Quotes by Gary Vaynerchuk

Quote

‘But’ is not a word to use when you talk about your aspirations. If you are serious about reaching your dreams, nothing will get in the way.

Gary Vaynerchuk

Quote

I think a lot of people make the mistake of assuming that if you believe in hustle, you can’t ever take a step back. That’s too narrow a definition. Hustle means adjusting to business opportunities as they come and adjusting to life as it changes. If your north star is family, then there’s no shame in revolving your hustle around that. It’s about quality vs. quantity, being fully engaged while you’re working, not necessarily working every day of the week.

Gary Vaynerchuk

Quote

If you’re single-mindedly focused on your long-term goal, you’ll be more effective in the short term and get there faster.

Gary Vaynerchuk

Quote

You may have aspirations of being an entrepreneur, and you may have entrepreneurial tendencies, but if you are born to be an entrepreneur you will not be able to breathe for more than ten minutes in a ‘real’ job.

Gary Vaynerchuk

Quote

Always play the long game of lifetime value.

Quote

Consider #AskGaryVee my marketing master class. The difference between it and anything else you might have studied in school is that I don’t want you to regurgitate what you learn; I want you to act on it right now.
