I see Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's Up besides Tee? You're listening to The Daily Game, the compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that I found inspiring and helped me through the game of life. Today's quote is something I keep in mind to stay focused and motivated no matter the situation. Never let your emotions overpower your intelligence. This is a tough one because
your emotions will always kick in before your intelligence. Somebody says something to you out the way, you're ready to smack the shit out of them. That's your emotions. Your emotions like I'm mad, you want to reach out, can't do that. I'm one of those people who can get emotionally connected to stuff, but I learned a long time ago I gotta put my emotions on chill a lot of times when things happen. It's good to give yourself
time before you react. If you're mad, if you and your wife are fighting, walk your ass out of that house, go down the block. Cool off because in the heat at a moment, you might do or say things that you'll regret forever. Emotional reactions are never the best reaction. Sit back, think about it, talk about it, build with it. With some of your other friends who aren't emotionally connected to the situation. They'll give you a logical response. I always say that men tend to be more logical. Women
will move emotionally. A woman will stab you and then turn around and cry, oh my God, what did I do? Watch out if a woman ever pulls a knife on you, run, motherfucker, because they more than likely are moving on emotions at that moment. A guy pulls a gun, he might stop. He might think if I pull this trigger, what's going to happen to me? I might go to prison, I'm gonna go to jail, He's gonna die. And that logical reaction might get him not to pull the trigger. And
I'm not saying that men aren't emotional. I am they are too. And I'm not saying that women aren't making logical decisions. But I know from my experience I'm more scared of a woman with a knife because I know that moment she might just reach out and be like, oh my god, what have I done? Because emotions are driving you at that moment. Always divide the two. I remember one time my friend was about to go do something that he would have regretted the rest of his life.
And I understand that he was emotionally driven at that point, and I had to become emotional with him to get him to understand that this is how you're thinking, but let's think of the other side of this, what's going to actually happen afterwards. And I was able to bring him to his sense. Unfortunately, he didn't spend the rest of his life in prison because of an emotional decision. You have to learn to di's a difference, and you
have to know not to trust that emotional decision. Stop, take a break, take a breath, and think out the ramifications about what you're about to do. This has been another Ice cole fact from me iced Tea. Listening again tomorrow when I drop some wisdom on your ass. Till then, stay safe, stay smart, and stay locked in Ices.
