Speaker 1: is everything. Okay, ability is good. You can have the

12
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:49,879

Speaker 1: First question, what's he like? I said? He'll sleep on

21
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 1: the floor of the studio. Oh, that's dope. I'm a

28
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,559
Speaker 1: People want to help you. I used to always say,

29
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 1: let's do it idea. I'm in a restaurant and I

30
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 1: need to hire somebody. I'm with my boys, and this

31
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 1: one guy comes over to me and says, hey, ice man,

32
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 1: I want to work for you. Uh, he's taking his shot.

33
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: I shouldn't be here. I'm smarter than that, I'm bigger

34
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 1: than that. I'm a genius. I should be on you know,

35
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 1: I want to get down with you guys. Okay, he's

36
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 1: making an effort, but he's got this attitude that he's

37
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 1: bigger than this. It's another guy. I look over in

38
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 1: the restaurant. He's down there scrubbing the floor with a toothbrush.

39
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 1: He's working, he's getting his work on Okay. I bump

40
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 1: into him at the bathroom. I'm like, man, I see

41
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: you grind, he says. Man, Hey, man, I'm just trying

42
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 1: to do what I gotta do. Man, I'm trying to

43
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: take care of my family. You know, I like the

44
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 1: music business, but I ain't never had a break. Which

45
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 1: guy am I going to give a break to? The

46
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 1: one that's on his knees scrubbing with the toothbrush, the

47
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: guy that's working, not the guy whose attitude says he

48
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 1: should be on my level, the guy who's humble, and

49
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 1: the guy who's really busting his ass. Mama say, well,

50
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,640
Speaker 1: if this is his attitude here at this restaurant, maybe

51
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 1: he'll bring that attitude to the workplace with me. Walter

52
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 1: Scott says for success, attitude is equally as important as ability.

53
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,239
Speaker 1: I'll say it's more important because if you got the

54
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 1: right attitude, I might let you learn. I might bring

55
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 1: you into the game and help you learn. A learner's

56
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 1: attitude is better than somebody thinks they know it all,

57
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,920
Speaker 1: So adjust your attitude about this shit. People really want

58
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 1: to help humble people. They not into helping people that

59
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 1: think they know it all. If you know it all

60
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: and why you ain't there. That's how we look at it.

61
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: If you know it all, then what the fuck you

62
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:30,919
