On Today's TEM Extra:
The list of traits that Gary Vaynerchuk values more than skills
The most important things to look for in a business partner
A reminder from Eunbi Kim on the importance of contracts and planning for worst case scenarios
Putting my money where my mouth is (in regards to if no one ever thinks you charge too much money then you aren't charging enough - someone did and they let me know it!)
Things I admire over skill <
— Gary Vaynerchuk (@garyvee) October 1, 2019
Compassion
Sympathy
Empathy
Kindness
Gratitude
Humility
Patience
Self awareness
The ability to be the “bigger person”
Sincerity
This is a great list!
Skills can be acquired. (Especially if we bring a growth mindset to the table!)
But each thing on this list comes only from years of cultivation. That is why they are more valuable than skills.
This list is especially relevant when considering a new partner in a business venture. Always look for a skill set that is complimentary to yours. But even more importantly, always look for the human qualities that are most important to you.
Because acquiring them is not as easy as watching a few how-to YouTube videos.
If Facebook took the approach of “well it’s already been done” ...

This is about execution! Have an idea? Someone’s doing it? Out execute them
To quote Gary Vaynerchuk, ideas are shit. This is a little bit of an oversimplification but the point remains a vital one.
Once on an episode of The GaryVee Audio Experience, I heard Gary tell a room full of 30 people that they as a group within a day could come up with next 100 great ideas that will change the world.
The hard part is not coming up with a great idea. The hard part is not only executing on one of them but executing better (or earlier or in some way different) than everyone else in your tiny corner of the world.
The idea muscle is one worth flexing. But the execution muscles are the ones that most people only engage every so often.
And that’s why most of us aren’t that good at getting things over the finish line.

Straight fire from Gary Vaynerchuk about paying attention to haters online.
“Go do something because the only thing holding you back is being worried about what other people might say.”
Warning: Lots of strong language in this one!
