Audio Rant: How to Be Happy
Not everyone can be the #1 in their space and that’s OKAY. It all just needs to map back to what you want and what makes you happy. If Basketball is your passion but if you have no shot in being in the NBA, I can assure you’d be far happier making $80K doing something basketball-related than $150K doing something that’s not. Get it? When you get to do what you want to do and that makes you happy, you’ve won.

Mobile Talk at #SXSW with Bonin Bough
This was a heated conversation at SXSW between me and my main man, Bonin Bough, C-level exec and host of CNBC’s Cleveland Hustles with LeBron James. At this talk we discuss brands texting consumers, email newsletters, the importance of time, virtual currency, and personalization when it comes to branding. This one gets heated because we butt heads quite a bit but I’m a big believer in that everything needs to be debated and that’s why this one’s a winner.

Audio Rant: Legacy in the Digital Age
The fact that my great, great grandchildren are going to be the ones who think I am the first person of our family tree just because of the content I’ve produced is an extremely meaningful thing and it can’t be taken lightly. How many of you can say they were impacted by their great, great grandparents? Thought so. And knowing that, I need to be the barometer for what the Vaynerchuk name carries. We’re all on the record for the rest of time so let’s make sure we act like it when we put ourselves out there.

An Interview with The Drum in London
This one is all-time fire. I was lucky enough to sit with The Drum in an intimate setting in front of 100 people for what is sure to be one of my best interviews. We cover a lot but at the top of the list is Virtual Reality, the thought of everyone being a media company, and the true worth of a 'personal brand.' Save this one for your longer commutes (or workouts) because you're not going to want to cut this short ;)

Audio Rant: How I Find Time for Myself
This question always trips me up because the truth is that what many perceive as my 'work,' I look at as my free time. I've made mine. I could do anything in the world and what I choose to do is build businesses. It’s my game. It’s my hobby. It’s what I want to do with my time. It's what I love and I implore you to work to do what makes you happy. That’s the whole thesis behind 'Crush It' - building a living based on something you love and are passionate about.

There's Only a Few Ways to Run a Business
This is a one-on-one discussion I had with a young entrepreneur out in London. He was in the early days of his business trying to scale without having much infrastructure to support his goals. At the end of the day, it just boiled down to understanding his strengths and shortcomings. Some necessary tough love here but one that many young and aspiring entrepreneurs need to here.
