If it's the case then the laborers should be Billionaires Zuckerberg reached billions while he was in his 20's , so it depends, we cannot genralize that.
Evol klay Zuckerberg started coding in high school his he didn't went to play much, he worked when we' all didn't know what we want! So yeah he worked hard on something he loved and worked more than laborers 14-16 hours a day on his projects and then on Facebook
Yeah, but it didnt take him 20 years or something like that, plus their is more to his story , stealing ideas, project.... im not judging anyone... im juste giving a personal point of view which is sometimes and depending on the situations working smarter might be the solution as working harder might be the right one for some other ones.
First, I feel so bad for the guy/gal that had to go build 1-second shots of all Gary's videos, as an editor of my own youtube show I feel the pain of what that must have been like. That being said, I've been creating RUclips video's since 2008...every day of the week (filmed every Friday night). Three years ago I bought our affiliate company we used on our show. Three years later I've tripled or quadrupled sales on that online store to the point where it's tough to juggle this job with all the others I do. But I do it. I get people writing in with their youtube channel saying "man, you get so many views, I get like 5 on my video's and I've been doing it for almost a year." I have to laugh... these people have like 1,000 subscribers (many because I've told my audience to go follow them as has another larger channel) and they have over 1,000 subscribers when, at my nine month mark, I probably was pushing 200 subscribers and doing it without the help of any other channels referrals. I did have more views than they did, however, probably because I had the chops :) People see our show and think it was easy. It's easy to see someone else and put yourself into their position and say, "oh, I can do that." But, put in the work, and you find the story isn't always a glorious six months of parties and champagne.
+Common Man Cocktails DUDE- I live that same life. My channel has 56K subs... Everyone coming on "check out my channel" "check out my new video" They don't put in the work to have what you/we have. well said bro
+Common Man Cocktails That is hustle. I still have some catching up to do but like Gary says, I'll be doing what I'm doing for the rest of my life, no matter the struggle.
+New Future Builder I apply the work ethic to everything. In 2011 my son was diagnosed with Leukemia, we spent 55 days in the hospital. But you know what? We still did the show everyday; we only missed one week (that first week was all about adapting to our new lifestyle). Then, on week 2 my step mother would watch my son in the hospital and we'd film five new episodes. Then my wife would edit them during my shift at the hospital and I'd launch and promote them during her shift at the hospital. We took it day by day, just like any business. We didn't ask when it was over, when it gets good, when things turn around. We handled one task at a time day to day. Two years later he's back to full weight and playing linemen in his 4th grade football league. We didn't bitch, we didn't blame anyone or ourselves, we just handled whatever tasks come at you. So, for Gary who always worries about something bad happening in the family and their health. Yeah, it happened to me and we got through it, so I'm sure Gary would do the same. You can apply hustle to whatever challenge you have to deal with in life.
+Dustin's Fish Tanks I just got a spam link 5 minutes ago from someone that doesn't grasp the hustle. Now, had they introduced themselves to me and learned what I do, asked for advice, etc. Then became more than just a random name, perhaps I'd have helped them and even given them a shout out on our channel. But no, instead I just relegate them to the spam folder. It's like walking up to a group of friends at a cocktail party and screaming "I HAVE AN APP! I HAVE A RUclips CHANNEL, WATCH THIS!?" as the group just looks at that individual, shake's their head and turns around to walk away.
+Common Man Cocktails Always had a lot of respect for your hustle, Derrick. Glad to hear some of the success behind the scenes with the company. You guys deserve it.
This is why I spend at least a few minutes every day listening to something you do. I have been in my business for 20 years, but I have only been an owner for 3 years. I needed this today.... Thanks
I think the problem with most people (Myself included) is that we are so focused on the destination that we try to get there in one giant leap from the start and totally forsake the most important part, which is, the PROCESS!💎 This video always sets my mind right!
Gary it's taken me 20+ years to get to this point to not only agree with this video, but to say a huge THANK YOU for exposing what real work is. Most don't want to put this type of work in and give up. I say you are what you work! Thx man!!
My brother and I have our own business. We work constantly. I went to a concert til 4 am Saturday. Went home slept for 4 hours then went back to work. There's almost no easy money for us but hard work always pays off.
+dan fromYoungstown That's awesome! Just keep at it and no matter what DON'T quit. 'Hard work always pays off' is the exact quote I used at the end of my last RUclips video, best sentence to constantly keep in your head.
hey mate! I am also looking forward to start a business and I would love to talk to someone who has already done it. If you would too, then email me- akshayjoshi1117@gmail.com Thanks!
Men overestimate what they can do in a year. And underestimate what they can do in lifetime. That quote has changed my life. My perspective has widened and now I see everything clearer now. Things I have taken for granted now have value that I wouldn’t trade for the world and the goals I have been scrambling to accomplish for years I’m now knocking out one by one. I thank that quote. And I thank you Gary. You defined the grind. Respect. Keep the momentum.
