PAPERPLANES: The New Millennial American Dream


Listen Later

Over the past few years it seems every celebrity has been spotted with a Roc Nation hat on. From Jay Z, Fabolous, Meek Mill, DJ Mustard, and Justine Skye all the way through Victor Cruz, CC Sabathia, and Justin Bieber.  Surprisingly though, Emory says they never asked any artist or athlete  to wear the hats. Though he knows they could have asked at any point  they never wanted to put anyone in a position where it seemed they were  taking advantage. In Emory’s mind it was a conflict of interest asking  to promote the hats. He saw it as something where if they made the right  thing, and got people to respect it then they would not need to ask.  And that is exactly how things have worked out.

The paper plane teaches us to imagine, to dream, and to be persistent.  The goal is to embed those values into people so they are inspired to do  more. The paper plane is about mentally getting somewhere before you  physically do. Article credit Huntington Post.
