 is still in the morning and we're still feeling some type of good. You can still find us on Facebook, on Twitter, hashtag. It's what you see in the morning. Who are you crushing on, by the way? Are people stopped crushing as soon as COVID hit? I don't know. But I hope you're maintaining social distance. I hope you're washing your hands with running water and swapping. I hope you're wearing a mask in public spaces. I just hope you're okay. Right? We care about you. We need you around. Be good to yourself. So we are asking a question. What happened when you were younger? What did you want to be when you grew up? And what happened? When you confess, you are a rogue. And I left right up and down in the center. Let us know about your experience. Give us your two cents. And previously, we were trying to figure out, is it us who do not trust the process or is it that the process does not trust us? Guys, what do you think? I think the process does not trust us. I didn't see that coming. Because I feel like there are better ways to incorporate learning alongside talent. There are more efficient ways we see in other countries. Let me, I know about football, so let me talk about it. In high school, you want to be a pro footballer. You still have to go through the normal hectic eight hours of school and then have your small session of one hour later. That will never help. Setting up more academies, which are just football the whole day, and a little bit of basic learning and stuff, that will help the footballers grow. That will help them understand much more about this football and also establishment of more talent-based learning centers, which are a bit less in this country. And also having teachers specialized, not only in their subjects, but also specialized in other things, other careers for these kids, so that they may be able to learn more than history, physics, and chemistry. They can learn modeling at the same time in school. They have lessons for that swimming. They put more into talent as they put also in normal and basic education. I like your zeal, but I think we are a bit far, because how many times have Sijuika officials come to check out our stadiums at 2 to 35? We are good. And there's nothing. We are very far. And that's how we've been pitoyed for hosting games. Yeah. How many times? And it will still go on and go on and go on. Hashtag is one morning. Also, COVID is here. We cannot even allow all students to go back to school because we don't have the capacity to incorporate social distancing in our... That's it. We are way far from that. What do we do now? How do we help ourselves? You just have to do it by yourself. Work on your own. If you feel like you can be good at modeling, do it at home. A couple of friends, because you won't find great facilities in this country which can really push your dream. So, you have to do it on your own. So, process, does it trust us? How many say we're not trusting it? I feel like both sides apply. So, I know they are there, but we just trust the process. And then let me say, apart from maybe saying the government, sometimes it's our own problems. Maybe in your family, everyone is a doctor. Your mom now wants you to be a doctor, biological, chic, nothing. So, I feel like, do you? Do you? If this is what you really want, just do it. You know, you're being forced to be a doctor. You know, sometimes we obey parents, but you forget, like, you have a future ahead of you. As in, they won't be there, your relatives won't be there, you know, it's just you in your future. So, those that, like, you just have to trust the process by yourself. Because nowadays, we want, it was a raka-raka. Maybe you're not happy. So, it's good people to, like, trust the process, even though you feel, at the end of the day, like, when I say manga, it just don't end up in tears. When you fail, you just get up, you just push, keep pushing. Yeah, you don't need the government or anything. You just need to trust yourself and trust God too. I once interviewed a guy who did KCPE primary for 13 years. A few years later, is it that we do not have the resilience? Is it that we, I can honestly tell you, there's some circumstances that hit me in life. I just want to go back to my mommy. Is it, is it that, is it that we're not taught to be tough? For me, at some point, I can blame the society because harmony, this guy is going county to county, I can end up after a visit. I mean, there's no one to help him really. That's not fair because sometimes I feel like I can blame the society because we need them, we need the society. I'm not, you know, because I can't do it alone. You need the society to be there to support you, to give you hope, like to bring you opportunities. In fact, I went to high school, he was big enough to look like one of the teachers, not one of the students. And he's still dead, by the way. And when I was interviewing him, he was not angry with anyone. Which is a good thing. Come on, you know, he made it. That's why I said, don't let failure stop from moving on, from pushing on, even when you are alone. That in terms of now, I call most formalities. That's great resilience. Can you imagine all those premium tears he cried? That means a whole generation of his friends have come and gone, just like that, just like that. His age mates are ending just like that, just like