Jason Capitlal and Tik Tok Motivation: Post #22
So I have been watching this guy called Jason Capital for the last month, he basically Tik Tok Gary Vee. Jason Capital is very interesting, he motivates you. I don't believe mostly in what these motivational speaker talk about, I mean who really does. However, it is interesting to hear them speak and see how they got to where they are. Jason Capital was a student at the University of Michigan who from just going to one lecture and getting advice from Craig Ballantyne. Craig Ballantyne wrote him a plan on a napkin, the next month later Jason Capital made $20,000.
That story got me thinking, Jason Capital talks about reaching out to celebrities or people you inspire to be like. So why don't I do that? So I was thinking let me tell you the story about Errolson Hugh and who Errolson Hugh is. Errolson Hugh is the creator, co-founder, CEO, and creative director of ACRONYM. So how did I meet him? I was in Venice, nothing particular about the day. I was with my parents and there he was sitting with a group of friends. I grab my mom and said mom that’s the creator and founder of acronym I’m on looked at me and was like what’s the acronym and how do you know that’s him. I pulled out my phone and showed her pictures I said no that’s Errolson Hugh, I can see him he’s in all these photos. So I said to my mom I’m gonna go up to them and determine I’m gonna get a picture with them at least. My mom said fine go for it why not. So I chased after Matthew was leaving from the restaurant tagged on his but his coat coat tailAnd asked if that was Errolson Hugh? He responded with a resounding yes! So I ran up after him. After finally getting the courage, I asked him for a photo. He was quite kind about it, I bet shocked that someone would want a photo with him. We took a photo with his phone and he emailed me the photo. I wrote him email the next day to thank him for being so nice. We talked for a couple of weeks about the fashion industry and his upcoming projects with Nike. He asked me if I would like a pair of his shoes, I of course said yes and asked how much they were. He wrote me back saying they were free of course. He said he had a couple of promo samples left from their runways show, so it was no problem at all. From then on out we emailed almost every week, he sent me multiple shoes and we have become good friends. It has been a while since we have emailed each other. However that is what the power of reaching out can do, my next goal.
Starting today, I am going to reach out. Reach out not to the most famous people but people. Most people don’t know Errolson Hugh but if he is who you want to be, then go for it, it doesn’t hurt to reach out!
