Speaker 1: I see Daily Game. It's a production of I Heart Radio.
Speaker 1: What's Up as I see 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. Today's quote is something from the late the
Speaker 1: great Iceberg Slim. For those of you don't know, Iceberg
Speaker 1: was a pimp and then later became a legit writer.
Speaker 1: I was very fortunate to meet Iceberg Slim. I named
Speaker 1: myself after Iceberg Slim. When I was in high school.
Speaker 1: I used to read the books and I used to
Speaker 1: spit a lot of knowledge and game from Iceberg slims
Speaker 1: to the young girl in high school. I would never
Speaker 1: tell him it was him. I thought they thought it
Speaker 1: was me, you know, talking like a forty five year
Speaker 1: old player. But at some point people used to say,
Speaker 1: say some more that ice stuff tea, and that's where
Speaker 1: iced tea came from. Iced tea is short for Iceberg.
Speaker 1: So my friends call me Berg in honor of Iceberg,
Speaker 1: and I was fortunate enough to meet Iceberg Slim before
Speaker 1: he passed. We also did a documentary on him called
Speaker 1: Portrait of a Pimp that you could check out. I
Speaker 1: told him my name myself after him, and he said,
Speaker 1: but who better, baby, So he gave me the nod
Speaker 1: to be the second Iceberg. Here's some knowledge from Iceberg.
Speaker 1: Slim may rest in peace. A fool only trips on
Speaker 1: what's behind him. What that really is saying is that
Speaker 1: the things that are behind you have already happened, and
Speaker 1: you have to keep moving forward. You can't get tied
Speaker 1: up on the past. A lot of people do that
Speaker 1: and they can never progress because they are continuously thinking
Speaker 1: about something that happened before that, something that happened back
Speaker 1: in the day. Something. You have to get past that
Speaker 1: and move forward. So did you can do what you
Speaker 1: gotta do, you know, like rip that rear view mirror
Speaker 1: off that car and drive forward, and don't be a fool.
Speaker 1: Don't waste time tripping over something that has happened, because
Speaker 1: you can't change that, but you can change your future.
Speaker 1: This has been another ice Co fact from me ice Tea.
Speaker 1: Listening again tomorrow when I dropped some wisdom on your
Speaker 1: ass till then, stay safe, stay smart, and always stay
Speaker 1: facing forward. I See Daily Game is a production of
