They’re the haters and the doubters who said you’d never make it, the ones who stomped on your dreams. When you think about your enemies, you get emotional. You feel like you won’t let anything—or anyone—stop you.

If you don't have time to do it right, you don't have time to do it again

Publisher's Summary
In his sixth business book, best-selling author, entrepreneur, and investor Gary Vaynerchuk explores the 12 essential emotional skills that are integral to his life - and business - success and provides today’s (and tomorrow’s) leaders with critical tools to acquire and develop these traits.
For decades, leaders have relied on “hard” skills to make smart decisions, while dismissing the importance of emotional intelligence. Soft skills like self-awareness and curiosity aren’t quantifiable; they can’t be measured on a spreadsheet and aren’t taught in B-schools or emphasized in institutions. We’ve been taught that emotional intelligence is a “nice to have” in business, not a requirement. But soft skills can actually accelerate business success, Gary Vaynerchuk argues. For analytical minds, it’s challenging to understand how to get “better” at being self-aware, curious, or empathetic - or even why it’s important to try.
In this wise and practical book, Gary explores the 12 human ingredients that have led to his success and happiness and provides exercises to help you develop these traits yourself. He also shares what the “half” is - that emotional ingredient of leadership he’s weakest at and makes the most effort to improve. Working through the ideas and exercises in the book, he teaches you how to discover your own “halves” and offers insight on how to strengthen them.
Gary’s secret to success is using these 12 traits in varying mixtures, depending on the situation. But how do we know when to balance patience with ambition? Humility with conviction? Gary provides real-life examples involving common business scenarios to show you how to use them together for optimum results.
This iconoclastic book will help you refine your ingredients and improve your leadership capabilities. When implemented in the proper situation, these ingredients can help leaders land promotions, retain core employees, move faster than competitors, win the loyalty of customers, and build successful organizations that last.

Gary Vee Strikes Again with Steps to Limitless EQ
Gary mentions in his audiobook ( all of Gary's audio books are incredible as he goes ' Off Topic ' and adds a scenario or a memory that's most likely not to leap off a physical page.
He impresses with his emphasis on kind candor, empathy and above all - discipline to practice these skills he wants all of us to emulate.
No matter how you spin it, it's true - EQ is one of the most important elements of self mastery. All leaders would benefit from this 5 hours of treasure Gary has released at one of the most trivial times of the decade.

Gary V dropping those truth bombs!
I loved it! I'm glad I chose audible because there were so many off the script moments you can't get in the paperback. I especially loved those moments he talked about NFTs as I am working on my very own collection and doing something I loved to do as a kid, just doodle and draw, and I'm happy to say even before listening to this, me and my partner's road map goals involve charities and giving to those who need more love in their life! I was worried going this approach would hinder our growth or reach but this has removed all doubt! it was refreshing, honest and actually useful! Legendary, mate!

Great book overall and some great messages that I heard and took to heart that day which made me appreciate what I have and not dwell or be upset following an opportunity that I was excited about and looking forward to starting to find out that may not work as I was thinking it would and start to think of variations on what can work.
