Thank you GV!
Awesome post man. Have a sweet day! Oh, and send my regards to Andre and his lady :)
be safe and take care
teymur.
Just gotta do my best with what I got, right here, right now.
Ain't waiting for that red-carpet to roll out to me. :D
Even if you just exchange links with someone that doesn't have that great of a site, it might rock their world enough for them to say good things about you. I'm glad there's people like you out there, Gary, that don't let their ego get in the way of reality.
Although I'm not going into business or plan on becoming someone big in the tech world, those little victories can happen to everyone in any setting. Sometimes it's hard to see them when so much is going on, but recognizing those can give you the momentum to get where you REALLY want to be.
And Ustream shows, they are so great, even the minimally-attended ones!
You're a great inspiration. Keep up the excellent work.
Best quote of the video by far was "...tiny squirrel like moves...". LOL!
Thanks,
Richard
You have spoken some wise words here today. If more people thought the way you do I think everyone could be successful.
If you really enjoy what you are doing there should be no duties that are below you.
Keep on Rocking the Wisdom.

Well now the 2 girls just opened a second store in Cali and buy large quantities...
"Better than Zero", Gary, well said!
This message is really valuable to me. I live in a country with little opportunities in the web businesses, but I love the web. My dream is to move to the U.S and do a online business over there and later move it to my country. The only thing i was doing wrong was not starting. We are starting right now, looking for a university to go to in the US and by starting our own Video Blog to gather ideas and build our own brand. Even if we are here right now, so we will have something for when we get there. Thanks for inspiring us! And we, with a little bit of you will keep bringing the Thunder not only to the Wine World, but to the Whole of it (the world).
I'm 30 and I often feel that the dreams I had in my 20s may never happen, but you make me feel like anything is possible as long as I'm willing to work hard and just create. Keep on keeping on.
Thanks for the honest and inspiring words, Gary.
I too need better 'hustling discipline' (well put, David) but little inspirations like this help with that a lot.
Thanks again.
Liz Murray taught me that anything is better than zero... in real life as well as business... if you don't know who she is people, go ahead and google her and read her story... she came down to CR for a YPO weekend last year (my idea, :) ) and knocked our socks off!!!!!
(That was, of course, humorously said, for those who didn't get it.)
I'm in the process of rebuilding the Wine For Newbies brand since I gave up the podcast last year. I'm not sure that podcasting will be a part of Wine For Newbies 2.0, but other good stuff for wine education will be.
Your points are encouraging. Thanks! Maybe I'll hit you up for some cheap advertising/sponsorship. :-)

You are a great inspiration.

P.S. Was interested in what you posted about the word "geek" on your myspace profile. You should check out the recent discussion about geek vs. nerd. vs. dork on my site.
love it!
great points.
thanks, gary
"The inches we need are everywhere around us.
They are in ever break of the game

Sage advice.
Good video. I was feeling a little down before I saw this vid, but now I'm pumped up again. I work at http://www.beYOU.tv, a fitness and wellness video community. Starting a business is no joke, it takes a ton of work. I love the better than 0 idea.
I'll get back to work tomorrow and leverage the crap outta what I have and hit this He-Man style!

You are so real and full of heart and grounded in reality that I always get a gigantic smile on my face when I watch your videos.
I have always been uncomfortable, and sometimes revolted, by the internet marketing strategists that push to charge more, more, more for my time and to spend less time connected to the people who are at the heart of my audience.
Would it be fun to cavort with celebrities at fancy parties? Maybe. But infinitely more fun is knowing that something I wrote, or a free conversation I had with a frustrated computer programmer in Iowa made a difference.
I am all for setting up a healthy business model, but scrapping and hustling is not just good for biz, it is good for the soul.
Much love and power to you and your message -- it is what we need to hear.

Gary Vee is the main bruddah man, what else can I say! I took advice from GV and had no clue it would be so much freakin' fun and REALLY have me doin' what I love!
I do recall hearing somewhere that we have the "pursuit of happiness".... why is it so many people stick to the unhappy things?
Gary Vee for Pres. baby! ha ha

Remember Skeletor!!!

anyway, I head butted my flip cam today, twice, b/c I was so pumped...just had to show my viewers how crazy i am!

Some who also started at Alexa 3m get to the top, and then they're "above that stuff." Thanks for staying grounded and not acting like an "emperor". Hustling...
I love your energy. You are right everything is better than zero. I love this principle! Thanks for sharing!
Excellent post.. "More than Zero" is a great way of labeling the phenomenon of stacking constant small improvements to get where you want to go. The Japanese have been using this idea..they call it Kaizen..with great success in manufacturing for years. This is why Toyota is dominating while GM, Ford, and Chrysler continue to look for huge changes to quickly get back on top. The secret is that Toyota has been making micro changes for 30 years....and THEY ADD UP!

Thank you as always Gary! You never cease to amp my game up with your sound advice.
food for thought:
it is all the little things that people scoff off that aggregate into a monster over time. start building your monster now - piece by piece by little bity piece.
ROCK OUT FOLKS! The Time Is NOW!!
There are no shortcuts in life. It's the great hustle that gets goals accomplished. Thanks for putting it out there.

I am not into wine tasting. However, I watch every show. I respect your hustle and your passion. You could be talking about index cards, and I would find it interesting. Its the authentic love for what you are doing that inspires me, and makes me want to watch. I get it brother.
Keep up the good work.

Let them be them, admire them but don't be jealous. If you do it right, it could be you one day.
You nailed it, my friend.
It could be a day. It could be a month. It could a year. Keep fighting!
Great stuff. We are an instant gratification society for sure, and tat patience is something soooo many of us lack. Great stuff. I am doing a sort of similar vlog called Starting Up a Startup at www.royalants.com, and your energy and passion are inspiring. Shameless self promotion aside, GREAT STUFF and thank you!
