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 to be talking about a topic that separates the winners from the wannabes, resilience. Let me be clear right here, if you're not resilient, you're not going to make it in life and in business, period.

So life's going to throw you punches, you're just going to hit walls, and if you fold every time things get tough, you're done. I'm telling you right now. So let's get into the brutal truth about what it really takes to be resilient, guys. All right? So first, stop expecting things to be easy, guys. Too many people think resilience is about

bouncing back when things go wrong. No, it's about expecting challenges and running straight through them anyways. When I was working as a cop, 80 to 100 hour work weeks guys, trying to build my businesses, I didn't sit around hoping things would get easier. Make sure to check out my YouTube channel,

It's built when you keep pushing, even when everything feels like it's falling apart. Second, you got to get comfortable with discomfort. You better learn how to take hits and keep moving. I've had businesses

fail, people doubt me, and life punched me in the face more times than I can count. But here's the thing, I never stayed down guys. That's resilient. It's not about avoiding pain, it's about using it as fuel to go harder. So if you're running from discomfort, you're running from growth. And lastly, resilience is a choice. You either choose to let your obstacles define you or you choose to rise above them. Every time life knocked me down, I had two choices. Stay down or get back stronger. I chose to get up and that's why here today

I'm running multiple eight figure businesses. You can make that a choice too, but it starts with your mindset. Bottom line, resilience isn't a talent, it's a decision. You gotta embrace the struggle, face the pain and keep moving forward. That's how you level up in life and in business. Guys, thanks for tuning in to Level Up Podcast.

I'm Paul Alex reminding you that life's going to test you. It's how you respond that defines you. Stay resilient. And as always, let's level up. Thanks for listening up to the Level Up Podcast.
