Now, I have to start off by saying I am so excited. I am super pumped and I couldn't be more enthusiastic right now. I'm feeling so energized because for the first time ever, I get to announce my podcast that my new book, my second book is ready for preorder. It's called The Eight Rules of Love. I cannot wait for you to read this book. I have spent the last two years pouring my heart out into the process of creating this book.

• 3:26Jay Shetty?

  Everything from learning from my clients, sitting down and researching cultures, looking at ancient wisdom, studying the modern science on dating, relationships, love, breakups, and then trying my best to synthesize, simplify, connect the dots so that you can find guidance on your path. So whether you're single, whether you're dating, whether you just broke up, whether you're in a long-term relationship, this book is for you. And I know thousands of you have already pre-ordered the book or you've pre-ordered the audiobook as well, which you can do right now. And I just want to say a massive thank you if you've already done that.

• 4:09Jay Shetty?

  If you haven't, you can go right now to eightrulesoflove.com. That's eightrulesoflove.com and you will find the link to your country and you can preorder the audio version, the hardback, whatever you want. And when you preorder today, you'll get access to my tour dates earlier than anyone. So if you preorder, you'll get that access. Also, I am so excited to announce that our guest this upcoming Monday is none other than Kendall Jenner. It's an incredible interview, a great conversation with a new friend.

• 4:46Jay Shetty?

  I really don't want you to miss this one. It's so powerful. And I think you're really gonna enjoy it. So let your friends know, mark the date, save it, subscribe to the podcast today so that you don't miss out this Monday, Kendall Jenner. So what I'm gonna do in today's episode is I'm going to answer the key questions you've been asking me about the book and the lessons inside those questions as well. So question number one that you've been asking me is why the number eight? Why did I choose eight rules of love? Why not seven? Why not nine? Why not fifty-two? Which by the way, was my original proposal, but my editor thought that was too many and I think you agree. Why eight rules? Now, there's lots of different reasons for this, lots of different levels and layers to

• 5:31Jay Shetty?

  this thought process. The first reason is that we all know that the number eight is the same symbol as infinity. And I think when we think about love, we think about it being unconditional. We think about it being endless. We truly believe that true love, pure love, real love is infinite. And so I thought the number eight would be a beautiful symbol for talking about, that's the level of love I'm talking about in this book. In this book, I don't just talk about love that we kind of throw around as a word. I don't just talk about love as kind of like just something that we speak about randomly. I'm talking about the purest, deepest love and how to access it within ourselves and within our relationships.

• 6:16Jay Shetty?

  Because when Harvard did their seventy-five year study on human happiness, they found that the quality of our relationships was the key indicator for human happiness. And so this book is really dedicated to how can we actually experience that depth of love and depth of relationship in our lives? Now, as I dug deeper, I also discovered that the number eight is a symbol of balance, right? It's one of the few numbers, or the only number that I can think of right now, that's actually symmetrical in shape. And when we think about a healthy relationship, I think we're starting to understand that healthy relationships are ones where people

• 7:00Jay Shetty?

  who are equally individually doing the healing are actually coming together to connect. And so when you see that balance in the number eight, you see that symmetry in the number eight, it really represents a healthy relationship. Even if you look at the number eight, you could see it as two whole circles coming together, right? Coming together to create something more beautiful, coming together to create something more powerful. And then I was reading on numerology.com and it talked about how in Chinese culture, the number eight is considered the luckiest number of all and is purposefully worked into wedding dates, birth dates, addresses and finances.

• 7:42Jay Shetty?

  Numerology.com goes on to say that in the karmic sense, in a spiritual sense, the number eight is all about giving back. It realizes that its successes are not its alone and will intentionally recognize and appreciate any help it has received. Another key pillar to a healthy, powerful relationship that the book will of course dive deeper into as well. So that's why I chose the number eight. This is the first time I've ever talked about this actually, and I don't explain this in the book either. So anyone who's listened to the podcast right now, you're getting the real behind the scenes thought process of how this all came together. Now, the second question I've been asked is why rules? Why do we need rules, Jay? Like, isn't life all about breaking rules?

• 8:27Jay Shetty?