Well said, Gary. As usual! Thomas Jefferson said that he believed in luck. In that the harder he worked, the more of it he found he had. The overnight success is born every morning. Every morning you wake up and hump it out just like you did the day before because you believe so freaking passionately about what you're doing that you can't freaking imagine every doing any other damn thing. Congratulations on your 1000 episode success, Brother. 1000 episodes. Here's to the next 1000! Thanks for all you do!
Straight dope!...this is gold. This really hits home because I've been watching Gary since the first episode, prior to WLTV, like when the website Cork'd was owned by Dan Cederholm (2006/2007 ish).... can't make this up. All work. Love this. This video is awesome.
5th time is the charm? My first business was successful in that it allowed me to write off the purchase of a PC on my taxes so in effect is cost me nothing - but I sucked at writing software, and sucked more at sales. My second business was a success in that as a tooling and design engineer I completed a dozen projects and the customers got exactly what they wanted for the price I quoted - but I sucked at job costing and made no money. My third business (I'm learning) I did the research and put in the time and created products people wanted and they'd pay a premium for - I still sucked at sales, but got better at job costing and made a little money. My 4th business (I'm learning), started out great, $1M our first year, Was looking at $3M our second year - but 911 came and scared 90% of our customers away - the business bled money to try to stay in business - downsized and moved it into my kitchen - spent every dime to try to see the light at the end of the tunnel - it was there, but too far off, ran out of money, lost my home, downsized the vehicle count to 1. My next business will be different - it will not be self financed and I will leverage every technology out there so that I can be successful. Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Snapchat for business, LinkedIn, RUclips, Medium, email - I'll be everywhere. I am not giving up - I will master this game if it kills me :)
Gary Vaynerchuk is partially right. It takes determination. But you have to have what the people want. You can't just make stuff and expect customers. I have a business plan, and a product, but timing has to be right and not on time, but just slightly early so I can get traction. Media is key in marketing, and I have to time that right too. Its too early to say if this will pan out, but so far, my market research says I need to keep going.
Talisman1957 Thanks for sharing your experience. I'm on the 4th year of my first business. Things really started to take off these last 6months. anyways I recommend you subscribe to Valuetainment here on YT. Patrick gives in depth advice more than Gary V, check them out I'm not affiliated with the channel just benefited alot from it. cheers man all the best on #5
The term 'overnight success' is just something that the media likes to use. There is no such thing. You are absolutely right about that Gary. All best, Alex
I have to give kudos to whoever thought of incorporating 1-sec clips of the 1,000 or so Wine Library TV episodes. I think without this, the video would've still been good, but that just makes it so much better. It really confirms what you were saying that it's not luck but the hard work you've put all of those years! Great Job!
Out of all of your videos, this is the most powerful one EVER. You hustled your ass for your dreams and you are an inspiration to us all. You can't expect miracles to happen. People work 40 years+ in a job and don't think twice, but work a few months, even a few years for yourself and don't get it and you want to quit. That's crap. Thank you, just thank you for telling it like it is.
Watching this video reminds me how much I miss Wine Library TV. I'm certainly not working as hard as I could so the dream may not come as quickly as I would like, but I'm certainly never quitting. Thanks Gary.
Powerful. Working on my dream now. Losing "friends". Looked at crazy cause I'm not up on pop culture I'm up on business and my market. It gets hard and sucks at times but doing what I love is worth it and all the w so fake people around me drop like flies!!
Tina Judkins you can always do both it’s good to stay connected with the world no for you friends, but for yourself learn how to turn off the machine, my wife loves when I do and just focus on her
This is your best video, Gary. This is the actual wake-up call. People, just watch the fucking sequence and imagine how much GRIT it takes to put out those videos day-in, day-out, and then think of AAAAAALL the work that had to get done BEFORE those videos could be made. Just... Just watch the sequence, watch it until it gets through your skull that SUCCESS takes REAL WORK. Actual work. Not an Instagram post with #hustle or #nodaysoff, but the work that is ACTUALLY behind those hashtags. This is fucking it. Look at it. Thank you, Gary.
62 year old here, finally getting the idea of commitment and devoting myself to my business. Love your energy Gary, gets me going in the morning doing things that I don't want to do. Doesn't really matter what you are talking about yet I learn a lot each time I listen to you.
Best one yet, Gary. Holy cow. "Go online and find a video of me before I'm 30 - it doesn't exist." That was a body blow for me. I am 30 and feel like I'm behind. Now I feel like I'm just getting started. Thanks for doing this one. (Also, P.S., "Conan O'Brien" is spelled wrong in the beginning, in case you guys are sticklers for that sort of thing.)
Tom Meitner I know this is two years late, but your 30 now and Gary is not. You have the time advantage. Right now it's all about what you're going to do going forward. Have a good life my brother.
