“I knew that my blood, sweat, and tears was for the greater good. Not only was it to build the lifestyle I want but to also provide for my family. I knew that it was going to help and impact others.” Alex Pardo
Have A Sense Of Purpose To Make A Bigger Impact Every Day
In this CarrotCast episode, Trevor is joined by Alex Pardo, wholesaler, and entrepreneur in Miami, Florida.
He originally wanted to be a corporate CEO and was accepted into GE’s Financial Management Program, but found that 70-80 hour work weeks wasn’t going to be his future.
He chose to backpack around Europe for a period of time until he had that “ah-ha” moment…to venture into real estate wholesaling.
He found that by getting away from the corporate “structure” he was able to drive a personal mindset shift, create the lifestyle he wants and continue to make the lives of others around him better.
Since that mindset shift in 2005, his real estate business has gone through many phases. He now has a team of employees that allows him the freedom to work on other real estate and entrepreneur projects that fuel his passions.
