Today's video is an interview I did on Office Hours with @DavidMeltzer We talk about how the stigma around being an entrepreneur has changed over the years, how to balance work and family life, how to stop judging yourself, why I want people to live with the littlest amount of anxiety possible, why holding grudged is not practical and how to attach your self worth to the right things. — #garyvee #davidmeltzer #podcast Thanks for watching!

Intro

some days are going to be a 15-hour day when you have a business because what people that don't have businesses don't realize is your business is the other child you know and it's also the child that feeds your actual child and so you know I think that people are like oh man like they can never say like oh my God I'm gonna pick my business over my child but the reality is there's not an entrepreneur planet that hasn't in the micro not in the macro and so it's a game of not beating yourself up brother like you have God willing the next 70 years at least maybe 80 given how young you are in modern medicine to spend time with that child you know nobody wants to miss an hour here or now we're there who wants to miss their kids first step or their first word nobody wants to miss a recital or a big game and you fight for those things I always welcome to office hours I'm

Welcome to Office Hours

those things welcome to office hours I'm David Meltzer and I'm giddy because I have what some people think is my best friend he's actually said he was my best friend I put it I made him say it and we quoted it but Gary vaynerchuk is on office hours garyvee as most people know him welcome to office hours my friend it's really nice to be with all of you thank you for having me you're amazing so um I was sharing with everybody entrepreneurship and how it's changed over the years to be an entrepreneur Gary when I was young was like being an actor if you told someone I'm an entrepreneur regardless how successful you were they're like so you wait tables right and you know thankfully I met you and I have to admit I was in the Nike suite at the Super Bowls it'll be five it'll be six Super Bowls coming up to meet his brother about a sports agency deal and he came in and people Went Crazy Dave he's here garyvee's here and I literally said what's a garyvee and I thought maybe it was a fourth round draft pick that I missed but he has truly created a brand for entrepreneurs a heroic brand and I think Gary my question is at a core everyone's talking about this Lego video that here's a guy who's leading the way of Entrepreneurship and yet you're talking about like two thousand dollars that you made on eBay for Legos you know what is it in your personality there's a definition of a serial entrepreneur you don't give a [ __ ] about how big the project is you are completely obsessed with the idea of buying and selling and creating margins and I'm obsessed with the responsibility of having people be attached to the message that I'm putting out there beautiful in a time where I'm incredibly concerned about interest rates and how much VC money there is and consumer confidence knowing that people have all sorts of stuff in their house that's worth money or the ability to go to a garage sale tomorrow and buy stuff that's worth money inspires me and whether it's closing a 25 million dollar deal for vaynermedia or buying something for a dollar and selling it for seven dollars on eBay for me it's one in the same game and when you have millions of people following you tens of I I'm surprised by how many people don't understand you have the responsibility of providing value to them not them giving you likes and follows and so for me to your point I'll be as excited to make a video about a CNBC article about flipping Legos as I will about telling people four years ago that if they bet the farm on Tick Tock things can work out for them and everything in between and um while it's now 4 42 p. m on the East Coast as we're filming this while spending I don't know six hours today with Fortune 100 companies on their macro Global Marketing plans and so I have a lot of flexibility in my entrepreneurship now that I got the gray hairs and I try to use all those skills on a daily basis you're amazing chance

Balancing Business and Family

oh Gary love you man you have just given me the permission to just promote content and just put it out there and get the message out there and you've been an inspiration for me and my entrepreneurial Journey for so long so I'm honored to be here uh and ask you some questions so I'm a new father uh I have a one-year-old and I'm also our business is growing very quickly and so I know you go all in with your business and you're all over the place on the road a ton how do you balance that with your kids your family uh that I just that's a big question for me by not over judging myself and by being aware that it's going to ebb and flow you know um some days are going to be a 15-hour day when you have a business because what people that don't have businesses don't realize is your business is the other child you know and it's also the child that feeds your actual child and so you know I think that people are like oh man like they can never say like oh my God I'm gonna pick my business over my child but the reality is there's not an entrepreneur on the planet that hasn't in the micro not in the macro and so it's a game of not beating yourself up brother like you have God willing the next 70 years at least maybe 80 given how young you are in modern medicine to spend time with that child and so you know nobody wants to miss an hour here now where they are who wants to miss their kids first step or their first word nobody wants to miss a recital or a big game and you fight for those things I always but if the occasional scenario pops up where I don't have the opportunity to attend something because there's a critical moment in a business that is very important I'm not going to beat myself up and say that I'm not a good dad and you know I didn't even see my dad the first 13 years of my life because he worked so much because we just came to America and he's the best dad and we have the greatest relationship so I'm as you can imagine I'm not scared of it yeah no thank you and you know I had that conversation

