I knew who Gary Vaynerchuk was because of this interview Juli Huang did with him on MatadorLife, but I wouldn’t consider myself a follower of his.
I happened upon this talk of his yesterday, and though his manner of presentation is a bit, um, hyper and intense, he has a lot of good stuff to say about what it takes to pursue your dream (and why you should in the first place).
“Blow shit up,” Gary says, referring to whatever cage you’re trapped in, whatever paradigm is limiting you. I agree- there’s never been a more exciting time that’s filled with more possibility for more people than now. Take your life back into your own hands.
I like his message, too, but it’s hard to get past his James Cameron-like wording sometimes.
I know, Kyle- kind of wish the message had been delivered by a different messenger.
