“I think you shouldn't just not try because you have to pay your dues.” [8:25]

“There's no tips and tricks. There's just a lot of work. It's a lot of work. It's a lot of focused work. And that's the biggest message I can drive home is that of course there's practices and things you can do, but you need to stop making excuses. You need to put your head down. And you need to make a plan. And then you need to execute the plan.” [25:38]
“If you're not truly in tune with your biggest teammate, which is yourself, there's no way you can succeed. You need to know yourself really well.” [31:38]

“If you mix creativity with hustling hard, any job position, anything you want to become is possible. Show people what your value is. And then they'll pay you for your value.” [47:23]

“If you are depressed you are living in the past.
If you are anxious you are living in the future.
If you are at peace you are living in the present.”
― Lao Tzu
Siim Land damn that's true bro
Love this
Absolutely, Slim! I just posted the same thought on FB yesterday!
I never heard that before but it's so true. Thank you for posting xx
It's so funny how once this "motivational" stuff gets in your head, it actually becomes useful in everyday life. This quote Slim used was in my head from an Evan Carmichael meme I saw once before. I was at work and found my neck getting tight, blood pressure rising & just not feeling good for some reason I couldn't figure out. Out of the blue, this same quote entered my head. I looked around at my surroundings, took deep breaths, thought about how far I came in a short period of time... and I reverted back to my "normal state" (at peace). Haha... this self-improvement stuff is great!
This guy never loses his flow and for me the best part of his interview is the way he introduces people.
That's just wow.
Lilly Singh is one of the most beautiful people inside and out that I have ever encountered. My head feels like it is literally going to explode from the power and insight that I am gaining from these videos. I am 61 years old and I finally am taking action on my goals like I have never before.
Ken Hoover amazing!!!!kudos to you for finally taking this step! Best of luck to you😊
Ken Hoover your absolutely right 😍 i'm so happy for you and i'm happy that lilly does not just inspire young people she inspires all ages 😍
go ahead sir
YESSSSSS! SLAY 'EM!
best of luck Ken I have no doubt you'll hit your goals
"show people what your value is and then they'll pay you for your value." 👌👌👌👌
Very true ... :)
Your worth value counts in your creativity.
*"The universe may like the law of attraction, but it likes a good hustle EVEN more"* 💃
Awesome interview Tom. Here's what I took from it:
* See your sucky moments as stepping stones.
* Not all your friends need to be able to give you good advice, some just need to be able to be there for you.
* You have to prove your dreams can be real. Set a timeline for what you can do.
* Pay your dues early on, high energy & enthusiasm is a cue for being on the right path.
* People who are great are obsessed, and yes, that can be unhealthy at times, but you gotta keep that in check.
* Be scientific & mechanical, process your emotions when you need to.
* Sleep is a small cost to pay for big results - sometimes you might not get enough.
* Stop making excuses, get your head down & WORK.
Thanks!!
VERY VERY good summery
Keshav Bhatt awesome summarization! Thanks
I m ur subscriber ......
Thank you for sharing it!
When Lilly said “How can you become better if you don’t know what the worst version of yourself is?” I felt that
She truly does live by the words as you will see from her vlogs- "you can do everything right and the universe still doesn't owe you anything. Be persistent, not entitled"
Hurts but true

Mr.Tom Bilyeu, i must let you know you are a wonderful person,i love the way you introduce people, i have been following you for along time and i have learnt alot , you helped me learn how to treat every body like Gold.Thanks alot ,am so grateful for people like you,with people like you the world is a beautiful place, you are a blessing to our generation.Thanks alot.
That's so kind! I'm honored!
I agree with you !
My daughter introduced me to Lilly Singh; watching her was very therapeutic and fun for us during a challenging phase. Smart girl
As an Indian I can really feel what she went through. Its tough here in India, with your parents and the society pushing you to places you don't belong. I really needed this. Thanks Tom . And thank you lily
The Magician Hub I guess that's everywhere... getting pushed to places where you don't belong.... :/
Nana yeah, I guess
And it’s definitely an Asian thing. My parents still influence my life and I’m 44. I think the main thing is to fight for your identity when you are young. Get out and do things your parents think would not be good for you. For example, my parents still believe in the same path Lilly went through. Go to school, get a degree or two, work at a stable 9 or 8 to 5 corporate job, have a family. Despite some of my family (cousins) having successful businesses, the traditional path is still seen as the best chance to be successful.
