I See's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's Up to SiZ Team. You're listening to The Daily Game a compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that I've found inspiring and help me through the game of life. Today we're celebrating the unofficial end of summer with Labor Day. Kick your feet up, spend some time with family and friends, and enjoy yourself. Today's quote comes from Voltaire, a French writer and one of the most
influential philosophers from the eighteenth century. Each player must accept the cards life deals him or her, but once they are in hand, he or she must decide to play the cards in order to win the game. So, in other words, you don't have a choice. What race you are. You don't have a choice. What sex you are. You don't have a choice. Whether you were born into affluence or poverty, you don't have a choice. It has to
do with your parents. Once your dealt is hand, it's up to you to play the hand to the best of your ability. Some people are dealt four aces and still fuck it up. Some people are dealt bad hands, like myself, and have managed to figure a way to survive in the game. It doesn't matter what hand you've been dealt. If you're a player, you're going to figure the best way to play those cards so you can
win the game. And nobody can control that deck because at birth, when you're coming out, you don't know where you're coming out. As far as this deal, all I can say is that if you want to believe in yourself, look at all the players who've been dealt bad hands that have managed to come out successful and on top. One time I was doing research, and you know, I'm an orphan, and I realize that a great percentage of
the billionaires in the world were orphans. Maybe that made them realize that there was no one to fall back on. That's one of the things that it motivated my hustle. But I always said, you know, for me being black coming out of the mud, the game is going to be extra hard. But I said, I'm that much of a better player than everybody, so that kind of leveled the field. This has been another ice code 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 in the game of Life. No one controls the deck I Sees Daily Game.
