The School of Greatness · Big Sean: The Scarcity Illusion He Broke for His Family · 20 Jan 2025 podcast

It really just takes being real with yourself and finding out what works for you to be able to tap into the life that you deserve, that you can experience and really enjoy. But it starts with an N. That's the point.

No, not at all.

Not at all.

Well, I'm still making money, so that's another thing. Like, those have nothing to do with each other. You know what I'm saying? There are people who are on all those type of things that are way richer than me, but that don't mean they're more successful than me. People tie all these things together. They be like, oh, because you got... $150 million, do you think you're more successful than me?

It's like that has nothing to do with it. That's just a concept that we tie to that. That just means you have more money than me. That's all that means is that you have more money. That don't mean that you get to me holding my baby. Me going trick-or-treating with my son, that's success. That's successful. That didn't cost me hardly anything.

So it's like you what is people tying everything together and you're going to be a victim of these conditional things like thinking that money is success. Now, success brings does bring money. Success also brings a lot of other things. Success can can bring. But it's not that. And that's what I mean by like separating it all. You know what I mean? So I don't I didn't I didn't tie like.

You know, I used to. I used to be like, oh, this is the reason why I'm successful is because I'm taking this Adderall. You know, yeah. And then that's when I realized I had a problem when I would go to the studio and I couldn't do the studio without taking it. So that's when I had to check myself and be like, no, you know, like that. This don't this isn't right. Like this is I'm here for.

Yes. I talk about that in the book as well. I made agreements with God about one of the agreements I made is that like we talked about financial. I don't want this to be like a big financial episode, but one of the agreements I made is that, yeah, I always – When my son was born, I made an agreement to be the best dad I could be.

Another agreement was that when I'm pursuing my passion or my purpose or having my heart in the right place, that I'll never have to worry. I always have the means needed, no matter what. That's an agreement I made. I never have to worry about

about money or whatever it is you know that has to do deal with that and there are some other ones that are like kind of a little more personal sure yeah no worries but i mean those are very personal too especially my son is as personal as it gets but yeah what was this moment like or moments like where you said god i'm gonna make an agreement with you and did you hear anything in return

I feel like God talks to you in a lot of ways. It's not always where you hear it in that sense. Sometimes you feel it. And feeling it is like hearing it, you know? Like goosebumps, when you get goosebumps. Whatever it is, or something happens in synchronicity with that. There was one time in my life where I heard the voice of God, though. One time. And it wasn't when I was meditating.

It wasn't when I was like... You know, I've done, like, intense meditations, like, on top of mountains and, you know. Or, like, it wasn't when I was, like, peaceful on a walk. It was when I was, like, it was between, it was, like, late at night or early in the morning, rather. And I heard, it's really so personal. I don't even know if I want to share it all the way.

I definitely heard the voice of God. And it said something that resonated. It was a voice I'd never heard before that sounded so familiar. And... It's giving me goosebumps, man. It was, like, very real, and I knew exactly what it was. It wasn't like... Like, I wasn't dreaming. I was very conscious, and I heard it twice. And I got a message, and then I was like, what? And then I got it again.

And it was very loving, but it was very...

heavy and it was very like present it was very clear wow i know was it giving you wisdom or guidance or just kind of like an affirmation from for you to to remember something about yourself or yeah it was like definitely um it was like just part it just was personal that related to me you know and it's something that i'll always remember and always apply and is that when you said i'm gonna make an agreement with you

No, that was another time. So, no, when I set an agreement, you know, God is something you feel more so than something that is like you see. Even though this is all a testament to God, me, us being able to talk, communicate.

You know, you realize that because, yeah, like we get so desensitized. So we're used to life. Until we aren't here no more. You know, you got to remember. So one of the things having a kid taught me is like. The sperm and the egg, you're you're fighting impossible odds. It's like the odds are like a million times crazier than winning the mega millions that are billions.

You know, it's like crazy astronomical odds that you beat to get here, that you fight through, that you get to. And then you're the one that makes it into this into this egg. Right. The one out of all these. hundreds of billions of other options. So you got to realize that on a level, we probably, we fought to be here.

you this is something this is a privilege to be here for real not just saying that trying to sound like positive it's really a privilege to be in this it's like for real and you have to understand that you know we uh we we circum ourselves and get used to this life but it's miraculous every day you see it's like We see the sun give life to all of these things.

We see how everything works in such a system that if one thing was off, if the sun was a little bit closer, if the moon was a little bit closer, we wouldn't be able to survive. If the temperature was a little different, if, you know, Earth could survive, but we couldn't survive. So you got to understand that we're here for a reason. If you're on Earth, you're here for a reason.