It's uniquely terrifying when ur indian to go against ur parents. And it's not cuz indians are bad parents; it's India's history of soooooooo many invasions and colonizing causing us to be in a perpetual state of fear and lack of stability. Or at least our parents are like that but many of us children are not like that and are branching out to become successful in other areas of life. And Indian children want to make our parents happy very badly whereas in some other cultures there is the tradition of rebelling against the parents to spite them.
taoist40 That's also strong in Latin cultures
Lilly is the most genuine, humble, honest person I have came across in the public eye! I stumbled upon her while she was doing and interview for Sophia Amoruso's podcast and I have been hooked ever since. Watching her vlogs from day, one she has not changed one bit (except for the better) and she repeatedly preaches and does what she says she believes! Her idle is Dwayne but my idle is LILLY! She will forever be one of the 5 ppl I surround myself with daily. And her vlogs make it even easier for me to do that. I "hustle harder every day to have productivity live where I live" Thanx tom and Lilly. Both of you are great. Thanx for being the gems we need in this world to help spread positivity in so many ways! 💁🙏🙌🎊😍
She has also the perfect facial ratios. So her cardinal virtues are amplified through her beauty. Just a visual artist remark.
;)
wrong
she pretty Sup Soul...
plus it was tongue and cheek...
Lovely! Yes she is awesome.. but one thing .. it's idol not idle. Two have different meaning:p
Study Account lol thanx! I kno The phone corrected it. I hate that.
Dope interview. No gimmicks...just strategy and a crazy amount of focused effort.
Lily is the perfect example of how influencers can make an impact and change the world for the better while simultaneously enjoying life. I'm gonna be the 1000th person to say GOALS! Girl love to everyone here in the Impact Theory community
OMG I have to read her book now!!! This youtube channel, Impact Theory did save me from depression but this is the first time I relate so much with the guest :)
I've been sitting on pins and needles for this interview to come out and I can honestly say that it was well worth the wait. Lilly Singh's viewers are very familiar with her comedic side, however this side of her, which Tom masterfully teases out, is such a powerful testament to her strength, determination and focus as a business woman in full command of her faculties and her empire. A spell-binding showcase of a multi-talented powerhouse with a story that will inspire anyone with a dream to dig deep and hustle harder. I enjoyed every minute watching this. Bravo.
That's awesome! So glad you liked it!
Just wanted to say that you're an impeccable writer! @GemmaPeralta
Akshita Tewari Thanks so much!
Finally!!! i could'nt wait for this eposide to be realeased
16:30
“You need good friends and people to help pull you out of those funks from [willingly] stepping out of your comfort zone”
That statement REALLY resonated with me. Another great interview Tom! 🙌🏻
I completely agree. I believe failure is just a stepping stone for success.
Personally, I've been a loyal subscriber of Lilly's for 4 years now and have known since that first encounter something was special about her. So, it's easy to appreciate an interview like this that actually gives real insight and a genuine outlook on her level of success. Quality interview you had here with her, Tom.
How do people NOT LIKE this? It's empowering, motivating and awesome... ALL. THE. TIME!!!
omg its superwoman! Great to see Lilly on this show
Siraj Raval You too will be on the show one day siraj, Talking about school of AI and stuff.
Siraj Raval, great to see you here! 👍
Tom, you are an incredible interviewer. Very to the point, no gossip bullshit, kind, very well informed, genuinely interested, no interrupting the guest, real questions. Well done! 🤝
Also, I love how eloquent and articulate Lilly is.
She is goals and this came at the perfect time! :)
Keila Keto yaass she is life! Lol
Keila Keto anyone can work hard she’s over glamafied.
Yes I love women that are career minded, business women the self starters are the ones that have a special place in my heart.
Lilly Singh on Impact Theory! Something I didn't realize I wanted until I got it!
Inspiring story making the best out of a tough situation. We all can learn a thing or two from this.
Michael Jay - Value Investing No , We can learn A LOT of this 😍
You got my vote for 'social media' and 'work ethic' classes in schools !
Hey Tom !
Yes. More classes on how the world works. You end up with a degree on crunching numbers but you have no clue on how the world works (and nobody tells you anything about it. So you don't know that you don't know. That's just Catastrophic)
Oh my God Tom makes people feel so good, Thanks Dear
Great interview! This is actually great inspiration for the rest of us RUclips creators who don't feel like we've gotten much attention yet (view count) based on our content and hard work.
