It is also important to be so thoughtful that you have to grab the right opportunity at the right time when it comes by.  

4. The Pursuit of Happyness

The Pursuit of Happpyness is another motivational movie that you cannot miss. This story revolves around a middle-aged salesman who struggles in life to make both ends meet.

After this, he faced the most dangerous events in his life. From this movie, students can learn that you have to do your best even when life pushes you to a tight corner. This is the time when you will realize your true hidden strengths. 

6. Lean on Me

This is a movie based on a true-life story. The story is about a revolutionary teacher who served as a Principal in a High School and afterward got fired. The teacher then returns to this High School only to find his cause of failure. From this movie, students can learn that every organization needs a leader.

In the beginning, he was a tough teacher who used to ridicule his staff but as the movie progresses he learns from his mistakes and learns leadership skills. At the end of the movie, Joe Clark is a changed person who started working with the teachers and the students.

Conclusion:

Everyone needs a break from everyday life. What could be another way than watching someone else’s story? Motivational movies tell us how we can see situations from another person’s perspective. Another thing that makes students feel good after watching a movie is that there is a conclusion for most of the movies that we don’t always get to see in real life. Movies also broaden our minds to handle situations differently. Movies can also boost the morale of many students.