  Isn't life about getting away from rules? Now, I consider myself a rule breaker. I consider myself someone who likes to rebel, who likes to bend the rules, break the rules. Like, that's definitely a part of my nature, my identity. I've always gone against the grain. I've always done things differently. So why am I, at this point in my life, writing a book about rules? Well, here's what I honestly learned. I've learned through life that you can be as innovative, rebellious, disruptive as you think, but there are certain universal rules, universal laws that you just can't break. It's kind of like trying to control the weather, right?

• 9:10Jay Shetty?

  You can pack an umbrella, you can wear a coat, you can wear the right shoes, but you can't control whether it rains, snows, sunshine, or a blizzard, right? You have no control over that. And that's how these laws are. They're working off their own accord. They exist whether you believe in them or not. These rules are there whether you've seen them written down or not. And you see them across different types of relationships, different cultures, different backgrounds. So when I dive into these eight rules, we start to recognize that if they're broken, we keep making the same mistakes again and again and again.

• 9:52Jay Shetty?

  When you look at relationships that succeed and you look at relationships that fail, it's because you see the ones that are successful are following the rules. Now, I also want to define what I see as a successful relationship. I don't see successful relationships as relationships that last. I see successful relationships as relationships that learn. So a successful relationship is not a relationship because it lasted 10, 20, 30, 50 years. Like, that's an arbitrary mark. That's a random number. It could have been the most painful, most unfulfilling relationship for 40 years. Why are we just celebrating a number?

• 10:34Jay Shetty?

  When in reality, a successful relationship is not a relationship that lasts long. A successful relationship is a relationship that learns long. If two people are learning from each other, if two people are learning about each other, if two people are learning about themselves, that's a phenomenal relationship. And I think we get so stuck on either lust, like, or love, that we avoid the key thing that a relationship's trying to get us to do, which is learn. Your partner's meant to be annoying. Your partner's meant to get on your nerves. Your partner is going to do things that irritate you, that agitate you in the process to help you grow and learn.

• 11:15Jay Shetty?

  There is no human on planet Earth that is not going to agitate you in some way because you're different people, you come from different backgrounds. So these rules that you'll learn in this book. Are not rules that stop you from doing certain things or encourage you to only do certain things. They're not rules like in a rulebook. These are rules that are existing beyond our belief system. And when we practice them, we start to see the power of them. And when you practice them, you start to be able to use these rules to improve the love in your life. Now, the third question I get asked is all about the subtitle, because I had lots

• 11:57Jay Shetty?

  of different ideas for the subtitle. One of them was how to manifest the relationship you want. And I started to go backwards on that, because I realized that too many people have a prescribed version of who they want in their life. They have a long list, and they're told the more you manifest it, the more you think about it, the more you'll attract that person. And what I've found more often than not is that relationships are about discovering someone, as opposed to deciding on someone beforehand. So a lot of people feel that if you decide on what you want, that's what you'll attract. And what I've discovered from meeting people is that actually, when you choose to discover a person, you can then decide

• 12:42Jay Shetty?

  whether they're the right person. If you try and decide whether someone's the right person or not, based on a list, you could say no to someone who could actually be a great partner for you. And so actually, learning to discover people, learning to actually be curious, learning to actually learn about people, which is the one thing we don't want to do, actually allows us to gain so much more intimacy and connection with that individual. So the subtitle I chose was how to find it, keep it, and let it go. Because what I found is that love is so elusive to us. I mean, when you Google the words, will I ever?

• 13:20Jay Shetty?

  The predicted number one search result is will I ever find love? And now I wrote find in the subtitle. But in the book, I don't talk about finding love. I talk about creating love. I talk about building love. I think we're so stuck in the pursuit of looking, searching, seeking, finding, that we don't build, create, work and put in effort. Right? The whole culture that we've been led to believe is find your passion, find your person. Right? Find your whatever it may be. And really, it's not about finding, wishing, wanting, waiting.

• 14:03Jay Shetty?

  It's about building, creating, doing. And so in the book, I switch your perspective from finding to creating. And this is a mindset shift. This doesn't just apply to love, it applies to life. This is a mindset shift that I'm trying to create through this book, that I want you to stop thinking about life in the pursuit of finding something, in the pursuit of hoping that it already exists and I'm going to find it. Actually, it already exists because you're going to create it. And so that switch, if you literally applied that to the rest of your week, if you said, I'm not going to find motivation. I'm not going to look for when I feel good. I'm going to create feeling good.

