Work On Your Game: Mental Toughness, Confidence & Discipline From A Professional Basketball Athlete

Today, we’re talking about how to know when to stop. Everything in life eventually ends, so it’s important to know when it’s time to move on, whether it’s from a job, a relationship, or anything else. In this class, I’ll show you how to decide when enough is enough and how to walk away on your own terms. Show Notes: [03:40]#1 It is better to leave too early than to leave too late.    [12:59]#2 When the future will better after you, and you are sure of it.    [21:15]#3 When all of your goals have been accomplished.

Let's talk about how to live from the end, inspired by Neville Goddard's teachings. Neville, a mystic who interpreted the Bible in a unique way, believed that to get what you want, you have to start acting like you already have it. I’m taking that idea and making it my own, so you can use it to step up your game. Show Notes: [03:37]#1 Decide what the end game will be.  [09:54]#2 Condition yourself to feel and think as you would once the end has been achieved.   [18:32]#3 Have the discipline to keep your focus on the end game, regardless of what is happening in the present.  [23:45]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 2386:How To Defeat The Habit Of Drifting 1037: How To Stop "Drifting" Through Life 2918: 3 Ways To Condition Your Subconscious Mind 2383: How The Law Of Attraction REALLY Works (Part 1 of 2) 2384: How The Law Of Attraction REALLY Works (Part 2 of 2) — Next Steps: Text Dre Baldwin: Text Dre at 1.305.384.6894 (or go to http://www.DreAllDay.com/Text) Work On Your Game University: http://www.Wo

Ready to shake things up and change the game for real? Today’s class, I’m breaking down what it takes to step into any space and flip the script. We're talking about having the guts to challenge the usual ways, bending the rules to create massive success, and showing—rather than telling—why your way works. This is about being the one who sets a new standard, making others follow your lead because they see you doing it, not just talking about it. If you’re serious about taking your game to the next level, hit play and let’s get into it. Show Notes: [03:18]#1 Have some balls.       [12:35]#2 Have less respect for norms, rules, and traditions.    [17:20]#3 Prove yourself right.   [20:52]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 2256: Key Entrepreneurship Asset: BALLS 1796: Get Some Balls! 952: How To Bet On Yourself -- And WIN 919: How To Bet On Yourself — Next Steps: Text Dre Baldwin: Text Dre at 1.305.384.6894 (or go to http://www.DreAllDay.com/Text) Work On Your Game University: http://www.WorkOnYourGameUniv

Power isn’t given—it’s taken. If you’re sitting around waiting for power to be handed to you, you’re missing the point. Power is something you have to go after, something you have to earn. It's not for the passive; it’s for the people ready to step up and take control. In this class, I’m breaking down what power really means—the ability to influence outcomes and direct your life the way you want. Just like freedom, power has a cost, and it’s not just going to fall into your lap. We’re talking about the effort, the strategy, and the mindset you need to make power yours. This isn’t about waiting for permission; it’s about taking what’s yours and making things happen. Show Notes: [03:48]#1 Those who wish to come into power must be willing to take it.       [09:13]#2 Although we are in the era of collaboration, life is still an ongoing competition.     [15:43]#3 General rule, the winners go further than the losers go.   [19:22]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 3022: Freedom Is NOT Free — Next Steps: Text Dre B

Let’s dive into something crucial today—compartmentalization. It’s all about keeping your life in check so one area doesn’t mess up another. Trust me, this is a game-changer. In this class, I’m breaking down what it really means to compartmentalize. Think of it like how pro athletes keep their game face on the field and leave personal stuff off it. They don’t let anything leak into the wrong place, and neither should you. We’re talking about dividing your life into sections so that no part of it drags the rest down. By the end of this, you’ll know exactly how to compartmentalize like a pro, and more importantly, you’ll know why it’s key to leveling up every area of your life. So, if you’re ready to learn how to keep every part of your life in its lane, hit play now and let’s get into it. Show Notes: [03:06]#1 Do not allow what's happening in one area to affect how you show up in another area, at least not in a negative way.       [09:51]#2 Put things in their proper boxes and handle them when it is time t

