Today's episode is a classic moment from GaryVee TV. Many of us are actually taking the risk of chasing our dreams instead of living in the fear of judgment to go after them. For those people, especially the ones who have been at it for a while the question becomes is this not working, when should I consider doing something else? I had a really great conversation with a girl who started a clothing brand but has seen only small results of her efforts and wanted my take on if she should continue to pursue this passion, or if its time to something else.
Enjoy! Let me know what you thought.
