What If You Knew Who You Really Are?

Gary Vaynerchuk
About this episode

This is a conversation I had with a young Vayner employee I think can help many of you. This is a very candid conversation where we talk about figuring yourself out (vs who you WISH you were), hard work and documenting vs. creating. Many of my favorite themes come up as I dig deep and share some key insights. I hope this conversation inspires you to create a life for yourself. Curious to hear what you're passionate about - tweet me @GaryVee and let me know.

3:45 | Starting the process of building a relationship; don't front

6:40 | Trust the process, and let the world come to you