THANK YOU!!!!! This is so good! I have been in real estate for 23 years and I cannot tell you how many times someone has made a comment about how lucky I am! Makes me want to scream like you just did! Been married for 25 years, raised 6 kids, worked more hours than I can count, worked before my kids got up and again after they went to bed because that is what was necessary. I am inspired to work even harder every time I watch your REAL world videos! Thank you for all you do to show people what success really looks like!
So many people should watch this. Luck seems to play a part until you look under the surface. What you normally find is a string of failures where they dusted themselves down and started again, massive sacrifices, turning down nights out with friends, working every spare hour there is and so on. Luck needs redefining in the dictionary, its not the way it seems. This is such a great video. SO much work completed when 'no one was watching'.
This is brilliant Gary! The term overnight success is an naive aggregated view of unseen blood, sweat, and tears. Keep up the Hustle! Your friend, Jesse from SLC
I tell my clients and students all the time that there is such a thing as "overnight success" meaning you have to work overnight every night until you are successful. When I started my biz, I worked my day job from 8AM to 5PM and then I would work my business from 5PM to 2AM so I was literally worked overnight for 2 straight years to get where I am today and I still work past midnight sometimes when I am trying to make a project successful. Thank you Gary for the reminder.
Agree 100% Gary. Individuals who dont live they want to live will not understand this. Sometimes its jealousy, not believing in themselves, self doubt or no focus. I have lost friends and "sprout" new ones because I am not a quitter and tend to ignore the doubters or negative people that have crossed my path in life....
This is by far the most motivational video I have seen all year -- and I watch a ton of motivational videos! I work 7 days a week, and people around me (even my husband) think I work too hard. Here I am trying to build a RUclips channel and a blog on top of two jobs, two volunteer positions and a busy social life-- but I have GOALS, and this is what it takes to make it happen. Thank you for the truth shared here! No Overnight Successes!
+Angela Cruz careful..I hope the volunteer; "giving back" is recharging and fulfillment. I went blind in 2005; the sign for me to re-assess. Work hard, but stay alive; "doesn't kill us makes us stronger". :)
My sister ask me ones, "when are you going to stop trying to build your own business?". She continued and said "you have been failing since you were 12 years old". My response was "I'll stop, Wendy put me in the ground".
i can't get this video off my mind to the point that I keep coming back to it. Everyday is a hustle and so tired of people thinking success happens randomly. It takes work to make it to the top and even more to stay there. Thank you for keeping me movin.
a m a z i n g. thanks gary and whoever edited this..!!! those 1 sec cuts must have taken AGES. brilliant brilliant video. Great to see a motivational video that's different from the usual (batman soundtrack + movie clips + Eric Thomas and Les brown). hugely inspired by this
You hit the nail on the head. People see the success and think it happens over night. Takes 10 years to become an expert. Thanks for managing people's expectations.
Gary, I can not thank you enough for this video. This is real talk, and it is inspiring. I've shared it with 3 fellow entrepreneurs, and its making a difference for all of us.
I LOVE THIS!!! People that don't work hard enough are always the first to talk about how "lucky" others are. "Whenever you see a successful person, you only see the public glories, never the private sacrifices to reach them."
This def. brought me back to reality....I have only 19,000 subs after 10 years of having my channel up but only becuz i was being LAZY....Thanks gary:]
incase no one has told you... Gary you truly are a blessing to the world! Thank you Gary for the inspiration the vibrating energy that you radiate to all watchers as we see your videos. I faithfully watch your videos every morning before i get to work and inspire myself to push myself until i get myself to where i want to be. I am a mother, a wife, a soccer coach, a full-time student, and i am trying to build my business through network marketing. i have been devoted to school and focused on work for the past almost 4 years, but will not stop i will not give up because the last thing i would let my kids see is mom failing at something she's tried so hard for. - i even play your videos to my daughter sometimes i want her to know what reality really is, she loves watching and feels more motivated listening to you than all others who try to teach and motivate her at school. - i don't think i could ever thank you enough, Thank you!!!!
People give up easily Gary, I had also started working when I was 15 and have been "hustling" ever since. My priority is to invest in myself. For example, while my former dorm roommates was watching TV, i was watching youtube tutorials, while my college friends were being indifferent to learning outside the scope of our major (telecommunications) I watched Stanford microeconomics class on youtube and read Samuelson's and Nordhause's - The Economics so my mind could have more than one view on the World. That resulted in me getting a better job (not only by salary but by the opportunity to grow) than they have now, if they even have one. Right now I got off my job and I'm learning German although I already speak three different languages. Why ? Because i have found that investing in a new iphone every year yields so little to me, and investing in myself is the best thing I can do with the time I had been given. There is no overnight success, there is only hard work and results.
i can't be the only one person in China who has been following Gary, but i am sure i am one of the few. Love Gary since the moment i saw your style in a video. i have been a 'lurker' for so long, and i am sorry for that Gary. Gary has been a role model for me, and this video has encouraged me again and proved something i have always believed: i work every day, i don't know if the holidays are coming or what the date today is, i don't have weekends and i love all of it. My friends ask me why i don't hang out or relax, i just don't how to explain, i think time is running out and if i don't hustle and grind until i make it, i don't deserve to 'Relax'. i feel like Gary is talking to me through the video, thank you so much and i really really appreciate what you have put out there, i am crying writing this comment, and this is the very first time i have ever left a comment on RUclips, you know how internet works in China. Anyway, i just want to thank every one behind every video, thank you for all of your effort. P.S in case anybody who's wondering, i have been self-employed and i teach mathematics and English in China.
