Something For the Next Generation
Ever since I decided to start this business, I had a goal in mind to teach my sons the principle of hard work. As I see them grow up I recognize the my lack of control in the things around them. Their school, the workplace, society in general is more and more unpredictable. With the recent shootings in Las Vegas, it proved to me one thing. I really need to be around my sons a lot more. I did not want to create a business that took more time away from my family. So the next best thing was to include them in the journey. In preparing my business plan I realize my mission statement was initially focused on making money. I now see another purpose. I plan on using the business as a teaching aide to propel my sons future with intangible but useful tools. Things like hard work, consistency, persistence, financial awareness, and money management. Sometimes the best way to teach a child to swim is to throw them in the pool. Immediately they learn how cold the water is and how to hold their breath. It leaves a lasting impression on them and they expect it next time they go swimming. Same thing with mobile detailing. My sons love cars but they have not idea how to take care of them, how to appreciate all the engineering and design gone into the body and paint. The curvature of the hood to make it more aerodynamic, or the size of the tires to make it stick to the road. They can't experience those things unless they touch it, hold it, wash it, take care of it. My purpose is clear. My intentions are even clearer. I know what to do and it starts right now.