• 14:46Jay Shetty?

  I'm going to build feeling better about my life. I'm not going to look for it. I'm not going to hope for it. I'm not going to wish for it. That's a mindset shift in commitment to how you live. Now, I talk about keeping it. I think keeping it is really important because in our lives, we sometimes find it easy to find that spark. Or maybe we don't, but maybe you feel some connection. But then it wears away. You know, maybe it wears away in a couple of months, maybe a couple of years, maybe after 10 years, maybe for some people after a couple of decades. Keeping something is a lot harder than creating it.

• 15:25Jay Shetty?

  Right, creating is easier than keeping. If you look at the amount of businesses that are started versus the amount of businesses that last, there's more started than those that last. If you look at sports stars, athletes, who make a name for themselves, and then second season, third season, no one knows who they are anymore. If you look at musicians, you have their one-hit wonder. We have that statement, one-hit wonder. Because you have that one-hit wonder and then people don't know who you are anymore. So, starting something is hard, but keeping it going is harder. Maintenance is way harder. Right, you can build a beautiful building, but trying to keep it beautiful is so much harder.

• 16:06Jay Shetty?

  The amount of refurbishment it takes, the amount of revamping it takes, the redecorating it takes. So, I place a lot of emphasis on this book, not just on finding and creating love, but on keeping it, on keeping it beautiful, on keeping it wonderful, on keeping it exciting. I think the mindset shift here is that we have this belief that everything should just stay the same. "I loved how things were when we met. Our first date was incredible, let's recreate it. Our wedding day was the best, I wish we were back there." Life becomes about reliving old memories, rather than building new memories. And I think that's one of our biggest, biggest mistakes in life,

• 16:50Jay Shetty?

  is that we're so stuck in the nostalgia of the past, we're so glued to how things used to be, when they weren't even that great back then, that we elude ourselves to only trying to recreate memories, not create new ones. And that's why I want to talk about how to keep things fresh, how to keep things alive, and how to make things feel like they're organically growing. And that's the funny thing, right? Things are only exciting when they're growing. Like, you know, when you were a kid, probably like, maybe your parents had a tape measure to see how tall you were growing, or maybe you were one of those families where your parents allowed you to like scribble on the wall above your head,

• 17:35Jay Shetty?

  and then they watched you grow, and it's so exciting when you're getting a little bit taller, or you're growing in classes. And what I've realized is that when most of us leave college, or if you didn't go to college and you quit before... From that point on, there's no measurement anymore. Therefore, we don't feel any growth anymore. That's why we don't feel we're moving forward. Up until eighteen or twenty-one, or sixteen or eighteen or twenty-one, whenever you dropped out of school, sixteen, eighteen or twenty-one, up until that point, there was growth in your life. There was exams, there were tests, there were classes, there was a new year starting. After twenty-one, you practically lived the same life, year after year after year.

• 18:15Jay Shetty?

  And so if you don't set growth, if you don't set new targets, if you don't set new organic milestones, that's why life becomes boring. And that's the same thing that happens after marriage. It's the same thing that happens after you move in with someone. It's like you lose the next milestone. When you lose the next external milestone, you have to set new internal milestones.

  Cards issued by JP Morgan Chase Bank, N A Member FDIC. Subject to credit approval, terms apply. This is a huge mindset shift. I can't express this enough that keeping something is not about keeping it the same. Keeping something is about being open to change. Remember this, write it down. Keeping something is not about keeping it the same. Keeping something is about being open to change.

• 21:11Jay Shetty?

  Open to change, creating change, choosing change. And in this book, I'll share with you how you can practically do that. The book is filled with practical tools, insights, work areas, brainstorms, activities you can do on your own or with a partner if you have one. There's so many aspects to it. The third part of the subtitle that people have asked me about is how to let it go. I was like, Jay, how do you let love go? Like, I don't want to let love go. Or I do want to let love go and I don't know how to. And I really thought it was important in this book to address this idea that there's a beautiful Arabic proverb that says,

• 21:53Jay Shetty?

