#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.

#3048: Why Dre Baldwin Is NOT Corporate [Part 1 of 3]
In this class, I’m breaking down why I can’t work in the corporate world full-time. Just like I talked about in episode 1667, where I explained why politics isn’t for me, the reasons are pretty much the same. Today, I’ll share why I wouldn’t make it in the corporate space either.
Show Notes:
[03:23]#1 I am very good at following rules and processes. I simply just don't want to.
[11:27]#2 I say too many things that are complete nonsense that I cannot hold my tongue about and not say something.
[22:25]#3 I refuse to have bosses. I just don't want anybody telling me what to do.

#3045: Always Be The Buyer
Today, we're talking about the power of being the buyer in life. This idea, inspired by Dan Sullivan, is all about making choices that get you what you want instead of waiting to be picked. I'll break down how you can use this mindset to start taking control and choosing what really matters to you.
Show Notes:
[05:12]#1 Buyers get to choose what they want while sellers are looking for someone to buy at the highest level of any game.
[15:52]#2 Position yourself to make decisions, not being the one having a decision made about you.
[25:29]#3 You can sell things with the mindset of a buyer.

#3044: Humans Are Highly Trainable
In today’s class, we're talking about how humans are super trainable. I just did a sales training in Miami, and it got me thinking about how important it is to manage people, whether in business or in life. Remember, life is a business, and it all starts with how you handle yourself.
Show Notes:
[06:11]#1 We are used to following rules.
[14:19]#2 When there are no rules, you make our own rules, or we live in chaos.
[21:00]#3 When you give people rules, you enforce them and you remind people of the rules and you are consistent, people will comply.

#3043: Less Information, More Stories
Today, we’re talking about why just getting more information doesn’t always fix things when you’re stuck. A lot of folks think that if they only had the right info, they'd get the results they want, but that’s not usually the real problem. Instead, it’s about changing your perspective and using stories—either to get your point across or to rethink your own situation—that makes the biggest difference.
Show Notes:
[04:56]#1 Information gets easily forgotten and is being quickly democratized.
[15:09]#2 Stories get remembered and are more proprietary.
[24:58]#3 There are very few truly ambitious people who can be satisfied with information alone.