On Team Well

with my wife I was like babe we're on team well and like when you're at home and you're taking care of the kid and yes those are those harder times when I'm away you're allowing me to go out there and have impact and meet people and change the world and be able to build our Legacy and so when you think about it in that form like that's really helped our relationship grow to that next level like Hey we're doing this together we're having impact together even though you're sitting home with the child and I'm out you know hanging out with David melter and being able to speak with you and get the message out so it's like we're still just all rowing in the same direction and but realistic by the way oh by the way like the luck the incredibleness of raising a child is way cooler than talking to garyvee and David Meltzer for

Raising Children

sure and but to that same point when your kids get older and I have three teenage 23 21 and 18 and one actually works with me now you know just be realistic they don't want to F and spend all their time with you either you know I beg for two minutes a day and I'm cool with it yeah well that starts transitioning around 13 where kids become the their friends become their primary life not their parents so I will say for young parents you know milk as much as you can out of one through thirteen Dave I'm sure you feel this I already feel it in ways milk is much of that time when we were the center of their world because you're right it flips you know for value of pairing I mean there's only I mean at this point in my career the only person I can think of that doesn't pick up my call is my daughter yeah she sees your name and she's an Fu button to my dad exactly because my dad is my favorite person now and yeah I totally was just like oh my God my dad and now it's like Dad let's go to lunch around Collins go ahead so no I believe that I appreciate that sentence and I know that but in those in-betweens you know and so it's just a big game of not over judging yourself is really what we're all talking about here and the next guy is

Future of NFTs

going to ask you a question I wanted to get you together with because they have an extraordinary company doing extraordinary things in fact I think they even have a Michael Bay movie for you or something so we gotta after the show make sure you get that introduction column but for sure so Gary apart from selling Legos on eBay you're obviously uh most known for nfts which you said of our game too and uh I just want to get your opinions on the future of the nft market because it's changed radically in the last year or two and I see so much more maturation in the market as well um we're you know bringing we're democratizing concerts and bringing them to everyone around the world working with A-list artists like Snoop Dogg and like Alicia Keys and bringing them into the world of web 3 and exploring how they can reach new people and engage with new audiences and interact with their fans using you know the power of nfts um I think the days of the super expensive pfps are you know more or less behind us and now it's all about you know community and club membership but I just Gary I kind of wanted to understand for me where you think it's going in the future and uh and what we're going to see over the next you know short to medium term I don't even think about um so I don't think I have the best guesses I think I was awfully right that 99 of the projects were going to go to zero when I was yelling about that a year ago in the height of the hype because it wasn't sustainable but the long term is very clear nfts are digital contracts um that have utility or rights underneath them in the smart contract and they will become a way of life no different than apps and social media and email and I think the consumer blockchain will do for transactions what the internet did for communication and so I don't have a whole lot of thoughts about the short term I said 4 000 times a year ago and the nft market right now is exactly what happened with internet 99 there'll be a crash there'll be two or three years of load them and then the next generation of major companies will pop up from that you know low just like we saw with Amazon and Google and all that stuff and we're right on track you know everybody's asking me about the market and I've said the same thing I'm saying when the market was ripping hot that I am now the there'll be one percent projects that are really meaningful some of them will be about collectibility the Andy Warhols and the Jackson Pollocks and the Michael Jordan rookie cards and the rare sneakers and the coins and the Rolexes and the rare cars they'll be a part in nft land for sure but the 99 will be about the contracts the access tickets the receipts the membership clubs and um I think we're on track wonderful so

