In this episode, Rich and Tyler discuss: 

  • Children learn just by watching their parents.
  • Tyler’s advice to his six years ago self
  • When do you feel alive?
  • Connections and relationships


Key Takeaways: 

  • Be a good example to your children. The majority of what children learn is caught, not taught.
  • You'll need to be more calculated as you go through your entrepreneurial career journey about the industry problem you want to solve and with whom you want to solve it.
  • You enjoy the journey more when you feel alive. But be sure to match it up with discernment so that it aligns with your purpose, what is worthwhile, and what you were created or meant to be doing or being.
  • You need people running in the same direction early on to get your idea from zero to one. Aligned interests definitely help align incentives.


“Pick the right direction, pick the right building you're going to build your ladder against.” — Tyler Baker
