I See's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's Up to Sights Team. You're listening to The Daily Game, the compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that I've found inspiring and help me through the game of life. It's time to reflect on everything you're thankful for. Happy Thanksgiving. Here's a quote for you today about how to treat your inner circle. The more people you cut off, the more you're able to do for those that truly
deserve and appreciate it. And that's big. You know, having a whole lot of people in your circle, there's no real way you can help all of them. But as you start to decide who's really on your side and who's just there for the ride, and who's going to talk behind your back and who's not really down with you, your circle starts to get smaller and smaller. You feel more comfortable helping them because you know they're your ride or dies so beat and you're not wasting energy on
people that don't deserve it. It was funny though, a lot of times they want us, the celebrities, to do things, and I was offered fifty thousand dollars to do something, and they said, you can donate it to charity. The amount of money I give out to people just to help them with this, that and the third people that I love, I could definitely donate that fifty grand to that. You know, I said, I got to start my own
benevolent association. I do have charities I donate to, but you know, this day, I was like, yo, I could use that money to send to such and such they trying to get a house. People always ask me like, do you help your friends? And I'm like, if I only had one friend, I could afford to put him in a house right next door to me. I could split my money like that and buy him a house right next door to me. But I got fucking fifty friends. So that's the trickle down effect of the same philanthropy.
I'm trying to be nice, but now I got to look it out for fifty people and relatives. It was funny. I was listening to Damn, one of my comedians friends, and he said, when his family found out how much he made, they quit their jobs. You know, so success, they'll bleed you, they'll bleed you. But if you learn to make the circle smaller, then When you do help, you're helping the ones that truly do deserve it, and
that comes with time. Fortunately, I've been in the game over thirty years, so I've seen all kinds of betrayals and all kinds of bullshit, and I'm down to, honestly, in my life, maybe ten solid friends that I've known since high school that been there, that've rolled it out with me. And that's coming from having hundreds of people in my circle down to ten. My dad told me, if you can count your friends on your hand, you won the game. So don't feel bad when you start
to tighten the circle. It's part of your evolution. This has been another ice cold fact from me iced tea. Listening again tomorrow when I drop some wisdom on your ass Till then, stay safe, stay smart, and stay knowing. If you lose some of your baggage, you can focus on the people who are really there for you.
