Jay Shetty: Mindset Habits for Happiness, and Thinking Like a Monk

Jay Shetty is a School of Greatness luminary and one of my closest friends. He’s a leader and influential mindfulness coach, as well as an award-winning author and popular podcaster. Jay’s journey started when he was 21 years old and he became a monk. He started slowly — spending half his summer vacations in India — but ultimately, he spent three years living as a monk full-time. He meditated for anywhere from four to eight hours a day, studied wisdom, and served the local community in India. Jay learned a lot from those years, but eventually, he knew a different life was calling him.
