By All Means, Do What You Love - NO MORE EXCUSES!!

     In a blog posted on the talk platform TED.com titled “Building Personal Brand Within the Social Media Landscape”, Gary Vaynerchuk, from Wine Library, delivered a brilliant speech tittle “do what you love, no excuses”. Personally, this speech was very motivating and helpful in the development of a deeper understanding of life, business and business storytelling.

 

    It was wonderful to see how Gary inspired the audience, He spoke in tee shirt and jeans, presenting a very casual atmosphere, but he started out very intense, very focused. As he expressed to the audience that he had no doubt that everyone in the audience was going to “kill it”, he was creating an atmosphere of trust.

 

    In a world that places too much emphasis on wanting it now, it was a pleasure finding out that there are still people in the world who believe that “Patience and Passion” are the two most important traits that should be practiced in creating a brand name for yourself. Gary states that, “Too many people in the room are doing stuff they hate”. That is oh so true. You have to “please stop doing that,” as Gary says.

 

    Remember the fun days when you used to play a musical instrument; life will always be good if you remember how good you felt when you played your musical instrument. I agree with Gary when he says, “There is no reason for people to be doing stuff they hate”.

 

    How about creating a new way of life? If took Gary until he was thirty to figure out that there was a portion of his life that he didn’t like. Gary makes a brilliant suggestion, he says “look yourself in the mirror and decide what you want to do every day for the rest of your life”. And when you start thinking about that, remember how music was an important part of your life.

 

    “Keep Hustling” as Gary likes to say. It is important to remember that the main goal of your entire remake of yourself, and that is to “build a business out of what you love to do”, learn to monetize what you like. If you put out a good product, people will come to you, but as Gary says, “If you don’t believe in what you’re doing, your personal brand or the product you represent;

“Repetition creates perfection,

the more you do it, the better you get”