Persian Culture

Gary I have loved you for many years I've been following you and listening to the stuff that you're spitting out and just like that man is [ __ ] awesome and then but then I didn't think I could love you more but then you had a Persian girlfriend and you know as persons we stick together and I was like okay he is the [ __ ] I literally went to my husband and I was like he's dating a person look and then I'm scrolling through her stuff and I'm like Stephen a lot of [ __ ] he was like that's because you're the devil and I'm like Gary thinks versions are awesome he was just like oh my God okay I won Mary won I'm like we're [ __ ] phenomenal so I have one serious question and then one kind of silly one what is it about uh her culture that you love the most what's your favorite thing funny like the Persian culture in the Russian culture share a lot of things caviar tea like you know family oriented respect your elders very family so I would say that I've always you know Russian and Persian culture have a long history of having a lot of similarities including both were incredibly beautiful countries that had very aggressive revolutions uh you know Russia's lasted from 1917 to 1989 1991 depending on when you think that USSR fell you know obviously there's so much going on in Iran right now it fell to a revolution in 1979 and so there's a lot of connection points um I feel very close to that's beautiful I mean even Nikolai volkov and the Iron Sheik were tag team partners

Balance

you always could take it where you want to go I know so I had a serious question if I may yeah I thought that one was seriously well that one was mostly like I just want to understand I know as I'm you know burning his mouth with tea I have to put an ice cube in for him um that being said my serious question was earlier you said that we have to be kinder to ourselves and if it made me wonder do you believe in balance or Harmony in our lives in our businesses everywhere that we operate I think both words are just semantics the answer is yes I believe in harm I love when I'm like I wish you a joyous day and then in my Twitter they're like oh I'm sorry I wish you a happy day and then in the third reply my Twitter's like [ __ ] happiness you should go for Joy right we're saying the same [ __ ] right like I Believe In Harmony I Believe In Balance I Believe In Joy but like what's one's harm like balance is impossible like everyone's like you need balance I'm like cool what's your balance yeah because my balance is different what's one's Joy one's one to happiness what I want is at its core what's become very tangible to me is I want people to live their life with as little anxiety as humanly possible the way I do when I look at myself today and look at everybody around me and when I mean around me very close to me but then the next layer of my family then my co-workers then my friends then the hardest core fans them casual fans I'm looking at a lot of groups of people and like when I say to myself like what's the most different thing about me is the percentage of my time that my stomach feels anxiety the number is almost non-existent and I mean almost non-existent for the year in a world where I watch almost everyone I know have percentages during every day some 80 of their day even inversely before and so I am obsessed with being a communicator to try to change people's perspectives because living life with anxiety nerves insecurity concern fear dwelling indifference apathy is really like not the way to play this gift called life Gary how do you like I'm going into some spiritual crazy pieces in my mind that are practical like oh wait a minute maybe the answer is if you're not happy you have to go crazy simplistic and like move to Peru and work on a farm because then you just reset the whole thing and get into a simple State because a stunning amount of people that live a very simple life with very little income in second and third world countries have remarkable happiness all the time and so if you're not cut out for the muscle and bustle of a first world country then cool who gives a [ __ ] just because I am I don't think that makes me special or good I just think it fits my DNA but for you maybe you should go to and lived there full time like I'm really like going there like I'm really challenging my self to figure [ __ ] out the world and then talk about it like I'm into it that's what I want to do so we're so it's interesting because I've kind of just done that

Life in Dubai

um yeah I'm Irish but I live I've been living in four years in Dubai and don't get me wrong it's incredible place and it's the hustle bustle and the glitz and the Glam but I moved to Brazil and you know it's a long way away from Dubai but my health has improved my happiness has improved my work-life balance is so much better um and you know yeah I can be on the in Dubai on this incredible Beach drinking a 20 beer but I'm just as happy on plastic Furniture drinking a two dollar beer you know surrounded by a whole lot more normal people and it is reinvigorating I mean I am I understand that more you know and for me living this high intensity life is like laying on a plastic piece of furniture drinking a zero dollar beer like it's all like I don't even I'm not attached to my career my notoriety my financial success I'm not attached to it I have no self-worth tied up in garyvee or Gary vaynerchuk the entrepreneur my self-worth is fully and utterly 100 attached to how I treat human beings wow and you live that but it's

