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

This is part two of my series on trashing what people call hip hop culture. I’m talking about three big problems: spending money just to show off, women being sexualized (and even joining in on it), and how ignorance gets celebrated. I also get into how politicians use rappers to influence people and why parents need to pay attention to what their kids are learning. It’s not just about blaming the industry—it’s about taking responsibility at home. Let’s break it all down. Show Notes: [02:17]#4 Extreme financial consumption. [13:15]#5 Sexualization of young women.  [21:27]#6 General ignorance.  [29:07]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'm talking about getting more done. Most people I know want to be more productive and get things done faster or with less effort. The key is focusing on what really matters, so you can accomplish more and feel happier. If you're looking to get more done every day and move forward faster, this episode is for you. Show Notes: [02:53]#1 Pay attention to construction projects that you see anywhere that you go. [08:37]#2 When you have a full schedule of things, that must get done at specific times.  [13:47]#3 Busy people tend to get the most done.

In this masterclass, I’m picking up where I left off, sharing a list of people I actively listen to for news. This isn’t a complete list of everyone I think has a positive message, just the ones I tune into regularly. These are people with platforms like podcasts or YouTube channels, and I follow them because they break things down in a way that helps me understand what’s going on. There are definitely others who make good points, but I don’t listen to all of their stuff. This is just who I personally follow. Show Notes: [03:17]#4 Royce White.  [09:40]#5 Jason Whitlock.  [18:31]#6 Steve Bannon.  [25:50]#7 I'm asking for and sharing some suggestions that I've received so far.  [28:34]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’s masterclass, I’m sharing who I follow for current events—and why I put "news" in air quotes. Back in episode 1474, I told you to stop watching the mainstream news, and that advice still holds. The media isn’t even pretending to be objective anymore, and their attempts to compete with social media have made things worse. I prefer sources that are fair, logical, and objective—most of which lean conservative, though I don’t identify with any political side. Tune in to hear my go-to sources and why they stand out. Let’s get into it! Show Notes: [06:59]#1 X the app formerly known as Twitter.  [12:07]#2 Megyn Kelly Show.  [18:10]#3 Candace Owens.  [27:06]Recap Episodes mentioned: 1474: Stop Watching "The News"!

In this class, I’m giving you the four keys to being consistent. Consistency is a huge part of success, and if you’ve been following me for a while, you know it’s a big part of everything I do—even if I don’t always say it. If you’re not consistent, it’s probably because you’re missing one of these four keys. I’ll help you figure out what you need so you can finally lock in and stay consistent. Let’s get to work! Show Notes: [03:03]#1 You need a reason. [08:12]#2 You need structure.  [15:08]#3 Discipline.  [18:03]#4 You have to have a routine.

In this class, I’m telling you why you need to get mad about your situation—but only if you’re not happy with it. If things are good, stay good. But if something isn’t right, don’t just brush it off or rationalize it. Instead, use that anger as fuel to take action and fix it. I’ll explain why anger boosts performance (like I talked about in episode 678) and how to channel it into making real changes, fast. Let’s talk about turning frustration into progress! Show Notes: [03:41]#1 Anger narrows and sharpens focus. [11:52]#2 Sharpen focus means doing what you already know you should do, but you have been too apathetic to take action on.  [16:07]#3 Apathy is the worst position you can be in.

In this class, I’m talking about corporate greed vs. capitalism. I saw a post on X (you know, what we used to call Twitter) about Chipotle raising their prices, making big profits, giving their CEO a huge bonus, and saving money in stocks. People were calling it “corporate greed,” but it got me thinking—doesn’t that just sound like capitalism? Isn’t that what companies are supposed to do? I wanted to figure out why we call some companies greedy and others just good at business. After digging into it, I’ve got some thoughts to share. Let’s break it down together. Show Notes: [05:47]#1 The distinction between corporate greed and capitalism lies in intent, ethics and the broader impact of business practices. [15:47]#2 Every business is designed with the idea of creating value, exchanging that value for money. That’s the purpose of having a business. [23:50]#3 Corporate greed is about short term thinking, prioritizing immediate profits over long term sustainability or societal well being.  [31:07]Recap Episodes Mentioned 2605: The Satanic Attack On Language 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!

Let me tell you a story. A few years ago, I was in Miami, and someone asked me to do a street interview about social issues. The first question was whether it’s fair that billionaires don’t pay taxes like the rest of us. My answer? The whole question is wrong. If the system lets people legally pay less, why wouldn’t they? I wouldn’t pay more taxes if I didn’t have to, and neither would you. In this episode, I’ll break down why blaming the rich for using the rules to their advantage is a losing mindset. Let’s talk about it. Show Notes: [06:50]#1 If you believe the rich don't pay taxes, you should aim to become rich. [12:12]#2 This episode is not about taxes, richness, or money. It's about putting yourself in a frame of mind of being successful. [20:42]#3 'How can I get the advantage?' instead of complaining.

In today’s episode, I’m talking about how to claim your position. A couple of months ago, I did an episode on how to make yourself qualified (Episode 3121), and today, I’m building on that idea. I’m going to show you that claiming your position is the most important part of actually having it, and why you don’t need to rely on other people’s opinions of what qualifies you. Forget about climbing ladders or waiting for approval—let’s talk about how you can step into where you want to be, starting today. Show Notes: [04:00]#1 You are who you say you are.  [11:05]#2 People judge books by covers, so you better make sure your cover is professionally designed.

In this class, I’m talking about “The Middle-Class Curse” and why being in the middle class is the worst spot to be in mentally and energetically. A month ago, I did a four-part series (starting with episode 3143) about why the middle class is disappearing, focusing on the tangible and financial side. Today, I’m breaking down the mindset side—how being in the middle class affects your thoughts, actions, and results. Listen in, and I’ll explain why this position holds so many people back. Show Notes: [03:37]#1 At the lower class, you have to go help the family or help yourself because your situation is only going to get more fucked up if you do nothing.  [12:51]#2 If you're rich or wealthy, you're in the upper class, you have a duty to keep the dynasty going by your last name.  [21:39]#3 The middle class have it the worst because you have no internal ingrained drive to do anything different.  [28:57]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 3143: There Will Be No "Middle Class" [Part 1 of 4] 3144: There Will Be No "Middle Class" [Part 2 of 4] 3145: There Will Be No "Middle Class" [Part 3 of 4] 3146: There Will Be No "Middle Class" [Part 4 of 4] 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!
