Please welcome Gary Vaynerchuk.

Good evening inbound. How are you?

I'm super excited to be here. Can we hear it one more time for that?

That was remarkable. Good shit.

I'm really excited about tonight. It's a very special day in our amazing country.

It's a special day in the U.S. I was born in the Soviet Union.

Both my grand bothers spent substantial time in jail just because they were Jewish.

I know there's tension and belief about what should happen tonight.

I'm very thankful to be here tonight.

I want to talk about the journey of an entrepreneur.

How many people here are entrepreneurs? Raise your hands.

If we keep these lights on, that would be huge for me.

If you were sitting in this room tonight and you believe that whether Donald or Hillary wins impacts you, you're a mother-fucking-loser.

I want to explain this. We are so lucky to be here in this playground where the impact of the president only has so much impact on you because the reality is we are dramatically.

I mean dramatically more in control of our lives than the media pounds down our throats.

I hope if anything, whether you're 16 or 97 and you leave her tonight, you understand how unbelievable our opportunity is to play in this ecosystem.

What I want to talk about tonight is a couple of things. One, we are living through the greatest era of communication change that we've lived through since the printing press.

Regardless of what you do in here, it is going to impact you tremendously over the next decade because it's already impacted so much over the last decade.

For me, that is a very important thing. Before I go into the tactics that I want to bring to everybody, so you bring home something tangible, I want to start with something that I've been spending a lot of time with and haven't really expanded outside of the content that I've put on the internet.

So on stage tonight, I thought a really interesting thing to talk about would be self-awareness. If I could spend two to three minutes with all of you and make you understand that self-awareness is probably the single most important thing that you can spend time on for your outcome, for your future life, it would be so exciting to me if hundreds or thousands of people left here today and started really realizing who they actually were.

We are living in an era and we have forever where people have sold us on the optics of what we should be, where we should go. Let me tell you a story about myself. It's really funny, I got an email earlier today or yesterday from a friend of mine, Jay, that I want to college with who works with Carolyn, who I want to high school with.

Are you guys here? Can you guys stand up? Can I find you? Get up. There they are. Can we clap it up for my homies?
