I can afford to have four children and homeschool them, but today’s world is NOT designed to raise a family.
My wife and I are going against the grain of our generation. We have more children than the norm, and we raise our children ourselves instead of leaving this important task to strangers who don’t share our values.
You got the proof right there: 1,62 births per woman in the USA.. not even enough to replace the current generation.
With both parents now working, time is becoming increasingly limited. According to Google Trends, people are increasingly looking for a second job to make ends meet. Not good at all. Where is the time to take care of your kid?
Believe it or not, but when my children were enrolled in daycare two days a week, we heard several comments from parents who said, “Finally, some peace,” when they dropped off their children. Many of them would take their children to daycare when they were on vacation so they could have some peace.
I can’t even think of doing it.
That’s why I dedicated my life to achieving the vision I wanted. To be fully present for my children. To be able to show them life, my values, play with them, and give them the tools to face life once I’m no longer here.
For example, something I picked up from Ed Mylett at one of his conferences in Nashville. He told the story that every night before bed, he would “talk about” his children. Here’s a template:
‘’(Insert the name of your child) You are beautiful, you are strong, you have confidence in yourself, and you go for it even when you are afraid, you are appreciated, you have many friends, we are lucky to have you with us, and we love you very much. Later on, you will help a great many people. Good night’’
Ed explained that after a while, the children asked to talk about themselves before bedtime, and even mentioned that their friend had told them that their father never talked about them at home and how cool that was.
..And let me tell you that it is TRUE.
My kids are requesting the ‘’let me talk about you’’ tradition every night.
So I created the condition to do so?
I didn’t want to build the next Amazon or Google, no way.
I just wanted something I would be comfortable with, that would provide me with everything I needed and wouldn’t take up all my time like it did in the past.
Something I would be proud of and that would be for the long term. Not a trend or anything like that. I wanted a simple model that had leverage. That’s why I came up with the word :
‘’FAMPRENEUR’’
Family-first business. We sell to many, we use leverage, and we spend the majority of our time with our family.
It’s really simple. You only need three things:
Traffic, List, Offer.
