The reason I have shied away from it is because I have young children and I have to be careful,&#8221; he explained to <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gq-magazine.co.uk\/culture\/article\/scooter-braun-interview-2020\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">British GQ<\/a><\/em>. &#8220;Recently I was attacked very publicly by someone I don&#8217;t know, someone who refused to have a conversation with me, and I wish that person nothing but the best and hope that one day a dialogue is had, because I think it all could have been avoided with proper dialogue, but what it did teach me was that if my children were teenagers, if they were a little bit older, this could have been very hard for them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-2\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"57.5\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"5\">\n<p>Scooter continued, &#8220;And I don&#8217;t know if I&#8217;m comfortable being in public office knowing the amount of ridicule and exposure you get and I don&#8217;t know if I want to put my children through that. So right now I&#8217;m trying to do the best I can from the private sector.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"video-int-txt-3\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"27.428571428571\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-video-text\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"6.453781512605\">\n<p>While he doesn&#8217;t address <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/taylor_swift\">Taylor Swift<\/a><\/strong> by name, Swifties speculated that he is referencing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/1093725\/taylor-swift-s-former-record-label-fires-back-at-singer-s-false-information-amid-music-drama\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">his feud<\/a> with the Grammy winner.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, the music executive spent his interview celebrating artists like <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/ariana_grande\">Ariana Grande<\/a><\/strong> and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/justin_bieber\">Justin Bieber<\/a><\/strong>.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-4\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"63\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"16\">\n<p>Scooter was also asked to share the most valuable lessons he has learned from his mistakes. His immediate answer was &#8220;ownership.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s easy when you&#8217;re young to get angry at the way people treat you, but that&#8217;s not helpful. What I&#8217;ve realized is I can&#8217;t affect what other people do or how they think. I can only affect my own actions. And the best thing I can do is take ownership of what role I can play in the relationship,&#8221; he shared. &#8220;If someone is angry at me then I must have contributed to their feelings in some way. Right or wrong, I was part of that chain of reaction. Having the ability to say sorry is also very important.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Scooter continued, &#8220;I&#8217;m also much more efficient if I can let that go. It&#8217;s startling how many of these things that you worry about turn out to be simple misunderstandings. It&#8217;s so easily fixed if you&#8217;re smart.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/1150618\/scooter-braun-reveals-what-he-learned-from-his-taylor-swift-feud?cmpid=rss-000000-rssfeed-365-topstories&#038;utm_source=eonline&#038;utm_medium=rssfeeds&#038;utm_campaign=rss_topstories\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: E!