  "What is meant for you will never miss you and what misses you was never meant for you." And to me, living with that faith, living with that confidence, creates a whole new mindset again in our lives. So if you notice, the subtitle focuses on three key mindset shifts in life that are required for us to have healthy relationships. Because sometimes someone comes into our life, teaches us a lesson and moves on. Sometimes someone comes into our life, gives us a blessing and moves on. Sometimes someone comes into our life and messes it up and moves on, right? And so whether it's a mess, a lesson, or a blessing,

• 22:37Jay Shetty?

  it's not something we can control. But recognizing the difference between someone give us a blessing, someone giving us a lesson, and someone giving us a mess, allows us to recognize that each one was designed to help us learn a particular part of that. So that's the insight on the subtitles, the title, the number of rules. And now I want to answer some questions which I think you're gonna really enjoy that I was asked recently about the book from all of you on Instagram as well. So one of the biggest questions was, why have I written a book about love right now? And I'd say there are a million reasons. Over the last few years, all the podcasts I've done on love and relationships, all of you have listened to them the most.

• 23:21Jay Shetty?

  The videos that I made on love and relationships for years, all of you have watched them the most. You've shown me through how you connect and resonate with the work I'm putting out, that this is a key issue in your life. When I talk to people, whether they are upcoming successful entrepreneurs, whether they're established, whether you're just starting out, whether you're working at a company, the number one thing I hear from people is just, I'm dissatisfied with my relationship. I'm so unhappy that I haven't found someone. Like, this seems to be something that weighs on our generation differently. It hits differently. It's a, it's a gap in our lives. It's an inadequate feeling. It's an incomplete feeling that we experience when our relationships are not fulfilled.

• 24:05Jay Shetty?

  And so I really believe that it was such an important topic to write about. And I honestly have learned so much more about love through writing this book, that it has been an honor and a blessing in my life to have this opportunity. And American novelist Jamie McGuire said that love is the most overused word in the English dictionary. I believe it's the most under-defined. We get most of our messages about love from media, from movies, from music, from our parents, and lots of them are either inaccurate or unhealthy, or at best they're limited. And Tim Lomas, a psychologist at Harvard, analyzed fifty different languages and discovered

• 24:49Jay Shetty?

  fourteen types of love. I mean, most of us maybe think there are two or three kinds of love, like romantic love, family love, and maybe the way you love your dog, or really good chocolate, like me, but in all of it, we're missing a lot of what love is really about. So I wrote this book because I wanted to share the eight rules that I've learned through different cultures, ancient wisdom and modern science, that will help at any stage of your pursuit of love. So I want you to have your own definition of love when you read this book. I want you to actually understand what love means to you because it means something very different to everyone else.

• 25:29Jay Shetty?

  And we've been using everyone else's poorly-formed definitions of love to define our own. Another question I got recently was, "If I just got married, Jay, what's your best advice for me?" So if I was to offer one piece of advice, I'd say, "Expect your relationship to change, and hope for it to change, and even work to make sure it changes." We tend to have this idea that our wedding day is a finish line, we found the one, and the reality is that it's a starting line, not a finish line. And the thing is, with a regular run, like in a marathon, you'd know the course. But with marriage and any relationship, you have no idea what you'll encounter.

• 26:13Jay Shetty?

  So there's a lot of learning and growth that needs to take place so you can navigate it together and get better at it as you go. And so instead of getting married and having a hope or expectation that you and your partner and your relationship will always stay the same, expect to be challenged, expect to fail, and try and embrace those experiences. If you always orient yourself towards growth, even your stumbles will become ways to move forward. So I find that, again, another life mindset shift, we kind of get to this place where we're like, "Okay, from today, everything's gonna be good." Like from today, I'm gonna eat healthy every day. From today, I'm gonna meditate the best every day. From today, everything's gonna be amazing.

• 26:56Jay Shetty?

