Fresh Start_11: Betting on your strengths thanks Gary Vaynerchuk

Over the past couple of weeks preparing for my sophomore year of college I stumbled upon a fascinating guy by the name of Gary Vaynerchuk. I won’t give you his entire Wikipedia page here, you can do that on your own, but I will give you my opinion on why I like him so much. So, I stumbled upon Vaynerchuk’s Youtube channel that is plain and simple Hustle at its core. That is the word that explains Gary Vaynerchuk the best. Not only did he start his own campany VaynerMedia, not only is he a motivational speaker, and not only does he want to buy the New York Jets, he wants to make more competition for himself so he can beat it.

Beating people is what Vaynerchuk thrives on and lives for; now it is not the physical “I’m gonna punch you in the mouth” type of beating but it’s close. Vaynerchuk is so betting so heavy on his strengths and what he is good at, that people who focus on his weakness lose tenfold. He has built his entire life around what he is good at, which has made me self-reflect and try to reverse engineer myself to be that type of person, not only for this blog, but for school and my personal life.

If I keep betting on what I am good at, it will make me a better writer, which quite honestly that is why I started this series of articles Fresh Start. I wanted to revert back to what made it fun and made me enjoy uploading articles each and every day. However, this series is way much more than that. It is check system that is a part of a bigger “To Do List” or just my daily schedule. Making the conscious effect to write each and every day makes it easier to write and more enjoyable to look at content and say to myself “I can make this better”. What betting on your strengths allows you to do is become more confident and explore the job market or community that you are in.

Stop, and make the rest of the article about you and your passion or the job you currently are in… Try and make the effect to look at what people above you are doing, or people at your same level at your competitor. Reserve engineer that apply it to yourself and make your work better to profit you. Something that this series of articles has also taught me that I hope to bring to my two podcasts is post daily content. You have to put in the hustle for it to pay off and thank you Gary for making that strong statement, one I will be living by.

The 2023 Offseason is Brian Cashman's Biggest Test Yet

Image
   Now that the World Series is over five days from now the offseason begins. With that in mind, this is the biggest offseason that Brian Cashman will have in his 25-year tenure as Yankee General Manager. For the first time since 2016 the Bronx Bombers watched the postseason from their couches, and they earned that right. Amazingly, this team finished over .500, although not that far above that mark. This iteration of the Bronx Bombers finish with the same record as that 2016 team—but the feeling with this squad feels different. Following the 2016 season, there was hope of the two power bats that would usher in the “Baby Bombers,” and in that offseason, the farm system was rated in the Top 10 in all of baseball. There was almost certainty that Brian Cashman would put a championship team around Aaron Judge, Gary Sanchez, Greg Bird, and Luis Severino that would be a title contender for years to come. There was hope. And that hope almost turned into reality. Almost. But, that was then

The Question going into the Trade Deadline for the New York Yankees

  There is a crossroads in the Bronx in between River and 161 st Street right now. As New York Yankee Manager Aaron Boone likes to put it “[the season] is right in front of them.” The second half of the season is for the taking. As we move into the dog days of summer the Bronx Bombers are nine games out of the division and now a game and a half out of the AL Wild Card race following a disappointing first series in Colorado. With that, the historic starting Tampa Bay Rays have cooled off, going 3-7 before the break while showing signs of being mortal. Baltimore, who has been keeping pace with Tampa, didn’t look like a Superpower when they split against the Yankees two series before the break. The AL East is still a Spartan Training Facility with every team above .500, the Orioles holding the first Wild Card spot, and the “struggling” Boston Red Sox tied the Yankees in the Wild Card race. And unlike Robin Williams in Mrs. Doubtfire, help is not on the way. Aaron Judge’s toe is still a m

The Answer for the Mets

  As Yogi Berra would say “it’s déjà vu all over again.” Buck Showalter is an all too familiar place. The 67-year-old manager has taken a time machine back to 2012. No, he is not managing in Baltimore anymore, however that’s what it feels like the end of Showalter’s Oriole tenure in Queens right now. The Mets simply can’t get out of their own way. With Pete Alonso likely headed to the Injured List, the Mets scored 10 runs last night in Atlanta. 10 runs on the heels of back-to-back gut-wrenching losses at the hands of the team that has foiled the Mets for the better part of almost three decades, the Atlanta Braves. 10 runs with their hired ace, Justin Verlander, who was looking to put together good starts consecutively for the first time all season. The Mets looked like they were about to exercise some demons in Atlanta last night, and then, the other shoe dropped. It wasn’t good enough. Again. Last night, I wrote that the Mets season was on the line with Verlander toeing the slab. Well
