#3351: Why Most People Can't Be Trusted With Power

About this episode

In this episode, I’m talking about why most people can’t be trusted with power, not just power over others, but even power over their own lives. We all say we want control and influence, but the truth is, a lot of folks aren’t ready for it. Being powerful requires responsibility, discipline, and the ability to manage yourself, and most people just don’t have that. Today I’m breaking down why that is, and what it really takes to earn and handle power the right way. Show Notes:  [01:52]#1 Power is a magnifier.  [09:29]#2 One trade off of power is that for the price of having this influence, you are also responsible for the outcomes of those events even.  [20:03]#3 Power is not free.  [23:25]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 2174: There Are No Perfect Scenarios – Only Trade-Offs Next Steps: 🎓 Work On Your Game University Get structured, get paid → WorkOnYourGameUniversity.com 📧 Dre’s Daily Emails (Free) Clarity.