I actually ended up subscribing because Tom is seriously the worlds best interviewer!! Best show hands down!
Been watching this show everyday for almost a month now and it changes 50% already of how the way I think about reaching my GREATEST GOAL in life. You are such a great help Sir Tom Bilyeu. Pease keep inspiring people. More power to your show!!!
I'm glad ur putting relatable people on ur show now
YESSIR ! Tom is worth at least one million subscribes! Because he creates awareness of people.
i had to go back and see this, at 8:53 she makes a call to action to subscribe. Congrats on 500K Impact Theory!
now 1.7k
Thank you, Tom, for having Lilly on IT. I've followed her for a few years and she's helped me deal with depression. This was timely.
Her Psychology degree has served her well. She has a better understanding of why people tick the way they do, why she ticks the way she does and then she spins them out in funny videos. Hurrah!
I'm from the UK & have never ever heard of this woman. Never seen her anywhere on RUclips. However she seems cool and is very beautiful :)
Seanis123 loll RUclips superwoman - she's awesome x
She's pretty famous and has been in London before ...
You will really like her if you followed her
Seanis123 she is pretty famous instead fact
Hello Tom & stafff, Another FANTASTIC/UPLIFTING episode. This is one of the best interviews I have seen to date. Really resonate with Lilly Singh's response about people who take the time to post hateful/mean comments. I did not however think about what she said that there should be a class on social media in school; that makes a lot of sense. She is brilliant, funny & very engaging. Great reminders when she said: Take ownership. Be proactive (ex., if you know your phone is going to die while you are out, put a charger in the car). There are solutions to most challenges. Really appreciate her 'girl love' campaign. Wow, definitely appreciate the impact she wants to have on the world: To encourage people to believe that whatever they want to be, even if it doesn't exist, it's possible. If you're creative & mix it with hustling, anything is possible. Show people what your value is & then they'll pay you for your value. Thank you for having her on your show Tom.
One day I am gonna sit right in front of you #Tom Bilyeu , telling about my life experiences and answering your question "what impact I wanna have on this world" and my answer will be that I wanna make people more aware and sensible towards their own and others' feelings and I am already doing that.
Epic stuff Tom and Lilly!! ❤️❤️❤️ from 🇦🇺 thanks for the encouragement and open disclosure.
"If your not truly in tune with your biggest teammate which is yourself you'll never be successful"
If your not satisfied with who you really are how can you expect others to be. The wisdom that is dropped on your channel is amazing. thank you for being you Tom. That goes for everyone on you interview too, thank you!! It gives so many people hope to take action and get results. Truly exceptional.
I've been waiting for her episode ever since she vlogged about it!
Hope it was worth waiting for!
I am so happy that she is here. Love you Lilly Singh... 💎
so intelligent, so well spoken. so proud of her
I love how Tom asked deep questions and not just the obvious repetitive ones like "Why did you start making videos"
Exactly, he is phenomenal at bonding n building energy with the interviewee n the audience
This girl is from my hometown! So proud!
I've been waiting for this since I know about this from her videovlogs. I love her so much I don't even understand. She is such an inspiring figure and I feel so inspired everyday when watching one of her videos or vlogs, she is doing amazing. I hope to be able one day to follow her footsteps and try to do what I really want and impact the world in a positive way. Lilly, you are a true inspiration of hard work and not giving up!
Scarisa which episode of her vlog??
Sophearith Saing "Recreating my dog's Instagram picture"
Scarisa Thanks!
FINALLY Lilly's Interview is up!! Been waiting for this for so long since I saw it in her vlog channel!! Love both of you!!
She is such an inspiration....always a pleasure to watch her...
I love how she said 'It's OK to feel crappy, I'm on the same roller coaster as everyone else'. That was so authentic and real.
I'm so happy Superwoman came onto your platform; I've always wanted to see an in-depth analysis of Lily's values because I've followed her since 2010 and seen her become so successful. This was so needed, thank you!
I am legit crying. LILLY IS THE MOTIVATION OF MY LIFE
I love Lilly without and iota of doubt but i must add Tom sir you are the best interviewer i have ever seen.Lots of love,positive energy and best wishes for your channel.🤗🤗
Tom, this was an excellent interview! You are such a respectful and terrific host/interviewer and your questions were key to propelling a thought-provoking and meaningful interview! Thank you for being passionate about self-improvement and PLEASE keep doing what you're doing, because we need it!