  And the reality is, sure, that's a nice cute mindset to have. The reality is, I will fail. Things will go wrong. So if I know that, then I'll be able to pivot and readjust again. But if I believe everything's gonna be perfect, I'm actually setting myself up for a greater downfall. Okay, this question was really powerful. Jay, what if I just like being alone? I don't wanna be in love. I don't believe in it. So I'd say that you actually have an interesting view of love. So when I was a monk, and when I became a monk, I thought I'd be one for the rest of my life. And I definitely do not believe that you have to have a romantic partner to experience love.

• 27:39Jay Shetty?

  I experienced so much love living as a monk within and with my fellow monks, that it wasn't something that I now have an issue about. Like, I think for a long time, we're made to believe that if you're not with someone, then you can't experience love. So in fact, one of the greatest forms of love, and the most foundational, is love for ourself. And what I've realized is, love for ourself doesn't come through confidence or self-esteem or self-love. It comes from self-respect. Right? You'll learn to love yourself when you respect yourself. And you'll learn to respect yourself when you follow up with what you commit to. If you do challenging things, if you try something new, if you follow up with a commitment,

• 28:23Jay Shetty?

  you will start to respect yourself. And when you start to respect yourself, you will start to love yourself. Love starts with respect. Psychologist Karen Arntz says, "Being alone well is an art form." Sadly, as we grow up, we're taught only other people can provide the love we're looking for. And that's one of the biggest reasons so many of us feel lonely or jaded about love. When people don't live up to our expectations, we feel let down. Instead, we can learn the art of being alone, and that includes learning how to provide that love to ourselves. So someone said to me, Jay, what am I going to learn from this book? There are some really practical tools inside this book with questionnaires,

• 29:06Jay Shetty?

  with quizzes that are going to help you understand unique parts of yourself and your partner. So this includes your fight style, your learning style, how you like to receive love, your values, your purpose. All of that is packed into this book to help you gain insights on that. Now, another question I got asked is, Jay, what do you think about apps? Like, what do you think about the online world? Now, when it comes to dating apps, I agree that they can be problematic, but I don't think it's the app that's problematic. It's how we use it and how we think about it that causes the challenge. So one study showed that more than half of online daters lied in their profiles.

• 29:48Jay Shetty?

  Also, having so many options at our fingertips can lead to a phenomenon researchers called relation shopping, where we can be more critical of potential partners or put less into relationships because of this perception that we can just swipe to find someone else. So several studies show that we make worse decisions when we have more choice. And that's what we have to start understanding, that it's less about how many can I get through? And it's more about how deeply can I learn about someone? I think when we look at it as like swipe left, swipe right, when we look at it just moving on, when we look at it like, oh, there's more options, we actually stop ourselves from creating the investment that's required to see a benefit.

• 30:31Jay Shetty?

  So that said, pretty much all technology, I think it's more about the user than the technology. And yes, we have to work harder to use technology to our favor. But there are absolutely ways to use dating apps that are way more healthy, and I talk about them in the book. And it requires a clear intention, openness, and a high tolerance for rejection. And I think that last part is what is actually stopping us. Our ego is so scared of being rejected that we're scared of putting ourselves out there. And I think for me, I grew up with a lot of rejection when I was younger. So I got used to it. And that really helped me recognize how it was a normal part of life.

• 31:16Jay Shetty?

  And I think we think of rejection as something's going wrong. In reality, everyone you look up to, everyone you admire, even people who you see in successful relationships, have experienced rejection in their own way. And so I really truly believe that being open to hearing no allows us to find that one yes that actually makes a difference. And I want to end on one last question, which was, you know, what's something that might surprise you about the book? Or where the book goes, or the direction that it turns in? And I'd say it's that we so often talk about love like it's so hard to find. But in reality, it's truly everywhere. Romance is only one type of love.

  The reality is that opportunities to experience it are endless. And one of the easiest ways to experience love is to share it. Hold a door for someone, offer a smile to a stranger, bring a sick person soup, walk dogs at the shelter. Love is always right here, waiting for you. You're not waiting for it. Thank you, everyone, for listening to today. I am so grateful that you spent this time with me. I really hope that you're gonna go and preorder my second book, my new book, Eight Rules of Love. All you have to do is go to eightrulesoflove.com. I know thousands of you have already ordered it. Thank you so much for all that love. But I am so excited for you to read this book. I promise you, it's gonna be a game changer.
