Yesterday was no different. Yesterday, the 12th of August, Ohanian took to his Twitter handle, expressing his concern to his followers. He wrote, “I think one of the most important things I can teach Olympia is how to be bored. This is a muscle I’m really trying to help her exercise regularly.”

Scrolling through the social media handles of Ohanian, one can see how Olympia doesn’t shy away from finding the entertainment factor in everything he does. While it may be a positive sign for many parents, that isn’t the case with Ohanian. Going ahead in the Twitter thread, he opened up about the difficulties he faces in his quest to see Olympia getting bored.

“It’s also been really hard because there’s always something entertaining close by (screen or toy usually) and the most success I’ve had is when we go for walks around the farm, but even that is kinda fun (e.g., chickens!),” he wrote.

Ohanian is known for interacting with his fans and followers over his social media handles. This time was no different. Giving a brief about the problem, he left the floor open for ideas.

Ohanian hopes to find a solution soon

Considering the length of the Twitter thread, it is needless to say that the situation is much more important to Ohanian. Going ahead in the Twitter thread, he revealed one of the ways in which he makes Olympia put on her creative cap. However, he also admitted that he isn’t sure about its success rate. The result? He asked for help from a renowned parenting book and website, ‘Good Inside’.

He wrote, “I’m open to ideas — if she’d bored in the car I’ll suggest she design in her mind what she wants to build out of play-dough/legos when we get back… I can’t tell if it’s working though…help Good Inside.”

Many of his followers might wonder why Ohanian wants his daughter to be bored at an age where she should be enjoying every moment. However, the clear answer to the question was in Ohanian’s final tweet. According to the entrepreneurial giant, it was the sense of boredom that helped him strive for success. Needless to say, he wants to imbibe the same level of success in his daughter.

Ending the thread, he wrote, “My best ideas have come from when my brain can be in that flow state and just wandering / thinking / bored-but-not-bored. I want her to feel how awesome that is to tap into.”

Over the years, Ohanian has projected himself as a creative person, a quality that has clearly helped him in his professional growth. Do you think Olympia would feel the same level of boredom and use it to succeed in her life, or do you think she will find her own way to tap into her creativity? Let us know in the comments below.
