Speaker 1

I see Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's up besides tea? You're listening to The Daily Game, the compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that I've found inspiring and helped me through the game of life. Today's quote is from something I keep in mind to stay focused and motivated. If you don't take a break, your body will take one for you. Even the most serious hustlers like myself have to chill out now and

then to reboot and reset. You know, the whole theory. I'm a hustle twenty four to seven. That's great, and now with cell phones and social media, you technically can stay engaged twenty four hours a day. I understand that work ethic. But if you don't stop every now and then, your body will shut down. And I know a lot of hustlers that have been put in high spitals from exhaustion. You are actually going in the hospital. You're not sick, you are exhausted. You gotta learn how to pace yourself.

Like our bodies are battery operated. They have to be recharged when we sleep. That's when your muscles grow, That's when everything happens. Your hair grows, everything happens. That's like replanning our seed in the soil and letting it grow a little bit every night. You gotta go through that. So some people can work on four hours five hours of sleep. I can run on five hours asleep. But then every once in a while I need to sleep in. I gotta sleep in for you know, get my eight

to ten hours just to recharge myself. Also a lot of times you might need to take a break. I had never taken a vacation until I got with Cocoa, and she was like, you got to slow down. And even if I go on vacation about two three four days in, I'm anxious to get back to work. So I understand you cereal hustlers out there, but you gotta do it. You gotta take a time. It gives you a chance to reset, reboot. Sometimes they call it a sabbatical. It's a break for health reasons, just to get your

mind right. And guess what, when you come back, you'll be stronger. Hey, I had to take a break during the COVID. You know, I didn't catch COVID when the pandemic was hitting hard, but it made me stop for a minute. It made me quarantine and it made me get my thoughts together. I know it happened for a lot of y'all, and when you came out, you came out stronger because you had a chance to organize in your mind. So sometimes taking that break, that's not a

lazy break, it's a needed break. It's essential. This has been another ice cole fact from me iced tea. Listening again tomorrow when I dropped some wisdom on your ass till then, stay safe, stay smart, and get some rest.
