“Success in America is definitely defined by how much money you’ve made, not by how happy you are with your life.”
That’s a quote from a young girl in the trailer for The Race to Nowhere, an interesting and relevant view of what we are doing to our kids in the name of helping them to be more successful. The trailer is 3 minutes long and worth watching.
“We live in a society today where you have to smart, but you also have to be pretty, but you have to do sports, you have to be involved in arts, and amongst all that you have to find something unique about yourself and you have to know yourself because if you don’t know yourself before you do all that, you’re going to lose yourself.”
