On The First Day... You feel great.
New gym clothes, new sneakers, a new trainer, a 20-session pack of boot camp classes… new everything! The workout is tough. You’re out of shape. But it’s fun to be back and doing something for your health. You drag yourself to the bathroom mirror afterward and enthusiastically say, “I’m DOING this!”
The Second Day... There’s soreness in body parts that you didn't know could be sore.
Your body is reminding you how long it’s been since it worked this hard. The second-day workout kicks your butt. Combined with the Day One fatigue, it’s even harder. But you push through it, and you’re still excited about this new experience. It’s only the second day, after all. You drag yourself home afterward, and say to yourself (with just a bit less enthusiasm), “I’m DOING this!”
The Third Day... things are… different.
You snooze your alarm a time or two. Your workout sneakers feel like they're made of cement. At the gym, you barely acknowledge the happy, bubbly front desk attendant. You don’t want to hear your trainer’s mouth. Your body and mind are not feeling this discipline thing right now. You seriously consider quitting this whole getting-in-shape scheme.
Your discipline (or lack thereof), is saying (loudly), 'allow me to reintroduce myself!'
***
The Third Day isn’t confined to the gym or to sports. It’s any situation where you know there’s work ahead of you, and you question if you’re willing to be fully present and do that work.
The Third Day is any situation in which you don’t quite feel like it and aren’t so excited to work — but there is work to be done. And YOU are responsible for getting it done. The Third Day is the decision that you make at that moment.
The question this book answers: HOW do you bring yourself to give and produce your best when you least feel like it?
Your answer determines whether you'll be a pro or an amateur – regardless of your job title.
Just want to let you know that I appreciate the positivity you bring to the universe man. You always have something to say that builds people up. It's great thing. - Horace BuddooWhen I was a child, there were these color-by-numbers coloring books we would play with. Each page would have a picture of, say, a bear. And the bear would have different areas of its body marked by a number. There was a little box in the corner of the page that told you which colors referred to each number. So if the number "1" was green, you colored all the corresponding 1s on the page in green. Then you did the same with black, red, yellow and the rest. After coloring in all the numbered sections, you'd have a perfectly colored picture to admire. There was no thinking or real-life application necessary. Just do what the damn book said, step by step, and everything would be perfect. The Super You is not a coloring book. My goals in writing this book are to:1) Give you insight into the phenomenon of confidence by explaining what it is, where it comes from, when you can use it to your advantage, and how it is developed, strengthened and weakened. 2) Prepare you to apply what you read in real life, learning instinctively when to use each tool in your box, since no two situations are ever exactly the same.3) Leave you with The Super You, the version of you who has the confidence to think and say and do all of the things you've considered but haven't dared trying. That's what this book is.
Salespeople run this planet.
Selling is the oldest and highest-paying profession in existence. Sellers control their results, have no limit on how much they can prosper, get paid for what they produce, and can generally get their way in life. Sounds like a great gig.
So why are so many people averse to selling?
'I don't like sales.'
'I like to know how much money I'm making.'
'I don't want to be one of those people who are selling all the time!'
These mindsets have been taught, adopted, and ingrained into many minds. The minds of people who have less control over their lives than they should have. People whose limits are created for them, without their input. People whose success is subject to someone else's feelings or opinions.
All because they've been taught wrong (or not taught at all).
That's where The Seller's Mindset comes in.
This book is about the mindset of selling - not only for business, but for life itself. You will use what you learn here to earn commissions, build your own businesses, win debate team competitions, barber shop arguments, settle on favorable terms in negotiations, and generally get your way, period.
If you are already sold on sales, this book is your gas station to refuel that motivation to go get it.
If you afraid of selling (and if you don't like sales - it's because you're afraid), this book is the light chasing out the darkness of ignorance someone unfairly put on you.
Salespeople run this planet. Why are you still walking?
Since I started my website DreAllDay.com, along with all the YouTube videos, I have received many requests from players on playing pro basketball. And since the NBA has only so many positions, most of you know that overseas ball is a stronger possibility for you to continue your playing career, and it is: the NBA has 450 job positions while there are 10,000 players employed internationally (which includes Canada and Central and South America, which technically do not require going 'over a sea' to get to, in case you cared).
Over the years I have compiled several guides and tips for players on how to get their careers started, what to expect on the way and once they are in the door, and how to handle themselves with the on- and off-court situations that come with it. Every guide comes from questions that players frequently ask me.
This guidebook is a compilation of all of those guides and tips in one place for your quick and easy reference. It should be noted that several, though not all, of the chapters of this book are based on the posts on the Guides & Tips page of my website, edited and updated for this guidebook.
If you take only one thing from this guidebook, know that professional basketball is a buyer's market: There are more candidates than there are jobs, so the people who do the hiring - the teams themselves - have the power. What this means for you is you need to make yourself stand out.
Dre Baldwin shares motivational principles that will have you looking in the mirror and finding the drive from within. You will solidify the frame of mind you need, to be, do, and have what you want in your life.
The Mental Handbook is an award-winning book. But I realize the book itself wasn't enough. I realize it's not enough to simply tell you how to build mental toughness, confidence, and discipline.
I know my daily Work On Your Game Podcast, though the best in its category and a giant step in the right direction, isn't going to permanently change you by itself. I know for a fact that changing your life from the inside-out, starting with your mindset and how you see yourself, isn't a second-person job.
No matter how much I talk to you, inspire, and motivate you, nothing I say to you will have a much impact on your life as what you say to you. Which is why I created The Mental Workbook. Setting goals and working hard are requirements for achievement. Many people falsely believe that's all there is to it. If that's all it takes, why are so few people successful? There's more - much more - to you reaching all your goals than just having them and working every day.
The good news is, I know the exact formula for creating anything you want in life. I explain in detail how and why it works. I talk you through each step of the program. And, most importantly, I put you in position to do it yourself instead of just hearing about it. This is the exact program I follow myself, still to this day. I guarantee that it works. And I demand that you follow it. It's called The Mental Workbook. Let's start now.
'The mental is to the physical as three is to one.' - Napoleon Bonaparte
The mental game is everything. How you approach your life mentally - your attitude - will have more impact on your success than your physical tools and abilities. In life, there are many people on both sides of the achievement spectrum: Those who perform well above their means, and those who achieve well below what their 'tools' would suggest. How each of these people approaches the game of life, mentally, is the reason for each success or failure. What I am going to do with this book is touch on all the issues that our minds combat in any competitive space, which is pretty much all of life, every day. From family doubting your ambitions, to choking on the big stage, to feelings of fear, to obtaining and maintaining confidence, to trash talk, and everything in between.
Oftentimes, ego and results are not the same. In this class, you’ll learn why you need to value your overall success over pleasing your individual ego. Whatever produces the result is what you should be doing.
Being offended has now become a sport nowadays. If people are offended by something that you said or did, so what?
In this class, we’re going to talk about why you not being so antsy about the fact that people disagree with you yet you don’t even know why they’re offended by it.