The definition of success

interesting Gary because you have to evolve to that and I think people want to cheat themselves on the steps that it takes and so I meet religious people well David I'll tell you I would argue that I didn't evolve into it that of course I did to your point but I've always been it what I mean by that is I'm trying to tell people like you and I David grew up in the generation where the world told you what success was right I never got caught in it because I was weird from the get I talk a lot about having my fingers and my ears and being weird about school right [ __ ] school and everyone thinks that's kind of cool what people understand that they don't think is as cool is I did that for the definition of success like I didn't think I needed a fancy car or a fancy house or a Rolex like I treated The Glitz and glamor of capitalism the same way I treated school which is you're both full of [ __ ] yeah I wish I did yeah it yet the anxiety

Being at ease

part that there has to be I think an education itself that it's not a matter of how much anxiety you put towards or attach emotion to an outcome that you're not there yet and there has to be some sort of uh look at the journey and you know I watch Gary a lot not for the content itself but for that idea of being at ease while everyone thinks you're not like if you take a brand and say this guy goes out and he's like a pit bull in a china shop no he's actually Buddhist if you really examine not the con like the words but understand that like he's on a mission to change the world knowing that all Tides move to the lowest point of humility and although the daily activities seem very rigorous he's at ease and that's how even last night Gary we were at dinner and everyone's like you're 54 years old how do you have more energy than me and I said well we all have the same energy you're interfering with it right you interfere with the need to be right offended separate inferior Superior 100 I I've been on this hot kick lately with my content I'm on a new you know you get caught on certain things you want to talk about this concept of grudges is on my mind in a way that you can't imagine this concept of grudges might be the most reverse thing I've like I'm really tapped in right now people hold a grudge and actually think the person they're holding the grudge against is getting hurt right but they're getting eaten alive by holding the grudge it's profound to me and that goes into energy if you're spending all your energy paying attention to the person that you're mad at to hope that they are more hurt because you're hurt by them you've got no energy for yourself to find your happiness I told you he's Buddhist

The future of education

all right who has the last question for G as we let him go um so I just want to know what are your thoughts on the future of Education a lot of us here talking about the Educational Systems broken here at abundance. io we teach people how to create Business Online trying to shorten that gap between um you know information download to being able to apply it and have some SEC some success in some fact or another I know that it's evolved to online a bit but where do you see the evolution of Education going in the next three to five years I think it's going to be small little steps a couple more people AKA thousands of ten thousand more people are going to take their kids homeschooling a couple more people AKA thousands to ten thousand people are gonna let their kids mail in the core education so that they can spend an hour or two when they get home on something that's digital but I think in a 15-year window in a 20-year window you're looking at substantial changes I believe gen Z call it 16 to 22 year olds today are the generation that won't make their kids go to college so maybe it's another 20 years where that they start having children and so then another 20 so you know kids people are having kids a little bit later they're 20 now let's just give it 10 18. I would say in 25 years you're going to see a substantial fall off the cliff moment of college uh college kids and I think that will trickle them down to high school and grammar school and I think the revolution the cat's out of the bag at this point and over the next three decades we will see transformation more vocational like we used to do it in the 50s parents are going to be more not ideological more practical so hey my kid loves being a mechanic like let them learn to be a mechanic now the reason I'm a great entrepreneur is my mom let me be an entrepreneur from 8 to 18. I came out guns are blazing at 20 you know people hear myself you know like I was a veteran by the time I was they're like wow at 22 you built your dad's business so fast how I was a [ __ ] 14-year veteran in business by then you know that's how and so I think we're going to see that I think we're gonna see more skill sets more Alternative Learning um it's just so obvious the world's changing rapidly yeah and we need more of garyvee and in case you didn't know what a garyvee was you now do and uh he has blessed us all Gary vaynerchuk I am honored to be your best friend at least for this show his best friend make sure you get that content the guy taught me this thing hi everyone Take Care thank you Gary okay thank you foreign
