Transcript of The Truth About Work-Life Integration for Entrepreneurs
The Level Up Podcast w/ Paul AlexWelcome to the LevelUp 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 LevelUp right now. Welcome back to LevelUp podcast. I'm Paul Alex. In three minutes, you'll learn a calmer way to blend work and life. When I launched my first company, I I tried to split the two worlds. Work in one box, life in another box. The boxes kept breaking. Urgent calls came during dinner. Family moments popped up during planning. I felt guilty in both rooms, guys. Then I switched my view. Life is one room with many corners. There's some days that the work corner is bigger, some days that the family corner is bigger. All days, the love corner stays open. I started naming seasons. Launch season, family season, learning season, recovery season. The names actually brought peace to me. I shared them with people who mattered. I made plans that honor both ambition and love. See, we gave grace when the seesaw moved.
This mindset works for not only 9 to 5ers, but CEOs that are watching this right now. You got to be honest about your season. You got to protect what you value with clear words. Do not chase a bank account. Do not chase balance like a scale. Chase harmony like a song. Some notes are loud, some notes are soft. Together, they make music, right? Let your calendar reflect your values. Let your phone rest when your soul needs quiet. Let your relationship see your effort and your heart. You're not a machine. You are a person with a mission and people. Hold both with care. Here's the moral for the pod, guys. Integration is not perfect lines. It is honest seasons in shared respect.
