Context is everything.
Gary, you say it all the time.
I’ve learned so much from you. I know 1000% that I cannot do what you do.
I don’t want it. That’s not who I am.
Yet, everything else I’ve been able to do, moving to the US, going in on my strengths, quieting the noise, getting better at storytelling, etc, it’s all because of your message and your story.
A friend sent me this link and once I got to the part where ‘you had $3M headstart’, I smiled.
I knew this writer didn’t have all the information to make these assessments.
True to what you encourage the Vaynernation to do , I no longer consume your stuff as much.
I’m creating. Both online and offline.
I know enough to give this as the Gary Vee Formula :
Self-awareness +Hustle +Patience =Happiness.
It’s never been about the money. Ever.
You know this. You always say it :
1 minute of your energy filled rant taken out of context leads to…well…this 😊.
I’m grateful for all you do for people like me: people who need to have the courage to accept that we want a certain lifestyle and we may not be able to get it because we simply don’t have what it takes.
The cool thing about Self-awareness is that we are always changing. I may want to be an entrepreneur today but after assessment of my talents, my current state, circumstances, etc, I get to decide if I want to keep doing this or switch.
We’re in control. That’s what I get from you.
I’m pumped you took the time to respond to this post. The same way you responded to J. Westenberg 🌈 (who I love as well).
Somehow, I knew you would.
You’re the man, Gary. You’re the man.
