      Elliot Scott Dating I'm 22. And I'm going to graduate in next year. What I have to do with my life?
      Girl or money?
      More girls with more sex or just one girl and no sex?

    My notes:
    1. Micro speed, macro patience
    2. Play the long-term, no fast cash blitz
    3. Work extremely hard on only one thing
    4. Don't keep your head on the goal, but on the process. Don't mind what they say.
    5. Work work work. No daydreams, no Instragram, no bullshit. I spend more time playing in a weekend than Gary V spent his entire 20s having fun.
    6. Compare yourself only to yourself. Don't care about other people's early successes. They have the rich parents DLC, chase the fast cash --- totally irrelevant to you. Everyone else is irrelevant.
    7. Do not flex. You can't trick, bullshit the winners. You can only trick the losers. No winner thinks you're winning. The winners will smoke you out of your bullshit.

I don't think she really got it until the very end when Gary asked for her Instagram handle and made it public to the "Vayner Nation". She got 8,000 new followers in a week, all holding her accountable to what she said she would do.
      We all tell ourselves similar stories. We all need accountability. I think this video has two and a half million views because Taylor's problem is universal. We all see ourselves in her.

    *The ultimate advice for every 20 year old THAT WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE
    Spending your whole 20s hustling without any free time is so ridiculous if you don't want to be really rich. There needs to be a balance, otherwise you'll have your 20s spend doing nothing but getting money and you'll regret it. You can always get money, but you won't ever get your 20s back. Don't go too hard on you in your 20s, money will come and if you got it, you'll want more. There's no end to money, but there's an end to time, so choose wisely.

I have money but lol it's not that much that I get to stop working and start spending. Whereas those who spent their time in their teens enjoying are very well connected and help each other out in their biz or grab a new job opportunity. Trust me money is waste.

    Watching Gary tear into the girl at the beginning reminds me so much of my high school principal yelling at me about how I’m worthless and will never amount to anything bc I had trouble staying awake in the morning and drew doodles during class. The only advice he gave me to improve anything was “take sleeping pills and force yourself to act normal”. His advice led me to be pretty miserable and the way he delivered it left me with anxiety issues that required therapy. My life only started to get better when I said “fuck this I know what I want”. Now I make $3 extra an hour bc turns out we still need overnight workers and most people aren’t happy doing it which makes my weird sleep schedule a valuable attribute. I also wound up getting a job thats creative work making fancy desserts, which I love and not everyone can do, and make extra money on the side as a children’s book illustrator.
    Point is this type of self help def does hurt people and actually is really counterintuitive bc not only do the traits you’re asked to give up tend to benefit you due to their rarity but honestly what is the point of being rich and successful if you waste your whole life and don’t enjoy yourself on the way? Best case you’re miserable for most of your adult life and make it big in time to spend a few years with a fragile body and money you won’t have time to spend, worse case you save for years and die before you can do anything with it. By all means save up and be financially responsible, but dont think of money as something you want just to say you have it; go on vacation, go to a show, buy a game, just let yourself enjoy things. Life is short. I wasted 20 years only to find out I’m prob not gonna live to 50.

    Look man, this all sounds great and makes a lot of sense.....but it's not realistic. You have to balance it all or you will have major regrets and be very miserable. Even Gary said that he wished he had fun every once in awhile. Having friends and fun is very valuable for "real life" situations like moving, asking advice, favors, etc. Very rich and successful people have been known to kill themselves because they simply weren't happy. The main component of this is wasted time. You have to find balance between Love, Health, Happiness, Wealth, & Freedom.

I’m doing the wrong way ever since. So now I’m embracing minimalism and just be happy with the simple things. Just trust the process, don’t rush things, and never compare yourself to someone. Focus on yourself growth. :)

      I said that once. It took me years to break the habit. I managed to overcome it in the end, although I still catch myself slacking time to time, like now, I'm replying to this post when I should be doing something more worth my time. The solution I found is to start getting things done. Stop wasting time planning what your going to do because that's fantasy fiction in your head. Spend 5 minutes bullet pointing a few things you can get done in the next 4-8 hours you have available. Then do it, no matter what. It's not easy, it's hard and it feels shit to begin with. You need to put it into physical practise on a daily basis to develop the new habit. That's step one. If you think about doing it, you won't do it - that's where I spent 7 years messing up and feeling down about it. Changing your routing takes practise, therefore time and effort. Do it or don't. I don't care if you impress me by changing or not, but you do. It's your call. Now get off the net like I'm about to do right after I hit the reply button and get shit done. Don't even waste time replying to this message, I don't even want to see a quick "thanks". Get off your ass and move NOW - period!

