Love the Process, Not Just the Goal

Gary Vaynerchuk
About this episode

EVERY SECOND YOU SPEND THINKING ABOUT WHAT SOMEONE ELSE HAS, IS TAKING AWAY FROM TIME THAT YOU CAN CREATE SOMETHING FOR YOURSELF. SPEND THAT ENERGY ON YOUR VISIONS AND EXECUTE.


On today's Episode of the GaryVee Audio Experience, Im sharing a segment from the Ask GaryVee Show. I dive into essential advice for every 20-year-old looking to build a successful future. I talk about the importance of patience, hard work, and focusing on your own journey rather than comparing yourself to others. Our guest shares personal experiences and insights on overcoming the pressures of early adulthood, the pitfalls of envy, and the value of loving the process.


You'll learn:

  • Why comparing yourself to others can be detrimental to your success.
  • The concept of "Macro Patience, Micro Speed" and how it can change your perspective.
  • The importance of staying focused on your goals and avoiding distractions.
  • How to handle the pressure of building a business and the importance of hard work.
  • Why loving the journey is more important than reaching the destination.

Whether you're just starting your entrepreneurial journey or looking for motivation to keep going, this episode is packed with valuable insights you won't want to miss.
