Summary

In this class, I’m talking about “The Middle-Class Curse” and why being in the middle class is the worst spot to be in mentally and energetically. A month ago, I did a four-part series (starting with episode 3143) about why the middle class is disappearing, focusing on the tangible and financial side. Today, I’m breaking down the mindset side—how being in the middle class affects your thoughts, actions, and results. Listen in, and I’ll explain why this position holds so many people back. Show Notes: [03:37]#1 At the lower class, you have to go help the family or help yourself because your situation is only going to get more fucked up if you do nothing.  [12:51]#2 If you're rich or wealthy, you're in the upper class, you have a duty to keep the dynasty going by your last name.  [21:39]#3 The middle class have it the worst because you have no internal ingrained drive to do anything different.  [28:57]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 3143: There Will Be No "Middle Class" [Part 1 of 4] 3144: There Will Be No "Middle Class" [Part 2 of 4] 3145: There Will Be No "Middle Class" [Part 3 of 4] 3146: There Will Be No "Middle Class" [Part 4 of 4] Next Steps: Text Dre Baldwin: Text Dre at 1.305.384.6894 (or go to http://www.DreAllDay.com/Text) Work On Your Game University: http://www.WorkOnYourGameUniversity.com  Sponsor: AG1 by Athletic Greens: http://drinkAG1.com/WORKONYOURGAME  Get Dre’s Emails FREE:  Http://WorkOnMyGame.com  Free Audiobooks:  The Third Day: http://www.ThirdDayBook.com/audible The Mirror Of Motivation: http://www.MirrorOfMotivation.com/audible Get The Free Books: The Third Day: http://ThirdDayBook.com  The Mirror Of Motivation: http://MirrorOfMotivation.com The Overseas Basketball Blueprint: http://BallOverseas.com  Basketball: How To Play As Well As You Practice: http://HoopHandbook.com/Free  Donate:  CashApp: http://Cash.app/$DreBaldwin  PayPal: http://PayPal.me/DreAllDay  Be sure to Subscribe to have each new episode sent directly to you daily!
