*REPLAY* Gary Vaynerchuck on The Power of Taking a Strategic Step Backwards

Next Level Agents: The Kevin & Fred Show - Interviews with the best and brightest minds in the real estate industry

In today’s episode of the Kevin and Fred show, Gary Vee returns for another great conversation. Today, we talk about the lessons we should be learning from what’s going on right now. It’s clear that our world is never going back to the way it was, and that is the new normal.

Many people are unhappy, and could use this time to make a change, but they don’t because they are too invested in where they are right now. This sunk cost fallacy isn’t only false, it’s also a recipe for unhappiness and regret.

Gary Vee’s message: choose happiness over money and status, and have the humility to take a strategic step backwards to create the life you want. A house, car or social status is not worth dying inside.

Gary Vaynerchuk is the chairman of VaynerX, a modern-day media and communications holding company and the active CEO of VaynerMedia, a full-service advertising agency servicing Fortune 100 clients across the company’s 4 locations.

In addition to VaynerMedia, VaynerX also includes Gallery Media Group, which houses women’s lifestyle brand PureWow and men's lifestyle brand ONE37pm.

Gary is a highly sought after public speaker, a 5-time New York Times bestselling author, as well as a prolific angel investor with early investments in companies such as Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Venmo, and Uber.
