In this audio episode of the Business Growth Architect Show, I have the pleasure of sitting down with Jay Adkins, a serial entrepreneur with a remarkable career in the real estate and insurance industries. Jay’s journey from a relentless, results-driven business operator to a balanced, family-oriented entrepreneur is a fast ride and packed with valuable insights for anyone looking to crush it in their career while finding personal fulfillment.

Jay kicks off our conversation by exploring the core of strategic planning and why it’s essential for achieving business success. He shares his powerful 90-day rule, a transformative strategy that emphasizes patience and persistence. Jay believes that to gauge the effectiveness of any plan, you must allow it at least 90 days to take root and show results. This approach is a game-changer if you easily feel overwhelmed by your to-do list or your own ambitions. By breaking down big goals into smaller, digestible tasks and evaluating progress quarterly, Jay's method turns daunting objectives into manageable milestones. This "gamifying" of goals not only keeps his team engaged and motivated but also ensures everyone stays accountable and on track.

We also explore Jay’s perspective on managing expectations. He argues that you should only have expectations of yourself and those you pay. This mindset fosters healthier, more balanced relationships, both personally and professionally. His candid discussion about how he and his wife navigated the initial challenges of his dedicated morning time didn’t seem to benefit the relationship at first but clear communication and setting boundaries have helped them maintain harmony and connection.

The conversation takes a deeply personal turn as Jay reflects on how starting a family transformed his life. Once consumed by long hours and constant travel, Jay’s priorities shifted dramatically with the birth of his children. He now treasures being present with his family and finds greater fulfillment in balancing his roles as a husband and father with his business responsibilities. Jay reveals how this new focus on family has paradoxically led to greater business success, which is in line with many of the spiritual principles we cover on this podcast.
