| 0:02.4 | You fall to your standards. |
| 0:04.4 | The ERI Execution Reliability Index measures your real standard based on what you actually execute, |
| 0:12.4 | not what you intend to execute. |
| 0:14.9 | If you want to close that gap, go to work on your game.com slash ERI. |

| 0:25.4 | Incomplete commitment leaves the door open to self-questioning. |
| 0:28.1 | This is how people start to lose confidence when you don't fully commit to what you're doing. |

| 0:35.8 | Work on your game. |
| 0:36.9 | Work on your game. Work on your game. Work on your game. Work on your game. This is Drey Baldwin. And work on your game is the system that turns discipline into dominance. Today's topic is regret comes from restraint, not loss. Failure, everybody, is concrete. It happened. Setson Stone is done. |
| 1:00.6 | And failure produces data, it also produces closure. The situation is over. It's finished. This is what happened. |
| 1:07.6 | Regret, on the other hand, is something that lingers because your commitment |
| 1:12.2 | was withheld. You restrained from committing and you did so before the outcome was decided |
| 1:19.3 | necessarily, and that's where the regret comes from. When I think about it myself in my life, |
| 1:24.5 | anything that I regret, it's often something, actually it's always something that |
| 1:29.2 | was not completed, something that was not finished. I've had things in my life that are failures, |
| 1:35.7 | losses, defeats, things that were completed and did not go the way that I wanted them to go |
| 1:40.9 | or were expected to go or someone else wanted them to go. For example, |
| 1:45.4 | losing games and sports, getting fired from jobs. Some of them I was okay getting fired with, |
| 1:50.5 | but there was closure. The whole point is there was closure. It was completed. You approach a |
| 1:54.7 | girl and try to talk to her and she's not interested and or blows you off and or there's some type of communication or informational exchange, but then nothing comes from it because maybe she never wanted to in the first place and she was just getting rid of whatever situation. But there's finality here. This happened. It closed. It's done. Okay. That's the outcome. Those I'm fine with. I'm fine with anything that doesn't go the way I wanted to go, but the commitment was there, the action was taken, I'm good. Regret is all the things that could have happened, could have been done, could have been engaged in, but didn't do it. There's a girl over there. She looks interested, but you talk yourself out of it, hesitate and miss the opportunity, then you never talk to the girl. Now she's gone. You had an opportunity to go get that job or that business opportunity that was dangled in front of you. You took too long to make a decision, decided not to take the action, ended up not doing it five, 10 years already looking back like, damn, I should have did that. Something that you could have been engaged in, something you could have got involved in. For whatever reason you didn't get involved, |
