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. What's up, everybody, and welcome back to the Level Up Podcast. I'm Paul Alex, and today we're gonna be hitting a real topic. How to keep going when motivation runs dry. Let's be honest here guys, motivation comes and goes. It's like a spark, not a fuel source, okay?

So if you're relying on motivation to keep you moving, you're already setting yourself up to stop. So how do you keep going when that spark fizzles out? Let's get into it. First, focus on discipline over motivation. Discipline is what gets you out of bed when you don't feel like it. When I was working 80 hours plus as a detective

in law enforcement and building my first business on the side, I wasn't motivated every day, guys. I'm gonna be honest with you. I was exhausted, I was tired, but I had the discipline to show up because I knew my why. Motivation, make sure to check out my YouTube channel, official paulalex.com for more motivational episodes. Is fleeting, discipline is permanent.

So second, remind yourself of the bigger picture. When you feel like quitting, remember why you started. For me, it was about creating freedom, time time freedom not just for myself, but for my family So when I thought about the life I was building quitting wasn't an option Your goals are bigger than your feelings guys You got to stay connected to your purpose and push through the moments when you want to stop and lastly you have to break it down into small wins. Motivation runs dry. But when you're only focused on the big overwhelming goal, instead what you need to do is set small

achievable milestones guys. You got to celebrate those wins. You got to use them to fuel the momentum. Progression, no matter how small, keeps the engine running guys. So what's the bottom line here? Motivation is great guys, but discipline, purpose and small wins is what kept me going in the game and it's gonna keep you going in the game as well. Don't let the lack of motivation stop you from becoming the person you're meant to be in life, okay?

So thanks for tuning in to the Lowball Podcast. I'm Paul Alex reminding you that motivation gets you started guys, but discipline keeps you going. You gotta stay focused, you gotta stay relentless. And as always, keep leveling up. Thanks for listening up to the Level Up Podcast. If you enjoyed today's episode, make sure to share with a family, friend,
