Life lessons we get from Scarface.


Scarface is arguably one of the most intriguing characters that mafia movie genre has presented on screen.What makes him so fascinating is surprisingly how well put together although criminal his mindset was.Larger than life Tony Montana has no doubt left us with many life lessons we can learn from,don't believe me here is a list of moments from Scarface that Tony left us to learn something from his machismo and bold character.

Believe in yourself even if you're a nobody.

What is Scarface if not a story of a nobody from dirt of Cuba realizing the American dream.Tony Montana knew he had it in him right from the beginning even when he was a nobody,the attitude of a man that makes him a somebody. 



Man of his word and guts of a beast.

What you got in this world if not for your word.Well that's what makes Tony so interesting,even though a punk Montana is a man of his word.As far as guts go,do I even need to say anything,the man is a living definition of courage in flesh and bone.



Seize your opportunities,don't let them go. 

Knowing it when the irons hot and striking it hard is what gives us some of our greatest breaks in life.How many times have you been too lazy to act even when you knew its your game time.Tony sure does know his time and he seizes it well,not passing it on for some other punk.




Money gets shit done,you better be chasing it!

No matter what people got to say,money does come above most factors in life.Only a fool might not have money among his top priorities.Tony knew money could get him all chicas,champagne,flash well what more can a man ask for!




Learn to read people right.

We live in a deceitful world,full of two faced punks.To be able to know the true nature of men does prove to be a critical skill in life.Well Tony has the trick for it,to quote Tony Montana himself; "The eyes chico,they don't lie"




Be clear of your ideals and principles and have the guts to act for them. 

A man without principles is hardly a man at all.Be clear of your ideals.Well thats not just enough yet.You might have to grow a pair to actually live up to it.Just like Tony did.He didn't think twice before going against anything that stood in way of his ideals although as limited they might be.




Never give up,fight till the end.

No matter what the odds of success,the idea of failure should not find way to your mind.Only losers let such frivolous ideas play them for good.Be Tony when it comes to this,he didn't think of failure when it all came down.Well whats the worst that can happen with this attitude you win or you loose giving everyone a fight to remember and end up with a rich experience in life,well that sounds like a win-win to me.  




THE WORLD IS YOURS!

You can be anything imaginable,no matter how wild and impossible it might seem.Never stop dreaming,believing and working.After all "THE WORLD IS YOURS".
