1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,360
Speaker 1: I See's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's

2
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:08,119
Speaker 1: Up Sides Team, You're listening to the Daily Game, the

3
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:12,240
Speaker 1: compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that

4
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:18,800
Speaker 1: I've found inspiring and helped me through the game of life. Today,

5
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:21,640
Speaker 1: I'm going to drop some knowledge from Apple co founder

6
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:32,479
Speaker 1: Steve Jobs. Innovation distinguishes between leader and follower. An innovator

7
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:34,600
Speaker 1: is the person that's going to think up the new things.

8
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 1: They're going to be the ones that are going to

9
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:38,440
Speaker 1: be coming with new ideas. The follower is going to

10
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:41,280
Speaker 1: wait on the idea, then they're going to implement and

11
00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:45,360
Speaker 1: build out on that idea. But the leader is the

12
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:48,559
Speaker 1: creative one. They're the one that's always thinking of different ways,

13
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,239
Speaker 1: different ideas. And I know that as far as in

14
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:56,640
Speaker 1: my business. You know, becoming a leader, you know unwillingly,

15
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: you know, you're just picked. Everybody looks at you like,

16
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: so what are we going to do next? That's your job.

17
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,040
Speaker 1: I mean, even if you have a group of friends,

18
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,039
Speaker 1: there's always one that's like, Okay, I've got the idea

19
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 1: for the night. I know what we're going to do,

20
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: how we're going to do this? And if something goes wrong,

21
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 1: everyone looks at them. Now, some people try to implement

22
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:19,319
Speaker 1: themselves as leaders and they're not leaders. You know, They're like,

23
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 1: I'm in charge, and they are usually fuck ups. You know.

24
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 1: Usually a leader is voted by the group. It's like

25
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: you're the best at You've been chosen, and we're willing

26
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 1: to follow your lead. But what jobs is saying that

27
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 1: the innovator will have to be the leader, the one

28
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: that's going to come up with the new ideas. So

29
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,559
Speaker 1: now you have to ask yourself, are you an innovator?

30
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 1: Are you a leader? Or are you a follower? Now

31
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 1: I know how to play both positions. There's power in

32
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 1: both positions. There's power and riding shotgun a person that

33
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 1: always has to be the leader. You know. They say

34
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 1: that some people will sink the ship just because they

35
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 1: can't steer it, you know. So you have to understand

36
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: what position you're in. So say, for instance, when I

37
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,239
Speaker 1: do my music, I'm the leader. I'm in charge of

38
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 1: body count. I'm the guy that's making the set lists.

39
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 1: I'm making all the calls out there on the road.

40
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 1: When I do law and order, I'm the follower. I

41
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,359
Speaker 1: show up, they tell me where I what I should say,

42
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 1: what I where, what I do. And I actually enjoy

43
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,960
Speaker 1: being a follower because, like I say, acting is the

44
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,920
Speaker 1: one job where it's someone else's job to tell you

45
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: what to do. So I can just walk in there

46
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 1: and be like, so, what's up for today? They go

47
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 1: where this stand here, here's some tape on the ground,

48
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 1: stand here, And I enjoy that because I don't have

49
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 1: to use my leadership ability. I can just relax. I

50
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 1: can just be an employee, so to speak. They say,

51
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 1: the head that where's the crown sleeps the heaviest, and

52
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 1: it's true. So a lot of people out there is like,

53
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 1: I want to be in charge. I want to run

54
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 1: my own business. I want to do that may not

55
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 1: be the smartest thing in the world. You know, having

56
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 1: a great leader and being able to work under them

57
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 1: can be the best occupation in the world if you

58
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 1: have correct leadership and you understand your job is important.

59
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: So get away from that. I have friends that are like, well,

60
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 1: if I'm not the boss, I don't want to be.

61
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,640
Speaker 1: I gotta be the boss. I gotta be you know,

62
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,119
Speaker 1: fuck that, I just need to get paid. I don't

63
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 1: I don't have to fucking be the boss. Dick Wolf

64
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: is my boss, and I've lived a great life. I'm boss.

65
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 1: I'm the boss in other aspects of my life, but

66
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 1: it's not essential. So Apple co founder Steve Job says,

67
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower. I get it.

68
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 1: The innovator must be the leader. The follower has to

69
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: carry out the job. But I'm here to say there's

70
00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: nothing wrong with being a follower if you have good leader.

71
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: This has been another ice cold fact from me. Iced team.

72
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 1: Listening again tomorrow when I drop some wisdom on your

73
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 1: ass till then, stay safe, stay smart, and stay knowing

74
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:19,479
Speaker 1: that innovation can be one of the predictors of greatness.
