Gary Vaynerchuk Speaks On Really Pursuing Happiness As An Entrepreneur (Video)
Word hard. Gary BELIEVES in that. But even more, Gary believes in SELF-AWARENESS. Know what makes you happy. Don’t work so hard that you sacrifice happiness… Plus some folks (like GaryVee) are the happiest when working like he does now.
So many have aspirations to build a successful business, but complain that they’re “tired after work†or “don’t want to work weekends.â€
But I do think you should work to the point of burning out or sacrificing your happiness?
Of course not.

Gary Vaynerchuk Is Revealing His ‘Secret Wine Project’ And ‘Secrets’ To Creating Great Content And Winning (Video)
I have long admired how lights-camera-action Gary is. And that his content creation looks soooo much a part of his life; like he is not trying. Bet both pockets that he is trying HARD (and so is D-Rock, his media dude).
Some behind the scenes of my secret wine project – gvwineproject.com. I’m very excited that I finally get to show you all the things I have been working on under wraps for a while now…

Talking ‘Trash’ And Flipping It Into Treasure With Gary Vaynerchuk (Video)
Hustle b!tch. That’s what it’s about and what I have to imagine Gary would tell you himself. But instead, he will show you how to grind and get money to grow your grind up. Too many of us try to get our ‘game up’… Nah son, grow your GRIND up first #JustSaying
In this week’s episode, I snagged some incredible flips for less than $100 that are all now listed on eBay for well over $1000+

Advice From A Self-Made Millionaire: Treat Money Like a Jealous Lover (And Nine More Tips) [Video]
Grant Cordone, millionaire. Wonder if he owns a mansion and a yacht. Ha! Maybe that Bugs Bunny joke was too ‘old’ to get a giggle if you are under 30; but what Cordone promises you can get… is rich! To do so, Cordone says you need to get greedy, get away from get-rich-quick schemes, never give up, and be a good guy (ethical, willing to help others to succeed). That’s the gist. Here are the tips, via an Entrepreneur magazine write-up (and video above):
- Follow the money. You cannot save your way to millionaire status. Focus on increasing your income in increments and repeating that.
- Don’t show off — show up! Be known for your work ethic, not the trinkets that you buy.
- Save to invest, don’t save to save. The only reason to save money is to invest it. Put your saved money into secured, sacred (untouchable) accounts. Never use these accounts for anything, not even an emergency.
- Avoid debt that doesn’t pay you. Make it a rule that you never use debt that won’t make you money. Poor people use debt to buy things that make rich people richer.
- Treat money like a jealous lover. Ignore it and it will ignore you, or worse, it will leave you for someone who makes it a priority.
- Money doesn’t sleep. Money doesn’t know about clocks, schedules or holidays, and you shouldn’t either. Never try to be the smartest or luckiest person — just make sure you outwork everyone.
- Poor makes no sense. Bill Gates has said, “If you’re born poor, it’s not your mistake. But if you die poor, it is your mistake.”
- Get a millionaire mentor. Most of us were brought up middle class or poor and then hold ourselves to the limits and ideas of that group. Get your own personal millionaire mentor and study them.
- Get your money to do the heavy lifting. Investing is the Holy Grail in becoming a millionaire and you should make more money off your investments than your work. Investing is the only reason to do the other steps.
- Shoot for $10 million, not $1 million. Go for more than a million. There is no shortage of money on this planet, only a shortage of people thinking big enough.
Lifestyle Blogger ‘Genese Jamilah’ Speaks on Why “I Don’t Do Clubs”
Here at JAYFORCE.COM we have no problem telling you about other great sites to check out. One of my favorites is IdontDoClubs.com or IDDC for short. A friend of mine sent me a link to one of their stories about black owned Restaurants here in Atlanta, GA. I was impressed with the list and took the time to surf the site. Great events and alternatives to the nightclub life. So I reached out to the editor in chief and founder of the site Genese Jamilah. She took some time from her day to speak with me about why she does not do clubs. She also shares details about an upcoming event she has planned here in Atlanta. So enjoy this interview and stay tuned because we will be doing an upcoming post dedicated entirely to her Must Love Beards event happening here in Atlanta. We will also be giving away two free tickets for one of our lady readers of the site!

Nelson Mandela’s Old Johannesburg Hideout Gives South African Artists & Entrepreneurs A New Home (Video)
Nice! Shout to The Daily Beast for bringing this Johannesburg gem to light. A center for entrepreneurship and culture that was once at the heart of the anti-apartheid movement. In South Africa, if you want to realize a dream, this is the place – apparently to work it or witness the work come to fruition. Great look at the people and art of Johannesburg in this clip.
