Speaker 1: I See's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's
Speaker 1: up in Size Tea? You're listening to The Daily Game,
Speaker 1: a compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years
Speaker 1: that I found inspiring and helped me through the game
Speaker 1: of life. Today's quote comes from Epictetus. He was one
Speaker 1: of the most prolific thinkers of his time and made
Speaker 1: a name for himself an ancient philosophy. He believed that
Speaker 1: only one thing truly belongs to an individual fully, and
Speaker 1: that's will and purpose. He said, no great thing is
Speaker 1: created suddenly. Now let's think of what's great. A baby, Well,
Speaker 1: it's not technically created suddenly. It starts suddenly, but it
Speaker 1: probably put in a lot of work. Then the mother
Speaker 1: has to carry it for nine months and outcomes something great.
Speaker 1: As we go, something can happened that's great in our lives,
Speaker 1: but it's usually based on what we've done up to
Speaker 1: that point to be able to achieve the greatness. I
Speaker 1: look at my daughter's paintings, and to me, that's greatness.
Speaker 1: But she worked hard to do that. She just didn't
Speaker 1: throw any paint on the paper and it was great.
Speaker 1: She knows that's mess. But when she actually takes that
Speaker 1: pen and she tries to draw, and even though the
Speaker 1: characters might not look like people yet, but she says
Speaker 1: they're people. She worked hard on that. So nothing great
Speaker 1: happened suddenly. It requires work and it requires a person
Speaker 1: really to put.
Speaker 2: Everything they have into it.
Speaker 1: And with my daughter, that's all she can give, that's
Speaker 1: all she has at this point. So hey, at one point,
Speaker 1: maybe I made a great song and it only took
Speaker 1: me ten minutes, But it took me thirty forty years
Speaker 1: of practice to be able to achieve something in ten minutes,
Speaker 1: so it wasn't sudden. It's like that overnight success that
Speaker 1: took you thirty years to achieve.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you the truth.
Speaker 1: I just believe that hard work will get recognized and
Speaker 1: greatness can be achieved with time. This has been another
Speaker 1: ice cold fact from me, iced Tea. Listening again tomorrow
Speaker 1: when I drop some wisdom on your ass till then,
Speaker 1: stay safe, stay smart, and stay knowing success can and
Speaker 1: will be achieved, but it does not happen overnight.
