MicroVee : The Four Steps That Lead to Real Success | GaryVee Rant

0:00Hey everybody, welcome back to another episode of the Gary V Audio Experience. In this one, Gary's breaking down one of his new acronyms, love. It's not about romance. It's about four core pillars that Gary's going to dive into. My favorite part of this one is when Gary calls out the phrase, I'm gonna, and he explains why he hates it. If you're in your early 20s or just starting out in your career at any age, this is the kind of real talk you need. And if you're older, this might be the reminder that you've been avoiding. I hope you all enjoy this one. Love. You know, I like breaking down the letters, and I do think learning is huge.

0:33I think the L in love. Learning is underrated. I don't think people, excuse me, I'm about to sneeze, keep this in, don't edit it. For all the people that come from the part of the world that I come from, you know that I'm onto something because that sneeze means what I'm about to say is true. I think the reason I tell so many people to be admins or interns for the CEO is get close to the sun. You both have felt this. You especially have felt this, Sid. I just think you learn so much you know I think the best piece of advice I could give somebody 22 to 28 is go work somewhere for somebody who's a juggernaut in what you want to be who gives a fuck how much you make fucking live shitty because those three four years you'll be set up especially if you're good so I think learning is huge I constantly am learning I'm obsessed with it it's why I'm always listening I'm always trying to learn what humans care about of the moment right O it's like I'm doubling down here folks learning and observing is basically the same shit for me which is like pay attention like why why curiosity is such a fucking powerful framework I'm always observing I'm doing it right now show what I'm watching right now I'm literally watching this keynote with no sound that I'm about to give but I'm watching how the audience is reacting and I'm literally observing learning and it's gonna affect how I talk literally in an hour and so always watch like be curious like if you're into selling stuff to the consumer when you're on an airplane watch how people board what are they looking at when you're like you know at a restaurant like pay attention like i watch how people look at menus like just observe watch learn learn observe those first two letters of love you're setting yourself up uh in a huge way bringing value the v early on comes in a lot of shapes and sizes for a lot of kids early on it's just about out grinding everybody else right like what you have at 23 is energy what you have is you're living humbly what you have is you don't have a family normally at 23 obviously some people start early but you you have tenacity you have humility you have grit the unstoppable nature of 18 to 30 is nothing to lose everything to gain um your expenses have not come up yet from a place of like providing for four kids and a spouse so you have the ability to provide value in your humility but you might have value in different ways you might work for a company that is marketing to 15 to 25 year olds and you should have a substantially better pulse on that given that you're in that demo and around that demo you might have grown up in a family that is incredibly into architecture and you work in a company that's doing architecture so you might be skilled shit at 22 I knew everything about wine or not really but fuck loads and so trying to find ways that you can provide value um is very very important and I think grit and and really grind and hustle like those are big things and so but there might be different ways you can provide value like taking notes or cleaning out someone's inbox or supporting them in a different ways so there's just a lot of ways and it can be very highbrow because you're just a genius like that or it could be very humble and you just need someone around you needs that grunt work and just try to find value observe your situation and figure out what someone's not doing that the boss or the leader wants not what you want biggest mistake that people do with value is they try to provide something that they want to provide that isn't valuable to the decision maker value you is based on what they want, not what you want to give.

4:28And finally, E, boy, do we like to talk. We have fallen in love with the posture. People love to act successful. People like to talk about what they're gonna. Fucking I'm gonna is like one of my least favorite two-word combos to start a sentence. How about instead of saying I'm gonna, you shut the fuck up and do, and then tell everyone I did. You know what's a lot better than I'm gonna? I did. And so execution will be forever the vulnerability of so many of you. Execution is what almost everybody tries to avoid. Boy, do they try to avoid it. It's hard. It's work. People want the trophies. They don't want the practice.

5:23And so, love. That's how I break it down. Hey everybody, actually, if this podcast has ever meant anything to you, please go to Spotify or Apple right now and leave a review. By the way, even if you give me a one-star review because you think it's shit, I respect it. But just leave a review, an actual review. Four or five stars and the actual details of why. Yeah, that would mean something for me. So thanks. Now back to the podcast.
