It's the repetition of building and actually pushing resistance. We've got to push resistance, that adversity, that challenge, all of those things which force us to grow as individuals."</em></blockquote><blockquote><em>"One belief or mantra that I picked up as a teenager and never forgot is that there's nothing worse than looking back at the end of your life and thinking, 'Why didn't I do that?' I don't want to ever have that regret. I want to look back and say, 'Look what we did here. Look what we created.'"</em></blockquote><blockquote><em>"The darkest time of the night is actually just before dawn. The key is knowing that as time goes on, dawn will come. Even at that lowest point, you might not like it, but you can learn from it and grow. It takes the sting out, and you can move forward."</em></blockquote><h2>Connect with Paul</h2><p>Website - <a href="https://www.pauladamson.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.pauladamson.com</a></p><p>Instagram - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/pauladamsonuk/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/pauladamsonuk/	</a></p><p>Facebook -<a href="https://www.facebook.com/sunshinestyles" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.facebook.com/sunshinestyles</a></p><p>LinkedIn -<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/sunshinejchapman" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> </a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/paul-adamson" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/paul-adamson</a></p><h2>Connect with Joe</h2><p>Turn Around Media - <a href="https://aturnmedia.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://aturnmedia.com/</a></p><p>LinkedIn - <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/drjoesimon/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/drjoesimon/</a></p><p>Instagram - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/dr_joe_simon/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/dr_joe_simon/</a></p><p>🎙️</p><p>Podcast Production &amp; Marketing by <a href="https://fullcast.co/sn" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FullCast</a></p>]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In this episode of "Millionaire Mile," host Joe Simon takes a walk with Paul Adamson, a former professional sailor turned entrepreneur.

It's the repetition of building and actually pushing resistance. We've got to push resistance, that adversity, that challenge, all of those things which force us to grow as individuals."</em></blockquote><blockquote><em>"One belief or mantra that I picked up as a teenager and never forgot is that there's nothing worse than looking back at the end of your life and thinking, 'Why didn't I do that?' I don't want to ever have that regret. I want to look back and say, 'Look what we did here. Look what we created.'"</em></blockquote><blockquote><em>"The darkest time of the night is actually just before dawn. The key is knowing that as time goes on, dawn will come. Even at that lowest point, you might not like it, but you can learn from it and grow. It takes the sting out, and you can move forward."</em></blockquote><h2>Connect with Paul</h2><p>Website - <a href="https://www.pauladamson.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.pauladamson.com</a></p><p>Instagram - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/pauladamsonuk/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/pauladamsonuk/	</a></p><p>Facebook -<a href="https://www.facebook.com/sunshinestyles" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.facebook.com/sunshinestyles</a></p><p>LinkedIn -<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/sunshinejchapman" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> </a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/paul-adamson" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/paul-adamson</a></p><h2>Connect with Joe</h2><p>Turn Around Media - <a href="https://aturnmedia.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://aturnmedia.com/</a></p><p>LinkedIn - <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/drjoesimon/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/drjoesimon/</a></p><p>Instagram - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/dr_joe_simon/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/dr_joe_simon/</a></p><p>🎙️</p><p>Podcast Production &amp; Marketing by <a href="https://fullcast.co/sn" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FullCast</a></p>]]></content:encoded><link><![CDATA[https://themillionairemile.com/]]></link><guid isPermaLink="false">15c7c328-bc73-4b1c-88a3-aff3f5f2f150</guid><itunes:image href="https://artwork.captivate.fm/9d0c38cd-4302-4083-add2-d8b314d57dc7/WHUUMduPeVB9r3LrKC5AVFTt.jpg"/><dc:creator><![CDATA[Joe Simon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 13 Aug 2024 09:00:00 -0500</pubDate><enclosure url="https://podcasts.captivate.fm/media/63535ec4-1082-4d48-8501-3411fc0675a4/TMM004-Paul-Adamson-Mastered.mp3" length="22350411" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:duration>11:36</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType><itunes:episode>4</itunes:episode><podcast:episode>4</podcast:episode><itunes:author>Joe Simon</itunes:author><podcast:transcript url="https://transcripts.captivate.fm/transcript/aa794bb1-0feb-41a0-a719-47a00b0146a8/index.html" type="text/html"/></item><item><title>3: From Vietnam Refugee to Informed Investor: Tulinh Tran&apos;s Path to Financial Mastery</title><itunes:title>3: From Vietnam Refugee to Informed Investor: Tulinh Tran&apos;s Path to Financial Mastery</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode of "The Millionaire Mile," host Joe Simon sits down with Tulinh Tran, a former Vietnam refugee turned successful investor.
