Book Recommendation: #AskGaryVee


  In this previous post, I recommend one great book-<<Crushing It!>> by Gary Vee.

  Now, I am going to share another excellent book with same author-<<#AskGaryVee>>.😎😎😎

  Have you heard a YouTube famous show-"The #AskGaryVee Show" ? The content of the book

is exactly extracted from different episodes of the show, which consists of various topics like

"Gratitude, Leadership, Management, Starting up and Education.(actually contains 22 different 

topics!OMG!)So,it definitely caters to anyone since you don't need to finish the whole book, just find

your favorite chapters and read them. You can get many tremendous benefits from it if you don't

want to watch the show.


  The following are my favourite Q&As from 5 different Topics and I hope you can enjoy it:


Education
Q:What advice would you give a high school senior in America who is trying to decide whether or not to go to college and which one?

A:......"In life, you should only be doing two things ever: discovering your passion and then realizing it.  (p.48)

  (It seems that it is quite old-school. However, most people just ignore it since they think it is bullshit. Of course bullshit! You have such a perception as You DON'T TAKE ACTION!. Now, DO IT!)



Leadership
Q:What are the most important lessons your father taught you about building a business?

A: ......You word is bond......He taught me that when you make a commitment, you stick to it......(p.213)

  (It's absolutely true for anybody though you are not a leader because it is the core of a relationship. It makes you credible and anybody will like it.)



Q: Do you ever complain?

A: ......Life isn't fair or perfect. Complaining fixes nothing. Only taking action does......(p.216)

  (it's not a remarkable idea. But, it reminds me of the importance of taking action. We often moan and groan about our life, money, opportunity, friendship and so on. Yet, none of us start doing things that can improve our quality of life, which is quite weird, isn't it? It is very hard to develop such a habit, But let's try to do it because We are born to live a blissful life with our family, not a tedious and dull life.)




Management
Q: When hiring for a team, is it better to bring in specialists of someone who can wear multiple hats?

A: ......, If you work hard at trying to be good at many things, you'll get good at many things. And 

taking that attitude will force you to say yes to new challenges more often......(p.243)


  (Without a doubt, you can't be an expert if you want to be good at many things. However,  most significantly,it can help us to strengthen our confidence and become more willing to face new adversities. It is more beneficial to us.)





Self-awareness
Q: What are some easy ways to become more self-aware?

A:......it's asking people straight up to tell you your strengths and weaknesses......


(Don't be afraid that it may ruin the relationship , If  you think that you are in the true relationship, 
just feel free to ask their opinions and digest them without annoyance.)




Public speaking
Q: As a speaker, you rarely use filler words and you hardly ever lose your train of thought onstage, or in front of the camera. Can you provide insight into how you've nurtured your public speaking chops?

A:......Talk about what you know......


(It is the most powerful tips. Don't be a smarty-pants if you want people to listen to you and respect you.)
