in more creative ways and I encourage parents to do the same.

I like drawing, I've always wanted to do art, but I went to art class or had it at school

and the art teacher told me I didn't, wasn't very good so I should go and find out

anything else to do.

And pity, you know, it's fine things your children want to do and find a way to help

them to do it in a way that they can grow.

You know, even if they want to learn a musical instrument, help them learn a new instrument.

If they want to be creative, find a way that they can express that safely and encourage

them.

And because so much of our life, we spend patching up the things we're not good at and

it's a little of our life, we spend accelerating the areas we can excel at, that the sooner we

find those, start those and do that, acceleration, the more fulfilling life we'll have.