This makes me remember the words of some hugely successful athlete guy (I don't remember exact name). Reporter: 'How would you explain your overnight success?' Athlete: 'Well, I've been working for 20 years and then it happened'
THANK YOU THANK YOU for all the value you offer Gary!! The way this video was edited BRINGS IT HOME. SO much love for you and the team Gary! Lights a fire for our team!
I may have said a time or two, "best episode yet!".... Forget that shit, Gary... This is what it's all about... busting your ass, doing the shit you don't want to be doing at that moment, because it's the only way to get where you want to go. This is THE episode!
What I notice is, almost every Popular RUclipsr today, have watched this video. And they really put in the WORK. And that helped them who they are TODAY. There is no overnight success people. We gotta put in the work. No excuses.
What do you think the 4 Hour Work Week did to "some" entrepreneurs? Work 4 hours per week and the rest of the time travel and live on the beach. Do you think it hurt some entrepreneurs?
+Secret Life of Vivian That is an interesting point. I doubt that the 4 hour work week alone has hurt entrepreneurs. The easy life has been pitched for an eternity. That book was probably one of the better pieces of content that made it seem logical.
+Secret Life of Vivian I've never read that book but does the dope actually encourage people to work a mere 4 hours a week? The AVERAGE person works 40 hours a week so I fail to see how someone putting out 10% of the AVERAGE person's workload could do anything other than achieve massive failure.
+Secret Life of Vivian and all of the others. You should definitely read the book which is actually quite great. It is not the "you don't have to work, and you'll be a millionaire kind of book". The guy that wrote it (Tim Ferriss; you should follow him by the way this guy is a genius) and a REALLY hard worker. The book is more about using the Pareto Rule and working smart, to outsource what can be done cheaper etc.. Really interesting, even though it does not describe the grind necessary to achieve such a level. T. Ferriss is a grinder and works his ass off every week and every day, just like Gary describes in this video.
Every time in my life I've worked hard, I got rewarded back, even after years. sometimes you think you lost a lot of time doing something that did not work.. but after a while you will know how much you got from it.. one of my client told me "I trust you because you are a hard worker, I've never called you and you did not pick the phone up"
I love people that are unique. You are unique. I began my journey to become a programmer in August 2013 and am finally feeling in 2016 the closer to my goal. I've been through a lot of my hard work, dedication, perseverance, failures, stupid mistakes through these past 3 years but my goal and determination has never wavered. I love how much emphasis you put on hard work because I know when I want something really bad I work hard for it and that is what it really takes hard work and no excuses.
Gary...I wish the 21, 25, even 30 year old me saw this, listened to what you have been saying. I lacked the focus. Today at 45, I know it's not too late (using my experience as you said in a previous video). Thank you for continuing to provide the kick in the butt that many of us (especially me) need to go out and succeed
the fact that you had to speed up the last few wine library tv clips to fit them all in, will always be a legend, you have influenced me more than anyone else in my life. I live for the 40 hour work weekends baby. To many hungry nights... too many...
Who else is watching this in august 2017? This is such an amazing video. I use it to confirm to myself that putting in the work masters and nobody gets it easy.
Watching this in Business Communications while my professor lectures about God knows what. Thank you thank you a million times for keeping that fire lit Gary
Thank you for reminding me - DAILY - that there is no ENOUGH. You can never do enough in a day. There's always the possibility to work harder and improve upon the previous day's achievement. Progress and hard work. Thank you for the motivation!!
Overnight success case study #1 Danielle Bregoli aka "Cash Me Outside Girl" Know For: Being disrespectful to her mother, and verbally threatening people. Occupation: Celebrity? Work Put In To Success Ratio: 0/100
Good point. Gray should comment on this. My guess would be a difference in definition of what successful means. She is famous and although financially profiting, I dont think she qualifies as entrepreneurially successful. If famous would count then you could run around naked and be successful. By the way: even the naked cowboy had to put in the work. Pun intended.
She became popular for being a brat, and IMMEDIATELY after realized that had attention and started WORKING on doing anything possible to take that attention and monetizing it (singing/making videos/posting pictures/talking to other people for more attention/etc.
She’s not successful, she got bought out dude! She’s just an industry plant. I could understand if she took the money and built something for herself that will last forever. But she didn’t and even if she did it was preplanned that show was scripted
BRAVO !!! This is the first YT video that "actually gets it... I bust my butt everyday for creating my channel... Fricking awesome and well done ....Thanks Gary
"I was 30 years old before any of you ever saw me." That really hit home for me.
