Dream BIG – Salman Khan – #Entspresso


good morning believe nation today’s
message is dream big over to you Sal
Khan go you know if I um and I and I
used to be kind of quiet about this
dream because it seemed kind of like a
crazy thing maybe you know you even last
year would seem crazy for me to say what
I’m about to say but now I think there’s
a potential for you know right now
online learning no one takes it see it
seriously they think it has value but
they don’t the online learning is here
and your prestigious universities are
over here they’re not in the same
conversation I’m hoping Khan Academy can
turn into an institution that I don’t to
say rivals but it’s talked in the same
conversation as some of these things
that have been around in their places
where you can learn in the places where
you can learn and at a very high level
so you could start at arithmetic but you
can go deep and it’s a real learning
experience it’s not something
superficial I think it’s important that
entrepreneurs have big dreams I think
that’s what keeps you going is what
keeps you motivated it keeps you excited
brings people on with you right if
you’re just doing an average thing
you’re trying to be an average company
you’re just trying to make sales people
don’t want to join that right people
want to hop on a mission right they want
to feel like they’re doing something
important I look at this business trying
to dance salsa here right most people
look at that and say hey okay you got to
get more students into the school and
that’s great yes it’s part of our
businesses we need to get more students
but i’m drinking bigger right I want
this to be a tourist attraction I think
most retail stores are boring I look at
the other stores out here and they’re
all boring stores i go down Yonge Street
which is you know the biggest street
most famous street in Canada and most of
the stores are boring right I want
something interesting something
different I need to design my retail
space to be special right I want to
create an emotional reaction when
somebody walks by my storefront how do I
do that that’s what I’m working on I
want Taylor Swift to when she comes to
Toronto hurt or to come and take a dance
lesson at Toronto dance salsa right and
most people that’s crazy how you going
to do that it’s not even on their radar
because they’re just thinking within
this really small window right you got
to think bigger you got to have
something that motivates and inspires
you to build something amazing and
realize that you have the potential to
not only build something great for
yourself but have an impact and have a
ripple effect through the community so
don’t be afraid of your big dreams
because you have it and people tell you
you can’t do it you know I tell somebody
I want to have Taylor Swift come and
learn at Toronto dance salsa I people
gonna hit crazy Taylor so it’s not going
to come there right and I can either
accept their view and their limited
thinking or I can believe in my big
vision and go chase it and you have that
same choice too so the question that I
today is what is your big dream leave in
the comments below I’m curious to find
out I’m going to join in the discussion
thank you so much for watching have an
amazing day continue to believe and i’ll
see you again tomorrow morning for
another shot a vinspresso okay
