Its amazing the amount of time this generation spends on social media, reality shows that are anything but real and just being preoccupied with things that don't profit. I have got parents that are both in their sixties and if you have a conversation with them, they are always thinking investments, expansions, acquisitions and it amazes me how they are continually bursting with ideas even at their ages.
Last week I sat down with this lady in her late 50s who never had formal education but she founded a start up IT company about 12 years ago from scratch which she later sold for $8 million dollars. She is so diversified and actually consults privately for different businesses. However when I have conversations with some younger individuals, the reverse is the case. I always wonder, this is a young person who should be filled with passion and bursting with ideas and ready to take on the world but No! Rather we are ready to take on the latest trends, personal development is at an all time low and what seems to interest quite a large number of people is to watch other people play out false hood through media. There is a time for everything and you are responsible for your own development.....
