Speaker 1: I see Daily Game as a production of iHeartRadio. What's
Speaker 1: Up beside? You're listening to? The Daily Game a compilation
Speaker 1: of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that I've
Speaker 1: found inspiring and helped me through the game of life.
Speaker 1: This quote is all about jealousy around you while you're
Speaker 1: achieving your goals. It's dangerous to have jealous people around you.
Speaker 1: They look at you as competition while you look at
Speaker 1: them as family or friends. Jealousy is a weird emotion too,
Speaker 1: It's a weird feeling. But I've noticed that a lot
Speaker 1: of times strangers will be less jealous of you than
Speaker 1: close friends of family members. And the reason is that
Speaker 1: a stranger didn't have the same life as you. So
Speaker 1: a stranger that just knows me as a rapper actor,
Speaker 1: he can't really equate his life journey with mine because
Speaker 1: he didn't have it along with me, Whereas a friend
Speaker 1: started at the same place and the same time as me,
Speaker 1: where I might have succeeded, and they didn't. And there's
Speaker 1: the problem. People are like, why didn't you blow up
Speaker 1: like ice? Why didn't this happen for you? If they
Speaker 1: really my dog, if they really my friend, they like
Speaker 1: because it wasn't supposed to happen for me like that,
Speaker 1: I did this, I did that. I'm happy and Mike's friend,
Speaker 1: that's what he was meant to do. This is what
Speaker 1: I was meant to do. But if they're jealous and
Speaker 1: they're looking at you your competition for them. It happens
Speaker 1: in the family where you may have two kids siblings.
Speaker 1: One is going off to school and doing really well
Speaker 1: and the other one may not, but the parents pit
Speaker 1: them against each other. Oh well, we like the one
Speaker 1: that's doing well better, so the jealousy kicks in, like
Speaker 1: you're the favorite child and you're doing better than me,
Speaker 1: and I'm now competing with you. Doesn't work in a relationship.
Speaker 1: And a relationship, you have to be teammates, not opponents.
Speaker 1: You know, you have to be an asset, not a liability.
Speaker 1: So you have to make sure that when we're in
Speaker 1: a relationship, both of you are on the same team.
Speaker 1: A win for the family is a win for both
Speaker 1: of you. Guys. Doesn't happen like that. You have a
Speaker 1: one person who might be the breadwinner, so to speak,
Speaker 1: and the other wind will start to build animosity against
Speaker 1: the one that's doing the winning. Right now, instead of
Speaker 1: saying you're winning for us, we're lucky to be together. Now,
Speaker 1: there's also the reverse where the one who's winning and
Speaker 1: doing everything rubs that in the face of the rest
Speaker 1: of the other people. I'm making all the money, y'all
Speaker 1: ain't doing nothing. That's tacky anyway, that's tacky, and that's
Speaker 1: real corny, you know. But it's dangerous to have jealous
Speaker 1: people around you. They look at you as competition while
Speaker 1: you look at them as family and friends. So check
Speaker 1: your girlfriends, check your homeboys. Are they really competing? Especially
Speaker 1: are they in the same area as you. Are they
Speaker 1: trying to be whatever you're trying to be. You know,
Speaker 1: you might not be inspiring them. They might be competing
Speaker 1: with you on the low. Watch for that. It's not healthy.
Speaker 1: This has been another Ice Cole fact from me Iced Tea.
Speaker 1: Listening again tomorrow when I drop some wisdom on your
Speaker 1: ass Till then, stay safe, stay smart, and stay knowing
Speaker 1: that jealousy can win even the closest bonds. IC's Daily Game.
