We Need More Entrepreneurial Children Like This One
From the time they are toddlers, many American children are inserted into organized activities. They are taught from the earliest stages how to fit into a mold and play according to the rules of systems constructed by others.
As a result, we at Intellectual Takeout worry that fewer children today are developing that creative and entrepreneurial spirit on which America was built.
That’s why it brought a smile to our faces when we saw this image that someone posted to Imgur today. It’s a plan for a dog walking business that the user found in his or her 9-year-old’s backpack. The image was titled “Solid business model.”
Let’s hope that we can do a better job of instilling this kind of spirit in more of today’s children. Let’s hope that more parents will help their children follow through on this spirit.
