I can tell you, as an entrepreneur, two of my favorite allies are fear and failure. So it always, it always lifts me up and gets me closer to that even if I don't hit it exactly. But, I might hit here, which is better than you know what other people might aim for down here. And I always tell them, I'm like, if this is, you know, my big goal I might not completely hit that. And people are like, wow, those are really big goals. And we'll say just like in my own life, sometimes I'll do like a new project or something like that. Because when we encourage our kids to think superduper big, then there's always that risk of not achieving whatever you set out to do. Ty, what about failing or quote unquote, I don't want to call it failing, quote, unquote, failing at something. But I want to see if they'll adopt me.Įxactly. I would gladly turn over outside of going for PS or high school, whatever, whatever. I can't wait to see what those kids become in their future and like, that are experiencing the world in such a profound and broad way. I appreciate anyone that can get out of the, you know, the dynamic of what our culture says we're supposed to do, and just, you know, find their own way of, of living life. So, golf clap for those that family, I don't know who they are, but I'm certainly gonna go and follow them. I mean, that's the the greatest education happens in life when the sun is touching your face on whatever side of the planet that you're on, and the people that you're engaging with when you're doing that. Yeah, I don't think there's a greater education than the one that you get outside of the school walks. But that's just one example of them, encouraging their kids to think in a different way and to think as big as they possibly can. It's what you experience? And my husband, I watched it and we're like, could we do that? I don't know, could we, that would be really good to actually do something like that. And I'm thinking, Do you know what kind of education those kids are getting? Like they are seeing the real world? Because the real world isn't necessarily what you read on a piece of paper. And some people kind of question that, you know, they're like, oh, their kids aren't in school, or whatever. But they just they just experienced life. And for a while they had an RV that they were taking around. So they rented this boat, and they're living on a boat, but they would just go to different countries, and they would live in those countries. And they took their kids out of traditional school, I think it was like a couple years ago, and they have been traveling the world. It's so funny, you said that, because one of the things that my family likes to do, there is a family on YouTube, they have their own YouTube channel, and I'll give them a little plug here. And so yeah, having our kids dream big, is also aligned with having to live big. And, and, and allows them and us to get outside of what you just said in the hood when I was living in the project projects in the Bronx, get out of your 16 blocks, and get to see what's out there out into the world. And, and that's why I think it's so important for our children to get out, get outside, get trapped to travel and see the world.
And so you know, the more objective we have our children, the more open minded we have our children, the more we allow them to be creative, and forward thinking, the more they see the world for what it is, it's this big, beautiful, diverse place with so many scopes and landscapes of different foods and cultures and energy. And I think the more that we encourage our kids to dream, whether we provide them with books, or give them a sense of creativity, it allows them to kind of create their own universe, and, and, and be their own person to like, discover the planet their own way, you know, and there's 7 billion people on this planet, and none of us see the world quite the same. You know, I think in this day and age, when kids are so, so visually centric, whether it's YouTube, or Netflix, or, you know, video games, I think they're constantly inundated with images that they're given, as opposed to creating their own.
You know, oh, my gosh, that is such a big broad question. Why is that important? Like, you know, why do we want them to think as big as they possibly can? How does that help? But I'd love to hear your answer on this. So Ty, we all want our kids to think big, I'm kind of a obvious question.
He's a children's book author and a motivational speaker. And we want to pass that thought process that we have as adults on to our kids, right? Well, how do we do that? I'm Sonny with new mommy media. And just as we dream, we want our kids to dream as well. We all have big dreams, right? These big lofty dreams of ours that we want to accomplish in life.