Me too that's real.

Gotta respect that editing job. Must've took days to compile 1000 old clips together. Great video.

Wow, Leon Lush commenting on a GaryVee video?
Men overestimate what they can do in a year. And underestimate what they can do in lifetime. That quote has changed my life. My perspective has widened and now I see everything clearer now. Things I have taken for granted now have value that I wouldn’t trade for the world and the goals I have been scrambling to accomplish for years I’m now knocking out one by one. I thank that quote. And I thank you Gary. You defined the grind. Respect. Keep the momentum.
that's a nice quote.
Well said, Gary. As usual! Thomas Jefferson said that he believed in luck. In that the harder he worked, the more of it he found he had. The overnight success is born every morning.

I thought the "6 minutes for the rest of your life" was a good video. This, my friend, is in my opinion your BEST video ever! Thanks Gary!
This video still gives me the chills.
The episode 1 to 1,000 snippets adds onto it without even having to say anything.
Straight dope!...this is gold. This really hits home because I've been watching Gary since the first episode, prior to WLTV, like when the website Cork'd was owned by Dan Cederholm (2006/2007 ish).... can't make this up. All work. Love this. This video is awesome.
+Mike Locke I enjoy your you tube vids too Mike!
Alex Katsanos Thanks Alex!
enjoy your youtube channel too mike 😊
gerald henry ;) ..thanks man.
+Mike Locke happy new year 👍🎉🎉🎉
5th time is the charm? My first business was successful in that it allowed me to write off the purchase of a PC on my taxes so in effect is cost me nothing - but I sucked at writing software, and sucked more at sales. My second business was a success in that as a tooling and design engineer I completed a dozen projects and the customers got exactly what they wanted for the price I quoted - but I sucked at job costing and made no money. My third business (I'm learning) I did the research and put in the time and created products people wanted and they'd pay a premium for - I still sucked at sales, but got better at job costing and made a little money. My 4th business (I'm learning), started out great, $1M our first year, Was looking at $3M our second year - but 911 came and scared 90% of our customers away - the business bled money to try to stay in business - downsized and moved it into my kitchen - spent every dime to try to see the light at the end of the tunnel - it was there, but too far off, ran out of money, lost my home, downsized the vehicle count to 1. My next business will be different - it will not be self financed and I will leverage every technology out there so that I can be successful. Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Snapchat for business, LinkedIn, RUclips, Medium, email - I'll be everywhere. I am not giving up - I will master this game if it kills me :)
So how's it going with that?
Gary Vaynerchuk is partially right. It takes determination. But you have to have what the people want. You can't just make stuff and expect customers. I have a business plan, and a product, but timing has to be right and not on time, but just slightly early so I can get traction. Media is key in marketing, and I have to time that right too. Its too early to say if this will pan out, but so far, my market research says I need to keep going.
Talisman1957 Thanks for sharing your experience. I'm on the 4th year of my first business. Things really started to take off these last 6months. anyways I recommend you subscribe to Valuetainment here on YT. Patrick gives in depth advice more than Gary V, check them out I'm not affiliated with the channel just benefited alot from it. cheers man all the best on #5
Where can one follow you?
this comment was posted a year ago.. any update?
I love this shit. 36 years old spent last 10 building a business and absolutely love Gary. he is on point every single day.
I love this video! Hopefully it lights some fire under people to keep pushing.
The term 'overnight success' is just something that the media likes to use. There is no such thing. You are absolutely right about that Gary.
All best, Alex
I was watching the video counter thinking, "alright, maybe he made 200 or 300 of these..." But it kept going, and going, and going
I have to give kudos to whoever thought of incorporating 1-sec clips of the 1,000 or so Wine Library TV episodes. I think without this, the video would've still been good, but that just makes it so much better. It really confirms what you were saying that it's not luck but the hard work you've put all of those years! Great Job!
Gary, this is dead on. I have shared it with key members of my team and my youngest son who has started his own business at the age of 18. Kudos.
RUclips needs more films like that. I am impressed.
Still remains one of the best videos on RUclips
Out of all of your videos, this is the most powerful one EVER. You hustled your ass for your dreams and you are an inspiration to us all. You can't expect miracles to happen. People work 40 years+ in a job and don't think twice, but work a few months, even a few years for yourself and don't get it and you want to quit. That's crap. Thank you, just thank you for telling it like it is.
I live by something my father instilled in me ... "Luck occurs when preparation meets opportunity".
Watching this video reminds me how much I miss Wine Library TV. I'm certainly not working as hard as I could so the dream may not come as quickly as I would like, but I'm certainly never quitting. Thanks Gary.
Powerful. Working on my dream now. Losing "friends". Looked at crazy cause I'm not up on pop culture I'm up on business and my market. It gets hard and sucks at times but doing what I love is worth it and all the w so fake people around me drop like flies!!
