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. Today, we're gonna be talking about a concept that every entrepreneur needs to understand why time is more valuable than money. It's easy to get caught up in the hustle for cash, but the reality is that money comes and goes while time only moves in one direction. So let's dive into why your time is the most valuable asset you have.

First, you can always make more money guys, okay? But you can never make more time. Every dollar you spend can be earned back in some way, but once you spend time, it's gone forever. That's why successful people focus on how they spend their time just as much, if not more, than how they spend their money. It's about getting the highest return on your time investment. Second, time determines your freedom. Having more money is great. But what good is it if you don't have any time to enjoy it? When you put it as a priority, you're building a life that gives you freedom, freedom to pursue your passions,

spend time with your family or simply just enjoy the journey. Time wealth is the real wealth because it gives you choices. Third, successful people leverage time by delegating, automating, and focusing on high impact activities. They understand that their time should be spent on tasks that move the needle, not on things that can be outsourced. The more you value your time, the more you'll find ways to maximize it,

and that's how you create lasting success. Remember guys, that the quality of your time matters just as much as your quantity. It's not about working 80 hour weeks to chase money. It's about spending your time on what truly matters. That's what leads to long term fulfillment and success. So time is more valuable than money because it's irreplaceable and it dictates your freedom. The way you spend your time defines your future So put a priority to it protect it use it wisely guys and as always let's level up
