1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,480 Speaker 1: I See's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's 2 00:00:04,519 --> 00:00:07,680 Speaker 1: up in Size Tea? You're listening to The Daily Game, 3 00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:11,920 Speaker 1: a compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years 4 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:16,000 Speaker 1: that I found inspiring and helped me through the game 5 00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:21,920 Speaker 1: of life. Today's quote comes from Epictetus. He was one 6 00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:24,960 Speaker 1: of the most prolific thinkers of his time and made 7 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,880 Speaker 1: a name for himself an ancient philosophy. He believed that 8 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:33,199 Speaker 1: only one thing truly belongs to an individual fully, and 9 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:38,440 Speaker 1: that's will and purpose. He said, no great thing is 10 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 1: created suddenly. Now let's think of what's great. A baby, Well, 11 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 1: it's not technically created suddenly. It starts suddenly, but it 12 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 1: probably put in a lot of work. Then the mother 13 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: has to carry it for nine months and outcomes something great. 14 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 1: As we go, something can happened that's great in our lives, 15 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:06,400 Speaker 1: but it's usually based on what we've done up to 16 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:12,039 Speaker 1: that point to be able to achieve the greatness. I 17 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:16,680 Speaker 1: look at my daughter's paintings, and to me, that's greatness. 18 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 1: But she worked hard to do that. She just didn't 19 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 1: throw any paint on the paper and it was great. 20 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,960 Speaker 1: She knows that's mess. But when she actually takes that 21 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 1: pen and she tries to draw, and even though the 22 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 1: characters might not look like people yet, but she says 23 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 1: they're people. She worked hard on that. So nothing great 24 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 1: happened suddenly. It requires work and it requires a person 25 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:43,400 Speaker 1: really to put. 26 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 2: Everything they have into it. 27 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: And with my daughter, that's all she can give, that's 28 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: all she has at this point. So hey, at one point, 29 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 1: maybe I made a great song and it only took 30 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: me ten minutes, But it took me thirty forty years 31 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: of practice to be able to achieve something in ten minutes, 32 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 1: so it wasn't sudden. It's like that overnight success that 33 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 1: took you thirty years to achieve. 34 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you the truth. 35 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 1: I just believe that hard work will get recognized and 36 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: greatness can be achieved with time. This has been another 37 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: ice cold fact from me, iced Tea. Listening again tomorrow 38 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: when I drop some wisdom on your ass till then, 39 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: stay safe, stay smart, and stay knowing success can and 40 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,959 Speaker 1: will be achieved, but it does not happen overnight. 41 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:41,799 Speaker 2: Icey's Daily Game. 42 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: It's a production of iHeartRadio, Final Level of Entertainment and 43 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: Oddity an asylum Entertainment company.
