WEBVTT - Paths

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 --> 0:00:07.560
<v Speaker 1>Up in Size Team? You're listening to The Daily Game

0:00:08.080 --> 0:00:11.840
<v Speaker 1>the compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years

0:00:12.160 --> 0:00:15.920
<v Speaker 1>that I've found inspiring and helped me through the game

0:00:15.960 --> 0:00:21.880
<v Speaker 1>of life. Today's quote comes from Ralph Waldo Emerson, a

0:00:21.920 --> 0:00:26.800
<v Speaker 1>philosopher who led the Transcendentalist movement. Believing people are their

0:00:26.880 --> 0:00:30.320
<v Speaker 1>best when they are self reliant and independent.

0:00:31.080 --> 0:00:34.520
<v Speaker 2>Ralph said, do not go where the path may lead.

0:00:35.120 --> 0:00:38.720
<v Speaker 1>Go instead where there is no path, and leave a trail.

0:00:40.200 --> 0:00:44.640
<v Speaker 1>This is one of my philosophies. Find a lane that's open.

0:00:45.240 --> 0:00:48.320
<v Speaker 1>If everybody's running down this lane. Let's think we're talking

0:00:48.320 --> 0:00:52.040
<v Speaker 1>about music. If all music sounds a certain way, don't

0:00:52.040 --> 0:00:55.600
<v Speaker 1>be the people that make music that sounds just like theirs.

0:00:56.040 --> 0:00:57.279
<v Speaker 2>Pick another lane.

0:00:57.400 --> 0:01:01.040
<v Speaker 1>Now, the trick is that new lane that you pick

0:01:01.440 --> 0:01:06.479
<v Speaker 1>may not be that popular at the moment, but if

0:01:06.520 --> 0:01:12.000
<v Speaker 1>it becomes popular, you are the leader in that lane.

0:01:12.080 --> 0:01:15.080
<v Speaker 1>So anytime I'm talking to people, I'm like, try to

0:01:15.120 --> 0:01:20.000
<v Speaker 1>find something that hasn't been done, or if it has

0:01:20.080 --> 0:01:22.640
<v Speaker 1>been done, you still have to shear from that path

0:01:23.000 --> 0:01:26.360
<v Speaker 1>and make it better or make it different. But people

0:01:26.400 --> 0:01:28.480
<v Speaker 1>that just follow other people's paths.

0:01:29.200 --> 0:01:31.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. That's an awful existence.

0:01:31.040 --> 0:01:33.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean I always say there can only be one

0:01:33.040 --> 0:01:38.920
<v Speaker 1>original and everything else is a copy. So seek originality

0:01:39.040 --> 0:01:42.240
<v Speaker 1>in your life. Go left like Cool Keith, one of

0:01:42.240 --> 0:01:44.399
<v Speaker 1>my friends, always said, if you want to be original,

0:01:44.600 --> 0:01:47.440
<v Speaker 1>look and see what everyone else is doing, and don't

0:01:47.480 --> 0:01:51.440
<v Speaker 1>do that that's original. Find a lane that hasn't been

0:01:51.520 --> 0:01:53.840
<v Speaker 1>traveled yet and leave your own path.

0:01:54.400 --> 0:01:56.560
<v Speaker 2>This is one of my keys to success.

0:01:57.040 --> 0:02:00.120
<v Speaker 1>You know, everybody knows I'm a rapper, but when I

0:02:00.120 --> 0:02:03.840
<v Speaker 1>started my metal band body Count, there were very very

0:02:03.880 --> 0:02:08.040
<v Speaker 1>few black metal bands and we've just won a Grammy

0:02:08.080 --> 0:02:11.160
<v Speaker 1>for Best Metal Performance. We stayed on our lane for

0:02:11.280 --> 0:02:15.919
<v Speaker 1>twenty five years now going on thirty years, and we

0:02:15.960 --> 0:02:18.560
<v Speaker 1>are known as being a very unique band, and we

0:02:18.720 --> 0:02:22.080
<v Speaker 1>stand in the lane that's all our own because we

0:02:22.160 --> 0:02:24.400
<v Speaker 1>found a path and we made a trail.

0:02:24.919 --> 0:02:25.880
<v Speaker 2>I pay attention.

0:02:26.400 --> 0:02:30.880
<v Speaker 1>Stop following other people, have the courage to make your

0:02:30.919 --> 0:02:31.560
<v Speaker 1>own trail.

0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:34.400
<v Speaker 2>Do not go where the path may lead.

0:02:34.720 --> 0:02:38.160
<v Speaker 1>Go instead where there is no path, and leave a

0:02:38.240 --> 0:02:46.119
<v Speaker 1>trail that's dope. This has been another ice cold fact

0:02:46.200 --> 0:02:46.480
<v Speaker 1>from me.

0:02:46.760 --> 0:02:47.320
<v Speaker 2>Iced tea.

0:02:47.639 --> 0:02:50.880

0:02:50.919 --> 0:02:54.760
<v Speaker 1>ass till then, stay safe, stay smart, and stay knowing

0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:57.639
