- On this episode, I have two iconic guests.

And I throw a right hook for a book that's not my own?

and this is episode 89 of The #AskGaryVee Show.

As you can tell, this is only the second,

Only the second time we've ever had a guest,

and we've doubled it up and so I'm really excited.

Jack, Suzy and I did a great talk at South by Southwest,

I've really gotten to spend some nice time with them

obviously have known about them, known them a little bit,

- Well, why don't you tell the VaynerNation

how you've been, what are you guys up to, who you are

for the one or two people that don't know.

Alright, well, we're here cause we love you so much, Gary,

but we're here because we've got our new book out,

it's called The Real Life MBA, we're going around talking

as background, Jack has got a long history

in business and I'm his writing partner and tour partner,

- And I've been building a school in the last two years,

We are granting MBAs and we're growing at 40 percent a year.

We're up to 900 students, 38 years old average age,

and it's so much fun to see them progress

65 percent of the graduates have gotten promotions

18 percent is the average raise of the student

and I mean you're semi-pro hockey career.

- That was a very weak, very weak program.

Fortunately, I thought I was a stud when I was

in high school, and I captained everything

and won all these awards and I went to college

and played against Canadians, and I quickly realized

- Alright India, let's get into the show.

You know, look, I think failure has to be quantified.

If you fail but you never can get up from it again,

For me, as an entrepreneur, and very entrepreneurial,

and always in my own stuff, all the failures

along the way, even going back to the baseball card show

when I was thirteen, that I paid 400 dollars for a table

and nobody showed up to that baseball card show.

Those microfailures were super, super important.

I think, you know, it depends on your stomach, right?

Like, if you really fail, like go out of business,

I think people take one of two ways, right?

They're like, just finished, and they're never able

to get off the mat, and they go in a different direction,

so to me, I think quantifying the failure's important to me.

- Well, I'll give you one, I blew up a factory

Sky high, my boss all of a sudden didn't know me,

which he pointed me to, and the guy asked me

a thousand questions, using the Socratic method.

So, in every one of these events, you gotta get yourself

back on the horse, and how well you get back on the horse

and how well you ride after getting knocked on your butt
