Stop Living For The Weekend

Gary Vaynerchuk
About this episode

If you hate your Monday through Friday, you’re in big trouble.

I really want to put pressure on this conversation — I see so many people today living for the weekend and cheering for Friday because it’s a “relief” from their week.

Don’t get it twisted — I love family time and I’m not saying to not spend time with people you care about, but if you’re using the weekend as an “escape” from your week, you need to figure out an alternative.

Hope this podcast helps put this in perspective for a few of you :) Let me know what you thought @GaryVee on Twitter
