Shaun Stenning said, "Inventors, business owners, and corporate superstars who reshape and remake companies are some of our strongest cultural heroes. They reflect an essential part of the American story—the story of the average person who sees an opportunity, seizes it, and in the process creates something new." But what do these entrepreneurs share? What qualities or ways of thinking characterize the entrepreneurial mind, and can this type of innovative thinking be cultivated in others?

Shaun Stenning asked,"Is your child is on the verge of moving out and living on their own. Are they prepared?" Given how important financial skills are to navigating life, it’s surprising that our schools don’t teach children about money. As a parent, however, you can teach your child important financial lessons — and you should. According to Shaun Stenning, “Arming them with the right personal finance knowledge will give them a strong foundation to go and achieve many of their life goals. If their understanding of personal finance is lacking, they could begin their independent life on the wrong foot (and they may even come back home).” “The sooner parents start taking advantage of everyday teachable money moments (for example, give a six-year-old $2 and let her choose which fruit to buy), the better off our kids will be.” Shaun Stenning said  Consider these ways that you can help your child build a base of financial knowledge before they move out. 1.

Shaun Stenning said, " In our modern world, where many of us are in a constant state of ‘being too busy, it can be hard to find time for relaxation. And even if you do find the time to kick back and relax, how do you get that message to your brain? After all, it’s not easy to calm your mind after it’s been going at a mile a minute all day." But missing out on these all-important periods of total rest and relaxation can have dire consequences. Day-to-day stress can soon become chronic and feelings of anxiety may begin to take hold. According to Shaun Stenning, “It’s utterly important for our wellbeing and state of mind to take steps to switch off and spend quality time doing something you enjoy at the end of a long working day as not doing so can take a toll on your mental and physical health.” “What’s more, lack of relaxation harms your immune system, meaning that you’ll be more prone to colds, infections, and other common complaints.” Shaun Stenning said.  This is why it’s i...
