Kids = Entreprenuers

Do this if you want your kid to grow up with an entrepreneurial mindset. When I'm driving my son to school in the morning, I don't let him play on his phone. Instead, we talk about a product or a solution to a problem that exists in the world. This morning we had two. The first one was a drone that you deploy off the roof of your car.

That shows you why there's a slow down ahead of you, so you know if I need to turn right or left or get around and act. I thought that was a cool idea he came up with. The other one is a countdown clock, like a shot clock on lights, so when the light is green, it shows you how much longer you have on the green goes to yellow, goes to red when you should stop, and then the other way is doing the same thing.

It's at red, counting down to green. I thought that was great. There's no doubt that people are already doing both of these things out in the market, but the fact that my son and I were able to walk. Through this this morning, talk about it and have a moment and live in the moment instead of having him just sit next to me on his phone, I think is invaluable.

And I recommend it to anyone that wants their kid to get this critical thinking habit down as they leave home and go out in the world. So that's my advice.
