Brad Pitt says becoming a father is the best thing he ever did.

The actor - who has three adopted children, Maddox, Pax Thien and Zahara, and a biological daughter with lover Angelina Jolie - believes fatherhood is his greatest achievement yet.

Brad said: "Fatherhood is the best thing I ever did. It completely changes your perspective, and it certainly takes the focus off yourself. You know, you can write a book, you can make a movie, you can draw, paint a painting, but having kids is really the most extraordinary thing I have ever taken on."

The 43-year-old actor has also revealed he puts pressure on himself to succeed at everything he does in life, and is constantly striving to perfect his movie performances.

Brad explained: "I'm always critical of myself, but I think it's a healthy criticism. I just think, 'What can I do to make it better in the future?' But also, 'What works?'

"It's a constant study, I think, film and acting."

I am a father of two vibrant young boys. It is no easy thing it is really a big responsibility, hence a great achievement. I am now even more proud of my father for his achievement with us siblings. Cheers to all you fathers out there.

I came across an entreprenurial site I want to share with you, the Young Entrepreneur Society from the www.YoungEntrepreneurSociety.com. A great documentary about successful entrepreneurs.

Brad Pitt is one of the most extraordinary fathers out there. As a girl who is growing up with the knowlege that her father is a deadbeat, I truly admire and respect him. He is not only a gifted actor, but I melt when I hear him talk about his children. It makes me glad to know that there are fathers out there who care about their children. I love him and respect him more as a father, an actor, and a loving human being. I love you, Brad.
