#3057: The Grass is NOT Greener
In this class, we dive into the idea that “the grass is not always greener.” Inspired by Earl Nightingale’s story of the “acres of diamonds,” we learn about two farmers who traded their lands only to find treasures they overlooked when they were focused on what the other had. The message is clear: often, we overlook the potential in our own situations while envying others.
Let’s learn how to find the hidden gems right where we are.
Show Notes:
[04:48]#1 Everything looks great and better than your thing from far away.
[11:53]#2 Nothing is ever as good as it appears to be on the surface.
[16:12]#3 The grass is greener where the grass is being watered.

#3052: Inequality & Inequity Is a Feature – Not A Bug
Today, we’re talking about inequality and inequity—things people often say are bad and need to be fixed. I’m here to tell you why these aren’t problems to get rid of but are actually part of how things work. I’ll explain why trying to make everyone equal isn’t possible and why that’s a good thing.
Show Notes:
[05:29]#1 As human beings have free will to make choices, there is no way we can end up with equal outcomes.
[10:46]#2 As free will human beings procreate, the inequality gaps can and naturally will grow wider.
[19:19]#3 Life stopped being fair when you graduated from kindergarten.

#3051: Social Media "Activism" Is Bulls***
Today, I'm breaking down why social media activism is just fake activism. You might care about the causes you post about, but if your activism stops at hitting “share” on your phone, it’s not making a real impact. I’m calling out the difference between online virtue signaling and genuine, on-the-ground action.
Show Notes:
[03:18]#1 True activism requires putting something on the line.
[12:56]#2 If you are not risking losing something again, you are not doing true activism.
[17:24]#3 Talk is cheap.

#3050: Why Dre Baldwin Is NOT Corporate [Part 3 of 3]
Let's pick up right where we left off. I’m laying it out straight—here’s why I avoid the corporate grind. I’d rather be honest and deal with the fallout than play the fake game and get caught up in office politics. I chose the independent route because in my world, honesty and real results matter more than fitting into a corporate mold.
Show Notes:
[02:37]#7 I would rather be honest and piss you off than lie to please you.
[09:03]#8 I cannot stomach seeing incompetent and fake people being rewarded for bullshit. I can't deal with it.
[17:13]#9 The educational system is designed to train you to succeed in the corporate world.

#3049: Why Dre Baldwin Is NOT Corporate [Part 2 of 3]
In this class, I’m diving into why I’m not built for the corporate world. If you’ve ever felt like you don’t fit into the “go along to get along” culture, you’ll get where I’m coming from. I break down how I’m wired differently, why I can't be fake, and why being my own boss is the only way that works for me.
Show Notes:
[02:56]#4 I lack the ability to go along to get along.
[10:06]#5 I cannot deal with people being fake, nor can I pretend to be fake.
[18:19]#6 I'm good at climbing ladders. I just don't want to.
