Speaker 1: I See's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2: What's up to SIS? Team? You're listening to?
Speaker 1: The Daily Game a compilation of motivational quotes I've collected
Speaker 1: over the years that I've found inspiring and helped me
Speaker 1: through the game of life.
Speaker 2: This quote is about who you surround yourself with.
Speaker 1: If you're the smartest person in the room, you're in
Speaker 1: the wrong room.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: I can say this in a lot of different ways,
Speaker 1: but I tell my friends a lot of times, like
Speaker 1: when I go out, you know, it's one thing that's
Speaker 1: to be out socially, But if I'm out for business
Speaker 1: and I'm in a business situation, I want to be
Speaker 1: the brokest person in the room because that's the only
Speaker 1: way I can come up. I can only come up
Speaker 1: being around people that are balling harder than me. Then
Speaker 1: there may be opportunities for me. If I'm the most
Speaker 1: wealthy person in the room, then everyone's looking at me
Speaker 1: for help. That might be the night of philanthropy. That
Speaker 1: might be by night where I'm literally looking to look
Speaker 1: out for people. But if I'm trying to come up,
Speaker 1: I need to be the smaller person in the room.
Speaker 1: So the bigger fish can give me a ride in
Speaker 1: the stanmy. So that being said, if I'm the smartest
Speaker 1: person in the room, how am I going to learn anything? Now,
Speaker 1: let's flip this on his head. When I walk into
Speaker 1: a business meeting, I feel that I'm the smartest person
Speaker 1: in the room till I'm proved otherwise. So, in other words,
Speaker 1: I don't walk in there with my head between my
Speaker 1: legs like I'm the dummy. I know I'm on my shit,
Speaker 1: but now I'm listening to find out who is above
Speaker 1: my game, and I'm like, okay, he's sharp. Pay attention
Speaker 1: to him. She's sharp. Okay, this guy, I'm smarter than him.
Speaker 1: So I walk in there mentally like I'm not the
Speaker 1: dummy in the room. So I come in there as
Speaker 1: if I'm the smartest until proved otherwise, and then I
Speaker 1: now play my position in this game that's going on.
Speaker 1: You should never shut your own intelligence down. You should
Speaker 1: always keep it at top shelf. But you always walk
Speaker 1: in thinking, okay, why am I here? Are these people
Speaker 1: up on game that I'm not on game? And is
Speaker 1: this going to be beneficial to me? This is a
Speaker 1: very difficult one because it's kind of like how you
Speaker 1: play the game. But just know that if you do
Speaker 1: decide you're in a room and you're the smartest person,
Speaker 1: then there's not much you're going to gain out of
Speaker 1: that room or conversation wise with anybody. Like saying music,
Speaker 1: if I'm in a room rapping with only rappers I'm
Speaker 1: better than, I'm not gonna get better. But if I'm
Speaker 1: in there with people that can rap better than me,
Speaker 1: or bars are heavy, I'm gonna up my game. My
Speaker 1: game is gonna get better because now I'm listening to
Speaker 1: all these cats and I'm like, damn, i gotta step
Speaker 1: my game up. So it's always good to surround yourself
Speaker 1: with people that are a little bit better than you.
Speaker 1: It helps you excel and it helps you step your
Speaker 1: game up that next level. When I was in the military,
Speaker 1: they said the generals set with generals because they talk
Speaker 1: on a certain level. You have to kind of get
Speaker 1: in a room full of bosses so you could talk
Speaker 1: boss shit.
Speaker 2: One of the other quotes I read the other day
Speaker 2: is you.
Speaker 1: Can't talk winning with losers because they speak a different language.
Speaker 1: This has been another ice code fact from me. Iced
Speaker 1: team listening again tomorrow when I drop some wisdom on
Speaker 1: your ass till then. Stay safe, stay smart, and stay knowing.
Speaker 1: The only way to get better is to surround yourself
Speaker 1: with people that are better than you.
