Icey's Daily Game. It's a production of

0:02

iHeartRadio. What's

0:04

Up Side Tea? You're listening

0:06

to The Daily Game, the compilation

0:08

of motivational quotes I've collected

0:11

over the years that I've found inspiring

0:14

and helped me through the game of

0:16

life. Today's

0:19

quote is about what goes on inside

0:21

your head. A person who

0:23

is book smart and street smart

0:26

is dangerous and will always

0:28

find a way to survive. Don't

0:30

underestimate us. Book

0:34

smart is very important.

0:36

You gotta know what's going on. You gotta understand

0:39

science. You gotta understand your math, you gotta

0:41

understand your history. You need

0:43

to know these things. You know it

0:46

gives you an advantage. Street smart,

0:48

more survival, more about the game,

0:51

more about the slick ways people will pull

0:53

things over on you. A lot of times

0:56

book smart people get taken advantage

0:58

of by street smart people. You

1:00

know, Wow, I didn't know that that was going on.

1:02

I wasn't aware of that, and vice versa.

1:05

A lot of times street smart people will

1:07

get taken advantage by book smart

1:09

people. I didn't know how to read the contract.

1:12

I didn't know I needed a lawyer. I didn't

1:14

know this. I didn't know that when you

1:16

combine them both. This

1:18

person knows how to survive and

1:20

this person knows how to actually

1:23

handle business and understands what comes

1:26

out of these books. There's a term

1:28

people throw around genius,

1:31

but see this is a trick to that

1:33

word genius. Nobody

1:35

is a genius of everything.

1:38

People are geniuses in

1:40

certain categories. Einstein

1:43

was a philosopher into psychology

1:46

and things of that nature, but doesn't

1:48

mean he knew how to make a pizza. You have

1:50

culinary geniuses, you have people

1:52

that are splitting atoms, but that

1:55

person may not have social skills.

1:58

No one is a genius of every People

2:01

are geniuses based on categories.

2:03

That being said, the broader

2:06

you can span your scope as far as

2:08

street and smarts, book, smarts,

2:10

everything, the closer

2:13

to an overall intelligent person,

2:15

you'll be overall intelligent.

2:17

There's people that can do math, that

2:20

can land a rocket on a planet

2:22

in thirty years and do the math

2:25

to make that happen. But that same person

2:27

may not be able to change a car tire. You

2:29

see what I'm saying. So whenever

2:32

someone says they're a genius, say what category

2:34

are they a genius? Okay, so

2:36

I might be a genius as far as the

2:38

streets, there's genius there.

2:41

There's genius as far as people that

2:43

are book smart. But when when you connect

2:46

them together, then you have a dangerous

2:48

person that is smart and knows how

2:50

to survive. And I think that's

2:53

a lot of my listeners out there. This

2:59

has been another ice cold fact from me, Iced

3:01

Tea. Listening again tomorrow

3:04

when I drop some wisdom on your ass till

3:06

then, stay safe, stay smart,

3:08

and stay knowing that being smart in school

3:11

and on the streets it's the fastest

3:13

way to success. ICE's