In today's class, we're talking about what it really means to challenge the norms and build a life full of discipline, confidence, and mental toughness. Inspired by the great Dan Kennedy and his "Renegade Millionaire" program, I’m breaking down how you can take these renegade principles and apply them to your life—not just in business, but in everything you do. This isn’t just about following the crowd; it’s about thinking differently, pushing boundaries, and creating your own path. I’m going to show you how to develop that renegade mindset that will help you take your game to the next level. Hit that play button and let's get into how you can start being a renegade today. Show Notes: [04:57] Massive success is only possible when you decide to go against the grain and do so successfully.      [13:18]#2 Look for rules, standards and norms that you can break and break them.   [20:48]#3 Be mentally tough enough to not succumb to external pressure to go back to conforming, which is what most people do when c

Today’s class, "Every Energy Is Useful," we're diving deep into why energy is your ultimate game-changer. You might've heard me say this before, and if you haven't, trust me, it won't be the last time: energy is 85% of the job in life. Seriously, it might even be 90 or 97%. Whether you’re striving for action, creativity, or mental toughness, energy is the fuel you need. We’ll break down why energy, scientifically defined as the capacity to do work, is crucial for achieving anything you want in life. We'll also talk about how energy fits into the big picture alongside time, money, attention, and focus, and how it’s vital for performing at your highest level, especially when you’ve got an opponent to beat. Today, we’ll show you how to use every type of energy you have, even the ones you don’t want, to get to where you need to be. Ready to tap into the full potential of your energy? Tune in now and let's get to work on becoming mentally unstoppable. Show Notes: [04:04]#1 Energy is 85% of the job. When you hav

Ever wondered why you should listen to people you fundamentally disagree with? It might just be the key to unlocking your critical thinking and personal growth. Back in 2016, when Donald Trump won the presidency, I was stunned. I realized I had been listening to too many people who thought the same way I did. Everyone around me said he couldn't win—it was just a publicity stunt. But when he won, it hit me hard. I had been in an echo chamber. From that point on, I made it a habit to follow and listen to people I disagree with. It opened my eyes and made me a better thinker, someone who isn't afraid to challenge my own beliefs. So, why should you do the same? Tune in to this episode and find out how engaging with different viewpoints can make you mentally unstoppable. Don’t miss it! Show Notes: [04:52]#1 It is a critical thinking challenge.   [14:56]#2 You might learn something or find that you agree with them on some things.   [19:05]#3 You gotta know what every side is up to.  [26:56]Recap Episodes Me

Years ago, during a Toastmasters meeting, I heard someone boldly claim that freedom is free. This statement stuck with me, and over the years, I've realized just how misguided it is. Many people live under the illusion that freedom is a given, never questioning the unseen struggles that secure it. Today, I'll clear up this misconception and shed light on the true price of the freedom you enjoy. Show Notes: [03:47]#1 The trade-off of freedom is safety and security.  [15:10]#2 Whatever freedom you do have that you did not directly pay for, understand that it is being paid for, just not by you. [23:23]#3 If you want to have more freedom, more autonomy, and more leverage to move about the world any way that you wish, understand you must give up some of your safety and security in order to get it.  [27:54]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 2708: Freedom & Security Are Opposites 2174: There Are No Perfect Scenarios – Only Trade-Offs 2733: Living In "The Void" — Next Steps: Text Dre Baldwin: Text Dre at 1.305.384

Today’s class is about why people conform. Conform means to comply with rules, standards, or laws. Compliance isn't always bad. We follow laws to avoid jail, and high performers set their own standards. Without compliance, there'd be chaos—imagine ignoring traffic lights or building codes. But many people conform unnecessarily, limiting their potential and opportunities. Today, I'll explain these unnecessary ways of complying, why they happen, and what you can do about it. Show Notes: [04:27]#1 It's easy to follow the crowd. [09:45]#2 Going against the grain is emotionally painful, and you will be attacked for it.   [21:02]#3 If it were easy to not conform, it wouldn't be what it is.

