- 0:00Speaker 1: Come on.
- 0:00Speaker 2: Uh-huh.
- 0:04Speaker 1: I sure will. Good morning, everybody. You're listening to The Voice.
- 0:08Speaker 1: Come on, dig me now. One and only Steve Harvey.
- 0:11Speaker 1: Got a radio show. Well, I got to tell you something, everybody.
- 0:17Speaker 1: And this is great news for everybody. That I'll share
- 0:22Speaker 1: something with your principle of becoming successful at whatever level
- 0:28Speaker 1: you choose. It can be successful in a relationship, successful
- 0:33Speaker 1: in a family. Success may be considered to you becoming
- 0:38Speaker 1: a homeowner. It could be being debt-free. Your ideal success
- 0:44Speaker 1: could be $ 60, 000 a year, $ 50, 000 a year, $ 100, 000 a year.
- 0:49Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. If you're considering it, if you're wanting it,
- 0:55Speaker 1: if you have a desire to become successful, I want
- 0:59Speaker 1: to share with you the very beginning of that. If
- 1:02Speaker 1: no one's ever done it, I'm going to say the
- 1:04Speaker 1: beginning of it today.
- 1:06Speaker 2: See, scripture.
- 1:10Speaker 1: Makes it very clear for us that you don't, the
- 1:15Speaker 1: only thing you need to become successful is already inside
- 1:18Speaker 1: of you. It's not an external need.
- 1:22Speaker 2: God wouldn't do that to you.
- 1:25Speaker 1: He puts the core basis of everything you need inside
- 1:30Speaker 1: of you. So if you discover it, if you tend
- 1:34Speaker 1: to it, nurture it, fertilize it and water it, it grows.
- 1:40Speaker 1: It branches out. Then it reaches out externally and it
- 1:44Speaker 1: starts grabbing things outside of there to make it even bigger, stronger, better,
- 1:48Speaker 1: last longer.
- 1:50Speaker 2: But in the very beginning, you don't need anything. It's
- 1:54Speaker 2: all within you. And if you cultivate your relationship with God,
- 1:59Speaker 2: it comes out. It flourishes.
- 2:02Speaker 1: Now, let me tell you, that thing that I'm talking
- 2:05Speaker 1: about is a God-given gift that he has given to
- 2:08Speaker 1: all of us. We all possess it. It is all
- 2:12Speaker 1: within us. Everybody has a gift. Had somebody told me
- 2:18Speaker 1: what I know now, back then, I would have saved
- 2:20Speaker 1: myself tons of mistakes. I just didn't know the principles.
- 2:23Speaker 1: I had to learn them all. Well, one of the
- 2:25Speaker 1: principles of becoming successful is your mindset. You got to
- 2:31Speaker 1: get your mind right. Now, this mindset is simply a
- 2:36Speaker 1: decision that you can make. I can't get it for you.
- 2:41Speaker 1: I can tell you what to do, but you got
- 2:43Speaker 1: to make the decision. You that's listening have to decide,
- 2:47Speaker 1: you know what? I'm going to go on and get
- 2:48Speaker 1: at it. I'm going to stop renting. I'm going to
- 2:50Speaker 1: become a homeowner. You know what I'm going to do?
- 2:52Speaker 1: I'm going to stop living check to check. I'm going
- 2:56Speaker 1: to put a budget together. I'm going to stop stepping
- 3:00Speaker 1: out on my family.
- 3:02Speaker 2: I'm going to go home. I'm going to get it together.
- 3:05Speaker 2: I'm going to stop using. When you make these decisions.
- 3:09Speaker 1: That's correcting your mindset. Now, the closer connection you have
- 3:12Speaker 1: with God, the more help you get sustaining the mindset.
- 3:16Speaker 1: How many times have you started to do something and
- 3:19Speaker 1: you stopped? How many resolutions have you made at the
- 3:22Speaker 1: new year and stopped by February, over with by mid-January,
- 3:27Speaker 1: done in March? Because if you don't have a clear
- 3:32Speaker 1: connection with your creator to help you carry out, the
- 3:36Speaker 1: other force out there that evil force is designed to
- 3:39Speaker 1: get you not to reach your goals, get you not
- 3:42Speaker 1: to come to resolution with whatever the resolutions are you made.
- 3:46Speaker 1: So he can, so you can consider yourself not worthy
- 3:49Speaker 1: or failure or unable.
- 3:52Speaker 2: To do something.
- 3:53Speaker 1: But the more things you are able to accomplish, the
- 3:55Speaker 1: greater your confidence goals grows. So we got to get
- 3:58Speaker 1: your mindset together. Your mindset is a decision that you
- 4:02Speaker 1: have to make. When you make the decision, you can
- 4:04Speaker 1: begin the process. Your mindset is also a wheel of yours,
- 4:09Speaker 1: a wheel along with the decision, a wheel, a willingness
- 4:15Speaker 1: to do right, a willingness to change, a willingness to
- 4:20Speaker 1: be better.
