Why Entrepreneurs Need to Think Like Investors

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 going to be talking about a mindset shift that could change your entire game. Why entrepreneurs need to start thinking like investors.
Here's the deal, guys. If you're running your business like a hustle, you're missing the bigger picture.
Entrepreneurs who succeed in long term know how to play the investment game, okay? It's not just about money here, guys, but with their time, their energy, and their resources. So let's go ahead and dive into what really matters.
First, investors think in terms of return, not just effort. Entrepreneurs often get stuck in the grind thinking of that working harder is the answer.
But for investors, investors don't focus on how much effort they're putting in guys. They focus on the return they're getting.
So you got to ask yourself this, like I asked myself this, where is my time and money generating the most results? Make sure to check out my YouTube channel, officialpaulalex.com for more motivational episodes. Look, I focus on high impact activities and stop wasting my energy on things that didn't move the needle in my businesses.
Second, investors diversify. Look, they don't put all their eggs in one basket and neither did I.
Neither should you. That doesn't mean chasing every single shiny object out there, guys.
It doesn't mean building multiple streams of income and leveraging your skills to create long-term value, okay? Look, where you got to go ahead and make it happen, whether it's scaling your business or creating passive income streams, think beyond just that one avenue of success. Entrepreneurs who think like investors don't just build businesses, they actually build portfolios.
And lastly, investors think long-term. Too many entrepreneurs are stuck in survival mode, guys, only focused on the next month.
Look, investors play the long game. They're willing to sacrifice now to win later.
So you got to ask yourself this one question. What moves can you make today that will pay off in one year, five years or even a decade? That's how you really build wealth here and freedom, guys.
So what's the bottom line here? If you want to level up as an entrepreneur, start thinking like an investor. Focus on the return.
Diversify your efforts, guys, and play the long game. A business to build a legacy, all right? So thanks for tuning in to Level Up Podcast.
I'm Paul Alex, reminding you that entrepreneurs don't just solve problems, guys. Investors create wealth.
Be both. Stay smart, stay focused.

let's keep leveling up. Thanks for listening up to the Level Up Podcast.
