As a content creator, Jay knows all about what it takes to prioritise time in order to make sure that we're getting the best out of life. In this conversation, he talks about time management and the way he manages his social media facing persona and his content creation empire. He also discusses the hacks you can use in order to 10x your reach, how to reframe your health goals and conquer any addictive traits, and how time can be used to train our expectations in life.

An absolutely amazing interview 🔥

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There's nothing wrong with being full of yourself, because when you're full, you naturally find more to give to others. The best way to serve, is to make sure you're first serving yourself.
Investing in yourself and asking others to hold you accountable is very powerful, because not only do you get people expecting you to do something, you also get people who want to see you NOT doing something.
There's nothing wrong with indulging yourself from time to time. What's important is that you follow the rules you set for yourself. Be realistic about your goals and stick to them.
With the perspective of time, we can often see that things we feared missing out on, may have been bad for us. Every time this happens we set ourselves up to win. It's about taking challenges and choosing a different path.

BEST MOMENTS

'The opposite of being full of yourself, is being empty'

'It's about having more good habits than bad habits'

'FOMO is the Fear Of Missing Out, and JOMO is the Joy Of Missing Out'

'Each time you do that for yourself, you set yourself up to win'
