Speaker 1: I See's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's
Speaker 1: up to SiZ team. You're listening to The Daily Game,
Speaker 1: a compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years
Speaker 1: that I found inspiring and helped me through the game
Speaker 1: of life. We could thank the great Chinese philosopher Confusius
Speaker 1: for this gem. Better a diamond with a flaw than
Speaker 1: a pebble without. But I think he's really saying it's
Speaker 1: better to be great and have flaws just to be
Speaker 1: on the sideline. There's thousands of pebbles. Nothing is really precious.
Speaker 1: It's better to be a diamond with imperfections, you know,
Speaker 1: so you want to work your way to where you
Speaker 1: are precious, and then even if you do have imperfections,
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. You're still a diamond than just to
Speaker 1: be people on the sidelines that have not perfected themselves
Speaker 1: in any way. I like relaying a lot of things
Speaker 1: to sports. It's like, it's better to be the last
Speaker 1: guy in the bench of a protea and somebody can't
Speaker 1: even make it to the pros. You know, he might
Speaker 1: not be the star, but he's still there. He's a diamond.
Speaker 1: He might not have the imperfections. I think Confucius is
Speaker 1: really just trying to say, stand out and be the
Speaker 1: best you can be, even if you do have flaws.
Speaker 1: That's still much better than a piece of shit on
Speaker 1: the side of the road talking shit. That's ICE's interpretation
Speaker 1: of Confucius. It's better to be a diamond with a
Speaker 1: flaw than a pebble without. This has been another Ice
Speaker 1: Cold fact from me Iced team. Listening again tomorrow when
Speaker 1: I drop some wisdom on your ass till then, stay safe,
Speaker 1: stay smart, say knowing that being unique and special it's
Speaker 1: way better than be an average. Icey's Daily Game is