    @brebytheway 7 років тому +19

    I really related to this. Honestly, I turned on this video while I was cleaning, not expecting to actually watch the whole thing because it's 17 minutes but then I found myself sitting down and then found myself opening a word document and taking notes! One thing that really struck me was when Gary said that he wants the process of working to get the New York Jets more than actually owning them. I only wish I had something like that.
    I'm 21 and I have several things that I just love to pieces and would love to try full time. Cooking, farming, childcare, video editing, cinematography, screenwriting, fiction writing, even ministry and teaching. I feel like I could pursue anyone of those and be really fulfilled by that work and my problem winds up being what do I chose? I'm leaning towards screenwriting but with a strong video production emphasis- basically I'm thinking if I could just make scripted content on youtube and then somehow live off of that and be able to fund bigger and bigger projects- that would be amazing. Because I think what I care about the most about storytelling is being able to tell the best story I think I'm capable of without having to worry too much about what the producer wants. I want to be able to make my stories and find an intelligent, imaginative audience that would enjoy them as much as I want to make them.
    But I'm terrified. I'm paralyzed. What if I run out of ideas? What if it turns out I'm unoriginal, stale, and just really, really bad at this? What if I make something objectively terrible? What if it's too much stress for me and I burn out? What if I can't do this and I have to live with my parents for the rest of my life because I have no idea how to make a decent amount of money? I think it's hard to not care what other people think when you're in a creative field where your livelihood is completely dependent on other people's likes and preferences.
    And maybe I should just go and work for someone else, like Pixar but not as prestigious. Should I work towards that instead? Instead of building an audience, just work on a portfolio and networking? Or should I do all three? Or just two?
    It stresses me out because I feel like I have no time. I'm going to school because I have to get a degree as a fall back option. I am part of this tuition waiver program that basically waives tuition which is great but I still feel like I have to get a 4.0 because my parents might move which would mean I'd no longer be eligible for the program and they might not pay for my school because... they really, really don't agree with my choice of major and field. They don't even pay for my textbooks. They, especially my mom, think I'm entitled and lazy. They are scared for me and don't think I have a future in filmmaking. And they're not wrong.
    I've been given everything in my life and I've only worked because I wanted more than what I got and wanted to have independence. And while I've always had a knack for writing and constantly been starting projects, I've never stuck with anything long enough to produce anything tangible from it whether that be an award, an audience, or even, sadly, a finished draft. It was only when I was 19 that I actually finished finished a short story and it took me nearly six months. Six months! Man. So, when they're afraid that I don't have what it takes to do the work necessary for this field, it's completely understandable. I don't even know if I can do this and support myself with it. And I am entitled. They bought me my car, pay my insurance, and my phone bill, and, of course, they feed and house me. I don't know what it's like to work for 40 hours a week, go to school, and use all that money for bills and tuition.
    I have been working though, moving from babysitting to retail and fast food. Right now I'm working around 30 hours a week. I use the money from the job to pay for textbooks, gas, and save half of it. I feel like I need something in savings as a buffer so I don't feel like I have no savings and anything could make me go under. And I feel like I need money to invest in equipment and everything.
    I also am super sentimental. I just have to spend time with my parents, siblings, and grandparents. And with friends. I feel like I should be making friends. Although, over the past few years, it just hasn't been coming easily for me... I've moved to different states several times over the past few years and just haven't been getting out of my shell.
    So between work and school and family and trying to make friends I have no time to actually work on any of my creative projects. And I just realized something that I haven't before- this balancing act is killing me. I *need* to tell stories like my body needs my heart to keep beating. Huh. I didn't realize it was that important to me that clearly until now, lol.
    I'm actually running off of like 6 hours of sleep and have homework I should've done... but I watched this video and wrote this instead. And I think it really helped. I'm not sure what I'm going to do. I think it boils down to not caring what other people think and working and not psyching myself out. I think I'm going to definitely get my hours at work down to 18 a week. Maybe I can work towards quitting. Or I could just quit. I'm going to start just making stuff more. I'm not going to convince my parents that I'm going to be ok. I'm just going to be ok. I'm going to let my work be my primary consolation and encouragement, and start sharing it and meeting more people, trying to find a mentor and someone at my level that can help me and that I can help too. I wish I could not stress so much about getting perfect grades but I just am too scared to do that. Maybe I can work towards that too.
    So...... this comment has been a ridiculously long internet journey for me but I feel like I might as well post it? Um, I'm going to go rethink my life a little more and make some changes.

    I don't understand why people are so envious of others because they reached success before them, even if they're only in their 20's. I've wanted to become an entrepreneur since I was like 7; trying sell my unwanted toys to other kids in school. I even remember asking why certain gas stations and restaurants didn't have multiple locations so they'd double their money lol. I was around 16-17 when I started seeing stories about 20 year olds becoming owners of million dollar companies. I was the complete opposite of envious and jealous. I was inspired! That's when the fire really started to burn inside of me. Like damn, if these kids can do it, I know I can put in the work and do it also. Since then, I've been on a journey of self growth, learning all I can about business, my industry, and personal growth. I'm 21 now and about to launch my first business, I'm not sure how it'll go, but I won't stop until I'm seeing some kind of profit. I'm still super young and I know there's so much more to learn, but I'm pretty sure I know just enough to get my foot in the door. I feel like if see profit; even just a hundred dollars, I'll be addicted to this game like a fein on crack.

    I'm 21 and I am trying to get my shit together.
    My life is always a mess. But this year was the worst, battling with depression , I had a surgery ,my best friend died. I've been close to give up life so many times but for some reason I'm still here. I will try my best to achieve at least some of my goals in this life. After all death is going to happen anyway so I might as well do my best until then.
    Oh and I don't want to be a millionaire or anything like that...I only want to be happy for once and to feal my life has a purpose.

      Purpose is what every human needs. Along with genuine love. This trick is to build on your purpose, try to find love
      and money to support your passions along the way.

      Sometimes being alive is enough of a reason to be happy and proud of urself :D , if u look in a simple way of thinking just be happy that u were one sperm to make it to "being born" out of the 200million that didnt make it.
      Never give up ,just be what u really want to be not what others want u to be.
