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.
Hey guys, so for today's episode,
it's all about perseverance.
If there's one thing about my journey that has taught me,
it's that success is not about avoiding failure, but it's learning to persist through it.
Coming from an immigrant family, with my parents hailing all the way from Peru and Mexico,
the value of hard work and resilience was instilled in me from a young age.
But let me tell you, it's one thing to know
about perseverance. It's another to live it. So let's rewind back to those days of me working 80
to 100 hour work weeks as a detective in the city of Oakland. Yeah, those hours, they sucked. The
work, it was tough. But more than anything, it taught me the importance of focus and dedication.
Qualities that I didn't realize would become the cornerstone of my future in marketing and sales.
Guys, this is the only way I was able to go ahead and actually build a multi-eight-figure company.
When I started my first company a few years ago, I wasn't just transitioning from a detective to an entrepreneur. I was stepping into a completely unknown world. Failure, I faced it more times than I like to admit.
But with each setback, I learned to adapt and push forward. Now, let's talk about how you guys
can apply this to your own journey. First, understand that setbacks are the part of the
process. When you fail, it's tempting to stay down and just feel sorry for yourself.
But remember, every failure is just a stepping stone to your success.
You need to reflect on what went wrong and use it to make your next steps more informed and use strategy.
Second, surround yourself with people who uplift you. Guys, everybody that started with me
since the very beginning,
I've brought them with me till now, six years later.
During my toughest times, I leaned on my mentors
and my peers who reminded me of my goals
and pushed me to keep going.
And sometimes, I'm gonna be real honest with you,
it was just about helping someone else
in need to remind myself of the bigger picture,
that we're all in this journey
together trying to make a positive impact to change the world lastly never lose sight of why
you started guys know your why my why is my family for me it's about providing value and helping the
less fortunate as well every challenge i face is worth it if it means that i can support others
in finding their own path to
success. Man, that's all I got for today, guys. I hope you guys enjoyed this. Remember, perseverance
isn't just about enduring. It's about finding ways to thrive despite the odds. Keep pushing,
keep growing, and let's unlock the potential together. It's time to level up. Remember,
