He even fulfilled his dream of becoming a director with the recent blockbuster film A Quiet Place. Who would have thought that Krasinski could create such an epic masterpiece?
Despite his various endeavors and a hectic schedule, Krasinski has found the time to continue his education from Brown University, recently graduating from the prestigious institution and even giving a heartwarming commencement speech in front of all his fellow graduates. It was during this speech when Krasinski revealed the real reason behind his successful career.
The Revelation
As Krasinski stepped on the stage to give his Baccalaureate address, he imparted some extremely useful advice to fresh graduates in order to help them succeed in their careers.
But the actor didn’t forget to share his own success story and how he became a prominent actor. Krasinski also makes sure to credit this bizarre group that became the reason behind his successful career.
Krasinski revealed that he didn’t really know he has a talent for acting when he was younger. But everything changed when he joined the university’s sketch comedy group where he was able to connect with peers and join a community of diverse entertainers.
The Inspiration
He became intrigued after his friends and colleagues encouraged him to try acting. Despite his lackluster skills as a newbie, they remain supportive of him and eventually helped him discover his potential as an actor.
Krasinski’s inspiring speech was a way of extending his gratitude to the university and how it played a crucial role in shaping his career. The actor told the students to keep believing in their dreams and to never give up on them.

His Secrets To Success In Life
Aside from his inspiring baccalaureate speech, Krasinski also shares his secrets to having a successful career and life.
Krasinski is a firm believer in the phrase “health is wealth,” which is why he makes sure to exercise religiously and eat healthy foods despite his hectic schedule.
According to him, you’ll be unstoppable if you’re in good health. If Krasinski’s sick, he ends up missing some of his appointments, projects, and endorsements. It ultimately leads him to miss out on golden opportunities.
