At 24, John Boyega has achieved more than most. Star Wars is just a piece of his growing resume, which includes Pacific Rim 2 and a drama based on the ’67 Detroit riots. The actor once described himself as a grounded and confident black man. It’s evident from his Instagram page filled with uplifting and entertaining quotes that this is true.
Boyega has worked hard for his success and believes you can do the same. Here are nine times he was the motivational speaker you needed.
1. He wants you to be the star of your own movie.
2. Don’t compare yourself to others. Be the best that YOU can be.
3. Never forget where you came from. He hasn’t.
4. What’s Instagram inspiration without a Mandela quote?

Effective action has a divine process and sometimes it starts with the simple things.
