- 0:00Speaker 1: Come on you. Ah huh, I sure will. Good morning
- 0:05Speaker 1: everybody you are listening to the voice, Come on dig
- 0:09Speaker 1: me now. One and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Man.
- 0:15Speaker 1: If y'all only knew, I think I'll tell it to
- 0:18Speaker 1: you this morning. Man started off real crazy. But it's
- 0:22Speaker 1: just those little mishaps where we as people who are
- 0:27Speaker 1: striving to be successful, that makes all the difference in
- 0:31Speaker 1: the world. When you have those little minor things that
- 0:34Speaker 1: come up, you can't let the minor things stop you.
- 0:38Speaker 1: You've got to keep pressing forward. Now. Could I have
- 0:41Speaker 1: played the role of where is my car? Where is
- 0:45Speaker 1: my car? Oh? Where is my car? Instead of hustling
- 0:50Speaker 1: and grab a cab? So what am i? Am I
- 0:53Speaker 1: above a cab ride now? Or do I have to
- 0:57Speaker 1: look at the bigger picture and say, okay, I could
- 0:59Speaker 1: act like a little spoil brat some type of star
- 1:02Speaker 1: and go I don't ride in cabs or where's my car?
- 1:05Speaker 1: And then go to blaming people for not having a car.
- 1:08Speaker 1: Or do I make the adjustments because ain't like I
- 1:10Speaker 1: ain't been in a cab before? Now, slow down, Ain't
- 1:12Speaker 1: like I ain't never been in a in a beat
- 1:15Speaker 1: up car before? Slow down. Ain't ever like I ain't
- 1:18Speaker 1: never had a car and rode a bus before. Slow down,
- 1:22Speaker 1: ain't like I ain't never been homeless before, and aint
- 1:24Speaker 1: have nowhere to go? Slow down. So in those moments
- 1:28Speaker 1: right there, always remember where you come from, but even
- 1:32Speaker 1: more importantly, always remember where you trying to go, because
- 1:36Speaker 1: it's important for me that I get here as many
- 1:39Speaker 1: mornings as I possibly can. It's important because that's the goal.
- 1:43Speaker 1: And so many people allow a minor things to stop
- 1:46Speaker 1: them on their road to success. And I'm giving you
- 1:49Speaker 1: this example today not to say, hey, look at me,
- 1:53Speaker 1: but to say to you, hey, listen to me. There
- 1:55Speaker 1: are going to be a lot of things that's gonna
- 1:57Speaker 1: happen along your way to being successful. And if you
- 2:00Speaker 1: allow the small things to stop you, there's no way
- 2:02Speaker 1: you'll make it. You've got to always press forward and
- 2:05Speaker 1: stop looking at the situation for what it is, and look,
- 2:08Speaker 1: sometimes you have to take your eye off right now
- 2:10Speaker 1: and put your eye in the future. You know, God
- 2:12Speaker 1: has blessed me in so many ways. I mean, what
- 2:15Speaker 1: can I say? You know, I ask God for this
- 2:17Speaker 1: syndicator show. He gives me a syndicated show. Niact like
- 2:20Speaker 1: I don't want to come to it. Hold on, man,
- 2:22Speaker 1: slow down. Did not you ask for this? Do I
- 2:26Speaker 1: not realize that there are certain people, man, who look
- 2:28Speaker 1: forward to this message in the morning. I've heard it
- 2:32Speaker 1: from people, so from the hundreds that I've heard it for,
- 2:36Speaker 1: that could represent thousands for all I know. So if
- 2:40Speaker 1: I think somebody's counting on me, I got to try
- 2:42Speaker 1: to get there and give something. So today I didn't
- 2:45Speaker 1: have any time at all to think about what I
- 2:47Speaker 1: might say. I just walk right in and the jingle
- 2:50Speaker 1: was playing, and so I decided to just tell you
- 2:52Speaker 1: about my day and maybe you can relate it to
- 2:55Speaker 1: something you going through along the way, Because no matter
- 2:57Speaker 1: who you are, you're going to have some moment man,
- 3:00Speaker 1: where things are going to happen. And like I always
- 3:03Speaker 1: tell my kids, and I just had this conversation with
- 3:05Speaker 1: my little girl, it ain't that things ain't gonna happen.
- 3:08Speaker 1: It's how you handle what happens that matters. But it
- 3:12Speaker 1: don't matter. It's how you handle what happens that's the
- 3:16Speaker 1: determining factor on where you get in life and how
- 3:19Speaker 1: soon you get there and how long you stay there.
- 3:22Speaker 1: That will always be a mishap. Something that's gonna throw
- 3:27Speaker 1: you off. There will always be something man that could
- 3:30Speaker 1: deter you. That will be something somewhere man that will
- 3:34Speaker 1: make you doubt it. Now that you know that's gonna happen,
- 3:38Speaker 1: then let's talk about how you handle what happens, because
- 3:41Speaker 1: it's going to happen. So now, what do you do
- 3:44Speaker 1: as a person when these moments come about in your life?
- 3:47Speaker 1: How do you handle? Oh? Woe is me? Oh, I
- 3:51Speaker 1: guess it wasn't meant to be. Well. If the Lord
- 3:54Speaker 1: wanted me to have this, I'd have that. How many
- 3:57Speaker 1: damn many times you hear people say that, You know
- 4:00Speaker 1: it really irks me. Man, Stop using God as your excuse.
