The BEST Piece Of Parental Advice [24 Hour Clubhouse Room Takeover] 🚀

What's the one thing that your mother or father or guardian or grandparents taught you that has shaped your life or just completely changed your life? So the lessons that you learned from your parents or your guardians or your grandparents when you were growing up, that has just completely changed your life. Richard, if you could be so kind to start that off, that'd be fantastic.

Yeah, that's really, that's a really good question. And as you get older, which I am, slowly it's something you reflect on more interestingly. So I can pick three things, I think actually my grandfather, who was a First World War veteran of the trenches and Passchendaele and all that nastiness, his was always, don't complain, son, there's always somebody worse off than you. And don't ever drink your beer out of a dimple glass. It's always got to be a straight glass. So that's my grandfather, my mother. My mother was a very independent person who worked her entire life very hard, I think for very little at the end of it. And she taught me independence, I think, and the capacity to just pick up and run and do your very best. So that was good. My father, on the other hand, they're all dead by the way, so there's no chance of it coming back on me. My father was one of those people, I suppose of the, the old crew where children were seen and not heard. So it taught me to actually spend a lot more time with my kids and involve myself in their lives. So yeah, I think those, those three things have kind of shaped and molded me as the years have gone on. So amazing. There's always somebody, somebody worse off than me. Stand on your own two feet and pay attention to family life.

I love it. Thank you very much. And I never expected when I asked that question to have one from each, but I love it, really do love it. Jp, feel free to share. So anything that basically you have been the life lessons that have been taught by, you know, mum, dad, grandparent, whoever it may be.

Yeah, really interesting. So I'm not fortunate enough to have known my grandparents. All my so called wisdom, if you like, came from mum and dad. My dad always kind of said, just don't do anything that you don't love. So you gotta love what you're doing. And that's kind of where I followed the passion for music and architecture, the two things I loved as a kid. I didn't know it was called architecture. I just used to like drawing and designing buildings. But yeah, you gotta love what you're doing. Was the thing my dad's always said, and I suppose the other one kind of came from my dad as well, which is don't take no, I won't swear, but you know the word from nobody. Don't take no nonsense from nobody. Basically, if you know, he's kind of a. So my family are from Sicily. They then migrated to Glasgow of all places. So I'm the product of, of my father who is Scottish and his father who is Italian. And I think one thing that the Italians do well is they don't take no nonsense and they say it as it is. And then if you add in a Glaswegian on top of that, they also don't take no nonsense and they say it as it is as well. So two bits of wisdom there from my dad is love what you do and don't take no nonsense from anyone. There you go.

Fantastic, fantastic. What a lovely combination that is. Sean, if you are still with us, my friend, same question too.

Yeah, I've been debating on if I'm going to share or not because I don't really want to kill the mood. I will just say, in short, my parents weren't able to give any sort of life advice.

So.

Yeah, what? Not, not really. Not really a good childhood. Let's put it at that.

No, that's okay, buddy. I appreciate you. All right, so Adam, if you are with us, my friend, I know you've jumped in. I don't know if you've heard the question, but basically what we're asking is what life lessons did you pick up from either your mother, your father, grandparents, guardian, whoever it may be, around when you were growing up that's sort of changed your life and we've had, we've had some really cool, thoughtful answers. I just wanted, if you would like to share.

It's a really, it's a really interesting question, isn't it? I think. And everyone's, everyone's childhoods and upbringings are so diverse and different and I don't think there was any, I would say, any life changing lessons. I would say I had great inspiration from my grandmother who was a professional actress, did quite a lot of UK television and theatre and things like that. And you know, she always encouraged me and was the one that sort of guided me towards that route of performing. My mum and dad were brought up in pubs, didn't really have too much for financial education or anything like that. But if one thing I learned from them growing up in the sort of pub industry and things like that was that it's hard work and it's hard graft. So if I've learned one thing from them, it's how to work hard. Probably, probably not to the best and most efficient sometimes but. But good hard working ethics is, you know, I had a. As soon as I could go and work, I was, you know, going doing paper rounds and cleaning people's cars and. And as soon as I could get working in shops and things like that. So I've always had an interest in that. But mum and dad are always very, very supportive. Dad was much more of the be realistic kind of person, you know, very safe and mum was. Mum was more of the go and chase your dreams. So a good balance I would say I had there. So I count myself quite lucky.

Having a blast. Gonna get it on the Bruce Lee podcast. Bruce Lee like Bruce Lee. Cause it's so hard and the tea is loosely making up those rhymes. Don't write it, just do it loosely.
