| 0:00.0 | See, the reason why the person who's the rank-in-file staff member can clock out at 5 p.m. |
| 0:05.2 | and not think about work again until 9 a.m. the next workday is because the leader is thinking about the job the entire time to make it as easy as possible for the rank-and-file people to only have to think about it from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. |
| 0:18.2 | Work on your game. Work on your game. Work on your game. Work on your game. This is Drey Olaid.com. Work on your game. |
| 0:21.1 | Work on your game. |
| 0:22.1 | Work on your game. |
| 0:23.8 | This is Drey Baldwin, and Work on your game is the system that turns discipline |
| 0:27.7 | into dominance. |
| 0:29.5 | Today's topic is, would you follow you? |
| 0:34.5 | It's a good question. |
| 0:36.4 | And being that, we've been talking about leadership in the last couple |
| 0:40.5 | episodes of this show. This is a question that you need to ask yourself when it comes to whether you are |
| 0:46.1 | a fit for a leadership position. Because if you want other people to follow you, then we should |
| 0:51.6 | start with a person in the mirror and ask yourself just based on the way you show up, based on energy that you bring every day, based on who you see follow you, then we should start with a person in the mirror and ask yourself, just based on a way you show up, based on an energy that you bring every day, based on who you see when you look in the mirror, would you follow yourself as a leader? Would you even want to get behind yourself and say, okay, this is a person I can get behind, this person I can follow, this is a person who I can model what I'm doing after them. Do you even fit your own description? |
| 1:13.5 | And that's a question you should ask yourself. And the good news is I'm going to give you some |
| 1:17.1 | questions here today that you can ask yourself to go even deeper than what I just said and that |

Or if the answer is anything other than yes, remember what we talked about is either hell yes or it's no, and that means you need to make some adjustments or you just shouldn't be leading anyway. But this is up for you to decide. I'm going to ask you the questions. You're going to provide the answers. Let's get into it. Point number one, today's topic once again is would you follow you? Number one, do you trust that having you as a leader would lead to success? Do you trust that having you as a leader would lead to success? Just yesterday, the episode where I took to task, a former NBA player by the name of Tracy McGrady, who made some |
| 2:01.8 | ridiculous statements. If he had been on the same team with certain other players who played |
| 2:07.0 | at the same time as he, that he would have been a more successful player and had a more |
| 2:12.1 | successful career. And he posed the ridiculous question of, is it my fault being sarcastic, that he did not achieve |
| 2:19.9 | certain levels of results? And for Tracy McGregor, the answer to this first question is a resounding |
| 2:26.0 | no. No. He does not trust that having him as a leader leads to success because he was a leader. |
