The Most Important Word - Audio Podcast

People ask me all the time, "How do I get covered in the New York Times, or how do I get that meeting with that CEO?" My response? 1 is greater than 0. 

What I mean by this is that people underestimate the steps it takes to get to the biggest places in the world. It just doesn't happen over night. You've got to put in the work and you've got to continuously provide value to whomever you're trying to reach, be it an audience of a million, or an audience of 1. 

If you want to get the prominent news coverage or that high-profile meeting with today's luminaries, you need to do a lot of the little things to build up your cadence to actually get those opportunities. Because people have seen me on shows like Ellen, or Conan, The Today Show, or CNN, they often ask how they could get those opportunities for themselves, and the hard truth of it all is that you've got to earn it. You've got to put in the time to get asked to get that coverage. Before I was ever covered by any of these big names, I was doing interviews and appearances on shows that only received 1, or 19 or 137 views. But why? Why would I do that? Because those few views, that extra one view, is so much greater than none at all.

So, are you willing to take ten minutes to get 150 views? Because I am. It's not always about the width or the size of the platform. It's about the value you're providing to the people who took the time out of their lives to listen to you. Whether that's a group of ten or one hundred, or one million - It's all the same. And the value you set out to provide each time should remain as such. 

So my advice is to put in the work and do all of the little things that you don't want to do. Nothing is going to come easy so stop looking for that one golden moment. Work on expanding your reach and building your network through the value you can provide, regardless of the "reach" or the audience that may be present. Intent trumps all. And if you stick with that notion, there may just be that one person in that crowd of 5, 10, 15 people who can drastically change the course of your journey. 


One is Greater than Zero

[Bonus Track] Part of The Equation

There is something that is rarely talked about in the business world and I want to start building more attention for it.

That thing is self-awareness.

I’m upset that the narrative these days is that everyone needs to be number one, own a company, be in charge. A lot of people are going to lose that way.

Self-awareness allows people to recognize what things they do best so they can then go hard on those aspects of their life. It also helps you accept your weaknesses.

What works for one person doesn’t work for everyone. I want people to learn to be at peace with themselves, to understand what they can offer, because everyone’s got something. The key, however, is learning how to find it.

Self-awareness can help you do that.

Self-awareness is being able to accept your weaknesses while focusing all of your attention on your strengths.

The moment you decide to accept your shortcomings and bet entirely on your strengths, things will change. Trust me.

The Importance of Self-Awareness

Time to rise and grind. GaryVee gets you ready for your day like only he can.

Gary Vaynerchuk's Very Special Wakeup Alarm [Free Download]

Hard Work & Patience

Everyone who watches this has one weakness they are aware of. Something they aren't good at. Something they haven't addressed. Everyone. That is the beginning of the process of self-awareness.

One of the most important things for me when it comes to running a team is making everyone feel safe. Because when people feel safe, they start telling the truth. And that is an enormous upside in running a business. If everyone can be honest with themselves, be truthful about who they actually are versus who they want to be, that is when the magic happens.

This video speaks to all of that, and more. I hope you enjoy it. Let me know in the comments what you think, and would love to hear your story about self-awareness.

ONE LIFE

This message COULD NOT&nbsp;be more important to me .. In this day and age where the negative minority is so much louder than those that are actually happy with their lives, we need to take it upon ourselves to spread positive vibes. Everything we're told, everything we're sold, is based on this lie that we all need to be fixed in one way or another and that's just not true. It's time to build on our strengths, focus on our perspective, and bring out in others the positivity that just doesn't get highlighted enough. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE. It's time !!&nbsp;

This is what it’s all about. Whether you’re growing a brand or starting a new company, there’s only one thing in your absolute control: WORK. Practice it. Preach it. Do whatever you gotta do because it’s the single most important thing in moving forward. Sleep has nothing to do with it. Sleep as much as you can as long as you're maximizing the hours that you're awake. There’s no success without sucking it up, putting in the time and pushing yourself harder to get where you want to be. Get hyped, and get ready to make it happen !! You're in full control.

Work Harder: A Compilation

This mashup of fire motivation and inspiration comes from a contest my team had a few weeks back, where they all created mashups for Facebook. Each one of these fire clips has its own theme, whether it's to challenge yourself, live your life to the absolute fullest, tripling down on what you're good at, or making sure that you're not taking what's going on around you for granted to stand out from society. Hope you guys enjoy this, and hit me up on Twitter to tell me what you thought &lt;3

A Mashup: 5 Motivational Clips For Your Sunday

If you don't love what you're doing, change it. It's not all about the money &amp; fame - but if you're spending every single day unhappy because you hate your job, then you need to start turning that around. Check out the full clips from this mashup here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZAVroBYLIc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gI-BU_7KfHc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ytw4Smz5k7c https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qo3TmwD9JU0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_j0sbRCbWJI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vyreE99h608 &nbsp;

A Mashup: Finding Your Motivation & Passion

It's nothing but a truth that once you start hanging out around people that are positive, confident and yearning for success that it'll affect you by association, just like if you're hanging out around people that complain all the time, you'll start falling into that hole. This mashup is about auditing your life, your circle and your relationships with people close to you to decide how adjusting those relationships can influence your life. Hope this one hits home for you &lt;3&nbsp;
