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 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 1: Up to SiZ Team. You're listening to The Daily Game,

3
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 1: the compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years

4
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 1: that I've found inspiring and helped me through the game

5
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:21,680
Speaker 1: of life. Today's quote comes from an ancient rollment philosopher

6
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 1: named Seneca. He's one of the first cats to really

7
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:29,720
Speaker 1: reflect on life and people. Seneca said, we are more

8
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:34,279
Speaker 1: often frightened than hurt, and we suffer more from imagination

9
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 1: than from reality. How about that. What he's saying is

10
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: that you know, in our brains we can go through

11
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:49,519
Speaker 1: the same pain over and over and over again. We

12
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 1: can worry about things and suffer more than the actual

13
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: thing ever happening. One of my quotes I always said

14
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 1: is that worrying is like taking out a loan on

15
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 1: a problem that may never happen. You're now spending a

16
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 1: lot of energy based around what if, what if, what if?

17
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 1: And it may never come. So we're more frightened than hurt.

18
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,679
Speaker 1: But like this, you're in a relationship, you spend the

19
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:21,760
Speaker 1: whole relationship worrying about your girl leaving you, which means

20
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 1: you're frightened but she never does. So you're more frightened

21
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: than hurt, but you're still in that pain place and

22
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 1: you suffer more from your imagination than the reality. Ther

23
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 1: reality is she still right there or he's still right there. Oh,

24
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,959
Speaker 1: this hits close to home dealing with some of our

25
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,759
Speaker 1: family members who have friends that are always saying, Oh,

26
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: he's gonna do this, or she's gonna do that and this,

27
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 1: And I'm like, there's no proof, there's no evidence. You

28
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 1: are just imagining it because you're reflecting on Oh, well,

29
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 1: I'm not up to par I'm not that person I

30
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: should be. So they're gonna find somebody else, or they're

31
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: gonna do this, or they're gonna do that. So you

32
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 1: live in this world of perpetual pain, but they haven't

33
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: even hurt you yet. This is just where your brain is.

34
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 1: So there's a lot of deep layers here. Humans. We

35
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: put up guards as survival technique for the worst possible scenario,

36
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: which makes sense that there's been some deep trauma in

37
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 1: your life. But we also let our imaginations dictate our

38
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 1: reactions rather than the reality of our past. Like I said,

39
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:34,239
Speaker 1: this is some very multi level shit, but I like

40
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,959
Speaker 1: that I'm gonna save one more time on the way out.

41
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 1: We are more often frightened than hurt, and we suffer

42
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: more from imagination than from reality. Nun Less your imagination

43
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:53,679
Speaker 1: fuck your life up. This has been another ice cold

44
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: fact from me, iced tea. Listening again tomorrow when I

45
00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 1: drop some wisdom on your ass till then stay, say

46
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: say smart, and stay knowing that there's often a difference

47
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 1: between putting up your guard and worrying about what could happen.

48
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,320
