How Gary Vaynerchuk has affected me.

Gary and I have a short, but powerful history.

Warning: This post is super disorderly. However, it comes from my heart on a day where I really struggled to post something.

Intro.

Gary Vee is someone that I have followed for about 9 months. I loved to hear what he said from day one. Eventually, I started consuming his content multiple times per day. I found it very helpful. I constantly promoted his way of thinking and his content to my ‘seemingly less motivated’ friends. Often times they would reject him as condescending and rude. A know-it-all of sorts. However, a few of them started to consume him and told me they really do like him now. They understand that he comes off harsh but after a while, they understand his passion.

Personally I have gone through three phases regarding Gary’s content.

Phase I: Getting me pumped up.

At first, I listened to it and struggled to figure out what it was that truly made me happy. I played around with a few things. First I started to find people I could add to my team so I could start a business. I ended up making a really good friend in this process. Then I ended up starting a totally different business that I had not even thought of.
