Work On Your Game: Dominate With Mindset, Strategy & Execution

In this class, I’m starting a ten-part series on what it means to "be a wolf." Inspired by a scene from Training Day, we’ll dive into why you need to think like a wolf to protect yourself and others. As Denzel’s character says, "It takes a wolf to catch a wolf." Over the next episodes, I’ll break down traits that will help you handle people who don’t have good intentions. If you don’t want to be prey, you need to learn how to deal with the wolves of the world. Show Notes: [07:28]#1 Sharpen your verbal communication skills. [13:31]#2 Make yourself capable of physical violence, at least to the point of being able to defend yourself from someone else who is also capable. [18:28]#3 Practice and sharpen your focus.  [23:13]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://drinkAG1.com/WORKONYOURGAME  Get Dre’s Emails FREE:  Http://WorkOnMyGame.com  Free Audiobooks:  The Third Day: http://www.ThirdDayBook.com/audible The Mirror Of Motivation: http://www.MirrorOfMotivation.com/audible Get The Free Books: The Third Day: http://ThirdDayBook.com  The Mirror Of Motivation: http://MirrorOfMotivation.com The Overseas Basketball Blueprint: http://BallOverseas.com  Basketball: How To Play As Well As You Practice: http://HoopHandbook.com/Free  Donate:  CashApp: http://Cash.app/$DreBaldwin  PayPal: http://PayPal.me/DreAllDay  Be sure to Subscribe to have each new episode sent directly to you daily!

In this class, I talk about why “the market is never wrong.” I use Shaquille O’Neal as an example, explaining why he might feel frustrated seeing players like Rudy Gobert make more money today, even though Shaq was a much better player. But here’s the thing: the market decides what people get paid, not skill alone. It might seem unfair, but the market always knows what’s right. Let me break it down for you. Show Notes: [12:28]#1 The market is like the weather. [23:51]#2 You are worth what the market will bear combined with what you choose to accept. [31:11]#3 Many struggle to accept market realities due to emotional conditioning [33:08]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 1824: The "Race Hustler": Who, What, Why, And What To Do About Them 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://drinkAG1.com/WORKONYOURGAME  Get Dre’s Emails FREE:  Http://WorkOnMyGame.com  Free Audiobooks:  The Third Day: http://www.ThirdDayBook.com/audible The Mirror Of Motivation: http://www.MirrorOfMotivation.com/audible Get The Free Books: The Third Day: http://ThirdDayBook.com  The Mirror Of Motivation: http://MirrorOfMotivation.com The Overseas Basketball Blueprint: http://BallOverseas.com  Basketball: How To Play As Well As You Practice: http://HoopHandbook.com/Free  Donate:  CashApp: http://Cash.app/$DreBaldwin  PayPal: http://PayPal.me/DreAllDay  Be sure to Subscribe to have each new episode sent directly to you daily!

Today, we’re diving into what everyone talks about when it comes to personal and professional growth. No matter where you hear it—books, interviews, or from me—there are some key ideas about growth and achievement that everyone agrees on. While people might disagree on many things, these truths about success are universal.  Join me to find out what these important points are that can help you move forward! Show Notes: [03:18]#1 You must operate as if you are already successful. [11:45]#2 You must keep your mind locked on what you want, never focusing on what you don't want.  [16:18]#3 You must get off the treadmill of the familiar and step into the discomfort of change. [24:39]#4 Other people's paths are not your path.  [28:27]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 1207: Don't Settle For "Good Enough" Out Of Fear That You Won't Find "Better" 1699: 4 Ways To Avoid Living In The Past Forever: Sacrifice Your Sacred Cows 2820: Identifying & Embracing Your Unique Ability 2337: Eat The Meat, Spit Out The Bones 2023: The Life-Changing 48 Hour Experiment 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://drinkAG1.com/WORKONYOURGAME  Get Dre’s Emails FREE:  Http://WorkOnMyGame.com  Free Audiobooks:  The Third Day: http://www.ThirdDayBook.com/audible The Mirror Of Motivation: http://www.MirrorOfMotivation.com/audible Get The Free Books: The Third Day: http://ThirdDayBook.com  The Mirror Of Motivation: http://MirrorOfMotivation.com The Overseas Basketball Blueprint: http://BallOverseas.com  Basketball: How To Play As Well As You Practice: http://HoopHandbook.com/Free  Donate:  CashApp: http://Cash.app/$DreBaldwin  PayPal: http://PayPal.me/DreAllDay  Be sure to Subscribe to have each new episode sent directly to you daily!

