is not because I want to be a fucking motivational speaker

and fluffy, fluff, fluff and ra-ra-ra, it's because

it's the fucking thing!

♫ We're unstoppable

- Yo, yo, yo, what up, vlog?

Busy day today, didn't really film anything

on this Friday, just work, work, work, work, work.

Did film an Ask Gary V, how did that go, Seth,

was it a good Ask Gary V?

- Great one.

- Awesome, nonetheless, gave a talk in Portland

a couple weeks ago to Dutch Bros coffee company,

it turned into an epic, I mean an epic.

D. Rock, how long was it?

- Two and a half hours.

- So, this is gonna be a two-and-a-half hour episode

of DAILYVEE?

Two and a half hour episode of DAILYVEE,

touched on a ton of new content, I think you guys

are gonna super-enjoy it and sit back,

pour a glass of wine from the Gary V. Wine Club,

oh wait, what, you're not part of the Gary V. Wine Club?

D. Rock, are you part of the Gary V?

You are, Seth, are you part of the--

- Not yet.

- Let's welcome to the stage, Mr. Gary Vaynerchuk.

(audience cheering)

- Hello.

Thank you.

Thanks.

All right, let's go, let's go, sit down, let's do this.

- [Audience] Gary, Gary, Gary!

- What up?

What up, what up, what up?

Thank you for having me, thank you so much for the awesome

intro and reaction, very frankly, how are we doing

the Q&A, where is the Q&A gonna come from?

You guys have runners?

Awesome, cool, I just can't wait to get to the Q&A,

so I just wanted to get that out real quick.

And the reason why I want to do the Q&A

to be very frank, is I think I get to speak a lot

and when I think about speaking, at the end of the day,

I'm trying to reverse-engineer the audience, right?

To me, as a lot of you know, how many people here

have seen some of my content online, raise your hands?

Thank you, actually, real quick, how many of you have not,

raise your hands, okay, fuck you guys.

(laughing)

Kidding, kidding, kidding.

So, for about 70% of you, you guys have seen the content

and I'll go through certain things that I want to talk

to you guys about, for the 30% or 40% of you

that just raised your hands that you haven't,

you can go to YouTube or Facebook and see this,

so what's super-important to me is to make this talk

contextual and when I think about this audience,

and whether it's of age or mindset,

the youth in the offense of this organization

is super-attractive to me, from afar, right?

For me, I'm 41, I'm old, but I feel 16 in my mind,

right, and I work like I'm 19, you know,

in my prime, because I'm on the offense.

It's a mindset.

And so the thing that I want to first start with

is intangibles, right?

I've been thinking about this quite a bit,

and let me tell you why this is the first thing I want

to start with, yesterday, for some of you that know,

I'm a ridiculously die-hard Jets fan, right?

And yesterday, the Jets fucked me up

because they won a football game.

So for some of you that aren't into football,

my strategy for this season was to go 0 and 16

and take a quarterback with the first pick

and so I literally was in the stands yesterday

in New York, really upset as my team was dominating

an arch rival in the Miami Dolphins and all the fans

around me were pissed because I was booing

when the Jets were doing good shit,

and it was fucking awkward, okay?

But here's what happened.

The Jets took a player this year by the name of Jamal Adams

out of LSU and he basically was disproportionately

impactful on the game yesterday without doing anything

that you would normally consider a turning point.

He didn't have an interception for a touchdown,

he didn't do any of the things that would show up

in the stats sheets that would make you say,

oh he won the game as a defensive back,

what he did was intangibles.

What he did was, the hour before the game,

the way he interacted with all his teammates

didn't look anything like a kid playing his third game

of his life in pros, it looked like a 16-year veteran

doing the little things.

What he did was, on every play when the Dolphins

made a mistake or an off-side, he basically looked

at the entire crowd, which was half-empty and would get them

excited, what he did was when a teammate came off

the field that made a nice play on special teams,

he ran over and gave him dapps.

He literally, fundamentally willed the vibe of the game

to go in the direction that created the outcome.

I am not physically structured to win all my competitive

battles through my life.

Yet, when I think about all the one-on-one basketball

games or the floor hockey matches or ping pong

matches or tennis or football or whatever,

like 80% of the time when I fucking win something

in a physical confrontation sporting event

it's because I used intangibles to mentally outmaneuver

or disproportionately figure out how to win.

I am fascinated, fascinated by this.

I am fascinated by fucking mindset, I am fascinated

in a complicated world that we're all growing up in,

it's a binary decision if you're gonna be positive

or negative about shit.

I'm fascinated that when you're addicted to kindness

and optimism and positivity, it just, you know,

it's so funny.

You know stuff like the secret,

I love when people talk about like the secret,

people think you sit on your ass on your couch

and you're like, "I wish I had a million bucks"

and it's like, bloop and it just shows up.

What I'm fascinated by is the reason people succeed

that put their mindset into it is because it does something

that has really also caught my attention over the last two

years, which is the following.

When you bet on optimism, when you're on the offense,

when you're playing towards intangibles,

you do something super-duper interesting.

You start suffocating excuses.

If you asked me what the number one things is

that I'm thankful for that my parents gave me,

taking me from a communist country and moving me to the US.

You know, parenting me well, nothing bad,

you know, roof and clothes, all good stuff,

if you asked me the number one thing I wake up

every morning and thank that my parents did

is that I never saw either one of them complain

about jack shit and they basically created learned

behavior for me, I'm incapable of actually complaining

about shit.

And that has become the foundation of my success.

When I was in my 20s and early 30s, I spent

eight, 15, 16, 17 hours a day for 13 years, building

my dad's liquor store for him,

I own nothing of Wine Library, right,

I leave that business in my mid-30s, I've no wealth,

I've built a 60-million dollar wine business

for my dad and I don't sit there and complain,

I think about it as I did the right thing by thanking

my parents and giving back.

Literally, literally, no joke, if I leave this conference

today, right now, if I leave, right, if we do this,

we have a nice little Q&A, it's a good talk,

it's fucking cool, I leave, I go to cross a street

to go into my car, to go to the airport,

and I get hit by a car, literally as I'm laying there,

I'd be like fuck, I shouldn't have left the conference

that early.

It is in my mindset that literally every negative thing

that happens to me is my fucking fault.

I recognize that that's not true, you know,

when I talk about this publicly,
