In raising street smart children, we will necessarily need to go outside of the normal and traditional and start building their personal brands. The era of people just studying to be employable is long gone. Listen to this.

To raise street smart children is to teach them some aspects of entrepreneurship. Part of this involves being responsible for projects. They ideate and go through a project that they can be proud of by themselves. This should be part of their lives, not just a one off. Listen to this.

There is nothing wrong with teaching our children theory...at least for now. I have a feeling that with time, it will be the most useless thing to do, especially with changing technological abilities. One thing we then need to make sure that they are adept at is problem solving. Listen to this.

๐ข New #Podcast!! 1598. Why Entrepreneurship Must Be COMPULSORY in Kindergarten All Through #Purpose #Entrepreneurship
And I mean it. The problem with us is that we think all that can be learnt must be theory and must be examinable. We think that learning is about principles and concepts. I believe that we do life daily entrepreneurially...and yet this is the most neglected skill to be imparted in young ones. We instead make Maths and Sciences compulsory and more than half of the population will never use that knowledge in life...listen to this.

When I asked a top journalist in the country his opinion on the subject matter, he said that he would rather have both street smart and book smart people around him. Now, we have no problem with churning out book smart people. What we need is to champion street smart ones. Listen to this.

One of the worst things we can do for our children is to feed them with theories without necessarily showing them how to make connections of things in the world today. A street smart person knows the power of connections. Listen to this.

This is perhaps one of the greatest pillars of raising a street smart person: teaching them how to make the most of connections in life.