Today’s class, we’re talking about freedom of opinion. I recently had a chat with someone who works in the medical industry. I shared my thoughts on how messed up the system is, and they got defensive because their whole career is tied to it. This made me realize that when you're invested in something, it can be hard to speak your mind. We’ll explore if you really have the freedom to express your opinions and how our jobs can shape what we say.  Get ready for some prompts to help you think about your own freedom of opinion! Show Notes: [07:28]#1 Could you have the opposite opinion of the one you have while keeping your job, your paycheck and your friends? [19:01]#2 How would you argue for or defend the other side? [27:33]#3 What opinions do you have that most people around you disagree with?

In today’s class, we finished our two-part series on the biggest mistakes I made in business. I talk about three big lessons: First, it’s super important to team up with the right people for mutual benefit. Second, moving to high-ticket offers (that’s $5,000 or more) can bring in clients who are more engaged and appreciative. Lastly, I challenge the idea that you have to work all the time to be valued. Top performers know when to work, when to train, and when to rest. I’m here to help you figure out how to use these lessons in your life and business! Show Notes: [02:21]#4 Not leveraging collaborations enough.  [10:33]#5 Taking too long to go high ticket. [16:31]#6 Working more out of obligation rather than focusing on high ROI activities.

In this class, I talk about the biggest mistakes I’ve made in business. Unlike my previous series on common entrepreneur mistakes, this one gets personal. I dive into the mistakes I’ve made myself, how they affected me, and what I’m doing to fix them. From trying to do everything on my own to dealing with less-than-ideal clients for the sake of money, I break down why these were bad decisions and how I’ve learned to avoid them. This is part one of a two-part series, so stay tuned for more. Show Notes: [03:08]#1 Doing everything by myself. [11:04]#2 Dealing with less than ideal people for revenue.

In today's masterclass, we covered the last three tips to build relationships and grow your business. First, adjust how you talk and listen to fit the person or group you're with. Second, give and receive referrals because they’re an easy way to find new customers. Lastly, look for joint ventures, where you team up with others to make more money together. These are smart ways to grow without doing all the work yourself. Show Notes: [02:34]#13 Adapt to communication styles. [12:47]#14 Provide referrals. [24:26]#15 Look to create joint ventures.

In this masterclass, we’re continuing our series on building relationships in business. Relationships fall apart when there’s no communication, so it’s important to stay in touch with your contacts. People’s needs change, and by keeping in touch, you can discover opportunities to help them or benefit from what they’re doing. Also, having something valuable to offer makes sure your connections stay meaningful, not just transactional.  Keep these ideas in mind as you build stronger business relationships. Show Notes: [02:47]#10  Follow up consistently.  [07:18]#11 Have something that others want or need.  [17:29]#12 Personalize your communication.  [24:19]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://drinkAG1.com/WORKONYOURGAME  Get Dre’s Emails FREE:  Http://WorkOnMyGame.com  Free Audiobooks:  The Third Day: http://www.ThirdDayBook.com/audible The Mirror Of Motivation: http://www.MirrorOfMotivation.com/audible Get The Free Books: The Third Day: http://ThirdDayBook.com  The Mirror Of Motivation: http://MirrorOfMotivation.com The Overseas Basketball Blueprint: http://BallOverseas.com  Basketball: How To Play As Well As You Practice: http://HoopHandbook.com/Free  Donate:  CashApp: http://Cash.app/$DreBaldwin  PayPal: http://PayPal.me/DreAllDay  Be sure to Subscribe to have each new episode sent directly to you daily!

In this masterclass, we keep talking about how to build strong business relationships. It’s all about "showing face" – staying connected with personal interactions, like meeting in person, making calls, or using video chats. If you don't check in regularly, relationships can fade, so it’s key to keep in touch with both your personal and professional network. Following up helps keep those connections alive and can lead to new chances. We also talk about how being the one who connects people can open doors for yourself and others. Show Notes: [02:34]#7 Show face. [11:47]#8 Be in the room.  [15:08]#9 Be a connector.

In this masterclass, we continue from where we left off, diving into point number four on building business relationships. The key is to understand what people want or need and offer it to them. The best way to do that? Listen closely to what they say. People will always drop hints about their desires if you pay attention. Then, we move to point number five: always offer value upfront. When you give something first, it opens the door to building strong connections. Listen in to learn more about how these strategies work in business and beyond.