that. And you know how kids can be cruel. What, what, who, am I anything that comes into their mouth? Why? Why, why, why? So are we not built like that? Is it something that we need to look into? Amma, was it by force? Did he have to do KCP? Me, Muleza, was it by force? Did someone tell you? Have they said, no, but it was my goal and that's what I wanted. I don't know, I don't recommend. You are not saying anything. Okay. I think 13 years is only me and his son. I feel like, I feel like I should have been a part of the opportunity, because 13 years, okay, he only has resilience, but he has an unheard of. You know, 13 years, KCP, he's more like, my friend. Yeah, so imagine 13, but the level of resilience, you know, it doesn't have to be 13 years, like the moment you start doing it, put in everything you're doing, okay, and try to make the time frame a bit shorter. Okay. And if the society, the people around you aren't helping you, you know, they don't help. Sometimes, sometimes your family members, they heap too much pressure on you, negative pressure, oh, we are ASEANRA, oh, we are SOMI, and that also does not help you. If they turn that negative pressure into positivity, they put in funds to help you, they show you places, they talk to you in great ways, you know, that also helps limit that time frame, you know, taking that 13 years to two, three, you know, not necessarily of KCP or anything, but anything you want to do, you know. The society around you, the people around you, also need to, as she said, they need to hold your hand and you need to work along with them, work together, and in the long run, with all that help, you will achieve your goals. So we also had someone else on our social media page at WIPI from Facebook commenting and said that he wanted to be on TV the first, first time, but his family kind of twisted him a bit, knocking at something to do with being a health worker and all these things, but and his intent now is to be on all TV stations, ministering and all these things. Do you think that's also a factor? Because he said he was very good all four years of high school and he was reporting news and all these things, which is a fantastic way to be proactive, but then suddenly, you know, yeah, is it a thing? Are we afraid to have our own opinion because it's not to say, literally already has a vision for us. Is it a problem? Is it a factor? Yeah, I feel like a lot of young adults, they fail because, you know, they lack the opportunity because this is what you have to do this. You know, you have to do it to do it. You know, it's up to you like maybe later in life, you can just give it to your parents, tell them, I feel like let that not stop you. Because you'll do something out of your career. At the moment, they'll be proud. Yeah, so let that not stop you. Do you think there's a pressure to have a title, to be doctor, to be engineer, is that pressure? Yeah, there is, especially from family members who already have these titles, you know, they also want you to have that title or you'll seem like a disgrace or something like that. But in our generation, people want to be different things, you know, things that our parents may not approve, you know, but I think parents, guardians or sponsors, whoever is giving that kid money to go pay his fees, they should also give them the full autonomy to watch. So 100% of everything you've got, you know, you go in, do that course with all your heart, but you can give it to someone who is an actor or journalist. I didn't want to be here but I have to do it. Yeah, so we let society parents, our kid have a title, our job as well. But they want to see you driving a Mercedes like them. But you can also drive that Mercedes with other jobs. There are a lot of jobs that don't have titles that can give you that. You look at music artists, journalists, they live like doctors and engineers, but they lack that title, like their names will just be if it's Ken and not Dr. Ken and but they live the same lifestyle. So there are many other jobs, apart from engineering, doctor and law, which there are great jobs also, I'm not putting them down on anything, but there are also other jobs which can give you a good lifestyle, which also require a lot of hard works, which are also essential. Is it hype? Do you think sometimes when we are growing up, we're very impressionable? So do you imagine that just because there are trends, for example, right now we are about to have more artists than fans? Are we together? So is that why maybe some people want to be artists because of the hype? Because some people say they want to be artists, they want to be famous, they want to be famous, they want to be famous. You know, you can't walk these streets just like that if you're like a Tumblr, you know, it's legit, it's a thing because you want to be where he is or you want to do what he's doing. You don't know how he got there or how long. Guys, when he used to have his songs, there's a whole story, he used to do it, he used to do it, he used to do it, he used to do it, he used to do it, he used to do it and now look at them and say, you don't know the process but you just want the end result. Is that a problem also? Let me say about the artists, I feel like in Kenya, right now, as in not all of them, there's some who are genuinely like the talent, want to be a