[Gary Vaynerchuk] YOU HAVE ONE SHOT – 400 TRILLION : 1


so it’s early Monday morning and I’ve
been wanting to make a Monday morning
video for a long time but finally d-roc
we’re doing it so real quick this is
just a rant very simple and something
that I want you to pass on or watch
every Monday morning because the level
of complaining is unacceptable look what
if I told you this was the last Monday
morning of your life what if I told you
you died this week would you complain
about your crap job or that test you
don’t want to take I doubt it you would
go much higher level thinking well
that’s really what it takes it takes
understanding that if you’re not pumped
right now if you’re brunching what
you’re about to do it here if you’re not
looking forward to it look I respect
practicality you got to go through
school because your parents want to you
got to pay your rent you got screwed in
loans I get it
but please recognize the world we’re
living in we’re living in a world where
there’s so much more opportunity this
internet thing created many more
opportunity for all of us way more I
mean look you might not even be alive
like your mom and dad could have had sex
like three minutes later and you
wouldn’t even exist and you’re
complaining you could have ended up
being a bus a tree I just don’t get the
mentality of being head down sad on a
Monday morning I’m gonna make Monday
morning my bitch I’m gonna make you
Saturday Monday morning that’s what I
want to do every morning and that’s what
I want from you please take a step back
and think about how awesome it actually
is and then recognize that you can
attack the world in a totally different
way because you were lucky enough to be
born during this era
[Music]
then take care about everything and it
starts with yourself look yourself in
the mirror and ask yourself what do I
want to do every day for the rest of my
life do that it’s coming stop crying and
just keep hustling so many of you that
actually want this have the skills to do
this right and sometimes once in a while
just need to see a different version of
it to understand ah right ah to me this
is an AA video right did you mail it in
did you mail in that 15 minute 15 minute
call got cancelled you had a packed a 15
hour day they got canceled
what are you in that 15 minutes and by
the way sometimes those 15 minutes are
absolutely worth calling your mom
calling your daughter face on with your
kids every minute has to count every
minute past account if you want so much
because you just don’t have as many of
them as you think you just don’t and you
need to start creating layers and layers
and layers and layers of skin to be able
to get through because the glamour of
being an entrepreneur the goodness you
know you get very confused by my
optimism because it’s my optimism I
can’t help it it’s just how I roll it’s
probably one of the variable 1% reasons
why I’m successful
the please don’t get it twisted this is
hard every day is hard and if you don’t
have the stomach to weather the storm
I’m scared that you don’t realize that
you’re entering the greatest five year
window of your life if you are
twenty-two years old and graduating from
college shit if you’re 22 years old and
not graduating from college if you are
twenty-two years old you are entering
first of all some of the greatest years
of your life
hey but be this this is the moment watch
this video twice if mama’s watching this
send this to your daughter Sally right
now because you have to understand this
next five-year window is when you don’t
go practical and safe this is not the
time to get the job mom wanted you to
this is not the time to try to maximize
as much money so you can buy a fat whip
this is the time to realize that you
have a five-year window and it’s three
for some it’s eight for others but
there’s a fine new window for you to
attack the life that you want to win not
because it’s the secret or cuz the world
so Zen because it’s fucking hardest shit
out there as a matter of fact I’m
probably more scared about your naivete
– how hard class is easy right what
you’ve been doing for the last 16 years
is easy it’s a fucking bullshit game
it’s structured it’s easy the world this
thing this thing is hard however that
contradicts what I’m gonna tell you
right now which is this is the best and
easiest five years of your life because
this is when you need to attack what you
love and what you want to do here’s why
you don’t have all the baggage you may
have college loans respect it’s hard as
shit you may have the expectations of
your parents mentally hard fake hard you
may have a lot of other things but this
is exactly when you can live with four
roommates in a basement and eat fucking
fast food do you understand this is not
when the babies they’re some of your
babies this is not when you’ve been
married and you promised this is not
when the world is sucked out all your
dreams and hopes yet you’ve still got
this window and yet so many of you are
so hungry for short-term short-term
gains like maximising the job that paid
you $3,000 more but it’s not as fun but
you want that
thousand dollars for what for what for a
new iPhone for what you get to live life
one time and this is the time right now
to understand what’s actually happening
and actually map your behavior to
something that will impact you for the
next 80 years so promise me promise me
all you youngsters that are watching
this right now in the fucking comments
because I’ll jump in and talk to you
promise me that you understand that the
land grab of happiness starts right now
that you don’t have to worry about
getting that job what you should do is
go and travel and learn go and start
that business that you’ve always wanted
hook up with those three teammates and
start that band you’ve always wanted
this is the time to be massively risk
massively risk oriented I know that this
is when you’re supposed to grow up and
go see the world but guess what the
world isn’t what mommy and daddy told
you the world is exactly going to be
what its going to be with or without the
way you thought it was going to be a ton
of shit is gonna change the world
changes every goddamn day right now what
you need to recognize is you can afford
to and not all of you I’m sure somebody
will leave a comment say I’ve got a loan
I get it respect but that loan is gonna
be there whether you go and try to build
something for yourself or not one way or
the other and by the way you can work at
night this is when you put in the 18
hours a day to make your life thing you
want happen and again because I’m scared
I can see myself fucking talking I’m not
saying it’s the secret it’s practicality
when you’re in your early 20s this is
when you can grind at your highest
levels because there isn’t all the
fucking baggage that comes across
through life it’s harder for the 42 year
olds that are watching right now to
listen to this advice
you can’t just wake up tomorrow and be
like let’s go cuz little Sally has
soccer fucking practice and because
you’ve got a million other things that
are holding you down the boy if you’re
lucky enough to be graduating today with
not a fucking idea of what you’re gonna
do with your future nobody’s ever been luckier than you please recognize it
