Ice SE's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's Up Size Team? 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. Okay, today is coming from one of my real homies, Og Snoop dog Snoop Dogg can do no wrong as far as I'm concerned. I've seen Snoop Dogg come from Dre's young rapper to being to me, honestly, the biggest rapper

in history. Whether you say who's the most known rapper on Earth, I think is Snoop Dogg. I mean, you'll have people that might say jay Z, they might say Eminem, But face value, I believe more people on Earth know who Snoop dog is than any other rapper. And Snoop has taken it from the hardest level of the gangst the world to.

Speaker 2

The super Bowl, you know, and that's my god.

Speaker 1

But Snoop Dogg has a hell of a work ethic, and it's very obvious. In this quote, Snoop said, if it's flipping hamburgers at McDonald's, you got to be the best Hamburger flipper in the world. Whatever it is you do, you have to master that craft. I totally understand what he's saying because I was watching a documentary. It was on a prison and John Gotti was in there. And you can love or hate John Gotty. I know he

had to do with a lot of people dying. But as far as gangsters go, in his world, John Gotty made it to the top by whatever you have to do to be the top mob boss out there, and that's a lot of killing, a lot of gangster shit.

Speaker 2

It's not necessarily positive. That's neither here nor there.

Speaker 1

They had John Gotty in prison, they had him mopping floors, and they asked him, they said, how does it feel to be doing such a menial task? And God, he said, well, I am not menial, so nothing I do is a menial task. This is an important task, and I'll do it better than anybody ever did it. That's just a mindset. That's a mindset to whatever I do, I'm the boss set it, I'm the best. And I took that to heart early in life that whatever job you put me in front of, I'm gonna do it better or to

the best of my ability. I'm not gonna get on this podcast and slack. If I agreed to do it, then I'm gonna do it one hundred and ten percent. I don't want to look back and say I could have done that better. No, that's not acceptable. The stuff

we're doing now is gonna last forever. So with Snoop is saying, hey, if that's what your job is at the moment, then you do it to the best you do, not slack because guess what, whatever you move from McDonald's or whatever job you get, you're gonna slack on that too. If that's what you're into, you're a slacker. You're gonna both all of a sudden. You're not gonna become an

expert worker. You're not gonna become a super grinder. The people that do the small jobs to the best of their ability are the ones that's gonna take it far. I just went into business and an animation business with my partner. The reason I got with him is because he was doing extremely great animation with a bullshit computer. In the projects with what he had, he was doing expert and extremely great work. That makes me think, give him a little bit more and what will he do

with that. So whatever you're doing, whatever job it is, maximize it, do it to the best of your ability. Once you get that work ethic, every step you make forward, you're gonna work at it like that and you will be successful. But if you just slack in thinking, oh, I need a better position, then I'll work harder.

Speaker 2

Know you won't.

Speaker 1

You've already defined yourself as a slacker and a bullshitter, and shit ain't gonna get better no matter what position you get put in. But that guy is flipping them burgers like that to the fullest. Give him another job and he'll kill that one too. This has been another ice cold fact from me iced team. Listening again tomorrow when I drop some wisdom on your ass till then, stay safe, stay smart, and stay knowing that, no matter what your craft is, work to be the best ever.
