Life Advice and Personal Growth Discussion

advice from you,

just in life and just to, you know, move forward and not to go through certain

things, what would you be able to tell them?

You can't be scared to,

uh...

It's okay to have heart. You can't be scared to show your heart,

but you can't be

s- also scared to let your guard down, bro.

Mm.

Or like,

just basically like,

be kind. Be kind.

Be, be, uh,

be linguent with people you know,

'cause your heart'll get you fucked up, my boy.

Sometime you might show too motch, too much heart,

and sometime you might show too,

like,

less, too, how you say it? Sometime you might show you got too much

heart,

and sometime you might show

less heart, and that goes back to you might put too

much effort into

something or you didn't.

Mm-hmm.

You know?

Um,

man, that's a great question. I'ma tell you like this, bro.

Just be considerate,

you know?

Mm-hmm.

You gotta be willing to forgive at least, like, more than once

because that's really what I, what life really about, too.

On some G shit, bro, and you probably not gonna understand me

right now, but

you gotta find them people who you willing to, like,

g-

receive pain for and go through hurt with, 'cause everybody gonna hurt you.

Mm.

You know?

But you can't walk around like every bitch is out to get you.

Every woman is not out to get you. Like, I be having to, I be telling my wife this,

like, no, no matter what we'll go through, every man is not out to hurt you.

Like, they got good men out here, bruh.

Mm.

Uh,

if I wanted to give anybody advice, man, just tell you this, bruh,

pay attention and focus.

Don't be too hard on yourself. Um, you can tell a lot about a man when he get

stripped out his possessions, right?

Man, I had the world in my hands, like, more than once,

bitch, it get took from me.

I always, like, came from out these dark alleyway, uh,

dying

down off drugs and shit. I'm always ended up in a cell,

and I ain't take

that shit too well.

I'm telling you that as a man. You can tell a lot about a man

when you strip the

nigga out his possessions.

Mm-hmm.

My last go around, I ain't take that shit too well. I cried, man.

I was broken. I was...

'Cause it's like, uh, it, it happened to me at a time where it

really meant the most to me, nigga.

Mm.

You know?

And

bro, I feel like the world had fell on me.

I feel like my whole world that I molded and, and, and

sucked that bitch up the, you know, 'cause I was proud, like it's a trophy.

Man, by the time I looked up, that bitch fell on me, fam.

That bitch fell on me, and I seen a lot of people just treat me

so bad, and I had

to realize, like, that's karma, son.

That's karma, bruh.

And that's from not just making the right decisions, nigga.

You gotta chill.

You gotta chill. You gotta focus.

Mm-hmm.

You gotta know when to put too much effort and

basically put a lot of effort into something, and you gotta know, like,

when it

ain't worth putting a lot of effort. That's my advice to you, bro.

Mm-hmm.

Hold position, nigga. That's it. Hold position.

You gotta know when you putting too much effort.

You gotta know when to put less effort. That's just that.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

That mean a lot.

And just open up, and I feel like

I'm the same way. I'm learning how to-

Thank you, dude

... I'm learning how to, like, you know,

think for others, too, 'cause I feel like I'm mindful,

but I-

You gotta be considerate.

Yeah.

Age, do you feel like age is a real thing with you?

From

16, 17, 20, 21, do you feel like age is a real thing?

Nah, I thought you were finna s- like, talking about women.

I was about to say,

man, what you mean?

No.

I'm saying to yourself, just your journey.

Like, 'cause sometimes do we just feel like know

better in our spirit,

or do you feel like age have changed you, and the older you get, the more you

understand things, or do you just feel like it

was naturally in you?

Yeah, age changed me,

but I say, I say winning,

being successful, nigga, like, receiving achievements, like,

being proud of myself, like,

overcoming certain barriers,

bar- barriers and shit like that.

Mm-hmm. What's some things that you have achieved where you told

yourself like, "I'ma do this. I'ma make this happen"?

'Cause those some things I'm working on.

I'm like, you know, to be a comedian.

I think I've just been going and been thankful

and just trying to be creative, but

I haven't set goals for myself a lot.

I'm, I'm a very natural person, but ha- most of my achievements

came very unexpectedly, and it actually came from hard work, not

knowing that it'll come, but just, like, not giving up on myself and that shit felt

great. I used to tell myself, "Oh, I'll never get, uh,

$100,000 a show." To each show of Mountain

Tour, nigga, I got 1.5.

I ain't get no fucking 500. Nigga, I got 1.5 every show.

Nothing less than 1.2 a night.

Mm-hmm.

I never believed no shit like, I never thought shit like that, um,

I never thought

about actually having a,

my number one album and all that. I always wanted it.

I always said I wanted it, but you'll never, like, actually let,

like,

believe none of that shit, my dude.

I used to tell my wife, I used to tell my wife that I,

I wasn't gonna make

it to see, uh,

21 years old,

and when I was in jail, I, I told her, I said, "I, I feel like I ain't gonna make

it to see 25," and she said, "You remember you used to tell me you

wasn't gonna

make it to 21?"

And it's like-

Mm

... it's always like these, like-

But you, but I know you speak on, like, the, the power of the tongue is real, so

when you speak like that, why do you feel like you put those words

out if you feel

like the power of your tongue is real?

Or just sharing your thoughts with somebody you love?

'Cause that's just how you s- that's just, like,

that was actually, like, the-
