How Practicality Leads To Happiness

Gary Vaynerchuk
About this episode

A lot of people are in jobs they don’t like because they tie themselves down with expenses that don’t actually make them happy.

It’s an issue for so many … the truth is, a lot of people would rather “look the part” and posture to their friends like they’re building a business instead of doing “unsexy” things that’ll make them money and bring them closer to leaving jobs they don’t like.

0:25 - If you work somewhere but want your own business

1:09 - Don’t buy dumb shit

2:22 - Practicality = happiness

4:40 - Why are you living your life based on other people’s opinions?

7:52 - This is the greatest time to be a human being

9:59 - Having empathy > hawking your brand

14:00 - Social media’s golden era will go away

People will realize how important this message is in a few years … watch and tweet me what you thought @GaryVee with the hashtag #GVAudioExperience