I am a teenager.... And I literally can't put what an impact that interview had in my life, in to words!
Like, I literally have NO words to describe, and the only thing that I can really say about that HUGE PoSiTiVe impact is that: "like yesterday, I really was HATING myself to death just because of what people think about me and what they believe about me!!" Now I believe that, THIS IS MY LIFE, and it's NoT your business what I do with it. In conclusion, I really appreciate that woman for helping every single kid to becoming a better being, and changing the world to a better place. :) I love her SO MUCH, haha one more thing is that my mother started to cry while watching this with me and it was the cutest thing EVER! I had to download it!! ❤️👸🤗👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you, Lilly and Tom!
OMG it’s January 1st 2020 and this is the video that proposed up, talk about divine timing. First I wished I watched this before because it is soooo good. Lilly is absolutely beautiful inside and out and will be picking up her book ASAP. #GirlLove
lily is an angel she lives in a world that everyone wants to live in
"Taking ownership and taking control to change something that doesnt feel right
She's the most beautiful woman!, captured my mind completely
I truly think Tom is one of the best interviewers i have ever seen. The fact that he activley goes out of his way to digest as much of his guest's information as possible truly blows nearly every other interviewer Ive seen, placing him and Naurdwar to be my 2 favorites in the industry.
Mr. Tom you are wonderful...I'm so grateful to know you and your job... God bless you...from Brazil
21:38 " The Universe may like the law of attraction but it likes a good hustle even more" LOVE IT!
Magical. Just magical. So incredible I am forwarding this to my kids. Just brilliant. ❤
So glad you liked it!
wow i admire her so much
I love and respect both of them, but as an individual who suffers from depression, watching this, I didn't feel like she was ever depressed or even knows what clinical depression really feels like. I know everybody's journey is different, but absolutely nothing she said in this video resonated with me. I am doing exactly what I love and I still hate myself, I am trying hard and doing behavioral therapy and I still can't control my mind when I am triggered... And even when I am doing something I like, I still feel tired. I can't sleep even if I have a proper sleep schedule, so I think skipping sleep is a bad idea in itself. And so on...
I relate to her in such a way that makes me feel like I'm on the right pace for ME. I've always heard "Don't go where there is a path, go where there is no path and leave a trail." Everyone has their own lane and lifes purpose is finding that lane, blazing that trail and encouraging others to find their lane. 🙌🙌 Thanks Lillie and Tom!! You both are super inspiring!!
Tom is a gift from the gods. It amazes me that he ask intelligent questions that provide insight and value to the listeners. Go Tom.
this is one the best episodes because my queen is in it also am huge fan Tom's introductions.. he's so kind, ur work is highly appreciated Mr. Tom Bilyeu
I love her “there’s no tips and tricks it’s a lot of work”...
Lilly Singh inspires me she is an amazing person....I wish I could be able to be as consistent and as positive as her
Now she has her own late night show on NBC!!! Incredible!!!
I watch Lilly Singh sometimes but I didn't know she's this self-aware and mentally strong.. you really are a Superwoman Lilly! I'm glad for you! And your perspective of things is really powerful! :D
I don't think that the word for what you're describing is passion instead of obsession. Lily Singh you're passionate about what you do and it is this passion that gives you your purpose. You're lucky to have figured it out. Love this and feel motivated💖
Hey! It's Lilly! I have been making videos for a couple years to deal with my own depression...definitely has helped. Now to get to those millions...
Gabrielle, I just subscribed :) Keep it up.
Thanks, and welcome Brandon.
Awesome well done, mad respect for you Gabrielle Angel Lilly
It's great to see Lilly on this show! 😀
The *best intro* award goes to 'Tom Bilyeu'. 😄 He's phenomenal with the intros. 💜
Be blessed, Tom! 🙏🏽
I was heavily depressed all day yesterday and it kept me frozen in time. Watching this and listening to all the great advice has given me more energy today. Hopefully I can keep the momentum going. Thank you for posting this interview.
TheNordicHunter keep watching toms videos! They help alot of ppl.get through the day! Best of luck to u!
Black Girl Entrepreneur Thank you. Hope you have a great day!
TheNordicHunter thanx same to you!
Building better peer groups, finding people I can relate to is a priority for me as I forge ahead into my unfolding... I love that she says her self esteem comes largely from her environment...improving mine lately. Extraordinarily obsessed.