Tina Judkins you can always do both it’s good to stay connected with the world no for you friends, but for yourself learn how to turn off the machine, my wife loves when I do and just focus on her
This is your best video, Gary. This is the actual wake-up call.
People, just watch the fucking sequence and imagine how much GRIT it takes to put out those videos day-in, day-out, and then think of AAAAAALL the work that had to get done BEFORE those videos could be made. Just... Just watch the sequence, watch it until it gets through your skull that SUCCESS takes REAL WORK. Actual work. Not an Instagram post with #hustle or #nodaysoff, but the work that is ACTUALLY behind those hashtags. This is fucking it. Look at it.
Thank you, Gary.
This is the #truth, put the work in always, no matter who you are, how old you are, do the work NOW NOW NOW.
All I can say is: Thank you Gary! Simply thank you for the rest of my life... What an inspiration you are my friend!!!
Took 8 months of patience to earn this verification badge.
Awesome!
Practical Psychology Wow never thought you watched Gary
Practical Psychology yay!
HI prac psych! I learn a lot from your videos!
💣💥
62 year old here, finally getting the idea of commitment and devoting myself to my business. Love your energy Gary, gets me going in the morning doing things that I don't want to do. Doesn't really matter what you are talking about yet I learn a lot each time I listen to you.
Best one yet, Gary. Holy cow. "Go online and find a video of me before I'm 30 - it doesn't exist." That was a body blow for me. I am 30 and feel like I'm behind. Now I feel like I'm just getting started. Thanks for doing this one. (Also, P.S., "Conan O'Brien" is spelled wrong in the beginning, in case you guys are sticklers for that sort of thing.)
Even tho your only getting started your still WAYYY ahead of those who aren't even trying
Jae Mcpherson Truth right there, man!
Tom Meitner I know this is two years late, but your 30 now and Gary is not. You have the time advantage. Right now it's all about what you're going to do going forward. Have a good life my brother.
Am 40 and this is on from now on, I will fight till I die, and finally rest when my bank account and bills are above my life style
Hard work is the secret to success.
THANK YOU!!!!! This is so good! I have been in real estate for 23 years and I cannot tell you how many times someone has made a comment about how lucky I am! Makes me want to scream like you just did! Been married for 25 years, raised 6 kids, worked more hours than I can count, worked before my kids got up and again after they went to bed because that is what was necessary. I am inspired to work even harder every time I watch your REAL world videos! Thank you for all you do to show people what success really looks like!
Great message +garyvaynerchuk! "Lucky" is a word people who are lazy use to describe people who are hustling.
We all need to be reminded of this every now and then. Thanks, Gary!
So many people should watch this. Luck seems to play a part until you look under the surface. What you normally find is a string of failures where they dusted themselves down and started again, massive sacrifices, turning down nights out with friends, working every spare hour there is and so on. Luck needs redefining in the dictionary, its not the way it seems. This is such a great video. SO much work completed when 'no one was watching'.
"KEEP THAT LUCK SHIT IN YOUR POCKET!" Vaynernation!!! Thanks Gary
This is brilliant Gary!
The term overnight success is an naive aggregated view of unseen blood, sweat, and tears.
Keep up the Hustle!
Your friend,
Jesse from SLC
I tell my clients and students all the time that there is such a thing as "overnight success" meaning you have to work overnight every night until you are successful.
When I started my biz, I worked my day job from 8AM to 5PM and then I would work my business from 5PM to 2AM so I was literally worked overnight for 2 straight years to get where I am today and I still work past midnight sometimes when I am trying to make a project successful.
Thank you Gary for the reminder.
Agree 100% Gary. Individuals who dont live they want to live will not understand this.
Sometimes its jealousy, not believing in themselves, self doubt or no focus.
I have lost friends and "sprout" new ones because I am not a quitter and tend to
ignore the doubters or negative people that have crossed my path in life....

This is by far the most motivational video I have seen all year -- and I watch a ton of motivational videos! I work 7 days a week, and people around me (even my husband) think I work too hard. Here I am trying to build a RUclips channel and a blog on top of two jobs, two volunteer positions and a busy social life-- but I have GOALS, and this is what it takes to make it happen. Thank you for the truth shared here! No Overnight Successes!
+Angela Cruz careful..I hope the volunteer; "giving back" is recharging and fulfillment. I went blind in 2005; the sign for me to re-assess. Work hard, but stay alive; "doesn't kill us makes us stronger".
:)
You're so right SunsetBrian !
Gary is on FIRE in this video!
Love going back and watching this every now and then. Shows me what real hustle looks like... to TEARS... A beautiful thing.
Gary! No words my friend. Absolutely love it!
So damn epic
Kudos to whoever edited this video. He put in WORK.
Your best motivational video. Amazing.
gotta come back to this one every once in awhile
I have posted this as a ''Happy 19th birthday'' to my best friend!
Thank you so much for this beyond awesome video!!
Love from Serbia
It's incredible how all the top comments on this video have more than 1 million subscribers. Students of Gary hit it big!
