Welcome to the Level Up Podcast. I'm your host, Paul Alex. I went from being a cop to an eight-figure entrepreneur that helps average people like you and me make money every single day. I created this podcast to help you get motivated and to crush your goals. Let's win together. Remember, I have your six. Get ready to level up right now. Let's discuss a tough but necessary topic today, the impact of your social circle on your personal and professional growth. Specifically, why it might be time to quit hanging out with losers. Now, guys, first, let's define what I mean by losers. It's not about financial status. I don't give a shit if somebody's rich, poor, or whatever, right? Or their achievements or popularity. When I say losers, I'm talking about individuals with negative attitudes, a lack of ambitions, or those who consistently make poor choices that prevent them and potentially you from growing. It's a harsh truth, but hey, somebody has to keep it real, right? But the

people that you spend time with will influence your thoughts, your decisions, and your actions. You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with. If those people are complainers, slackers, or those who refuse to take responsibility for their lives and their habits, they're unlikely to rub off on you. So why is it critical to assess who you hang out with? Well, if you're striving to improve, to achieve goals, to live a more fulfilling life, you need a supportive network. This doesn't mean everyone you know must be a high achiever. Rather, it's about surrounding yourself with people who push you to be better, who challenge you positively, and who share your values of growth and responsibilities.

So look, here are three main needle movers that I would recommend to you. Number one, evaluate your relationships. So take stock of your relationships. Ask yourself, does this person add value to my life? Are they supportive? Do they motivate me to achieve more? If the answers are no, it might be time to distance yourself. or necessary set boundaries limit your exposure to the negativity or the time wasting activities be polite but be firm about what you can and cannot engage in and then number three seek out positive influences you got to actively look for new connections who align more closely with what you inspire to be. Attend business conferences.

Join clubs or groups related to your interests. Or get involved in community projects. Make an effort to meet people who inspire you. So, by making these changes, it's dramatically helped me in life. It's dramatically helped me become a multimillionaire. It's helped me with my financial status, but the way I think as well, mindset. So I'm not saying that we're trying to think like we're better than others, but it's about making the right choices for your own wellbeing and success. You owe it to yourself to be selective about who you allow into

your life, whether it's a business partner or whether it's a partner for personal reasons or friends or it doesn't matter. You determine that. Lastly, as you make these changes, focus on also being the kind of friend or acquaintance you want in others. Be supportive, be positive, and contribute value to the lives of those around you. Positive relationships are a two-way street. You gotta reassess your social circle, which isn't easy, but it's often necessary. It's about surrounding yourself with positivity

and people who encourage your growth. So take a good look around you and make sure you're not letting your potential be dragged down by the wrong crowd. I'm encouraging you to keep growing, keep striving, and to carefully choose the company you keep. So evaluate your circle, elevate your life, keep pushing forward, and never settle less than what you deserve. You got to stay positive, stay motivated, and as always, keep leveling up. Remember, I always have your six. Make sure to share this episode with your family, friends, and anyone you care about. The world's already hard enough, and we need to take care of each other.
