Episode 190 of the Fit Father Project Podcast is all about mental toughness and how you can build a bulletproof mindset and achieve any goal you set. 

In this episode, you’ll meet Dre Baldwin, the CEO and founder of Work On Your Game Inc., which has helped countless entrepreneurs build their mindset, strategy, and systems. 

But his teachings can help you achieve anything and everything you put your mind to!

Dre shares his journey from being a professional basketball player to developing the Work on Your Game framework. The framework consists of four principles: discipline, confidence, mental toughness, and personal initiative

The first principle, discipline, is about showing up every day and following a structured plan. Confidence is built by borrowing confidence from others, such as envisioning the energy and mindset of a favorite athlete. 

Mental toughness is the ability to continue being disciplined and confident even when things don't go according to plan. It serves as a security guard for discipline and confidence, helping you achieve high levels of success. 

This conversation explores different ways to become mentally tough, including having a strong work ethic and maintaining a positive mindset. It also highlights the role of faith in mental toughness and the importance of taking personal initiative. 

Dre also shares his daily routine and self-care practices, emphasizing the importance of fitness and productivity, and he and Dr. A touch on the impact of technology on mental toughness and the importance of being aware of how social media platforms monetize users' time and attention.

Key Takeaways:

  • Regular check-ins and resets are important for maintaining personal initiative and staying focused on goals. 
  • Applying principles of mental toughness to parenting involves instilling values of personal development and personal finance in children. 
  • Technology can be both a tool and a stumbling block for mental toughness, and it's important to be intentional about how it is used. 
  • A daily routine with self-care practices, such as exercise and meditation, can contribute to mental toughness. 
  • Incorporating fitness into daily routines can enhance mental toughness and overall well-being.
