As a manager, the more you have to do, the fuller your bucket gets. Make sure to empty your bucket from time to time to keep it from overflowing. Over the last couple of months (actually more like a year and a half), I've been really heads down building VaynerMedia, my...
So I’ve been spending a lot of time thinking about why I’m not angel investing as much lately, and I think there’s a conversation there that I’d like to talk about and bring into our space. And the title of that is: I can’t code, and you can’t sell crap. It’s an analogy...
People often ask me how I stay on top of tech. It’s literally one of the top three or four questions I get at Q&As when I give talks. It’s always like “well, how do you stay on top of it? There’s so much going on!” And I often answer “it comes...

So, knowing that I have a lot of young fans, this may not resonate, but for all of you "older peeps" like me that are lucky enough to have two children… Something interesting happened the other day. We had some great friends over, Erin and François. They have three children, and Erin...
So this weekend is Wrestlemania, and it got me thinking about a wrestler by the name of Bret "The Hitman" Hart. You see, Bret Hart was a wrestler in the WWF (now WWE) for a very long time, originally with the tag team partner of Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart, they were known...
I’m concerned, a little bit, with the culture of celebrating the fund-raise. My dad taught me that when you borrow money, It’s the worst day of your life. Just now, we didn’t clap for Red Rover, because they didn’t raise 6 trillion dollars, but I was sitting here like “Good stuff!” (I just...
I have The Yes Virus. What is The Yes Virus? The Yes Virus – and I think a ton of you have this, at least the good peeps – is when you want to say yes to everything, when you feel like you can do everything, and most of all you don’t...
