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. Okay, let's talk about overcoming setbacks. How many of you guys just feel like your day is going to complete shit? Well, I've been there, guys. It's not easy getting over that, starting your day positive. What I always tell people is we don't have control what is out of our control. And what you don't know is what you don't know, right?

But what I can help you with is actually staying positive, staying positive, shifting your mind to success. And how do I do this myself? I wake up every single day with a to-do list, guys. And this is what gives me purpose. No matter what you do, whether you are a first responder, an entrepreneur, or you're even a homemaker, everybody can use this type of strategy. It's very simple, guys. Before I go to sleep every single night, I go ahead and I write the most five most important things that I have to do the very next day.

These are what I call the non-negotiables, okay? They have to get done. If they don't get done, in my mind, it means that I didn't do what I had to do. So if you guys focus on doing this simple task, you guys, number one, will find more purpose. Number two, you're going to be able to feel more accomplished. And number three, you're going to have something to look forward to every single day, guys. Okay? This simple strategy has helped not only myself. I've actually taught this to my parents, my spouse, my siblings, my friends, my executive team, my employees. And it helps every single one of them, guys, become the best of the best every single day.

Now, when you deal with setbacks, let's say something goes wrong. You hear bad news, you have to really think to yourself, is me worrying, is me stressing about this setback going to help me accomplish what I have to do today? Because whenever I get a setback, guys, I used to just dwell on it. And dwelling on setbacks actually takes the energy away from you. Energy that you need to accomplish your day. Because the mind is a very powerful tool, okay? Our mind is everything.

So you have to be optimistic. You have to be positive. You have to be around the right environment. You have to be around the right environment. You have to be around the right heap. So whenever you get a setback, just take a deep breath. Know everything's going to be okay. It could always be worse. I always say you can change what's in your control. You are the most powerful person in your life. Don't ever let anyone say otherwise, okay? I believe in you. Your family believes in you. Your friends believe in you. No setback should set you back that day. You need to get it done. It has to work or it has to work.

I hope this helps, guys. I'll catch you on the next one. Remember, I always have your six. Make sure to share this episode with your family, friends, and anyone you care about.
