I tried for a while to find out what it is that Gary actually does and why certain rather "intelligent" human beings seem to think that he's the shit.
I'll be honest, I couldn't find anything on this guy other than his extensive knowledge of wine. Why in the fuck anyone would take this guy seriously? He's a charlatan who makes money off of people who believe he's special. If you want to take get rich advice from a guy who's really excited about wine, then feel free to do so, as long as that advice is about how to be a lemonade sales-person, or how to be a more discriminating wine taster. Gary is a euphemism for a snake oil merchant. He's spent a great deal of time and MONEY convincing people that he is great, but he never actually tells you who he is and how he made his money. He very carefully tip-toes around the issue, and from what I've seen in the videos, a lot of people are simply too enthused to see Gary throw five dicks in a four word sentence to care enough to actually ask him. He's like Timothy Ferriss... Sure, you get excited about quitting your day job and "gaming" and "crushing", but what neither of these guys will tell you is that you can't sit on your ass and expect to make money... which ironically is what they try to convince people to do. "Buy my book, it's all in there". These sort of people are a disgrace. Worse, however, are the people who actually believe Gary Vaynerchuk. You will never make the kind of money that Gary does unless you follow a very simple system. It's quite simple really: In order to make money, you have to spend money. If you want to make a billion dollars, you have to spend millions. That sort of common sense seems to escape people who I've known to believe in people like Gary and Timothy. Congratulations Gary! You are a very smart guy.... when compared to people who are dumb enough to pay you.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got a job interview to go to at my University, because when you work hard at something, it actually pays off!
Good luck to you Gary, but I really hope that there as at the very least a small percentage of people out there who realize that you're a quack.

Great point! Sometimes I focus so hard on trying to fix what I suck at that I totally ignore things I do well. No one is the total package :)

Agree! We spend too much time lamenting and not going forward with our strengths.

you know who sucks? THE J-E-T-S jets jets jets, S-U-C-K suck suck suck.

Unfortunately I have alot in common with the Jets, No Consistancy.

What am i good at? i'm not really sure, I think im just above average at a whole variety of things, but not great at any one thing and really bad at a couple of other things. I'm a dabbler, and that gary, is why I suck. you and your philosophies are a positive influence on my life none the less, so thank you for being you. Someday I hope to return that value.

Gary, thank you very much for this one. I had a sucky day because I was too focused on what I've always sucked and what I still suck at...I needed this message. Thanks for keeping it real. U da man. By the way I really enjoyed your interview with Eric Worre and I bought your book on Kindle for the iPhone. I'm in the middle of it now.

Ok, so in the past year have you tried at all to get better at what you sucked at?

Or did you take the road of focusing just on what you know your strengths are?

From the few examples I can remember off the top of my head, most of the time people who are at the front like you would recommend focusing on your strengths and becoming the best at that. I dunno, I've always seen overcoming weaknesses, or at least reducing the amount of suckage I have with them as a good challenge because this "suck" factor is all internal.

Though if it's naturally just not in your nature, it might just be a frustrating struggle where you waste all your energy.

Good thinkings.

Don't focus on what the JETS suck at.

I absolutely love this video. The great Gary V is so very human, and in that humanity acknowledges his weaknesses but continues to strive for quality.

Damn right, I suck at a lot of things and I'm rapidly learning how to focus on the things that I rock at. Getting better all the time and I'm gonna rock the house.

100% agree. Focus on your strengths, and watch the world open in front of you with all kinds of possibilities! :)

Very nice post. Really caught me off guard at first. I was thinking "What? Gary Vee saying that he sucks?? What's up with that! So unlike him".

It's very true how much you need to stop focusing on the negatives and only deal with the positives. Pimp yourself up.

We all need reminding of this powerful concept ... concentrate on what you are good at and admire and respect others for what THEY are good at. It takes all kinds.
