The Path To FINANCIAL FREEDOM - Gary Vaynerchuk | Motivational Talk

how many people here work somewhere but really want to have their own business or hustle raise your hands a lot for me the internet is for you for me if i sat down with these two dudes the black shirt and the white shirt right in this third row and they both raised their hands for me it's not about cut if i was sitting down with you for three hours it's not about coming up with a business that's gonna do 10 million bucks it's about understanding how much money you make now working a job what you spend your money on to live and trying to figure out how quickly you can get into a place where you don't have to work in a job one more time how many hands work somewhere but want to do their own thing raise your hands more than half this audience meanwhile let me tell you why most of the hands that just went up will never get there they buy dumb do you know how many people here literally drive cars to impress people that they hate people literally going in debt or getting further from leaving the job they don't like to do something that will make them happy because they have to buy a certain car that has a logo that impresses people that they despise do you understand how up that is do you know how many people here live in homes where they don't use more than half the rooms in the house like we are so fundamentally in a vortex that makes no sense that i am unbelievably passionate understanding how much money you make and what you can do to get off of it but the problem is again people are doing so many things to keep up with the joneses to make it look like they're successful to appease their parents and a million other things that have nothing to do with themselves and we need to change that game and thank you and the internet is the most likely thing the internet is a place where you can make 54 000 a year just talking about peanut butter this is important guys this is super duper important what i'm talking about the internet unlike the real world is a place where the long tail gets rewarded the long tail the reason i'm on this ridiculous to many people garage sale hustle thing is because the quickest way by the way because i knew i was going to be here do you know how crazy it is especially in a market like this where ebay because amazon wasn't here is even more mature and ahead do you understand how crazy it is that if you went to the clearance aisles of your five biggest retailers in australia bought things on clearance went home relisted it and posted on ebay that the far majority of this audience could make between 50 to 100 000 a year just on doing that for nine to 10 hours a day meanwhile everybody's sitting here with the next big app that's going to be the next uber for lawn mowers the thing that has made me successful far more than my passion or my energy is my disproportionate practicality most people want to look the part of an entrepreneur that came up with the next supreme or adidas brand or the next uber or facebook yet our forty thousand dollars in debt work in a job that they hate and literally if they went to the five discount stores that dominate this market buy things on clearance go home take a picture with their phone and upload to ebay and then when people buy it go to the post office and ship it they would be able to get out of debt and get into a financial place but people don't want to do that because they don't want to be judged for that being their hustle most people in this room in this world would rather lose looking like they're doing something successful than win and be judged for doing something that seems dorky it's facts and that leads me to the thing that i matter the most which is why you were living your life based on other people's opinions if i could punch every person's mom in the face in this audience i would it's scary to me how much pressure parents put on their kids and use them as products to look good to the other parents that they're spending their time on when it is not in the best interest of their kids happiness it's just a real broken system it's really unfortunate and i am the byproduct appearance that went the other way which really allowed me to lean into the things i was passionate about even though in the 90s in america immigrant kids were supposed to get straight a's if you follow me on instagram you saw my report card that thing is ugly that is the reason i get to stand here today because i had nothing so i had adversity because the quickest way not to win in life is have too much when you start and two i was able to breathe i am here and i promise if you really study me all i'm doing and it took me a little while to realize it is all i'm doing is i'm trying to do to the world what my parents did to me i feel such a level of guilt and gratitude a mix of the two of how i had it that all i'm trying to do with my popularity or my attention is create the shield for you to point to do you know how happy it makes me how many people use my content to show to the person they're fighting with internally or subconsciously to give them the air cover to do the thing they want to do that makes me feel incredible it's the great gift of my life that a lot of people use my content to give them permission to do the thing that they want to do and that is what drives me to fly across the whole world and keep doing it that is unbelievably fulfilling i'm gonna get mine i have news for everybody i got mine long before i got on stage and started doing stuff i don't need to monetize my audience there's no product that i'm going to try to make you buy for the next 14 minutes what i'm doing what i'm doing is trying to be happy when i fly home in a couple days and read the emails from people and by the way i get them every day every day i get emails that start with i was 47 000 in debt a year ago and now i've got a business doing 300 000 i don't know why it took me four and a half years to finally do what you've been saying and that's the thing just so you understand what you know why i love when people like gary v like the comments are just so fun gary vee like you suck bro you repeat the same i'm like because it's right the reason i keep repeating it the reason i believe in it is because i know for so many of you even