Summary

On today's episode of the GaryVee Audio Experience, I'm sharing a conversation I had back in 2016 with critically acclaimed author and world-renowned speaker Eric Thomas. We discuss personal growth, the importance of execution over mere motivation, and the competitive mindset that drives us both. Eric opens up about his journey from struggle to success, and we both talk about what it means to build a speaking career. If you've ever felt like an underdog or wondered how to turn your dreams into reality, this episode is packed with insights and practical advice you won't want to miss. I hope you enjoy:)
