Hey, Bob here!
What happens when you realize the life you’re building isn’t actually yours?
At 26, Alan Lazaros had everything he thought he wanted—
a six-figure engineering career, financial security, and a life that looked great on paper.
But after a near-fatal car crash, he came face to face with a terrifying realization:
If this was the end, would I be proud of how I lived?
The answer? No.
His father had died in a car accident at 28,
and Alan was just two years away from that same fate.
He wasn’t just shaken—
his entire definition of success collapsed.
And that’s where real growth begins.
If there’s one thing Get Comfortable Being Uncomfortableteaches,
it’s that the hardest moments force us to wake up.
But what happens next is up to you.
Walking Away to Build Something Better
Alan had done everything right—top grades, a great job, climbing the corporate ladder.
But he realized he was climbing the wrong ladder.
So he did something most people never do—he walked away.
✅ He let go of relationships keeping him stuck.
✅ He stopped chasing external validation.
✅ He redefined success—not as what he had, but as how he lived.
Building the Life He Actually Wanted
Alan didn’t just leave his old life—he built a new one.
He immersed himself in mindset, personal growth, and human behavior,
surrounding himself with mentors who had what he truly wanted—fulfillment.
That’s why he co-founded Next Level University,
a global education company helping people maximize their potential
in health, wealth, and love.
Because most people don’t struggle with talent or intelligence—
they struggle with belief and consistency.
Lessons from Alan’s Journey
1. Success Without Fulfillment is a Dead End
If success costs you your happiness, it’s not success.
2. Your Environment is Either Building You or Breaking You
You don’t rise above your environment—you sink to it.
3. Discomfort is the Price of Reinvention
Every big transformation starts with an uncomfortable decision.
Why This Matters
Alan had to almost die to wake up.
But you don’t have to wait for a breakdown
to start building a life that actually fulfills you.
Uncomfortable Pick of the Week
Movie: The Truman Show–
A story about breaking free from a life that was designed for you—
and choosing one you truly want.
Because climbing to the top doesn’t mean anything if it’s the wrong mountain.
Until next time,
Bob
