"How do you encourage young children to have the entrepreneurial mindset?" Well… you can get them a cool book about starting a business! Sounds like a good plan, only this genre doesn't really sound very appealing to kids. Oh! How about sending them to one of those fancy, super rare business schools? Yeah, this would work EXCEPT your state probably doesn't have one OR it's too far and too expensive to send your child / children there. So, what's a parent to do to get their children interested in flipping their life in an amazing and non-traditional way?! 2 words... BY EXAMPLE. Think about it! Children, by default, look up to their parents and want to do what they're doing. "But why? Being an adult is boring and monotonous." This is where it gets awesome, y'all! Kids are absolutely fascinated by everything we do. They think we're this super high leveled person who CAN DO ANYTHING -- AND THEY'RE RIGHT. So show the budding entrepreneur in your life that you are a dedicated action taker. Because the fastest and easiest way to encourage your kid-entrepreneur to take that next step toward pursuing their online business dreams (or achieving anything in life for that matter) is for them to see YOU TAKE CONSISTENT ACTION. Put yourself out there. Be passionate and compassionate! Do better than you did the first time, every single time. Have faith and take courage to act on your goals and dreams. When YOU show your kids what TAKING PERSISTENT ACTION does, they'll be less afraid to take action themselves. So, help them find what they're good at, hold their hand and take the journey with them, it will be a good bonding experience for both parent and child (or children). Online business is for everyone. Online business isn't just for adults, kids can be just as successful online too! Which brings us to our guest this week and what she is hoping to build with her triplets. We have strong-willed, widowed single mom of 11-year-old triplet girls, with over 20 years of accounting experience, Regina Drury. Regina has 2 bachelors degrees, one in business management and another in accounting, and also an MBA. Her husband passed away when the girls were just 3 years old, and for most of the girls' younger years, she had to overcome so many struggles personally and financially as a single parent. The triplets are almost teenagers now and Regina is determined to build a sustainable income online so she can be more present in her children's' lives, especially since they are in their formative years. Now, Regina isn't new to the online business scene, she has tried several times to generate income online. First, she had the Biz Geek Podcast that geared towards finding other geeks in the business space and create a place where they could chat about business and their geek passions while being this community. Awesome as it is, it, unfortunately, did not generate her income. Then she briefly did a podcast for parents of multiples and had hopes of starting something with that, but that didn't gain much traction either. Though she does have much experience in accounting, it isn't something she is very passionate about, but was more of a necessity through the years. After one of her girls got diagnosed with thyroid cancer, there's now an even greater urgency to be physically there for her triplets. But don't worry! The apple… err… the apples didn't fall far from the tree! The kids are as passionate and tenacious as their mother, in that they, too, want to start their own online business together. So, join us in this week's episode as we help Regina find her momentum and help her girls start, build and grow their online business as a family. If you have a kid (or kids) that you want to encourage to become an entrepreneur… or if you ARE wanting to be an entrepreneur yourself, then don't miss this great podcast interview!
