    If You Get Significance From Spending Money… (2370)

    Build the mindset that creates wealth. In today’s episode, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros examine a powerful shift most people never make when it comes to money, identity, and long-term success. Many people focus on earning more, but far fewer examine the thinking patterns that shape how money is used, invested, or wasted. This conversation looks at the difference between short-term emotional decisions and strategic choices that build a stronger future. It also highlights why belief, identity, and personal responsibility influence financial outcomes far more than most people realize. If you want to understand why some people consistently build wealth while others repeat the same financial patterns, this episode challenges the mindset behind every decision involving money. _______________________ Learn more about: Where learning turns into action.

    EVERYONE Needs This Habit (2369)

    What if the biggest thing holding you back is the one thing you refuse to measure? In this episode, Kevin and Alan explain why tracking may be one of the most underrated habits in personal development. After years of coaching and thousands of conversations with high performers, they’ve noticed a consistent pattern. Many people say they want better results, yet they avoid looking closely at the numbers that reveal the truth. Kevin shares real examples of clients who didn’t realize what was happening in their own finances, while Alan breaks down a few simple metrics that can immediately increase clarity and decision-making. If you want to grow your income, strengthen your discipline, and make smarter choices, this episode challenges a habit most people overlook. _______________________ Learn more about: Book Alan’s Business Breakthrough Session.

    Feedback Keeps You Humble (2368)

    In today’s episode of Next Level University, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros confront a quiet truth about growth: if you are not intentionally getting better, you are slowly getting worse. Most people assume skill stays once it’s earned. It doesn’t. Without consistent reps, honest feedback, and real measurement, performance drifts, and standards quietly slip. They break down why mile markers matter, why testing yourself keeps you grounded, and how long-term mastery is built through disciplined repetition, not motivation. If you want to stay sharp in life, business, and personal development, this episode may change the way you think about progress. _______________________ Learn more about: Join Next Level Live: Level up your life in 2026.

    Don’t Feel Good About Bad Things… (2367)

    Your feelings are not always your friend. In this episode, Kevin and Alan examine how emotions quietly influence the decisions that shape your results, identity, and future. Drawing from years of coaching, building businesses, and producing thousands of episodes, they highlight a pattern they see constantly. Many people reward themselves emotionally for choices that feel good in the moment but slowly undermine long-term progress. This episode challenges you to pay attention to what your emotions are reinforcing and whether those signals are aligned with the life you want to build. Listen carefully. The decision that feels good today may deserve a second look. _______________________ Learn more about: Book Alan’s Business Breakthrough Session. Your first 30-minute coaching call is FREE.

    Choices And Consequences (2366)

    Why do small choices today quietly become the life you are living years later? In today’s episode, Kevin and Alan examine a principle most people overlook. Outcomes rarely appear overnight. They grow from the decisions repeated day after day. Many habits seem harmless in the moment because the consequences take time to surface. That delay is what makes them powerful. This episode looks at how daily choices shape long-term results and the patterns that influence identity and performance. When you start to see cause and effect more clearly, the way you make decisions begins to shift. Press play and take a closer look at the habits shaping your future. Your next result may already be forming. _______________________ Learn more about: Join Next Level Live: Level up your life in 2026.

    Acceptance Is The First Step (2364)

    You cannot improve what you refuse to accept. In today’s episode, Kevin and Alan break down the uncomfortable starting point of real self-improvement. Everyone wants growth, confidence, and better results, but far fewer people are willing to face the honest truths that make those outcomes possible. This conversation explores why self-awareness and acceptance sit at the foundation of personal development, leadership, and long-term progress. When the ego protects comfort over truth, growth stalls. When reality becomes clear, better decisions follow. Press play and see what happens when denial quietly leaves the room. _______________________ Episode Reference: The Pyramid of The Self - https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/16-how-build-your-best-self-from-ground-up-alan-lazaros-ya3oe/ Learn more about: Track the Work.

    Why Do People Actually Quit Chasing Their Dreams? (2363)

    Why do people stop chasing their dreams even when they once believed in them? In this episode, Kevin and Alan explore the real reason most people quit long before success arrives. It is rarely about effort. Belief fades. Expectations collide with reality. Uncertainty begins to outweigh the goal. Through years of entrepreneurship, coaching, and thousands of podcast episodes, they have watched the same pattern repeat. The people who keep going approach belief differently. They understand the uncomfortable space between starting and succeeding. Press play and confront the moment most people turn back. _______________________ Learn more about: Track the Work.
