A Message Every Entrepreneur Needs to He...

Gary Vaynerchuk
About this episode

Today's episode is from a conference I did called "NoBullCon". A lot of people are pursuing entrepreneurship right now because they think it's "cool" and will make them a lot of money. What you should really be pursuing is the thing that makes you happiest, not what you think will be perceived by others as success. For many of you, entrepreneurship is that thing, and that's great. But for another large group, they would be much happier doing something else and need to have the self-awareness and humility to take one step back and move in a direction that will make them happier for life.

Enjoy! Let me know what you thought.
