I See's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's Up to SiZ 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. Today's quote comes from Voltaire, a French writer and one of the most influential philosophers from the eighteenth century. Judge a man by his questions rather than his answers.

When you find yourself in a group of people and they're talking, pay attention to the people who are answering the questions. Those are the people that are really usually three steps ahead. They're just trying to get more information because they're really about to play this game to the fullest. The person answering the questions is probably the one in there trying to act like they're smart or they seem to know all the answers already. But when you deal

with people, listen to the questions they're asking you. When I deal with new artists and they sit in front of me and they're inquisitive about the game, I can tell who's going to win just by the way they approach me. Do they have it not the ones that sit in front of me and act like they know it already, they got it all. They're embarrassed to ask

a question. The ones that really pick my brain, the ones that really pick my brain in my career, have also become the ones that have been the most successful because they're the most inquisitive. They're the ones seeking out information that they don't know, and they also know that right now is the time to get it, and they're around somebody that doesn't mind handing it over to them.

Think about this the next time you're dealing with somebody and they're asking you a lot of questions and they want to know about how your businesses run or some of the fine points in your success, those people are going to win because they want to know the path to where you are or they're trying to go. 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, say, knowing that the ones who are inquisitive are usually the smartest ones in the room.
