WEBVTT - Successful Warriors

0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:04.600
<v Speaker 1>Icey's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's Up,

0:00:04.720 --> 0:00:08.840
<v Speaker 1>Size Team, You're listening to. The Daily Game the compilation

0:00:08.960 --> 0:00:12.440
<v Speaker 1>of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that I

0:00:12.600 --> 0:00:16.720
<v Speaker 1>found inspiring and helped me through the game of life.

0:00:18.560 --> 0:00:21.680
<v Speaker 1>Today's quote comes from one of the greatest martial artists

0:00:21.720 --> 0:00:26.759
<v Speaker 1>of all times, and actor, Bruce Lee. Bruce said, the

0:00:26.840 --> 0:00:32.560
<v Speaker 1>successful warrior is an average man with laser like focus.

0:00:33.479 --> 0:00:35.640
<v Speaker 1>I totally agree, because at the end of the day,

0:00:35.680 --> 0:00:39.520
<v Speaker 1>we're all average. You know, you work to become great,

0:00:39.640 --> 0:00:42.320
<v Speaker 1>You work to get better. You don't start out in

0:00:42.400 --> 0:00:46.440
<v Speaker 1>the martial arts as some black belt. You work so

0:00:46.479 --> 0:00:49.640
<v Speaker 1>you start off as an average man, but you have

0:00:50.080 --> 0:00:54.080
<v Speaker 1>a focus that can't be matched. When I first started

0:00:54.080 --> 0:00:57.280
<v Speaker 1>making music, I was working with Henry Rollins, and Henry

0:00:57.360 --> 0:01:00.160
<v Speaker 1>Rollins taught me it's not about being mad at everything.

0:01:00.440 --> 0:01:05.120
<v Speaker 1>It's about being really mad at the right shit. So

0:01:05.400 --> 0:01:08.319
<v Speaker 1>if you think of your energy as light, if you

0:01:08.440 --> 0:01:12.560
<v Speaker 1>focus it across a field, everything is dimly lit. But

0:01:12.600 --> 0:01:16.240
<v Speaker 1>if you aim at one target and you create a laser,

0:01:16.840 --> 0:01:19.920
<v Speaker 1>that's where your true power is. So you have to

0:01:19.959 --> 0:01:24.319
<v Speaker 1>have laser like focus to achieve greatness. As a warrior

0:01:24.440 --> 0:01:27.840
<v Speaker 1>as a person, as a businessman, you have to figure

0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:31.679
<v Speaker 1>out what it is you're trying to do and don't

0:01:31.720 --> 0:01:35.000
<v Speaker 1>think about anything else, focused strictly on that. Now, that's

0:01:35.000 --> 0:01:37.000
<v Speaker 1>hard to do when you have family and you have friends,

0:01:37.000 --> 0:01:39.200
<v Speaker 1>but I'm talking about when you're in your zone and

0:01:39.280 --> 0:01:43.760
<v Speaker 1>your work zone, everything else is blocked out. I've earlier

0:01:43.800 --> 0:01:46.320
<v Speaker 1>spoke about worrying about other people and what they're doing

0:01:46.560 --> 0:01:50.080
<v Speaker 1>that has nothing to do with what you're trying to do.

0:01:50.720 --> 0:01:54.480
<v Speaker 1>So you have to have a laser like focus on

0:01:54.600 --> 0:01:57.520
<v Speaker 1>the objective. I was just talking to one of my

0:01:57.600 --> 0:02:02.160
<v Speaker 1>producers and we said that women have the ability to multitask.

0:02:02.840 --> 0:02:07.880
<v Speaker 1>Men are basically one track mind. That's why if your

0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:12.040
<v Speaker 1>husband is watching the football game and you distract me's like, aha, no,

0:02:12.520 --> 0:02:15.920
<v Speaker 1>don't talk because he is so focused on that fucking game.

0:02:16.200 --> 0:02:19.160
<v Speaker 1>He is not thinking about anything. No bills, no this,

0:02:19.320 --> 0:02:21.959
<v Speaker 1>no that, no this Now. Why do people say why

0:02:21.960 --> 0:02:24.040
<v Speaker 1>do guys say, oh, while I'm watching a game is

0:02:24.080 --> 0:02:28.520
<v Speaker 1>a stress reliever because it requires so much focus for

0:02:28.600 --> 0:02:31.200
<v Speaker 1>that moment, can't think about any of my other problems.

0:02:31.360 --> 0:02:33.920
<v Speaker 1>That's why video games work for me. I have to

0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:36.920
<v Speaker 1>worry about this fucking dinosaur or this fucking monster that

0:02:36.960 --> 0:02:39.919
<v Speaker 1>is trying to kill me. I cannot think about my life,

0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:45.080
<v Speaker 1>so it removes the other things. So these things require

0:02:45.560 --> 0:02:49.560
<v Speaker 1>laser like focus. Women, y'all can laser focus on ten

0:02:49.639 --> 0:02:52.519
<v Speaker 1>fifteen things at a time. I don't know if it's

0:02:52.560 --> 0:02:54.960
<v Speaker 1>totally as strong, because I could be watching a movie

0:02:54.960 --> 0:02:57.480
<v Speaker 1>with Coco and we're watching the exact same movie and

0:02:57.560 --> 0:03:00.440
<v Speaker 1>she's asking me what the fuck is going on? It's like,

0:03:00.520 --> 0:03:03.040
<v Speaker 1>why are you thinking about the laundry? Why are you

0:03:03.120 --> 0:03:07.240
<v Speaker 1>thinking about Chanelle's school? Tomorrow? Watch this goddamn movie with me.

0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:10.280
<v Speaker 1>She can't do it. She's a woman. I understand it.

0:03:10.520 --> 0:03:13.280
<v Speaker 1>She's thinking about other things that I need to help

0:03:13.360 --> 0:03:17.440
<v Speaker 1>keep me alive. So I love her. But Bruce Lee says,

0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:21.359
<v Speaker 1>a successful warrior, let's just change it into a person

0:03:22.000 --> 0:03:27.520
<v Speaker 1>is an average person with laser like focus, meaning that

0:03:27.760 --> 0:03:33.080
<v Speaker 1>focus is what's required to be successful in all aspects

0:03:33.160 --> 0:03:40.320
<v Speaker 1>of your life. This has been another ice cold fact

0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:43.960
<v Speaker 1>from me, Iced Tea listening again tomorrow when I drop