My sister ask me ones, "when are you going to stop trying to build your own business?". She continued and said "you have been failing since you were 12 years old". My response was "I'll stop, Wendy put me in the ground".
i can't get this video off my mind to the point that I keep coming back to it. Everyday is a hustle and so tired of people thinking success happens randomly. It takes work to make it to the top and even more to stay there. Thank you for keeping me movin.
that intro is pure fire! haha. man really love these shorts you guys put together. so much motivation!
+Jordan Cuellar Yep.
Easily my favourite of all of Gary's videos. Always watch this every single time I think about quitting because I'm not getting 'results' yet
a m a z i n g. thanks gary and whoever edited this..!!! those 1 sec cuts must have taken AGES. brilliant brilliant video. Great to see a motivational video that's different from the usual (batman soundtrack + movie clips + Eric Thomas and Les brown). hugely inspired by this
my favorite hobbie: Watching GaryV, getting fired up, feeling good, feeling like I accomplished something, and then not doing anything about it.
Yep, watching Gary is also a distraction in itself.
Can we all take a moment to appreciate how much work DRock/Staphon put into this... Epic video guys, thanks a lot.
You hit the nail on the head. People see the success and think it happens over night. Takes 10 years to become an expert.
Thanks for managing people's expectations.
Gary, I can not thank you enough for this video. This is real talk, and it is inspiring. I've shared it with 3 fellow entrepreneurs, and its making a difference for all of us.
I LOVE THIS!!! People that don't work hard enough are always the first to talk about how "lucky" others are. "Whenever you see a successful person, you only see the public glories, never the private sacrifices to reach them."
This def. brought me back to reality....I have only 19,000 subs after 10 years of having my channel up but only becuz i was being LAZY....Thanks gary:]
And now you have 29k just a year later, get it!
incase no one has told you... Gary you truly are a blessing to the world! Thank you Gary for the inspiration the vibrating energy that you radiate to all watchers as we see your videos. I faithfully watch your videos every morning before i get to work and inspire myself to push myself until i get myself to where i want to be. I am a mother, a wife, a soccer coach, a full-time student, and i am trying to build my business through network marketing. i have been devoted to school and focused on work for the past almost 4 years, but will not stop i will not give up because the last thing i would let my kids see is mom failing at something she's tried so hard for.
- i even play your videos to my daughter sometimes i want her to know what reality really is, she loves watching and feels more motivated listening to you than all others who try to teach and motivate her at school.
- i don't think i could ever thank you enough, Thank you!!!!
People give up easily Gary, I had also started working when I was 15 and have been "hustling" ever since. My priority is to invest in myself. For example, while my former dorm roommates was watching TV, i was watching youtube tutorials, while my college friends were being indifferent to learning outside the scope of our major (telecommunications) I watched Stanford microeconomics class on youtube and read Samuelson's and Nordhause's - The Economics so my mind could have more than one view on the World. That resulted in me getting a better job (not only by salary but by the opportunity to grow) than they have now, if they even have one. Right now I got off my job and I'm learning German although I already speak three different languages. Why ? Because i have found that investing in a new iphone every year yields so little to me, and investing in myself is the best thing I can do with the time I had been given. There is no overnight success, there is only hard work and results.
krutomjer wow man!
The only time success comes before work is in the dictionary. Well said Gary and very inspiring.
Damn, this just became my favorite video and message from you. I totally agree with you Gary and thanks so much for the reminder.
i can't be the only one person in China who has been following Gary, but i am sure i am one of the few. Love Gary since the moment i saw your style in a video. i have been a 'lurker' for so long, and i am sorry for that Gary. Gary has been a role model for me, and this video has encouraged me again and proved something i have always believed: i work every day, i don't know if the holidays are coming or what the date today is, i don't have weekends and i love all of it. My friends ask me why i don't hang out or relax, i just don't how to explain, i think time is running out and if i don't hustle and grind until i make it, i don't deserve to 'Relax'. i feel like Gary is talking to me through the video, thank you so much and i really really appreciate what you have put out there, i am crying writing this comment, and this is the very first time i have ever left a comment on RUclips, you know how internet works in China. Anyway, i just want to thank every one behind every video, thank you for all of your effort.
P.S in case anybody who's wondering, i have been self-employed and i teach mathematics and English in China.
This makes me remember the words of some hugely successful athlete guy (I don't remember exact name).
Reporter: 'How would you explain your overnight success?'
Athlete: 'Well, I've been working for 20 years and then it happened'
THANK YOU THANK YOU for all the value you offer Gary!! The way this video was edited BRINGS IT HOME. SO much love for you and the team Gary! Lights a fire for our team!
I may have said a time or two, "best episode yet!".... Forget that shit, Gary... This is what it's all about... busting your ass, doing the shit you don't want to be doing at that moment, because it's the only way to get where you want to go. This is THE episode!
What I notice is, almost every Popular RUclipsr today, have watched this video. And they really put in the WORK. And that helped them who they are TODAY. There is no overnight success people. We gotta put in the work. No excuses.
