The Difference Between Playing To Win And Playing Not To Lose (2035)

In this episode of Next Level University, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros explore the mental shift that happens when you move from survival mode to playing with purpose. They break down how fear, scarcity, and low self-belief can keep you playing small — and why success often comes when you take bold steps with confidence. From gut-check gym sessions to pressure-filled business choices, they share personal stories and lessons that will help you understand your own sweet spot between pressure and progress.Learn more about:Next Level Nation - https://www.facebook.com/groups/459320958216700_____________________NLU is not just a podcast; it’s a gateway to a wealth of resources designed to help you achieve your goals and dreams.
