Jay explains that success isn't about being the first to act, it's about consistently taking meaningful action and staying committed to your purpose. The conversation explores the rise of artificial intelligence and its impact on creative work.

When you know your worth and combine it with consistent action, you position yourself to make a lasting impact.