People-pleasing often stems from a desire to keep things smooth and harmonious, but this habit can seriously hold you back. Today’s class is how to break free from the habit of people-pleasing once and for all. This isn’t a metaphorical discussion—it's a direct call to action to stop sacrificing your own well-being for the approval of others. Show Notes: [04:00]#1 Empower yourself.

Ever notice how teams in football go all out in the last two minutes? Why can't we live like that every day? In this class, we’ll talk about  the '2-minute warning' energy seen in American football.

I’ve talked to many entrepreneurs and salespeople who struggle with knowing how often to follow up with prospects. Should you keep reaching out or give up? Today’s class is the mindset you need. When you approach a prospect, one of four things will happen: they buy, they clearly say no, their business closes, or they’re not available to buy. I’ll share how to handle each of these outcomes so you can navigate your sales interactions with confidence and clarity. Show Notes: [05:28]#1 They buy.  [09:36]#2 Give you a clear no.  [18:43]#3 We die.

In this class we’ll talk about  why having something to prove is one of the most powerful motivators. While there are moments when you don't need to prove anything to anyone, the urgency and drive to prove yourself can push you to unparalleled levels of performance. From legendary stories like Lee Iacocca revitalizing Chrysler after being fired from Ford to Michael Jordan manufacturing rivalries to maintain his competitive edge, having a point to prove has led to extraordinary achievements. Even high-profile figures like Donald Trump and Ted Williams have used this energy to fuel their success, showing that the drive to prove oneself can lead to significant accomplishments and personal growth. Listen now and discover how you can use the need to prove yourself as a catalyst for reaching new heights in your game. Show Notes: [04:11]#1 Having something to prove is a great motivator and is an impetus to urgent and determined action.  [12:23]#2 Having nothing to prove leads to complacency and non urgent behavi

I believe in the power of persistence. Overnight success stories are rare; consistent effort is the key. I've seen countless individuals build empires brick by brick. It's about showing up daily, learning, and adapting. Remember, your journey is unique. Don't compare yourself to others. Focus on your path, and enjoy the process. Show Notes: [04:55]#1 life is short and long at the same time.  [11:21]#2 Because of the deluge of material, content, ideas and sheer people out there these days, and there are a lot of us, the world's population is growing very quickly, it is hard to get noticed!

[09:09]#2 Ego often gets in a way when you need to stop doing something that you are used to doing or that you're good at, or you need to just put your pride to the side and admit that something you've been doing is just not working.

Are you ready to stop chasing happiness and start achieving real results? Today’s class is about  why happiness shouldn’t be your main goal if you’re aiming for high performance and lasting success. Show Notes: [03:48]#1 Too many people these days focus on happiness, which is often linked with comfort and ease of action. [10:02]#2 This is a performance and results based business, not a happiness and good feeling based business.  [16:57]#3 It is completely fine.

I've always been drawn to the idea of limitless potential. There's something intoxicating about pushing boundaries and striving for constant improvement. But I’ve also realized that raw motivation alone isn’t enough. It's the consistent, disciplined action that truly separates the dreamers from the doers. Show Notes: [04:04]#1 Motivation gives you a reason to move yourself to action more readily than information.  [16:53]#2 Motivation is a starting point that triggers long-term discipline.  [21:23]#3 It is hard to simply install discipline into another person unless you have some level of authority and ability to administer repercussions and punishments to that person, because some of you will hear this, or maybe you'll hear it and be inspired to think, you know what?  [27:16] Recap — Next Steps: Text Dre Baldwin: Text Dre at 1.305.384.6894 (or go to http://www.DreAllDay.com/Text) Work On Your Game University: http://www.WorkOnYourGameUniversity.com  Sponsor: AG1 by Athletic Greens: http://drinkAG
