Ice Ty's Daily Game. It is a production of iHeartRadio. What's Up is Ice 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 helped me through the game of life. Happy New Year, Hope this year brings you much success, happiness, and of course more episodes of ice Teas Daily Game. Today's quote comes from former First Lady who is also an activist and political figure herself, Eleanor Roosevelt.

Today is the oldest you've ever been and the youngest you'll ever be. I've been using this quote for a long time and I never know it came from Eleanor Roosevelt. It's a wake up call. It's like saying, this is the youngest you'll ever be today. Tomorrow you will be older, and it's the oldest you've ever been. So every day this is true, every single day. I think the one that's hard to swallow is this is the youngest you'll ever be. We're not gonna go backwards. So whatever age

you are, this is it for you right now. So if you say I'm gonna do it next year, you're gonna be older, you might want to get it in today because you're not gonna get any time backwards. There's another weird thing that happens once you cross fifty is you've probably lived more years than you have left. Right, You've already experienced more time than you have in the future. One of my other friends quotes is, you're dead a

lot longer than you're alive. You know, when you die, you be dead forever from hundreds of thousands of years, but you're only alive if you're lucky for one hundred years. So you got to make the most of it. You got to make a most of every single day, every minute you possibly can. And a lot of people like I'm wasting my life, I'm working. I always say, you gotta do what you gotta do till you could do what you want to do. But try to spend as much time as you can enjoying yourself and being happy.

Don't put off happiness. There was a book called Don't Sweat the Small Stuff and This All Small Stuff, and one of the main quote was delaying happiness. It's like you get a car and you go, damn, man, I got the car. I'm happy, but I'll be more happy when I get the wheels on it, and then you get that, well when I get my stereo. You keep delaying happiness like you got the car. Be happy, or don't keep delaying it like it's winter. I'll be happy

when summer gets here. You'd summer, damn man, Christmas is close. You're jumping years like you're you better enjoy it. What month is it? This is a January? Well, enjoy the fuck out of January. You understand. Take January. Make the best out of January. Don't push to the summer. You're just fucking off five months. You know what of life? So today is the oldest you've ever been, But it's

also the youngest you're ever gonna be. So take advantage of that, you know, enjoy every single second of life that you can enjoy. 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 that today is a gift. Stay in the present. Icey's Daily Game.
