Speaker 1: I See's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's
Speaker 1: Up in Size Team? You're listening to The Daily Game
Speaker 1: the compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years
Speaker 1: that I've found inspiring and helped me through the game
Speaker 1: of life. Today's quote comes from Ralph Waldo Emerson, a
Speaker 1: philosopher who led the Transcendentalist movement. Believing people are their
Speaker 1: best when they are self reliant and independent.
Speaker 2: Ralph said, do not go where the path may lead.
Speaker 1: Go instead where there is no path, and leave a trail.
Speaker 1: This is one of my philosophies. Find a lane that's open.
Speaker 1: If everybody's running down this lane. Let's think we're talking
Speaker 1: about music. If all music sounds a certain way, don't
Speaker 1: be the people that make music that sounds just like theirs.
Speaker 2: Pick another lane.
Speaker 1: Now, the trick is that new lane that you pick
Speaker 1: may not be that popular at the moment, but if
Speaker 1: it becomes popular, you are the leader in that lane.
Speaker 1: So anytime I'm talking to people, I'm like, try to
Speaker 1: find something that hasn't been done, or if it has
Speaker 1: been done, you still have to shear from that path
Speaker 1: and make it better or make it different. But people
Speaker 1: that just follow other people's paths.
Speaker 2: I don't know. That's an awful existence.
Speaker 1: I mean I always say there can only be one
Speaker 1: original and everything else is a copy. So seek originality
Speaker 1: in your life. Go left like Cool Keith, one of
Speaker 1: my friends, always said, if you want to be original,
Speaker 1: look and see what everyone else is doing, and don't
Speaker 1: do that that's original. Find a lane that hasn't been
Speaker 1: traveled yet and leave your own path.
Speaker 2: This is one of my keys to success.
Speaker 1: You know, everybody knows I'm a rapper, but when I
Speaker 1: started my metal band body Count, there were very very
Speaker 1: few black metal bands and we've just won a Grammy
Speaker 1: for Best Metal Performance. We stayed on our lane for
Speaker 1: twenty five years now going on thirty years, and we
Speaker 1: are known as being a very unique band, and we
Speaker 1: stand in the lane that's all our own because we
Speaker 1: found a path and we made a trail.
Speaker 2: I pay attention.
Speaker 1: Stop following other people, have the courage to make your
Speaker 1: own trail.
Speaker 2: Do not go where the path may lead.
Speaker 1: Go instead where there is no path, and leave a
Speaker 1: trail that's dope. This has been another ice cold fact
Speaker 1: from me.
Speaker 2: 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 real hustlers make their own past.
Speaker 2: We don't follow trends. I Sees Daily Game.
