WEBVTT - The Way Things Are

0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:04.560
<v Speaker 1>I See's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's

0:00:04.640 --> 0:00:08.319
<v Speaker 1>Up Sise team. You're listening to The Daily Game the

0:00:08.440 --> 0:00:12.440
<v Speaker 1>compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that

0:00:12.520 --> 0:00:17.000
<v Speaker 1>I've found inspiring and helped me through the game of life.

0:00:18.600 --> 0:00:22.440
<v Speaker 1>Today's quote is something to help keep you focused and motivated.

0:00:23.760 --> 0:00:28.520
<v Speaker 1>When you can't control what's happening, challenge yourself to control

0:00:28.600 --> 0:00:32.159
<v Speaker 1>the way you respond to what's happening. That's where the

0:00:32.240 --> 0:00:39.640
<v Speaker 1>power is. So when you can't control things, like certain things,

0:00:39.680 --> 0:00:41.280
<v Speaker 1>you're going to say, there's no way out of this.

0:00:41.400 --> 0:00:44.599
<v Speaker 1>I cannot control it. You just have to accept it.

0:00:45.479 --> 0:00:50.000
<v Speaker 1>You're wasting your time complaining about how things should be.

0:00:50.680 --> 0:00:53.720
<v Speaker 1>You know. It's like a lot of people spend all

0:00:53.760 --> 0:00:56.560
<v Speaker 1>their time saying, Oh, this is how it should be.

0:00:57.640 --> 0:01:00.920
<v Speaker 1>Stop wasting your time with that. Maybe you might be

0:01:00.920 --> 0:01:03.160
<v Speaker 1>able to nudge the needle the way it should be,

0:01:03.880 --> 0:01:07.119
<v Speaker 1>but right now you have to deal with how they are,

0:01:08.360 --> 0:01:12.760
<v Speaker 1>and the way things are might just be fucked up,

0:01:13.360 --> 0:01:18.119
<v Speaker 1>but that's reality. Now. How you deal with that reality

0:01:18.640 --> 0:01:23.160
<v Speaker 1>is your power. You know, Hey, I got across the

0:01:23.240 --> 0:01:27.280
<v Speaker 1>George Washington Bridge every day. The fucking toll When I

0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:30.480
<v Speaker 1>first came out here, was like ten dollars. Now it's fifteen.

0:01:30.520 --> 0:01:35.400
<v Speaker 1>It'll soon be twenty. I can't change that. I fucking

0:01:35.680 --> 0:01:40.200
<v Speaker 1>cannot change that. So that's something I can't change now.

0:01:40.240 --> 0:01:42.520
<v Speaker 1>How to fuck I'm a deal with it. I'm gona

0:01:42.520 --> 0:01:47.440
<v Speaker 1>have to pay that shit. How do I look at it? Well,

0:01:47.680 --> 0:01:50.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm paying twenty dollars to go to work where I'm

0:01:50.720 --> 0:01:54.000
<v Speaker 1>making a lot more than twenty dollars, So this taxing

0:01:54.080 --> 0:01:55.920
<v Speaker 1>me on the way to work. I ain't got no

0:01:56.000 --> 0:01:58.520
<v Speaker 1>time to bitch about it. It's just what it is.

0:01:59.000 --> 0:02:01.280
<v Speaker 1>Do I have time to go into the city council

0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:05.320
<v Speaker 1>and fight this politically to bring it? Is it even

0:02:05.400 --> 0:02:08.400
<v Speaker 1>worth it? Or is it just what's gonna happen. So

0:02:08.560 --> 0:02:13.560
<v Speaker 1>dealing with certain things, the sooner you accept them as

0:02:13.960 --> 0:02:17.200
<v Speaker 1>that's just how it is, and figure out how to

0:02:17.760 --> 0:02:20.200
<v Speaker 1>mentally wrap your brain around it and deal with it

0:02:20.240 --> 0:02:24.000
<v Speaker 1>without totally spazing out, the better, Because if you're just

0:02:24.040 --> 0:02:26.720
<v Speaker 1>going to sit back and just complain about it, shouldn't

0:02:26.720 --> 0:02:29.200
<v Speaker 1>be like this. It shouldn't be like this, you're going

0:02:29.280 --> 0:02:32.880
<v Speaker 1>to be upset forever. Now. There's certain things, there's certain

0:02:32.919 --> 0:02:37.440
<v Speaker 1>things politically that people have done. I mean, they're doing

0:02:37.520 --> 0:02:40.320
<v Speaker 1>all these different things in Congress, and they're changing laws.

0:02:40.639 --> 0:02:43.400
<v Speaker 1>Those are things where you can fight back. You don't

0:02:43.440 --> 0:02:47.200
<v Speaker 1>have to accept that people can get together, join together,

0:02:47.720 --> 0:02:51.960
<v Speaker 1>vote rally and put political pressure on certain things to

0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:55.640
<v Speaker 1>make changes. That's not what I'm talking about. Don't just

0:02:55.720 --> 0:02:59.239
<v Speaker 1>accept every rule that comes down the pipe. I've changed

0:02:59.280 --> 0:03:02.000
<v Speaker 1>a lot of things in my life, but certain things

0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:06.519
<v Speaker 1>you're wasting your time pushing up against them. Just accept them.

0:03:06.600 --> 0:03:13.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, this has been another ice cold fact from me.

0:03:13.720 --> 0:03:17.440
