| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Tea with Gary Vee. This is where I answer your questions. Aaron, get on the mics. |
| 0:37.5 | This is a question from James. I started working for my family's roofing business six years ago, and we've had massive growth. Although almost all of our growth has been because of social media videos, trying a new idea is still like pulling teeth with my dad who owns the business. I have a lot of resentment because I'm 37 now and I feel like I'm in too deep to start some immune. Should I cut and move on or just stay the path until one day he finally sees the value? Cut and move on. I live this life. I left at 34. Now my dad let me do everything.

And in hindsight, it was like, I'm so glad I did it. If he's resenting, he should move on. He's not in too deep. You're never in too deep. You're never in too deep on a job. You're never in too deep on a business partnership. You're never in too deep on a business idea. you're never in too deep on a relationship. I love when people are like, am I too deep? |
