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

In today’s class, we’re talking about the difference between what contributes to your situation and what determines your outcome. External stuff might play a role, but it’s your internal decisions that make the final call. I will break it down and explain why you’ve got to make decisions for yourself—because if you don’t, life will decide for you, and you probably won’t like the result.  Tune in to learn how to take charge and own your outcomes. Show Notes: [03:28]#1 A contributing factor is externalities.  [15:46]#2 Determining factors are the internal stuff. [25:20]#3 Contributing factors exist to give you the option to use or not use your determining factors.

In today’s class, we’re talking about how to "turn on" and stay on. Inspired by Vince Carter’s Hall of Fame career and the critics he got about not always being fully activated, I will break down how this applies to all of us. Whether it’s in life, work, or anything you care about, the key is knowing how to turn yourself on and keep the momentum going. I’ll share simple tips to help you show up and bring your best every time. Show Notes: [05:33]#1 Have a reason to be on all the time.  [14:12]#2 Remind yourself of your reasoning until it becomes a habit.  [18:56]#3 Allow yourself to be pushed by outside sources.

In today’s class, we’re talking about the other part of the 80/20 rule. You’ve probably heard of it—80% of your results come from just 20% of your efforts. This is a real principle, not just a theory or opinion. We’ll look at that final 20%, why it matters sometimes and why it doesn’t always. You can use this rule in your work, sales, happiness, and productivity.  Let’s figure out when that last 20% actually makes a difference! Show Notes: [02:42]#1 Once you have achieved 80% of results with 20% of inputs, that's often good enough.  [13:25]#2 You can afford to invest 80% of your resources in getting to the last 20% of results because that last 20% can make a big difference. [22:18]#3 The mistake happens when we have already achieved 80% of the result, yet we keep working at giving inordinate amounts of resources to get small returns that do not produce rewards.  [25:45]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 2177: When "Good Enough" Is Good Enough 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 is about the power of negative thinking. You might not think negative thoughts have any value, but they do—if used the right way. It’s not about letting negativity take over, but about using it strategically when the time calls for it. I’ll explain how to use negative thinking to your advantage, when it’s helpful, and why it’s just as important as positive thinking. Let’s get into it! Show Notes: [03:10]#1 Negative energy is still energy, and it can be transmuted into action that produces positive results. [10:55]#2 Considering where things could possibly fail or not go according to plan is a good strategy.  [17:03]#3 Some people are more wired to respond to negative words or thoughts than they are wired to respond to positive material.  [21:28]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 2704: The Positive Power Of Negative Thinking 1068: Why You Need To Play More "Road Games" In Life 362: How To Win The "Road Games" Of Life 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 is about why we achieve identities, not just goals. I’m a big believer in setting goals—daily, monthly, yearly—and using them to guide your progress. But here’s the thing: you’re more likely to hit those goals when they align with how you see yourself. If your goals don’t match your personal identity, you’ll keep falling short.  In this class, we’ll talk about fixing that disconnect so you can actually achieve what you set out to do. Let’s dive in! Show Notes: [03:02]#1 Who you see yourself as or who you see yourself becoming is your future.  [07:27]#2 Your goals happen only when they are aligned with the way you see yourself or with how and who you see yourself becoming.  [16:24]#3 Any goals you set for the future must either align with who you already are or will require a shift in identity.  [22:17]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!

Today, we’re talking about the difference between getting what you can and getting what you want. Sometimes, people offer you things that don’t really match what you’re looking for, but you might feel tempted to take them anyway. I’ll share a real story about a speaking gig where the offer didn’t fully cover my needs, and how I decided whether to take it or not. We’ll also talk about knowing your worth, sticking to what you actually want, and not just settling for what’s handed to you.  If you’re ready to focus on what you really want in life, this one’s for you! Show Notes: [05:34]#1 Decide on what you want. 
 [10:08]#2 Stop accepting what you do not want. [16:29]#3 Standard adjustments, which require change and elimination.  [23:41]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 2668: What Standards Are You Willing To Set? 2097: Standards STILL Matter 1974: Standards: The Enemy Of Mediocrity 1331: Never Lower The Bar Of Standards 2349: You Need ABSOLUTES – Not Maybes 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!

Why do you do what you do? That’s what we’re talking about today—the "Why Framework." People want to know the reason behind your work, not just what you do. I’ll break down how I came up with this framework and how it helps you connect with your audience.  If you’re in business, sales, or just want to explain your purpose better, this class is for you! Show Notes: [05:57]#1 "I was doing X" - Explain the status quo situation. [12:05]#2 Presented with a problem or challenge. [18:45]#3 Trial and error for solutions. [24:03]#4 Using or sharing your solution. [28:31]#5 The epiphany - realizing what works. [31:18]#6 The conclusion of the story is "Now I'm here and things are good".

What does it mean to be qualified, and how do you actually get there?  Today, we’re breaking down this idea of "qualification" and why people love to bring it up—usually only when they disagree with you. We’ll talk about how this plays out in politics, business, sports, and more. Plus, I’ll show you how to handle it when someone questions your qualifications and how to avoid using this argument against others just because you don’t like what they’re saying.  Let’s talk about how to get qualified! Show Notes: [05:31]#1 All qualifications are subjective.  [18:38]#2 If qualification matters to you, then declare yourself qualified. [31:11]#3 Step up your level of competence and performance to match the qualifications that you want or have given to yourself.

Today, we’re talking about handling the boredom of success. Success isn’t all bright lights and excitement—it’s often about repeating the same things over and over, day after day. The real challenge is sticking with the process, even when it feels tedious or dull.  In this class, we’ll dive into why monotony is a part of success and how to push through it to achieve your goals. Let’s get into it! Show Notes: [04:23]#1 Can and how do you show up when it's no longer exciting? [19:01]#2 Can and how do you take action when you truly do not feel like taking action?  [23:36]#3 Things becoming routine is normal and expected is not something to fight against or try to avoid.  [28:00]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 2013: The SAME Things, The SAME Way, EVERY Time 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!
