He believes that he will be able to make a fortune by selling those scanner machines. He is bitter because he cannot sell the remaining machines. His wife has become cold to him. The reason is that he was unable to meet his family’s financial needs. Gardner’s daughter leaves her town because she is not able to support the family. This is when he became a single parent. He is always strong because he only has Christoper as his dearest and most important person. He is accepted into the Dean Witter Reynolds program as an intern without salary after his wife has left him. To get hired at Dean Witter Reynold, he must be the best in a six-month internship. Gardner is evicted because he was unable to pay rent. As a result, he becomes homeless. The darkest period of Gardner’s life is when he was homeless, but he tried not to let his son see his sorrow. While he works as an internship, he does not forget his fatherly role and the importance of selling his leftover machines to help them survive.
In The Pursuit of Happiness, it is shown that hard work and determination can help you overcome obstacles in your life. Gardner is an example of this, as he never stops selling machines to hospitals. Even though Gardner was homeless and bankrupt, he never lost hope.
This film reveals the problems of poverty and insecurity in financial terms that exist today. But motivation and determination could solve the problem. Determination is a powerful tool that can help someone overcome their darkest moments. Gardner’s motivation comes from his son. He wants his sons to know his father. In order to achieve one’s dreams, hard work plays an important role. Gardner’s drive and motivation can bring depressed audiences to life. The movie shows how financial issues can be resolved by a great deal of determination, despite the obstacles that may arise. The film also teaches the importance of a person’s dream and motivation. So, life is not wasted.
Financial problems in the film can also lead to family disputes. Linda Gardner, Chris Gardner’s wife, is forced to leave Gardner due to financial instability. Ironically, poverty is still a problem for many families today. The best solution is to not leave the family and move to a new economy. The problem will not be solved, but new ones will arise. In other words, the children are neglected because their parents do not play a perfect role. Due to the fact that the film is based upon a true story, it was impossible to avoid the scene where Linda leaves, which affects both the emotions and the overall story.
Gardner patiently faces a first-impression that causes a mistreated attitude. Gardner’s office manager is always asking him to buy unnecessary things, such as a doughnut or coffee. This portrays Gardner being unappreciated and underrated. Socializing is all about first impressions, but this does not give people the right to treat anyone badly.
This movie could inspire people. It is a good movie for anyone who feels that life is unfair and is unthankful.

Happiness comes from what we think and what we pursue.
