Dan Martell - Kids should be allowed to start a business

00:00:00.000 Every time I try to start a business, they're convinced it's not going to work.

00:00:03.300 How can you convince my parents?

00:00:05.280 They won't let you start the business?

00:00:07.020 Your parents are making decisions based on how you've been in the past.

00:00:10.980 The problem is you're not the same person this month than you were last month because you're growing.

00:00:14.620 But my parents still treat me like I'm a kid.

00:00:16.740 Is it their fault?

00:00:18.200 No.

00:00:18.720 When I was in my 20s and my dad would second guess every decision I ever made,

00:00:22.460 I didn't get mad at him because I realized he only remembers the teenager he used to get in trouble all the time.

00:00:27.560 I got to a place where I realized nobody has to change for me to win.

00:00:31.600 So right now you hope your parents would change.

00:00:33.540 What if you just accepted the fact until you show them consistency and show them you're winning,

00:00:38.760 they'll always remember you as the person you were last year.

00:00:41.300 My friends don't have to change.

00:00:43.180 My parents don't have to change for me to win.

00:00:45.340 They don't need to give you permission.

00:00:46.660 You know the only person you need permission from?

00:00:49.780 Oh, dude, you got it.