musician, but I feel like a lot of them is maybe a pressure. Now I can't afford school fees, I can let me try music or something and that's where we go wrong. And that's where we go wrong, you know nowadays, there are ladies and gentlemen, at the end of your classes dropouts, you'll go and do hospitality, right now, you cannot do everything you want as long as you have your certificates, you know. I like that, but what happens when we want to be influencers in this year's series? Is that a thing now, is being an influencer a thing and is it okay if my baby wants? Mommy, I want to be an influencer when I grow up, I want to be a socialite. Is that okay? Because they are making money I guess, I don't know the bankrolls but I guess if it's a title and if we can host them on TV and that they speak sense I guess, so is it okay with you, if you're a younger one, if you're a niece, your nephew wanted to be a socialite? I think all this came about social media, Instagram, and the way people these days just do about anything to bring that attention to them, if I had kids I wouldn't want them to take that direction. See now have we just not said that we should allow people to follow their dreams? Okay, we should, but why? But now, this is my kid, I'm talking about he's still like, let's say 18 and below, he's still my kid, you know, my child, I need to take care of him and when he's 18 he can do anything that he wants, you know, but under me 18 and below are some things I want to allow him to do, obviously, obviously. That one statement has negated everything No, I mean, like everything I was saying, I mean, when you get to university, that autonomy should be there. Obviously, you go through primary school and high school, you'll have to do them because that's the education system in this country. But aside from that learning, when you come out, there are other things, your kids, they'd want to do them because of this exposure and stuff, but they aren't necessarily right for the younger kids to really go into them. We've been seeing the past weekend how how teenagers have been explosive, you know. Yeah, and I think going forward, we should really limit social media and what they see on it and and some types of influences. That's that's the biggest fear any parent will have at the moment, you know. So I'm not saying it in a bad way. Anyone who's an influencer can keep on doing their thing. But if it's a kid, a child, you should really limit what she's or he sees on social media because it goes a long way. I think that's a bit tough, especially for this generation, that two-year-olds who know how to use a tab. Yeah, me and I was two years old, I think, but I'm gonna call it a changa, guys. Really, I have marks, guys. Evidence of our well-lived childhood. But right now, people know how to open tabs. They know how to go to YouTube. Where's the line? Where do we say this is not good and this is okay? Hey, she knows how to pose. She wants pictures all the time. She wants all these. It's okay. You have to work with your kid because a lot of parents really don't. Hey, Instagram, you have to take that thing with your baby, he likes football, she likes dancing and stuff. You start molding your child. I never raised you like this. But at the end of the day, part of her being like that is the parents' fault because maybe they never cared. You don't know how she's doing, you don't know her favorite subject. It's all started with the parents. It's up to them to learn their kids, to make sure they pursue something they like. You have to be strong to be able to influence them with negative energy, social media. When you raise them good, they'll be good kids. Do you think that maybe perhaps at some generation, not to be exposed to the things that are out there? I think I'm still growing up, guys. But when I was younger, you either had to be a doctor, you had to be a lawyer, you had to be... So it was just these things. And you felt like a person that you needed. Like you were too chalazima. Come as Tafanyi, I wouldn't be useful in society, you know? Kazizam kono at the time wasn't something that you would look forward to doing. But what if Tuambia want to hire? By the way, you can go to media, you can do IR, see what was there. You can go into sports, you can be a professional analyst, did you know that you can be a consultant, did you know, did you know, did you know. Is it perhaps maybe we didn't know, so we wanted to be things that Dania took what matters. Yeah, it's true that we didn't know, but Dania said we didn't know what was there. I think with the life we're living in, social media, as much as there's a lot of negativity going on, you know, reading stories these days, you see a lot of stories how people have really come up from zero to nothing and they inspire you. And also, influencing in a good way, you can be an analyst, you know, just Instagram, okay, you're doing your other acting, you have your business career, but on Instagram you break down sports, modeling, you music, you know. That's the, it's one of the two, poor social media in my letter and we can put more light into it, you know. And also these days, you see a lot of girls, especially girls, I know about girls, they go on social media, they don't need to, they show people their makeup tutorials, you know, they show people their businesses, you