WEBVTT - Innovation

0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:04.360
<v Speaker 1>I See's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's

0:00:04.440 --> 0:00:08.119
<v Speaker 1>Up Sides Team, You're listening to the Daily Game, the

0:00:08.240 --> 0:00:12.240
<v Speaker 1>compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that

0:00:12.360 --> 0:00:18.800
<v Speaker 1>I've found inspiring and helped me through the game of life. Today,

0:00:18.840 --> 0:00:21.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to drop some knowledge from Apple co founder

0:00:21.760 --> 0:00:32.479
<v Speaker 1>Steve Jobs. Innovation distinguishes between leader and follower. An innovator

0:00:32.560 --> 0:00:34.600
<v Speaker 1>is the person that's going to think up the new things.

0:00:34.640 --> 0:00:36.040
<v Speaker 1>They're going to be the ones that are going to

0:00:36.040 --> 0:00:38.440
<v Speaker 1>be coming with new ideas. The follower is going to

0:00:38.520 --> 0:00:41.280
<v Speaker 1>wait on the idea, then they're going to implement and

0:00:41.400 --> 0:00:45.360
<v Speaker 1>build out on that idea. But the leader is the

0:00:45.440 --> 0:00:48.559
<v Speaker 1>creative one. They're the one that's always thinking of different ways,

0:00:49.159 --> 0:00:52.239
<v Speaker 1>different ideas. And I know that as far as in

0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:56.640
<v Speaker 1>my business. You know, becoming a leader, you know unwillingly,

0:00:56.760 --> 0:00:59.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, you're just picked. Everybody looks at you like,

0:01:00.160 --> 0:01:03.000
<v Speaker 1>so what are we going to do next? That's your job.

0:01:03.240 --> 0:01:05.040
<v Speaker 1>I mean, even if you have a group of friends,

0:01:05.080 --> 0:01:08.039
<v Speaker 1>there's always one that's like, Okay, I've got the idea

0:01:08.120 --> 0:01:09.640
<v Speaker 1>for the night. I know what we're going to do,

0:01:09.720 --> 0:01:12.000
<v Speaker 1>how we're going to do this? And if something goes wrong,

0:01:12.040 --> 0:01:15.360
<v Speaker 1>everyone looks at them. Now, some people try to implement

0:01:15.400 --> 0:01:19.319
<v Speaker 1>themselves as leaders and they're not leaders. You know, They're like,

0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:22.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm in charge, and they are usually fuck ups. You know.

0:01:22.959 --> 0:01:26.679
<v Speaker 1>Usually a leader is voted by the group. It's like

0:01:26.840 --> 0:01:31.000
<v Speaker 1>you're the best at You've been chosen, and we're willing

0:01:31.040 --> 0:01:34.120
<v Speaker 1>to follow your lead. But what jobs is saying that

0:01:34.160 --> 0:01:37.280
<v Speaker 1>the innovator will have to be the leader, the one

0:01:37.280 --> 0:01:39.520
<v Speaker 1>that's going to come up with the new ideas. So

0:01:39.600 --> 0:01:42.559
<v Speaker 1>now you have to ask yourself, are you an innovator?

0:01:42.600 --> 0:01:45.360
<v Speaker 1>Are you a leader? Or are you a follower? Now

0:01:45.800 --> 0:01:49.240
<v Speaker 1>I know how to play both positions. There's power in

0:01:49.320 --> 0:01:54.920
<v Speaker 1>both positions. There's power and riding shotgun a person that

0:01:55.160 --> 0:01:58.240
<v Speaker 1>always has to be the leader. You know. They say

0:01:58.280 --> 0:02:00.840
<v Speaker 1>that some people will sink the ship just because they

0:02:00.880 --> 0:02:04.520
<v Speaker 1>can't steer it, you know. So you have to understand

0:02:05.120 --> 0:02:07.360
<v Speaker 1>what position you're in. So say, for instance, when I

0:02:07.400 --> 0:02:10.239
<v Speaker 1>do my music, I'm the leader. I'm in charge of

0:02:10.320 --> 0:02:13.240
<v Speaker 1>body count. I'm the guy that's making the set lists.

