Lewis Howes

Like, you didn't rob a bank.

You know what I'm saying?

Like, you haven't done anything illegal.

You did exactly what a good child should do.

And I have a daughter that I have to get on her sometimes because she's that child that's like, yo, dad, what do you guys want me to do?

She's obedient.

She's obedient.

I said, do me a favor.

Don't always be obedient.

You need to sit down and ask yourself, if you weren't thinking about the family's name, if Eric Thomas, E.T., the hip hop preacher, was not your father, what would you be doing?

What would you be doing if you didn't have to worry about honoring, you know, the dynasty?

And you do a phenomenal job of honoring this dynasty.

I'm not saying anything.

Went to school, handled your business.

You've never been in trouble before.

We've never had to spend money doing anything.

You've been a phenomenal child.

But what would you do if you live life on your terms and you were able to go where you want to do?

And so that's the first thing I would ask them to do.

I want you to think about your life instead of their life.
