Always remember there would be many errors and disparencies if you try to install packages without virtual environment in python.

I would like you to create a virtual environment as specified in the link and then try it out.

1) sudo -E pip install --upgrade pip

2) sudo -E pip install --upgrade google-api-python-client

Than environmental variables using flag -E is better
