I See's Daily Game. It's a production of

0:02

iHeartRadio. What's

0:04

Up Size Team? 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

Daily Game, I want to talk to you about your

0:21

worth. Easy access

0:24

depreciates your value.

0:29

I've been in the business a long time and a

0:31

lot of times people are.

0:32

Trying to get at me, saying

0:35

you're busy.

0:35

If they know that it's really business,

0:38

that makes them understand that

0:41

you're not cheap. I used to have a

0:43

friend who is a player, and

0:45

he taught me early. Your name was Michael

0:47

Carter. He said, never hang around

0:50

people too long. Always have somewhere to

0:52

go. Even if you don't got somewhere

0:54

to go, act like you got somewhere

0:56

to go, because people always think

0:59

you have nothing to do, and they'll say, what damn

1:01

you hanging around here?

1:02

You got nothing to do? What's

1:05

going on? So he would always be like, oh,

1:07

and it's Steff timmoths Man. I got to go and

1:09

guess what.

1:10

That made the time he spent with us more

1:12

valuable because he had

1:15

to create it in our mind that he

1:17

didn't.

1:17

Have a lot of free time.

1:20

So in my life I've

1:22

had people really try to get work out

1:24

of me.

1:24

And unless I'm booked, I'm booked, I'm booked.

1:26

It was funny.

1:27

One of my friends was trying to get at

1:29

Questlove and he called Questlove

1:31

and quest Love said, I'm booked till

1:34

twenty twenty four and my man.

1:36

Was like damn.

1:37

I'm like wow, And it just

1:39

felt like he was more valuable, like Damn,

1:41

I can't I'm booked for the next year

1:45

now. Anything as far as

1:47

access, you just don't.

1:49

Need to make yourself so available.

1:55

This has been another ice cold fact from me ice

1:57

Tea. Listening again tomorrow

2:00

when I drop some wisdom on your ass till

2:02

then, stay safe, stay smart,

2:04

and say knowing that the more people have to work

2:06

to gain access to you, the

2:09

more they will value what you bring.

2:11
