The Root of All Success with The Real Jason Duncan

In this episode of The Root of All Success hosted by The Real Jason Duncan, guest Dre Baldwin, CEO and Founder of Work On Your Game Inc., shares powerful insights on why hard work alone isn’t the key to success. Baldwin, a former pro athlete and accomplished author of 33 books, delves into the importance of directing hard work with intention, comparing hard work to an ingredient in a sandwich—necessary, but not sufficient on its own. Drawing from his experiences as a TEDx speaker, author, and basketball player who turned a benchwarmer position in high school into a 9-year professional career, Baldwin emphasizes that success comes not just from effort, but from aligning effort with clear purpose and strategy.Throughout the episode, Baldwin challenges common narratives of hustle culture and explains why a game-changing mindset—focusing on "being" before "doing"—is essential for long-term success. He breaks down how many people focus solely on working harder without considering whether their energy is properly channeled, often leading to frustration despite their efforts. Baldwin's wisdom, drawn from his own life story and career achievements, offers listeners a fresh perspective on what it truly takes to succeed.
