The Secret to Feeling Confident Walking Into Any Room with Gary Vee

Opinions are flying heavier and more black and white than ever because of social media. And we've gotten into this massive cocoon of everybody's listening to every voice but their own. And then when some people tell me, well, Gary, my voice says I suck. I'm like, that's not your voice. You've taken on the voice of someone else. Sure.

Lady Gaga said something yesterday on social, because she crushed the Met Gala, and she said something like, I once had a boyfriend who told me I would never be famous, that I would never win a Grammy, did you see this? And she said, and I replied to him by saying, one day after we're broken up, You're not gonna be able to go to the deli without hearing my name or seeing my face.

And I just so understand that. I was told by the system, by my report card, by the friends, parents, by my teachers, by everybody that I would be a failure. D's and F's. You're gonna be a failure in life. The only voice I listened to was my own. Instilled by your mom. Correct. Through self-esteem. I'll never forget it. Opening a door for an elderly woman when I was eight years old at a McDonald's.

I can see it now. Oak Tree Road, Bradley's, Edison, New Jersey, 1983. maybe 84, before November, opening a door for a woman, sunny day, and my mom went off as if I won a Nobel Peace Prize. She instilled positive reinforcement around a very good behavior. My mom also punished me on every report card. She punished me consistently through high school.

No Nintendo, no TV, no phone, no friends, no going out, all the way through my senior year of high school. Even though I was proving to her that I was capable, sports cards, helping my dad's business, she held me accountable. I was still a student, and I was failing at school, and thus you should pay the price. That accountability mattered. A lot of moms and dads are overacting the other way.

Back to like the 6th to 10th grade of like I like girls but I'm scared to ask them out because I don't want rejection. I also didn't conform to peer pressure ever. And that was because I just couldn't hear anybody else's voice. I couldn't hear anybody else's voice but my own.