Hi Pierre Antoine! I am feeling much better today, thank you. How are you doing today?
I agree. This is something I have to improve as well.
What a wonderful giving Woman! Really great questions & I agree that young people are amazing & do have great ideas. If you take the positives of the internet world where there is support, encouragement, laughter, acknowledging that fail happens but it's okay. I love that years ago when my daughter was watching Lilly on RUclips all the hard work that Lilly showed in reality is still Lilly's reality. Work hard, keep going. Have yourself as your best friend!!! 💖🦄💭
This is the best interview of Lilly . I love this guy. He really connected well and got the best out of Lilly
I love how Lilly answers all questions so truthfully and how real she is about everything. She deserves everything good in her life because she has worked for it and I aspire to be as smart, productive and healthy as her one day! ❤
She is such an inspiration! I am not surprised she ended up on Impact Theory 💖
that talk about ownership made me realize we need Jocko Willink on the podcast :)
They had an interview on Inside Quest and it was removed for some sort of legal/personal reasons.
I have to say as a long time fan of Lilly's...I went to her book tour and read her book, I watch her channel...I thought I had heard it all! This interview was AMAZING! Such practical advice for everyone at any age. As a logical thinker myself, the mechanical element she describes to compartmentalising thoughts and feelings is very similar to myself. As always Tom you outdid yourself, great questions!
The fact that she used her sadness and executed it on a platform such as RUclips is so fricking powerful, it makes me want to smash all my dreams and goals! Thank you Lily and Tom
Lilly has never failed to inspire me.. she's my role model.. my idol.. I want to be like her.. best 50 minutes of my life.. Thankyou so much for having my queen on your show Tom.. really looking forward for more impactful theories 😁
#lovelilly 💛🧡 one can sense the authenticity in her words. Thank you 🙏
Right.. just such a vibrant n real rawness, its beautiful to see . I absolutely love when beautiful looking woman can have me not even pay attention to it because I'm so encapsulated in their aura, personality, smarts etc 👏🏾👏🏾
I had to watch this video over and over again to truly understand her and i learned so much
To both of you and the rest of the team ...thank you .God bless you all.
Tom and Team , you guys continue to bring so much content to your subscribers. I love the diverse array of beautiful individuals you dissect for us to learn. Love that Lilly noted that it is important to have lows too so your highs are distinguishable.
Thank you and
Peace
I have been thinking about watching this video since it was released. I have been aware of Lilly Singh for years now but have never really been a big fan of her comedy. I understand why it is funny, it was just not for me. However, I never realized how much of an amazing, inspirational person she is. I am glad I was able to find this side of her and now I have even ordered her book and followed her social accounts. It's amazing how a 40 min interview can strip away all the misconceptions I had and show me who she really is. Truly inspiring!
She's absolute amazing ...the way she speaks movement of hands ..Oh Gosh !......can i have ENGLISH subtitles to understand more plz
I sooo feel her, I relate to her :) Being depressed and anxious really thaught me how to be happy. And I am also different than her because now I am following my psychology degree :))))
Awesome!!! As a fellow Indian woman I can relate. I wish I followed my passion instead of settling for what my parents wanted. But never too late I guess. But her parents are way more supportive and more relaxed than my parents though. One other silly thing - I don’t know many Indian parents who wanted their daughters to be teachers though (especially in that context of ‘doctors, lawyers etc’. Maybe professors but not teachers.
What route did you go ?
She had to prove her success in one year or she would have to go to grad school. Perhaps you need some kind of ultimatum to push you towards what you want to do.
Yesterday nyt I was feeling so unworthy..I had bought the book long back.. I read it and hugged it tightly to finally be able to sleep.
This is one of my favorite interviews indefinitely. You can tell that both Lilly and Tom are being honest and authentic. You can tell that he did his research and really meant every positive thing he said about Lilly. Finally someone who did All of their research!!!👌👌❤️😊
This woman motivates me like anything. Just lovee her
First time I hear of Lilly Singh or ever watched something by her. Very impressed how reflected she is. Thanks for the inspiration.
He asked Lilly every question I had reading her book THANK YOU FOR THIS AMAZING INTERVIEW!!
I love how much emphasis put on hard work. It's soo important. I have family members who have all the vision in the world but dont put in any hard work. I'm trying to coach them and will definitely be using some of Lilly's advice. Thank u
I love her, she's so inspiring and she's goals too. I loved the interview.
