In Search Of Heroes Members Program

Ralph Zuranski: Well, of course it’s the moms and dads first of all. The moms and dads are laying down their lives for the kids. The kids don’t even realize just how much sacrifice it takes for the moms and dads to go to work every day, and buy food, clothes and love the kids, and take a lot of the guff that kids give them.

Anybody who takes care of somebody that’s sick in their family is not only a hero, but a saint. The teachers, the coaches, the spiritual leaders, the priests, the pastors, all the different faiths, all the people that take that time and sacrifice fame, fortune and material possession and free time to make a positive difference in the lives of others.

The hand that rocks the cradle is the hand that rules the world.

Craig Perrine: That would absolutely be the case. First of all, a group that is often bashed is entrepreneurs in Hollywood unfortunately. You will always see the greedy business man that cause the environmental toxic spill and that is what business is about is making profits at the expense of the good guys in the story.

I am not going to deny that there are people out there doing things with their money and power that are not for the greatest good, but there are also tons of folks who are broke who are running around robbing, stealing and killing people. There are also wealthy people robbing, stealing and killing people, I just think that is a people thing.
If you’re a person who does that kind of stuff, how much money you have or what you do is not really the point but entrepreneurs is a group of people who in general make their money when they solve problems and when they help people so I think that is just a tremendous misunderstanding that if I could wish something I wish we could be more enlightened about that.

We need more entrepreneurs and small business people who are the engine of the economy and employment and in helping people achieve their dreams. Of course I think a lot of people recognize that teachers are very important and are heroes the thing unfortunately is a lot of folks are not allowed to really blossom in the school teaching environment but the fact that they are dedicating their lives one way or another I think is crucial.

You name it, spiritual leaders, I have learned a lot from as I have become a lot more spiritual in my life and I think anyone from the creative sphere of life is just tremendously undervalued in many ways, artist and writers and so forth often struggle with pursuing their craft but they add so much to our lives really.

I think anybody who is quietly going about their business and adding to the world, they are heroes and it often does go unnoticed. So, the reason to do well is not to always get a pat on the back.
