I See's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's Up to Sights 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 is something I say a lot when people ask me about the path to success, especially

in the entertainment industry. I can't tell you how many deals I've seen fall through at the eleventh hour, how many so called short things don't see the light of day. So listen up. Success is like being pregnant. Everyone says congratulations, but nobody knows how many times you've been fucked. Now that's a joke, but it's true. You know, a woman is pregnant and everyone's saying congratulations, but you don't really know how many times he's had sex. So that's the

funny part. Turn it around to success. Yeah, everyone's saying congratulations, but they don't know what you've been through. They don't know how many deals fell through, they don't know how many attempts you've had at this particular success, the trials and tribulations, and we say fucked on this side we're not talking about great sex. We're talking about getting fucked over. And when you make it, it all looks good and people are like, oh, it's so great, it's so great.

But the battle wounds that you've suffered. That's why a lot of times successful people and people come to them for advice, they don't even want to give it up freely because they're like, shit, I went through so much to get here. I don't even know you well enough to give you the game. They don't give it out freely because it's mostly earned in war. So yeah, I don't really know anybody that I've met that have had a smooth ride to where they are. And that's how

it goes. You know, it looks easy, of course when you make it, when you summit that mountain and you're at the top of that mountain, it looks easy, but nobody was there watching the climb. They didn't see that how you had to sleep on the side of the mountain and you slipped and you fell, and you know, some of your friends didn't make the climb. But of course it's a great view from up there, and everybody's

happy for you. This has been another ice cold fact from me iced tea, listening again tomorrow when I dropped some wisdom on your ass till then, Stay safe, stay smart, and stay knowing that what might have looked like an easy ride up the ladder, it wasn't easy at all.
