Who Is Ashton Kutcher?

Just who is Ashton Kutcher?  I have to admit that I only know him from Two And A Half Men.  I will also admit that while he is playing the role very well, I still miss “Charley”.  One can say that without Ashton (or is it Ashton?) the show would not be the same.  So tell me, do you know the answer to Who Is Ashton Kutcher?

Who Is Ashton Kutcher?

Since I only know him from the TV show, I have come to find that the show doesn’t do him justice!  He is really a good actor but that isn’t my point.  A lot of actors play characters that fit their personality.  While part of Ashton’s (?) character may be like him in a way, Ashton (?) is a much deeper person.

I came across this video clip today and it changed my who perception on Ashton Kutcher.  Listen closely and you will find out His Real NAME!!!

His real first name is Chris, Ashton is his middle name.

Ashton (I’ll stick with that) gave the audience three pieces of advice:

Opportunity:  ”Opportunities are like hard work.”  Every job he had was a stepping stone to the next job and he never quit a job before he had the next one.  Never feel like your job is beneath you.

Being Sexy:

The sexiest things being smart, thoughtful and generous. Everything else is just crap!  It’s just crap that people try to sell to you to make you feel like less but don’t buy it.

Living Life:

When you grow up, you tend to get told that the world is the way that it is. And that your life is to live your life inside the world, and try not to get in too much trouble, and maybe get an education, and get a job, and make some money and have a family. But life can be a lot broader than that when you realize one simple thing: that everything around us that we call life was made up by people that are no smarter than you. And you can build your own things. You can build your own life that other people can live in. Build a life. Don’t live one, build one.

I have to admit that Ashton just took a huge leap up in my eyes . . . he is way more than an actor!!

Who is Ashton Kutcher and What Can We Learn From Him!

I’m going to focus on his third message that comes from Steve Jobs.  It is so true and said in a much easier way than I have said it many times before.  Read it again and really think about it.

Everything around us that we call life was made up by people that are no smarter than you. And you can build your own things. You can build your own life that other people can live in. Build a life. Don’t live one, build one.

You do not have to live your life the way society expects you too!  You can even be a much more successful person if you don’t.  If you want to continue punching the time clock, day in and day out and you are happy doing so, then by all means do it!

But if you aren’t happy making someone else’s dreams come true while your sit by the wayside.  If you aren’t happy helping someone else get rich while you are living paycheck to paycheck.  Then maybe, just maybe you are ready for something different.  A different way to live your life, one of your choosing.  If that is so, then click the graphic below and learn about a way that you can earn a full time (plus) living while working (if you can call it that) part time.  Therefore having time to do the things you want to do, when you want to do it and where you want to do it!!
