Entrepreneurial Parents: Equip your teens with the confidence they need

In the age of instant communications and social media, our youth are bombarded by countless influences. Which ones are helpful? Which ones are potentially damaging?

What future do we seek for our sons?

Parents, while you want the best for your son, perhaps you do not feel you have been able to provide him an environment to build himself up to be a strong, confident man one day.

You want the best for him, but you are wondering what you can do to give him the best.

Providing for your family at odds with providing your son the confidence he needs to thrive?

We have met with dozens of parents and children, and there is a common thread. Parents often do not have a lot of time to provide the extended attention their son needs, and as children enter adolescence, a 2022 Stanford University study showed that teens are biologically wired to disregard their parents' guidance and instead pay attention to other voices.

Role models are incredibly important. Highly confident and successful role models such as Jim Rohn, who famously said, "You are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with," and Grant Cardone, who responded by saying, "You are the average of the 5 actions you take every day," have helped make clear our sons would benefit immensely from being around others who are consistently carrying out positive actions.

What sets us apart is our focus on supporting entrepreneurial parents in the process of supporting their children. Most entrepreneurs entered business life to obtain freedom, but they often find themselves time poor. At Young Mavericks, we take the statistics to heart and have created a program acknowledging this time and energy deficit.

OUR APPROACH

Our 5-Step Success Formula On

How Teenagers Can Go From Lack of Clarity To Unbreakable Confidence

Step 1: Master Your Money

Money management is a powerful skill. Here, you’ll learn to track your earnings by assigning value to your activities, whether it’s completing tasks, reading, or learning. Your actions have real value—start small, but think big.

Step 2: Add Value Beyond Yourself

Success isn’t just about personal gain; it’s about making a difference. Go beyond your responsibilities by helping others, whether it’s assisting a teacher, helping a neighbor, or supporting your family. Leaders contribute to their communities. Real fulfillment and purpose is found by serving others.

Step 3: Master Time Management

Your time is your most valuable asset. Learning to manage it effectively will help you balance school, hobbies, friends and personal growth.

Step 4: Get Moving

Physical fitness fuels both your body and mind.

Commit to at least 20 minutes of exercise each day. It could be a workout, sports, or even a walk—whatever keeps you active and energized.

Step 5: Explore Your Passion

This is for YOU! What do you want to commit to, learn, or get good at over the next 90 days? Write it down, and spend at least 15 minutes a day doing it. Want to get better at a sport? Practice it! Want to learn a language? Practice it! Whatever it is, make it happen.
