Today, I am talking to Kevin Hart. Kevin is an actor, comedian, author, investor, and CEO. Over the years he has become Hollywood’s box office powerhouse, opening ten films at number one at the box office with $4.23 billion revenue at the global box office. In 2020 Hart starred in “Die Hart,” the first production of its kind, created through his digital network, Laugh Out Loud, and Executive Produced through his production company, Hartbeat Productions. Kevin’s memoir, I Can’t Make This Up, debuted at number one on The New York Times Best Sellers List and remained on the Top 10 Nonfiction Hardcover Bestsellers List for ten weeks straight. Kevin’s digital network, the Laugh Out Loud Network, serves as a platform for emerging comedians and is home to two premium series which both feature Kevin – “What the Fit?” and “Cold as Balls.”

We get to see Kevin’s serious side as he talks about self love and team effort. He places emphasis on the importance of focusing our energy on finding a solution rather than wasting time on the problem, how team effort is the foundation to all forms of success, why we should always consider both sides of the story, the beauty of cheering for others success and celebrating it with them, and how self love and self appreciation must start with you and not come from someone else.

Truly, there is no shortcut to success. It is earned through hard work, clear purpose, surrounding yourself with the right people, and a multitude of self love.

What We Discuss:
00:00:00 Intro
00:03:19 Looking in the mirror and being okay with yourself
00:07:38 Having parents that opens opportunities for you
00:13:06 Don’t focus on the problem, focus on the solution
00:20:45 It’s hard to see the good if you’re only seeing the bad
00:25:20 The simplest things came from an idea
00:35:12 Team effort is the foundation of success
00:43:19 Celebrate each other’s success
00:58:24 Talk to yourself
01:06:47 Looking at things with both lenses
01:10:16 You gotta learn it
01:15:12 Would you wish pain and suffering for anyone?
01:20:50 Critical thinking
01:25:27 There is no handbook to fame

  • I put this comment here so that everytime someone likes it, I'll be reminded of this song because it heals something in me 👍🏽🙋🏾‍♀💯✌🏾May God bless you all the days of your life. 🎉
  • This CD has three separate relaxation/meditation sessions on it youtube.com/post/Ugkxzpa8CIfZcihW4Z0F_ja0QF3W9KIat… guided by a very pleasant and direct male voice. Unlike so many other products of its type, this CD does not have bad synthesizer music, does not feature a phony or affected style of narration, and does not make any bogus claims to be subliminal or to re-train the brain or any of that balderdash. What you get is 1. a guided meditation for getting into a pleasantly relaxed state of body awareness while taking a stroll (superb for those easing back into a fitness routine slowly after an illness or injury) 2. A nice long breath-awareness relaxation session that if followed diligently can put you into very deep states of full-body relaxation and mental calmness, and 3. a buddhist-inspired meditation session designed to help you develop and maintain feelings of loving kindness toward not just yourself and your friends, but toward people you don't even like. The CD makes no claims to be designed for advanced meditators or for buddhists or hindus/yoga practitioners looking for very deep and esoteric stuff. It is geared more toward the average person who just wants to develop the habit of relaxation and stress relief through natural, healthy means. him, if you happen to be reading this, keep up the good work fella, and I love your accent. I would also like to note that I have never fallen asleep while listening to this product. I would like to kindly suggest to the reviewer who said this CD makes him fall asleep, that he might want to get checked to see if he has a sleep disorder, or if he is simply not setting aside ample time for restful sleep at night. A healthy person getting adequate rest at night should be able to go into deep states of mental relaxation without dozing off, if not all the time, then most of the time.

    Most times when we see someone on the screen its hard to see the real side of them but this episode has taught me so much about successful people and life. Thank you Mr Shetty and Mr Hart
  • @parisncholle
    "Do the work and make sure I'm ready" - This really hit home for me when Kevin Hart said that. Making sure you're prepared for a opportunity is a great tip for tackling success.
  • @kaushikdevil1
    I used to really like Kevin, now I just really love him. I would have never thought a comedian and actor would be such an authentic, giving person. I’m sure he’s helping so many people! He has more respect from me than anyone I’ve ever seen.

    Success doesn't happen overnight. It's a marathon, not a sprint. You have to pace yourself, put in the work, and be consistent day in and day out if you want to achieve your goals.
  • Amazing. I have never heard Kevin Hart speaking about motivational words before. Definitely, This guy is inspiring the actual and next generation. Let me put his mindset on my daily life
  • @kristyli9965
    'Self-confidence is a belief'. If you believe you can, then you can✨
  • Jay you are killing it with these new conversations. I love the vulnerability and confidence Kevin reveals.
  • @stukyle
    I can relate a lot to Kevin's first point about our early teenage years. Wanting to look like you're doing something without actually doing anything. That has fueled me to what I have become today and what I strive to be. Thank You Jay & Kevin for this episode. 🙏🏻
  • loved hearing him talk about this. Didn't know he had a near death experience and that he wrote about it! excited to listen to it and loved your Budda quote about the flower and "liking it you pluck it but if you love it you water it daily" that is a new one for me that hit me hard!
  • This podcast is a hidden gem. It also makes me hope I'll find an episode that helps me break out of my shell and be less reclusive. Being disconnected in todays world is a major disadvantage. Big props to Jay Shetty.
  • Just when I think your interviews can’t get any better, you top yourself Jay Shetty! I’ve enjoyed Kevin Hart for years, now I have such a deep respect for him and his journey. If I ever have the chance to sit and talk with one of both of you, I would describe how meaningful this interview was for me. From being present in life and as a parent, to forgiveness, teamwork (a major aha moment for me), and thinking critically (which I talk to my son about all the time). You really brought it today! I can’t wait to purchase the audible. Thank you so much! Blessings!
  • This legit felt like I had a wake up talk by Kevin hart himself. Him getting me back to reality. Thank you so much for this podcast , I really needed it!!!
  • @JoeWindhall
    Creating multiple sources of income is highly rewarding. It helps in planning adequately for the future. Notwithstanding; it's quite a herculean task for one to go into trading or investment without a sound knowledge or guidance from a highly skilled expert. what's your take?
  • @fatboyannie
    I love that Kevin is not just funny, he is brilliant. The way he works his ego and knows that letting others be their best will make him shine and make him money! love it!
  • @LowkysWorld
    this was honestly life changing to watch. Ive been working on all these ideas and a lot of the things he talked about. but to hear him talk about it through his experience really has brought everything full circle for me. Thank you for having this conversation <3
