It's Tuesday, which means it's time to pass along another one of my favorite TED videos.

This week's video (warning, it contains some adult language) features Gary Vaynerchuck, who is a best-selling author as well as an expert in wine and social media. What a combo, huh?

Vaynerchuck's talk is about the two "P's:" Patience and Passion. Passion is the big one. Vaynerchuck urges us to think about what we really want to do for a living, and then be willing to put in the hard work and make the sacrifices necessary to see that vision become a reality.

On passion: "Look yourself in the mirror and ask yourself, 'What do I want to do every day for the rest of my life?' Do that. I promise you can monetize that (expletive). If you love Alf, do an Alf blog. If you collect Smurfs, Smurf it up. Whatever you need to do, do it."

On patience: "I used to work in a liquor store from 7 in the morning until 10 at night for seven straight years, and the only days I took off were to watch the New York Jets. And you know what that did: It made me throw up on myself, so that wasn't a vacation. But that gave me a platform. That was a stepping stone. The reason I was able to start Wine Library Tv was because I built up this business, and it gave me the equity—the cash flow—to do it."

Give the video a look. It's about 15 minutes long, but it flies by because Vaynerchuck is a funny, energetic, charismatic guy.