though you've seen it 87 times this moment in real life at this time might be the time it happens that's how it actually works this is a game of perspective either you understand what's happening or not do you know how many people have defaulted into thinking this is a terrible time my friends this is the greatest time to be a human being in the history of earth i mean i don't know what else to tell you this is like math this is not my opinion this is what's going on with genocide and health life expense like this is the best like for all the we have with racism and sexism and a lot of terror we got plenty of meanwhile they had the black plague meanwhile they had world war two meanwhile they had real and we sit around and complain about the dumbest in the world people complain about like getting the wrong milk in their coffee from a barista or that you're what this is my your wi-fi is a little slower than normal like you're upset you can feel the speed it's a little lower or or my or you got a few less likes than you're usually getting on a po like the stuff that we actually spend time on is fascinating to me it is a complete and utter lack of perspective and so i spend all my time trying to contextualize what's actually happening and what's actually happening is the internet is finally mature enough that is at such a scale that literally every person in this room can win and not at the expense of anybody else in this room because the long tail is that huge if they're willing to lean into things that most people aren't willing to lean into humility getting quiet in their head from everybody else's judgment patience as patience is nobody has ever built anything meaningful overnight people have inherited money you can win the lotto it happens but not for the 99.9 percent and all of this is available to every person here if they're willing to figure out how they communicate to the world and now the most important part i laughed at you you know why because a lot of you commented about this conference today during the day some of you complained that people came up here and sold right i am a weird dude i decided to look at everybody here who complained about people up here to sell and i decided to audit their social media profiles their facebook pages and twitter accounts let me tell you about all the people that complained that people came up here and sold every post out of their mouth on their facebook is selling [Music] it's funny it's hypocrisy at scale people on other people selling yet every post out of their mouth is by this my favorite one person here complaining has all every post is come for my free assessment which is their sales pitch and so i highly recommend everybody here starts really becoming religious about empathy you want to really win in life figure out what empathy is and practice it and i have no idea how to teach it but get it into your skull the reason i sell so well is cause the only thing i think about is the audience not what's in it for me what's in it for them that will always work the reason i have a good organization and culture is because i work for 900 people not they work for me the biggest mistake that many of you will make within an organization is when you go from doing to being a manager you think you've made it and now people work for you that's the beginning of you working for them and so we are really in desperate need of perspective and so what you may want to do is not actually strategize your instagram post based on how many followers or likes you're going to get but maybe actually weirdly maybe just one time it would be a good idea to think what the few people that decided to follow you actually get out of you putting that picture up maybe that will work you want to build a audience it's not going to be engagement groups or fake followers or all the other horseshit hacks that everybody wants to figure out to have the perception of having 4 000 or 10 000 or 100 000 fans it's actually putting in the work to create a meaningful community based on you actually bringing them value how about that for a strategy [Applause] and another thing while i'm on that for so many people that are complaining that they don't have a big enough audience how do you have the audacity to wish for more fans when you don't go into your own comments when you only get 17 of them and reply to the people that are already part of your community from 2007 to 2011 when nobody knew who the i was and twitter was the platform of the day i spent every day replying to every single tweet that made a mention of me and used to go to sleep at three and four o'clock in the morning until i completely got to everybody and that's how i built my foundation people want the glitz and the glamour and the caviar but they're not willing to eat the period if if i mean if you don't understand how this actually plays out there is no shortcut there's no hack there's no tip there's just the work my favorite are the fitness influencers on instagram they figured it out in fitness that you know they eat well they work out every day they're so disciplined yet for their business or their social media following they're looking for the shortcut the they make fun of that people do in health they're doing in social and in business it's cliche i see it every day my friends please understand what i'm about to tell you social media's golden era will go away just like search engines golden era went away and emails golden era went away everything we're talking about right now is in the prime of its career the prime like an athlete or a supermodel at the apex over the next decade or two it will lose its throne most likely in my opinion to voice devices like alexa and google which are going to steal our attention because of the level of convenience it brings to our lives but visual is always going to play and it will always have a place just like email not as good as it was in 1997 but still an outrageously effective way to sell and market even to this day it's not like it's gonna die it's just not gonna be as awesome as it is right now you're sitting here if you're at this conference you're paying attention to what i'm saying now my question is are you really gonna allow me to make fun of you in seven years for not doing anything about it you