- 4:21Speaker 2: It's going to then.
- 4:23Speaker 1: Cause you to have to make a decision to make
- 4:26Speaker 1: a change of direction.
- 4:28Speaker 2: Don't go where.
- 4:29Speaker 1: Everybody else going. You got to go your way. Now
- 4:32Speaker 1: you can't follow the crowd. You got to take a
- 4:34Speaker 1: less travel path. You cannot do this without changing your direction.
- 4:40Speaker 1: You can't keep hanging with the people you've been hanging
- 4:42Speaker 1: with if you want to be different because they not.
- 4:46Speaker 1: Then you have to develop an obligation to yourself. You've
- 4:51Speaker 1: got to say, you know what, for me and my family,
- 4:55Speaker 1: or if you don't have a family for me, I
- 4:57Speaker 1: owe it to myself. I have an obligation to myself
- 5:00Speaker 1: to be the best me that I can possibly be.
- 5:04Speaker 2: To be the best self that I can possibly be,
- 5:08Speaker 2: to be.
- 5:08Speaker 1: The best father, the best man, the best husband, the
- 5:12Speaker 1: best wife, the best mother, the best daughter, the best son,
- 5:16Speaker 1: the best student, the best employee, the best owner. You
- 5:21Speaker 1: have an obligation to yourself to give yourself a shot
- 5:25Speaker 1: at the best life you can.
- 5:27Speaker 2: That's an obligation.
- 5:29Speaker 1: You owe that to yourself. Why would you not live
- 5:32Speaker 1: the best life that you possibly could? You have an
- 5:34Speaker 1: obligation to yourself. Why would you cheat yourself like that?
- 5:39Speaker 1: Why would you take yourself and never allow yourself to
- 5:42Speaker 1: see the goodness that's already in you to have the
- 5:46Speaker 1: abundance that's been promised to you to go and explore.
- 5:52Speaker 2: All the riches out there that's available to you.
- 5:58Speaker 1: But one of the worst ways that you can rob
- 6:01Speaker 1: yourself of the joy of your obligation is to keep
- 6:04Speaker 1: comparing yourself to somebody else. Because guess what, man? That
- 6:07Speaker 1: ain't your life. You ain't Jay-Z and Beyonce. You're not
- 6:13Speaker 1: Oprah instead, man. That's not who you are. Quit looking
- 6:17Speaker 1: around at everybody else. That comparison of everybody else will
- 6:21Speaker 1: keep you broken. It'll keep you unhappy. You won't even
- 6:25Speaker 1: be able to be grateful for what you have because
- 6:27Speaker 1: you steady talking about what you don't have. That's not
- 6:30Speaker 1: the way, man. You have an obligation to yourself to
- 6:33Speaker 1: be the best you you can be. Not the best them.
- 6:37Speaker 1: You're not them. Stop trying to be them. Be the
- 6:40Speaker 1: best you.
- 6:41Speaker 2: It's cool. You got a nice little house. That's cool.
- 6:44Speaker 1: You know how many big houses is empty and filled
- 6:47Speaker 1: with hate and resentment? I'd rather have a smaller house
- 6:52Speaker 1: filled with joy in it than to go to a
- 6:54Speaker 1: big house. Man, Prince got a line in the song
- 6:57Speaker 1: that says, I realized in his best disguise, a pretty
- 7:02Speaker 1: house don't make a home. Man, don't you know I
- 7:07Speaker 1: know how true that is. So I'm just trying to
- 7:10Speaker 1: tell you. Now, another part of the mindset is taking
- 7:16Speaker 1: dead aim. at your life's goals and ambitions.
- 7:20Speaker 2: What are they? What are your goals and your visions?
- 7:24Speaker 2: What do you see for yourself? What do you dream about?
- 7:28Speaker 2: If you knew you.
- 7:28Speaker 1: Couldn't fail at whatever it is you were attempting, what
- 7:31Speaker 1: would you go attempt? See, that's what we need to
- 7:33Speaker 1: be after. It's a mindset, y'all. It's a decision.
- 7:38Speaker 2: It's a will.
- 7:40Speaker 1: It's a change of direction. It's an obligation to yourself.
- 7:43Speaker 1: It's taking dead aim at your life's visions and goals.
- 7:46Speaker 2: Come on, man.
- 7:48Speaker 1: You got to get your mind wrapped around this thing.
- 7:50Speaker 1: You owe it to yourself to live the best life
- 7:53Speaker 1: you can be.
- 7:54Speaker 2: Come on, man.
- 7:54Speaker 1: Talk to God. God got something for you. You just
- 7:57Speaker 1: got to check in with him.
- 7:58Speaker 2: You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.
