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? Welcome back to the Level Up Podcast. I'm Paul Alex, and today we're gonna be diving into a trait that separates the winners from the wannabes, entrepreneurial grit. Let's be real, starting and running a business isn't easy.

It's not supposed to be, but the difference between success and failure isn't talent, luck or even resources, it's grit. The ability to push through when things get tough, the ability to keep showing up day after day. Let's talk about how to build it. First, grit starts with a powerful why. Listen, if your reason for doing this isn't bigger than your excuses, you'll quit at the first sign of trouble. When I left law enforcement to pursue entrepreneurship, I wasn't just chasing a paycheck. I was chasing freedom, a legacy, and the chance to change lives. Your why is the fuel that keeps the fire burning when the road gets rough.

Second, you gotta embrace the grind. Make sure to check out my YouTube channel, official paulalex.com, for more motivational episodes. Grit isn't glamorous. It's built in the trenches, the late nights, the early mornings, and the setbacks, the failures. But here's the thing, every hard moment is building your resilience. It's preparing you for the next level. You can't shortcut grit. It's earned one challenge at a time.

And lastly, learn to love the process, guys. Grit isn't just about enduring. It's about finding joy in the process. Here, the ups, the downs, the lessons along the way. When you fall in love with the process, the results take care of themselves. You gotta focus on the progression you're making, the lessons along the way. When you fall in love with the process, the results take care of themselves. You gotta focus on the progression you're making, not the destination.

So what's the bottom line? Grit isn't optional, it's essential. It's the ability to keep going when most people stop, to push forward when everything says give up. You gotta find your why. You gotta embrace the grind and love the process. That's how you cultivate grit. So thanks for tuning in to Lovell Podcast.

I'm Paul Alex reminding you that grit isn't just about what you do, it's who you are. You gotta stay relentless, you gotta stay resilient. And as always, let's level up.
