Jay Agudo

Early Foundations

Jay Agudo’s story begins in Harrison, New Jersey, where he grew up in a working-class family. His parents were Cuban immigrants, and after their divorce when Jay was nine, he experienced the challenges of living in low-income housing and relying on welfare. Those early years taught him resilience and responsibility — lessons that would carry through his entire career.

The Power of Mindset

At 18, while working his first job, Jay was given a simple rule by his boss’s father: whenever someone asked him how he felt, he had to respond with one word — “Terrific.” If he didn’t, he owed a quarter to the office jar. That small exercise planted a seed. Jay didn’t realize it at the time, but it was his first exposure to the power of mindset. To this day, he still answers that question the same way.

Leadership Through Responsibility

By 20, Jay was raising a family of his own, and leadership was no longer optional — it was necessary. Providing for his two sons and wife gave him a sense of purpose and direction that went far beyond personal ambition. It was here that he first understood what it meant to set goals not just for himself, but for others who depended on him.

Corporate Success

At 28, Jay entered the corporate world, landing his first professional role in a billion-dollar corporation. It was a dream realized — as a boy, he had admired cubicles while helping his mother clean offices, imagining himself one day working inside them. Now, that vision was reality.

From there, he went on to manage multimillion-dollar projects for companies like T-Mobile, Tellabs, Sprint PCS, Ericsson, and Nokia. His precision, consistency, and results earned him a reputation as someone who could be trusted with high-stakes outcomes.

The Spark of Coaching

But Jay’s story didn’t end with corporate success. In 1992, an early mentor coached him on how to speak in front of groups. Though shy at first, he grew into a confident communicator — a skill that would later become central to his coaching career. Then, in 2019, while teaching a two-week online class on manifesting, he noticed something striking: even after seven days, most participants weren’t achieving the results they hoped for.

That realization became a spark moment. He understood that people needed more than inspiration — they needed a structured, repeatable system.

Mynifest and The Law of Achieved

From that insight, Mynifest was born — a fresh approach to moving beyond surface-level motivation. Soon after, Jay, together with CJ, expanded that framework into what became The Law of Achieved: a principle-driven system that transforms clarity and accountability into measurable progress. From there, the foundation for Achieved Solutions Coaching was set, built not just on ideas, but on proven methods designed for long-term success.

Legacy and Belief

Today, Jay lives by a simple belief: we have control over what we create. He embodies this daily through conscious awareness, affirmations, and deliberate action — and teaches others to do the same. His favorite mantra, “I am a healthy and wealthy strong young man,” is more than words; it’s a reminder that mindset precedes results.

Looking forward, Jay hopes his legacy will be a body of work that endures for generations — tools, systems, and methods that people can rely on to achieve their goals, long after he’s gone. As he often says: “If it works for me, it can work for others.”

CJ

A Voice for Transformation

With years of motivational speaking nationwide, CJ's journey from resilience to leadership has shaped a career dedicated to transforming lives. Known for his ability to connect deeply with audiences, CJ empowers individuals to see beyond limitation and embrace the discipline of achievement.

Early Foundations

CJ’s early life was defined by movement. His family traveled across the country in search of opportunity, exposing him to diverse communities, schools, and cultures. What might have been a disruptive upbringing instead became an education — teaching CJ adaptability, perspective, and a lived understanding of human psychology.

Raised by hardworking parents, CJ was instilled with both resilience and empathy. His father modeled discipline and perseverance, while his mother exemplified compassion and humility. This balance became the foundation of his character and the lens through which he would one day lead and inspire others.

The Turning Point

As life went on, he would soon experience a dark period marked by depression, as a suicide attempt became the defining shift in his life. From that moment forward, CJ carried a renewed appreciation for life and purpose — a turning point that propelled him into motivational speaking in 2010.

A Voice for Change

Since then, CJ has delivered his message to audiences nationwide — speaking at universities, boardrooms, community events, corporations, major conferences, and private sessions. Two examples include Emporia State University and the Missouri Department of Mental Health’s Show Me You Care Suicide Prevention Conference. His philosophy is simple but powerful: “If you have a heartbeat, you have a purpose.”

At the start of his speaking career, CJ discovered his natural ability to motivate audiences and deliver powerful messages. He attributes this to a lifelong journey of observing effective leaders and applying those lessons to his own interactions.

Partnership and Legacy

Guided by this belief, CJ joined forces with Jay Agudo to create Achieved Solutions Coaching, a platform built not on fleeting motivation but on systems of clarity, accountability, and repeatable success. Together, they are reshaping how people approach goals — moving beyond inspiration to measurable transformation.

Looking to the future, CJ’s hope is clear: to be remembered not for recognition, but for impact. His legacy is in lives changed — individuals, families, and communities empowered to achieve more, equipped with the tools they already carry within.