0:02:13.320 --> 0:02:15.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm making all the calls out there on the road.

0:02:15.960 --> 0:02:19.280
<v Speaker 1>When I do law and order, I'm the follower. I

0:02:19.400 --> 0:02:22.359
<v Speaker 1>show up, they tell me where I what I should say,

0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:25.760
<v Speaker 1>what I where, what I do. And I actually enjoy

0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:28.960
<v Speaker 1>being a follower because, like I say, acting is the

0:02:29.000 --> 0:02:32.920
<v Speaker 1>one job where it's someone else's job to tell you

0:02:33.000 --> 0:02:35.600
<v Speaker 1>what to do. So I can just walk in there

0:02:35.639 --> 0:02:37.240
<v Speaker 1>and be like, so, what's up for today? They go

0:02:37.360 --> 0:02:40.240
<v Speaker 1>where this stand here, here's some tape on the ground,

0:02:40.360 --> 0:02:44.800
<v Speaker 1>stand here, And I enjoy that because I don't have

0:02:44.880 --> 0:02:47.480
<v Speaker 1>to use my leadership ability. I can just relax. I

0:02:47.480 --> 0:02:51.000
<v Speaker 1>can just be an employee, so to speak. They say,

0:02:51.040 --> 0:02:53.400
<v Speaker 1>the head that where's the crown sleeps the heaviest, and

0:02:53.440 --> 0:02:55.960
<v Speaker 1>it's true. So a lot of people out there is like,

0:02:56.120 --> 0:02:57.960
<v Speaker 1>I want to be in charge. I want to run

0:02:58.000 --> 0:03:00.840
<v Speaker 1>my own business. I want to do that may not

0:03:00.880 --> 0:03:03.520
<v Speaker 1>be the smartest thing in the world. You know, having

0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:06.400
<v Speaker 1>a great leader and being able to work under them

0:03:07.040 --> 0:03:11.440
<v Speaker 1>can be the best occupation in the world if you

0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:15.520
<v Speaker 1>have correct leadership and you understand your job is important.

0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:18.200
<v Speaker 1>So get away from that. I have friends that are like, well,

0:03:18.200 --> 0:03:20.280
<v Speaker 1>if I'm not the boss, I don't want to be.

0:03:20.320 --> 0:03:22.640
<v Speaker 1>I gotta be the boss. I gotta be you know,

0:03:23.040 --> 0:03:26.119
<v Speaker 1>fuck that, I just need to get paid. I don't

0:03:26.120 --> 0:03:29.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't have to fucking be the boss. Dick Wolf

0:03:29.639 --> 0:03:34.960
<v Speaker 1>is my boss, and I've lived a great life. I'm boss.

0:03:35.000 --> 0:03:38.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm the boss in other aspects of my life, but

0:03:39.080 --> 0:03:44.160
<v Speaker 1>it's not essential. So Apple co founder Steve Job says,

0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:49.720
<v Speaker 1>innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower. I get it.

0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:53.360
<v Speaker 1>The innovator must be the leader. The follower has to

0:03:53.360 --> 0:03:56.360
<v Speaker 1>carry out the job. But I'm here to say there's

0:03:56.400 --> 0:04:00.000
<v Speaker 1>nothing wrong with being a follower if you have good leader.

0:04:05.120 --> 0:04:08.240
<v Speaker 1>This has been another ice cold fact from me. Iced team.

0:04:08.240 --> 0:04:11.480
<v Speaker 1>Listening again tomorrow when I drop some wisdom on your

0:04:11.520 --> 0:04:15.280
<v Speaker 1>ass till then, stay safe, stay smart, and stay knowing

0:04:15.320 --> 0:04:19.479
<v Speaker 1>that innovation can be one of the predictors of greatness.
