Speaker 1: I See's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's
Speaker 1: up to Sizes Tea. You're listening to The Daily Game,
Speaker 1: the compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years
Speaker 1: that I've found inspiring and helped me through the game
Speaker 1: of life. Today's quote comes from a decorated scientist and astronomer,
Speaker 1: Carl Sagan. Carl says it pays to keep an open mind,
Speaker 1: but not so open your brains fall out. I understand
Speaker 1: this quote because there's so many people that are out
Speaker 1: there that are so open minded that they let every
Speaker 1: type of conspiracy theory or everything jump into their mind.
Speaker 1: And as soon as you tell them, nah, that's bullshit,
Speaker 1: they're like, oh, well, you're not keeping your mind open.
Speaker 1: I mean, even dealing with Coco, my wife, she's the
Speaker 1: most open minded individual on earth. That's an overstatement, but
Speaker 1: she is, and she just believes every thing. You know,
Speaker 1: I'm not in the ghosts. She's like, oh, you got
Speaker 1: to keep your mind open. I told her. I said, look,
Speaker 1: I ain't never had a paranormal experience. Here's the deal.
Speaker 1: If you see a ghost, pointed out to me, if
Speaker 1: I see the motherfucker too, follow my lead, and I'll
Speaker 1: show you the fastest root out of this house. Goddamn it,
Speaker 1: you dig. But I'm skeptic when it comes to certain
Speaker 1: things because I haven't experienced it. I haven't been abducted
Speaker 1: by aliens. Okay, I've watched a lot of shows where
Speaker 1: a lot of people have. I can't sit up and
Speaker 1: call them liars. I can't say the delusion, know, I
Speaker 1: can't say that it all happened in their brain. There's
Speaker 1: enough of them they might have been abducted. So keeping
Speaker 1: an open mind is cool, but not so open that
Speaker 1: every idea that anybody puts in you you feel you
Speaker 1: have to just acknowledge that, use your own intelligence so
Speaker 1: that you know when you're dealing with a quack or
Speaker 1: you're dealing with somebody because they're people that will work
Speaker 1: on open minded individuals and take advantage of them. So
Speaker 1: have an open mind, but also have enough sense to
Speaker 1: call bullshit when you feel it. And I hate people
Speaker 1: to call bullshit on everything. No, those are closed minded individuals.
Speaker 1: So let's go back to what Carl Sagan says. It
Speaker 1: pays to keep an open mind. It's good to have
Speaker 1: an open mind, but not so open that your fucking
Speaker 1: brain falls out, and now you're just taking in every
Speaker 1: bit of information from everybody, and it's all possibly true.
Speaker 1: I'm open minded about religion enough to where I don't
Speaker 1: adhere to a religion because I don't know who's telling
Speaker 1: the truth and I don't want to get into heaven
Speaker 1: or wherever. And there's a hot day Krishna, dude sitting
Speaker 1: there saying memor me at that airport, motherfucker. You know,
Speaker 1: So I can't pick one because all of them adamant
Speaker 1: believe lead they're the right one. So for me to
Speaker 1: pick one, I am dissing another one and I'm smart
Speaker 1: enough not to play that game. So I just try
Speaker 1: to live righteous and do the right thing, because I
Speaker 1: think that's the basis of all religions. Do the right thing,
Speaker 1: be a good person, and I'll get into wherever the
Speaker 1: fuck I'm supposed to get into, if there is some
Speaker 1: fucking place. This has been another ice cold fact from me.
Speaker 1: Iced team listening again tomorrow when I drop some wisdom
Speaker 1: on your ass. Till then, stay safe, stay smart, and
Speaker 1: stay knowing that having an open mind can change your
Speaker 1: life for the better and sometimes for the worse. Ices
