From Pro Athlete To Entrepreneur: Dre's Journey and Success As An Author, and Mindset Coach. Dre Baldwin has been an athlete since he was old enough to play outside. From football to baseball to track to basketball, Dre was was always physically active and super-competitive. Even at his young age, Dre sought to compete, challenge and test both himself and his opponents in every sport, in constant search for a mental edge.
Finally settling on basketball at the age of 14, Dre tried and failed to make his high school varsity basketball team for 3 years, finally making the team as a senior... only to sit on the bench for nearly the entire season.
Dre "walked on" to play basketball in college at the NCAA Division 3 level, where he finished his college years not even on the basketball team after a coaching change left Dre on the outside looking in – again. For most athletes, that would be the end of the line...
Driven by his internal competitive fire, Dre was determined to take his career to professional level. Using his marketing & self-promotion talents, he hustled his way to a first contract in 2005.
Dre enjoyed a 9-year professional basketball career that took him through 8 countries in all, including Lithuania, Montenegro, Germany, Mexico, Croatia and Slovakia.
In 2014, Dre wrote The Overseas Basketball Blueprint, the first and only reference guide for playing professional basketball abroad. To date, thousands of players have learned about the pro game and what steps to take to create their own careers through Dre's books and content
He is now a full-time entrepreneur who has authored 33 books and performed 4 TEDxTalks on Discipline, Confidence, Mental Toughness & Personal Initiative. Dre has over 142,000 subscribers on YouTube, and his daily solo Work On Your Game podcast has been downloaded over 6.5 million times.
