The Garyvee Audio Experience

If you're unhappy, there's no excuses for sitting around and complaining that the world's not fair to you, or that you had a shitty upbringing or any other "excuses" that are preventing you from doing your thing. I'm empathetic to those issues from your past, but right now is the time to drop those and leave them where they were, and focus on what's in front of you.

Loved chopping it up with Reece Parkinson on BBC Radio 1Xtra last week diving deep into my thoughts around Will Smith's newly founded presence basketball and football/soccer and why I want to dominate that industry and Snapchat's new update and redesign. Really really really great content here - I focus real heavily on my happiness and why and how I don't let others' opinions about myself affect my own happiness and well being.

MASSIVE love to my friend and business mogul Danny Meyer, CEO of Union Square Hospitality Group which founded and runs many famous restaurants around New York and the country like Blue Smoke, Gramercy Tavern and Shake Shack. We take some calls from #firstinline and answer questions on hospitality, entrepreneurship, restaurant ownership and more. Total fire in this show.   Hit up Danny here: https://www.instagram.com/dhmeyer/ https://twitter.com/dhmeyer  

This keynote focused around an audience of contractors was completely on fire when it came to the Q&A section. It kicks off with a massive focus on the fact that the internet and social media aren't ruining your life, they're not ruining our world-  they're exposing who we really are. I talk about the way I identify upcoming trends & nuances in the world, not necessarily always by trial and error. Some great topics & tactics in this keynote, hope you enjoy

COMPLETE FIRE here on The Brink of Midnight Podcast. Great chatting about how my experiences being a D and F student with negative reinforcement in school shaped my entrepreneurial vision today - and why that was a huge driver in my life, and I tell a story about how overpaying for a baseball card table at age 13 was a major transformative moment in my life. There's a TON here that I think a lot haven't heard- would love if you listened

Complete fire on this episodes of the #podSessions. I had my man Gabe Anderson of VaynerBeta, Ultra athlete and author Rich Roll and Instagram hit / pro actress Arabella S Ruby on the show this week to chop it up about business, culture, social media, and a TON more. Great, great stuff on this show.  Check out all the guests here: Rich Roll: https://www.instagram.com/richroll/ Rich's Podcast: http://www.richroll.com/category/podcast/ Rich's book: https://www.amazon.com/Finding-Ultra-Rejecting-Becoming-Discovering/   Arabella S Ruby: https://www.instagram.com/arabellasruby/ Gabe Anderson: https://www.instagram.com/gabe_anderson/  

Listen up -  this is a MASSIVELY important topic that I touch on often. You have time. You're young. What the fuck are you in such a rush for? I see so many young people that are either just out of high school, in college, or just out of college that are spending so much time and energy evaluating their lives and seeing where they stand in comparison to the people around them; stop judging yourselves! Close your eyes until you're 29 and stop dwelling on the past. Be patient and be self-aware, but don't stress if you haven't "made it" while you're still in your 20s... You have so much time. Hit me up on Twitter and let me know your thoughts.  @Garyvee

As many of you probably saw, there was a huge shift and growth in Twitch's culture this week, and my predictions and thoughts are coming true that I've been saying for years ;) 

The internet changed everything... There are no more middlemen and you don't have to get the permission from some old white dude to do whatever it is that you need to do. Instead of coming up with dumb excuses as to why you can't.. look at all the reasons why you can. Hope u all enjoy this fireside chat I did at Baron Davis' Allstar weekend in LA.

This was a firey episode of #AskGaryVee with TV star, entrepreneur and all around badass Bethenny Frankel - Besides diving down into Bethenny's history and coming up story, we chat building the fastest growing alcohol brand, salad dressings, polo players and a TON more. Lots and lots and lots of laughs here :) Hit up Bethenny and say hi: https://www.instagram.com/bethennyfrankel/

Loved loved loved being a guest on Dave Meltzer's podcast, The Playbook. We get straight into it, talking about my "inner workings" and more than just what I put out. I go into what I mean when I talk about how I have no expectations from others, so nobody can every let me down, and really expand on why I care more about my legacy than what I'm thought of this second - comparing to Christopher Columbus. This was an all-time interview, that I'd love if you took a listen to

Totally fired up about being a guest on Tom's show at Agent2021 recent - we chopped it up talking about much more than just real estate, diving into what it's like touching on big, big brands that are pushing to stay relevant in today's social world - and how those brands are doing it. Another big topic we touch on is figuring out what kind of content creation and distribution you're good at - you may hate being on video but be an excellent podcaster, which is why you should be going all - in on your strengths. Some really, really good stuff here that I think you'd love

Straight fire out of this interview from my friends over at BiggerPockets, talking about emotion in losing and how that's changed for me over the years (and how it fires me up to push harder), why I recommend buying filters & frames geotargeted towards college campuses for hiring interns & employees and finding deals through social media. Great great interview here - hope u enjoy !! Check out the full show here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/show264

This is an important topic that I don't think many people realize when they're unhappy at a job, especially right as you're stepped into a new role. If you're unhappy, don't just stay because of how you think it looks on paper. There's no sense in pushing through misery just to get another line in your resume - do what makes you happy. 

If you don't love what you're doing, change it. It's not all about the money & fame - but if you're spending every single day unhappy because you hate your job, then you need to start turning that around. Check out the full clips from this mashup here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZAVroBYLIc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gI-BU_7KfHc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ytw4Smz5k7c https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qo3TmwD9JU0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_j0sbRCbWJI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vyreE99h608  

I gave this advice to one great kid on growing his personal brand and social media influence .. I just wanted most of you to hear it too...

This interview originally appeared on Cheddar's "The Point" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ey5nhBUNgko&amp=   I think you're all going to find the format of this interview that I did at Cheddar extremely interesting. Arianna Huffington and I chat with Cheddar founder Jon Steinberg on topics like work life balance, burnout, disconnecting from social media & technology and dive into how I was able to be held accountable for my fitness. Really interesting points of view here- hope u enjoy !!

Complete fire coming out of this keynote at Tampa Startup Week. I dive deep into the upcoming trend of entrepreneurship, and how my ambition with my message isn't necessarily to encourage every single person to go out there and start a business, but to go out there and do what you want to do. If you want to be a number 13 at a company you admire, it doesn't mean you need to build a company and be it's number 1 first, but if that's your ambition then that's great. Some serious Q&A in this one too - make sure you check it out.

Loved chopping it up with my man Premium Pete, about growing up in New York City, the massive change in parenting and how where you grow up influences who you are. We dive deep into how and why I wanted to be cool with so many people throughout school by kindness, driven by the desire to sell and also chat about balancing work & private live. This was an all-time interview, and I'd love if you'd check it out. Hit up Premium Pete here:  Check out his podcast here: https://soundcloud.com/thepremiumpeteshow Hit him up on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/premiumpete/  

Fiiiiiiire podcast incoming - chopping it up with these guys brought out some really important points that need to be brought out. The standards of school, parenting, success and business are changing and if you want to succeed, you've gotta get on board to realize what's going on. As everyone wants to become an entrepreneur, it's important to realize that not everybody's fit to be one - maybe you'd be great as a number 13, instead of a number 1 or 2. SO so so many good topics here- you've gotta check it out
