1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,680 Speaker 1: I's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's UF 2 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:08,920 Speaker 1: Decise Team You're listening to. The Daily Game a compilation 3 00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:12,520 Speaker 1: of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that I 4 00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:16,800 Speaker 1: found inspiring and helped me through the game of life. 5 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,160 Speaker 1: Today's quote is coming to you from Lao Zu, whose 6 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:26,720 Speaker 1: name translates to Old Master. Lao Zu was a sixth 7 00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: century Chinese philosopher who emphasized the importance of non action 8 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 1: resistance to live an elevated life. Lao said, he who 9 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:42,200 Speaker 1: conquers others is strong, He who conquers himself is mighty. 10 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:51,520 Speaker 1: The deepest control is self control, you know, overpowering somebody else, 11 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: outsmartan somebody else. Yeah, you might be considered mighty if 12 00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 1: you can conquer people's minds or get people to roll 13 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 1: with you, that's one thing. But conquering yourself, having absolute 14 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 1: and total self control and discipline, it's damnar impossible. Because 15 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 1: all of us do things we said we weren't gonna do. 16 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 1: Whether it's like sticking to a diet damn near impossible, 17 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 1: sticking to a workout regimen, damn near impossible. How many 18 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: times are you doing things you said you weren't gonna do, 19 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: but you do it. You make excuses. So to conquer yourself, 20 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 1: to have absolute and total control over yourself will make 21 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: you mighty. And I sit with so many people and 22 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: it is like ice man, I can't do this. I can't. 23 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 1: You know, I'm weak. I lose this like I lose focus. 24 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: And that's your ultimate battle is you can you can 25 00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: trol yourself? Can you conquer yourself? So I agree totally 26 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: with Loud. You know, there's a lot of people that 27 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: can conquer other people, but then they have no control. 28 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 1: There's a lot of people in history that have been 29 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: so dominant outwards toward people, but in their own life 30 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: it was a disaster. In their own life. They had 31 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 1: no self control, and most of those people imploded. You know, 32 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 1: they were so powerful outwards, but inwards they had no control. 33 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 1: So once you control yourself and you have absolute total 34 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:35,360 Speaker 1: self control, you become mighty. And I think that's what 35 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 1: we all should work for, absolute and total self control. 36 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 1: This has been another ice cold fact from me iced tea. 37 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: Listening again tomorrow when I drop some wisdom on your 38 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 1: ass till then, stay safe, stay smart, and stay knowing 39 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,959 Speaker 1: that if you can conquer yourself makes you a more 40 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:03,239 Speaker 1: powerful human being overall.
