    #3374: Earned In Private, Felt In Public

    In this episode, I talk about how all real success is earned in private before it ever gets seen or celebrated in public. A lot of the work that leads to big results happens behind the scenes, with no applause and no spotlight. I’m reminding you that no matter how much tech we get or how fast the world moves, the process of success never changes. You still gotta respect the grind. The shine only comes after the sweat. Show Notes:  [01:37]#1 If it's not yet working for you, that means it is currently working on you.  [07:48]#2 Despite all of our technological advances, there is still no shortcut to doing the fucking work.  [16:22]#3 You don't get to skip the seasons.

    #3373: The Most Common Copes Of Mediocre People

    In this episode, I’m talking about the most common copes of mediocre people. I got the idea from a viral post showing a flashy Black rapper and a plain-dressed white entertainer sitting front row at a game. The post—and the reaction to it—revealed how folks justify mediocrity and avoid facing hard truths. Hopefully, none of these apply to you… but if they do, it’s time to ask why. Let’s break it down. Show Notes:  [01:44]#1 “Wealthy people don't display their wealth” cope. [09:06]#2 Physical- appearance cope. [17:50]#3 All people who have money are either dishonest, scamming, or you're doing some sort of grift.  [22:02]Recap Power Presence Protocol 🦁🔥 [Starts August 19 LIVE!!] 👉 http://www.WorkOnYourGameUniversity.com/Power  🎓 Work On Your Game University Get structured, get paid → WorkOnYourGameUniversity.com 📧 Dre’s Daily Emails (Free) Clarity.

    #3372: Master "The Job"

    In this episode, I'm talking about what it really means to master “the job”. Being a true professional isn’t about what outsiders see or think they understand. It’s about the stuff that happens behind the scenes, the deeper details that only people in the game really know. If you don’t get a handle on those things, you won’t last long in your profession. Today, I’m breaking down exactly what that mastery looks like.  Show Notes:  [01:24]#1 What's the job?  [11:27]#2 If you're going to be a professional, you better find out what the job is in any industry before you get into it.  [19:15]#3 Pick an industry in which you are okay with the job and you are willing to do that job on a consistent basis throughout the length of what you expect to be your career.

    #3371: Why Trashy Podcasts Are Trashy

    Today I’m breaking down why a lot of podcasts out there are just plain trash. I’ve been a guest on over 500 shows, I check out what people are doing, and I’ve seen a lot of garbage. These shows aren’t bad by accident; they're missing key stuff. If you’re listening to a trashy show, or you’re thinking about starting one, I’ll help you understand what’s wrong and how to fix it. And no, my show ain’t trash. I've been doing this every day since 2016, and I got the track record to prove it. Show Notes:  [04:06]]#1 There is no thought or structure behind it.  [08:55]#2 There are no takeaways of substance or any post show use for visitors.  [16:18]#3 There's no real work behind what they are doing.  [20:48]Recap Next Steps: Power Presence Protocol 🦁🔥 [Starts August 19 LIVE!!] 👉 http://www.WorkOnYourGameUniversity.com/Power  🎓 Work On Your Game University Get structured, get paid → WorkOnYourGameUniversity.com 📧 Dre’s Daily Emails (Free) Clarity.

    #3370: The Easiest - And Hardest - Situations To Win in

    Today I'm talking about the easiest and hardest situations to win in. Life is a performance-based game, and as professionals, we’re expected to show up and get the job done. But not every situation gives us the same odds of success. In this episode, I break it down into three main types of situations: some set you up to win easily, while others make it a lot harder. Once you understand how to spot them, you can adjust your approach and boost your chances of winning. Show Notes:  [01:20]#1 The impossible one is when you have no game, you can't win. [09:37]#2 Easiest way to win is when you're really good, but nobody knows who you are because there are no expectations.    [22:37]#3 The hardest way is when you're really good and everyone not only knows you, but they expect you to win.  [28:02]Recap Next Steps: Power Presence Protocol 🦁🔥 [Starts August 19 LIVE!!] 👉 http://www.WorkOnYourGameUniversity.com/Power  🎓 Work On Your Game University Get structured, get paid → WorkOnYourGameUniversity.com 📧 Dre’s Daily Emails (Free) Clarity.

    #3369: How To Avoid Sexual Assault Allegations

    Today’s topic is how to avoid ever getting hit with a sexual assault allegation. I’m placing a futures bet right now that it’ll never happen to me and in this episode, I break down how you can make sure it never happens to you either. Most of the time, it’s men with status whether that’s in a company, an industry, or the whole world who end up with these accusations. If you’re a man with power, money, or attention, even on a small scale, this episode is for you. I’m giving you the real game on how to protect yourself before anything even has a chance to happen.  Show Notes:  [03:00]#1 Show me the Carfax.  [08:42]#2 Land the plane safely.  [17:44]#3 Careful mixing sex with power.

    #3368: Would YOU Follow You?

    Today’s question is simple but real: would you follow you? If you’re trying to be a leader, this is something you’ve got to ask yourself. Based on how you show up, the energy you bring, and how you carry yourself are you someone you would trust to lead? In this episode, I give you some key questions to help you figure that out. Because if the answer isn’t a clear “hell yes,” then you’ve got some work to do. Show Notes:  [01:40]#1 Do you trust that having you as a leader would lead to success?  [07:45]#2 Can other people rest assured that because you are the leader, you will solve all the problems and fill all the gaps. [15:44]#3 Are you willing to assume leadership in a situation that does not have clear solutions or easy answers yet it has a ton of problems?

    #3367: How To "Bring It" When No One Else Has It

    Sometimes, you look around and nobody has any energy; nobody feels like showing up, practicing, or performing. I saw this a lot back when I played sports, and as the leader, I had to be the one to bring the energy anyway. In this episode, I talk about how to get yourself ready, mentally and physically, to show up strong even when nobody else does. Because no matter what team you're on, the group moves as the leader moves and that leader is you. Show Notes:  [02:18]#1 Power in leadership is ownership, responsibility, and accountability.  [17:16]#2 The essence of competition is you have to beat who's in front of you.  [21:41]#3 You are the support system for everybody else.
