click there make sure you follow the teamgaryvee instagram account tons of awesome [ __ ] there hope you enjoy this keynote go what am i on all right andy go get a good spot one thing i'm positive about is how roi negative complaining is and how much i'm trying to suffocate the practice of it it has been remarkably important to me in understanding that everything that i'm not happy about has is on me it's a remarkably interesting brain twist the amount of energy spent on things that you can't control versus being accountable to what you can control has been a huge separator for me in the last four or five years as i've dug deep and so if i was able to have a couple things happen out of this talk this morning one is just self-awareness just like do you actually know who you are so many people wishing there's something instead of understanding what they are number two is accountability no question the quickest way to happiness is accountability when people start looking for somebody else to be at fault whether it's the government or their aunt or some or their [ __ ] boss they always lose i really want to make sure that people leave here knowing who they are do you understand yourself do you actually have a situation where you judge yourself within yourself or do you allow other people's opinions to dictate your life there is nothing more difficult than navigating your life based on somebody else's opinion job thank you man thank you for this yeah i've always felt comfortable with it when i started vlogging and had drock film me there was already vlogging but like casey and others they were doing it themselves so me having a different human do it was three years ago was a little intense you're welcome you got it one life do something i think people take things for granted do you know it's you're more likely to win the lottery ten times than be alive i love that [ __ ] 400 trillion to one according to current scientists everybody in this room is likely to get by lightning seven times more likely than being alive that's great steve that's crazy you better out running with the bulls and running with that [ __ ] yeah you better off running with the bulls and running with that [ __ ] knock it out the park while i'm sitting and it's definitely way [ __ ] more competitive now than it was 18 months ago uh maybe even like six months ago yeah it makes sense what uh so i mean it's not from like the masses that you were talking to today what's the next [ __ ] it's on facebook no it's that it's contextual creative though yeah i think where we're getting better is like i'll like i told them and it really clicked recently for us because i've been on it but we haven't been executing on it i was like if we're gonna make content like literally in this uh green room an hour ago two hours ago i said to them no let me just make an ad and be like hey usc grads like did it and then you run it against usc grads yeah like it's just contextual yeah yeah it's less you know like the insta facebook and instagram are content platforms not advertising platforms when you run ads what you realize is you're at the no matter how math no matter how top nerd you are you're at the mercy of the creative yeah and when the creative kills the cost drops the engagement goes through the roof you get your you know your earned cpms go through the roof which drops down your actual cost yeah and so like relevant score all that stuff just the cost because if you're getting shares in word of mouth and you're getting an extra million impressions that you didn't pay for because of actual social media people forgot about that part well then the creative is the answer yeah it's a really good song to sew up what time is our flight 10 so i want to leave at 8 40. like 8 50 at the latest or talk some cash [ __ ] on these folks man let them know who the originators is in this [ __ ] because i got a lot of kids doing it in the rap game matter of fact i don't claim me that i was next you talking big in your pot trying to catch me in my new drop jfk with two shots i know that ain't how you uh i'm so up right now they feel so good free is best when you can do your thing i couldn't be more passionate about you going to downtown whatever wherever the [ __ ] you are now and like doing it for somebody like literally like hey pizza joe are you doing your front of your store just get it on ink the biggest issue for kids a lot of time is proof of concept free is an awfully tough thing to pass on one thing with free do something for free that lets you do what the [ __ ] you want to do free for the sake of free but the owner of the [ __ ] store doesn't let you do [ __ ] isn't good for you need a you need like louis vuitton you need like virgil to be like that's