- 4:05Speaker 1: God ain't no excuse. God is a reason. He's a
- 4:09Speaker 1: reason why the good happens. He's a reason. He's not
- 4:14Speaker 1: an excuse. God don't have no excuses, and none of
- 4:18Speaker 1: his scriptures or writings not that He just don't make excuses.
- 4:22Speaker 1: I would have done this. But you know there's a
- 4:26Speaker 1: scripture that says the poor will all shall always be
- 4:29Speaker 1: amongst us. Why that's got to be you. Yeah, he
- 4:32Speaker 1: said the poor will always be amongst us, Because you
- 4:35Speaker 1: know everybody ain't gonna follow the principles of success. But
- 4:38Speaker 1: he also said he came to give you life and
- 4:40Speaker 1: give it to you more abundantly. He said that too,
- 4:43Speaker 1: But oh no, you don't want to hear that because
- 4:45Speaker 1: your life kind of trip it out a little bit.
- 4:47Speaker 1: So now what you do with it? Now you twist
- 4:49Speaker 1: it and you go to that one little scripture that say, well,
- 4:53Speaker 1: the poor shall always be amongst us. Well, that's put
- 4:56Speaker 1: in there because that suggests in case, see that's a
- 5:00Speaker 1: just in case y'all don't want to follow the scriptures.
- 5:04Speaker 1: That's just in case you don't understand that faith without
- 5:07Speaker 1: works is dead. That's just in case you have not
- 5:11Speaker 1: because you ask. Now, it's just in case you don't believe,
- 5:15Speaker 1: and shall not doubt he got all that in that.
- 5:17Speaker 1: But in case you don't want to do that, there
- 5:20Speaker 1: is a scripture that tells you what will happen if
- 5:22Speaker 1: you don't do it, And here it is the poor
- 5:24Speaker 1: shall always be amongst us. But then you get that
- 5:27Speaker 1: when they say, well, that's I guess that's the Lord's will.
- 5:30Speaker 1: Lord's will, really, really, really really that's amazing. I just
- 5:36Speaker 1: don't believe that about him. I don't believe that God
- 5:40Speaker 1: created your life. To be a life of misery. I
- 5:43Speaker 1: think that we make decisions along the way that cause
- 5:47Speaker 1: us to have lives of misery. But I really really
- 5:51Speaker 1: just don't believe that God created you for that. I've
- 5:57Speaker 1: heard Nelson Mandela speak, and you know you gotta go.
- 6:01Speaker 1: While all those years in prison, man, what was it about.
- 6:05Speaker 1: When you hear him speak, you understand what it was about.
- 6:09Speaker 1: He said, he always knew he would be free one day.
- 6:13Speaker 1: Now what he said he never knew was he said,
- 6:16Speaker 1: he never knew that he would be the president of
- 6:19Speaker 1: that country. Oh my goodness, what a long way around.
- 6:25Speaker 1: But he could have set there and got involved in
- 6:28Speaker 1: prison activities that wasn't up to Paw and things like that.
- 6:33Speaker 1: And they said whenever young inmates used to come in.
- 6:35Speaker 1: He was telling the story one time of how young
- 6:37Speaker 1: inmates used to come into the prison. They all sit
- 6:40Speaker 1: around and talk to him about what they were doing
- 6:42Speaker 1: and how many kids they had in their lives, and
- 6:44Speaker 1: it helped them keep track of it outside a little bit,
- 6:47Speaker 1: and it kept a sense of time for them, and
- 6:50Speaker 1: it reminded me to talk about what they left behind,
- 6:53Speaker 1: and it kept them going because something was greater on
- 6:57Speaker 1: the other side. Had he allowed that to stop him.
- 7:01Speaker 1: Had he allowed the imprisonment, which is a pretty major deal. Oh,
- 7:04Speaker 1: by the way, then guess what he would have never
- 7:07Speaker 1: been the Nelson Mandela that we know today, a martyr,
- 7:10Speaker 1: a leader, a great force. People want to go around him.
- 7:14Speaker 1: Even people that imprisoned him could not understand his staunch strength,
- 7:19Speaker 1: his faith, his unwavering commitment. They couldn't understand it. So
- 7:24Speaker 1: things are going to happen in your life, but it's
- 7:26Speaker 1: how you handle what happens doesn't matter. So keep pushing, y'all.
- 7:29Speaker 1: Don't let the little things get in the way, Okay,
- 7:31Speaker 1: And if you just sometimes you just don't know. I
- 7:34Speaker 1: got in a cab thinking I wasn't gonna make it,
- 7:36Speaker 1: but at least let's go see, let's try. I made it. Now.
- 7:40Speaker 1: Guess what that gives me? Another piece of information that
- 7:43Speaker 1: I have and all I had to see it again today?
- 7:46Speaker 1: Guess what I said today? Man, sometime when it looked
- 7:49Speaker 1: like you ain't gonna make it, just go ahead on anywhere. Now.
- 7:52Speaker 1: I could still be back there at the hotel talking
- 7:54Speaker 1: about where my car, but I got up in here
- 7:56Speaker 1: made it. So now what y'all gonna do with it?
- 7:58Speaker 1: Let's go listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.