know. Those are the great things that social media has done to our generation, you know, and also like the generations coming after us to also experience it, to use it as a platform, to build themselves, to maybe make their dreams come true because you can also realize, oh my, I can't be a footballer, but I can be an analyst, you know. I can be someone who does these vintage videos for football and stuff. There are a lot of things you can do in social media, Instagram, Twitter, that we did not know before, like when I was in from one, from two, but when we finished high school, it all became clear and we see a lot of people embracing these days. That's a really, that's a big plus for our generation and everything. My favorite thing about the past decade in terms of creativity is things that didn't make sense before, making sense now. I don't want to talk about graphic design or what. Back then, in fact, you have that calling inside you, look at people now, look at a whole enterprise to that whole Churchill enterprise. That's oposs, it's feeding people, oposs, it's buying people Mercedes, oposs. That's my favorite thing about this past decade. They've shown us, you don't really, now what, I don't know the background, all of them, but I am aware that some of them went to school, like, basically what we want to find out before now, we realize we opened it up for them, said, by the way, it's a tool that means it can be used well or misused, but it's a tool either way. And now we have some more of your thoughts at What The Phone Facebook, quite far for our channel on Twitter. Hashtag is one in the morning. We have a Bernard pass, says wanted to be able, a lawyer, but I did accounts, now I'm an actor. Note, I did not attend the school of editing and camera from wiki. Okay, we're going to talk about this now, bitch. I wanted to study business management and medical, but my dream was cut off with my own mom when I was in class seven. Second time it was my last, last to go to school. Oh, I'm sorry, sweetie. Good morning. How are you? When we have good time, but we also have good time constructively in the morning at What The Phone Facebook. Okay, I like this because sometimes we want to put blame somewhere, but you know, it could just be life, it could just be circumstance. I have interviewed a couple of artists who've told me they started in music, but maybe their caregivers passed on or something happened, and then they had to stop everything and just feed the family. And then when they grew, grew, grew, now he came back, or they came back too. So guys, things happen. And man, James, our star student, I knew that I'm the greatest artist of all time. Now see my life, who not even far from the best. Life is so cheesy. Jesus come and rescue me. I beg. All right. I'm a G-Man. Oh, my cheesy. Me, by tour seven, I have a plan for a surgeon. In 2010, I went to the doctor. In 2015, I went to a nurse. In 2020, I worked. Tell me something else. In 2020, I started. Oh my gosh. Okay. So in concluding, because I don't know why time is running away. Okay. The last thing I'm going to say before you guys, I want you to conclude very shortly is we have had that phenomenon that is Yego. Yego said it. So please don't feel that you need to be in an institution. And our friend here on our Facebook page who said, but now is in editing and filming and all these things. And something that is self taught. So there's some things that will not allow you to sleep at night. Do, do, wake up and do. Okay. Guys, help me finish this. I want to say, everyone who's watching us will watch that it's you. You know, as she said, teach yourself things in this day and age. You can, you can afford that. YouTube is free. You just need wife or bundles. Teach yourself things. If, if you are doing what your parent or society or whoever wants you to do, you can also do the other things that will be taught by mostly it's Indian guys on YouTube. Follow them, learn about it. If you want to be an editor, try to, you can kill two birds with one stone and also determination and hard work and your dreams will come true. All right, so here you are. The hard work, who once hurt it, who once tried and like no human is limited. So we just keep trying. Someone tried for 13 years and now they are able to achieve their goals. So don't stop. Don't, don't, don't, um, things will work out just their own time. Everything a step at a time. Yeah. I like that. I recently became a fan of Adeloniangos, uh, what's it called podcast, Legally Clueless. And in one of the sessions, Kaguay, uh, not Meshimiwa, no, not uncle Corona, the other one that we are used to Kaguay. He said, you're always where you're supposed to be at any given time. So don't, guy, please just be good to yourself. Be gentle. All right. Don't, don't stress yourself from the inside. So when it comes out, just be good to yourself. Be, be kind. The process is you. Okay. You're the one growing. Be easy. Be easy and, and work smart. Not all the time hard. Okay. Zed, Facebook, Twitter, hashtag is wearing the money. Thank you so very much for taking this ride with me. It has been amazing. We have a repeat scheduled at two p.m. All things remaining constant. And guess what? Couldn't find the money in the cash or panzaya hip hop. But we do insist that you have an amazing rest of the week and day. Yeah. Bye.