What do you think the 4 Hour Work Week did to "some" entrepreneurs? Work 4 hours per week and the rest of the time travel and live on the beach. Do you think it hurt some entrepreneurs?
+Secret Life of Vivian That is an interesting point. I doubt that the 4 hour work week alone has hurt entrepreneurs. The easy life has been pitched for an eternity. That book was probably one of the better pieces of content that made it seem logical.
+New Future Builder The guy that wrote that book works ALL week long, that's all I needed to hear from Gary and others to never read it.
+Secret Life of Vivian I've never read that book but does the dope actually encourage people to work a mere 4 hours a week? The AVERAGE person works 40 hours a week so I fail to see how someone putting out 10% of the AVERAGE person's workload could do anything other than achieve massive failure.
+Frederick0220 haven't read that book, but I've heard of the 10 000 hour rule and that seems a lot more realistic
+Secret Life of Vivian and all of the others.
You should definitely read the book which is actually quite great. It is not the "you don't have to work, and you'll be a millionaire kind of book". The guy that wrote it (Tim Ferriss; you should follow him by the way this guy is a genius) and a REALLY hard worker. The book is more about using the Pareto Rule and working smart, to outsource what can be done cheaper etc..
Really interesting, even though it does not describe the grind necessary to achieve such a level. T. Ferriss is a grinder and works his ass off every week and every day, just like Gary describes in this video.
Passionate People do what it takes!
So so good
Bring the truth, Gary! Preach it.
overnight success happens... after 10 years behind the scenes
Every time in my life I've worked hard, I got rewarded back, even after years. sometimes you think you lost a lot of time doing something that did not work.. but after a while you will know how much you got from it..
one of my client told me "I trust you because you are a hard worker, I've never called you and you did not pick the phone up"
Damn I could watch this video 1,000 times!
Love this movie so much. GRIND & HUSTLE!
14 people must've sent the "you're so lucky" emails to Gary..
I love people that are unique. You are unique. I began my journey to become a programmer in August 2013 and am finally feeling in 2016 the closer to my goal. I've been through a lot of my hard work, dedication, perseverance, failures, stupid mistakes through these past 3 years but my goal and determination has never wavered. I love how much emphasis you put on hard work because I know when I want something really bad I work hard for it and that is what it really takes hard work and no excuses.
Gary...I wish the 21, 25, even 30 year old me saw this, listened to what you have been saying. I lacked the focus. Today at 45, I know it's not too late (using my experience as you said in a previous video). Thank you for continuing to provide the kick in the butt that many of us (especially me) need to go out and succeed
Alex from Target
+FaZe Dirty I was about to say the same thing!
+FaZe Dirty Yeah it's not a great success if after 4 months everybody forgets about him
the fact that you had to speed up the last few wine library tv clips to fit them all in, will always be a legend, you have influenced me more than anyone else in my life. I live for the 40 hour work weekends baby. To many hungry nights... too many...
Sick as usual
Who else is watching this in august 2017? This is such an amazing video. I use it to confirm to myself that putting in the work masters and nobody gets it easy.
This was an epic video. The society keeps trying to sell this overnight success bullshit. People are busting their asses. Period.
Watching this in Business Communications while my professor lectures about God knows what. Thank you thank you a million times for keeping that fire lit Gary
And then they say it happened for me overnight, shit yeah I guess
I guess it took ten years for me to be an overnight success
Zach Porcher Big Sean 👀
Caua Rodrigues haha yessir. Love that verse.
@@ZachPorcher what you know about living check to check to living check to check to check?
Thank you for reminding me - DAILY - that there is no ENOUGH. You can never do enough in a day. There's always the possibility to work harder and improve upon the previous day's achievement. Progress and hard work. Thank you for the motivation!!
Gary deserves way more credit than what he already gets.

Know For: Being disrespectful to her mother, and verbally threatening people.
Occupation: Celebrity?
Work Put In To Success Ratio: 0/100
Good point. Gray should comment on this. My guess would be a difference in definition of what successful means. She is famous and although financially profiting, I dont think she qualifies as entrepreneurially successful. If famous would count then you could run around naked and be successful. By the way: even the naked cowboy had to put in the work. Pun intended.
She became popular for being a brat, and IMMEDIATELY after realized that had attention and started WORKING on doing anything possible to take that attention and monetizing it (singing/making videos/posting pictures/talking to other people for more attention/etc.
She’s not successful. She’s rich, her wealth disappears when she is no longer relevant.
She’s not successful, she got bought out dude! She’s just an industry plant. I could understand if she took the money and built something for herself that will last forever. But she didn’t and even if she did it was preplanned that show was scripted
The truth in what it takes. 1000 valuable videos. Boom! Love this video Gary!
:)
BRAVO !!! This is the first YT video that "actually gets it... I bust my butt everyday for creating my channel... Fricking awesome and well done ....Thanks Gary
