Have you ever heard the name Gary Vaynerchuk? This 40 year old, who was born in Babruysk, Belarus, and immigrated to the U.S. at the age of 2, is one of today’s most successful entrepreneurs – building his family’s $3 million dollar business into a $60 million dollar business in just a few years, starting his own successful social agency, creating an investment portfolio investing in big names like Facebook and Twitter, and managing to write four New York Times bestsellers along the way.
His biggest tip for success? Practice, practice, practice. “Work is always the answer,” Vaynerchuck says. “A billion ideas are going to be thought through by people today that could be a $100 million businesses in six years – but only four are going to execute on them.”
He says practice should be applied not only to work but to service, patience, self-awareness and observation. You should practice things like always being observant of people around you, being you and playing to your strengths, and always thinking long-term whether that be with money or business relationships.
Success can be found in many different ways. Practice is something that can help you get there, no matter what path you’re taking. Gary Vaynerchuk is a perfect example of this. Take his advice today and practice, practice, practice.
