I See's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's up to size Team? You're listening to? The Daily Game a compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that I found inspiring and helped me through the game of life. Today's quote comes from someone I call a good friend, Henry Rollins, and I go way back. Many of you would never think that two people to look so different on the outside could actually have so much
in common, but we do. I mean, I met Henry Rollins for the first time on Lalapalooza, and you know, we were out there with them, and I would watch Henry warm up off of Terror Dome. He would listen the Public Enemy and get hyped for his set, and he had this big tattoo on his back to say seek and destroy. I'm like, who is this wild motherfucker jumping around barefoot on stage. I also knew that he had sunk with Black Flag and he was really the
epitome of hardcore lead singer. And we started to vibe together out on that tour, and since then we've become very close friends because we think pretty much along the same lines. Henry's quote is strength is the product of struggle. You must do what others don't to achieve what others won't. A lot of times, the strongest people you know have been through the hardest struggles you can't even imagine. They've been through it and they've come out stronger than before.
People say, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. It does, but it also can leave a bruise. Going through hardship can also damage you too. You have to be able to pull out the other side of it for it to make you stronger. Some things really damage people permanently. But when you find somebody who is able to make it through that struggle and come out on the other side, now they're cut different. They've been through something that you haven't.
And that's where a lot of people earn their stripes and they get that level of intensity. A lot of times people will meet me and they be like, Wow, you handle that so easily. You were able to go through that, it didn't bother you. I'm like, well, you have no idea what I've been through. This is light shit compared to anything. It's kind of like when you're in the military, they train you to go through extreme adversity so that when you come upon adversity, it doesn't
seem that intense. So strength is a product of struggle. Going through a struggle will make you stronger, and it makes you ready to deal with it again because it's not the first time. If you want to see somebody that's not strong, find somebody that's never been through any struggles the first little thing they lose their mind about. I mean, I've been out in snow in New York
City and it's been you know, zero degrees. But when I was in the service, I was in Korea it was thirty two below zero and we were sleeping in you know, tense. So by having that struggle ahead of me, gone through that, I can deal with the zero degrees here. I'm like, well, I'm not gonna say it's a summer day, but I've been through something worse. I like this quote,
you must do what others do to achieve what others won't. Yeah, you have to be able to put in a little bit more work or way more work than other people if you want to get that result. This has been another ice cold fact from me ice Tea. Listening again tomorrow when I drop some wisdom on your ass till then stay safe, stay smart. It's stay knowing that when you find yourself up against it, nine times out of
ten will emerge a better person because of it. Icy Daily Game is a production of iHeartRadio, Final Level Entertainment and Oddity, an Asylum entertainment company.
