Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: All right, guys, here we are our last break of
- 0:02Speaker 1: the day. Steve, you want to take us home with something, Hey,
- 0:05Speaker 1: I got some clothing remarks for you. Real simple here,
- 0:09Speaker 1: it is work, hard work. There is no substitute for it,
- 0:17Speaker 1: hard work. Now you hear people say I'd rather work
- 0:21Speaker 1: smart than work hard, There is no substitute for hard work.
- 0:25Speaker 1: If you're gonna work smart, you're gonna have to work
- 0:28Speaker 1: hard at being smart. There is no substitute for hard work.
- 0:33Speaker 1: You can't replace. It. Ain't no quick, easy way. You
- 0:38Speaker 1: got to work hard, man. Accept that and understand that,
- 0:42Speaker 1: and make that one of your disciplines. Hard work replaces
- 0:49Speaker 1: a lot. I know a lot of people who are
- 0:52Speaker 1: more talented than me, but and now one of them
- 0:57Speaker 1: go outwork me. So I've managed to forge myself a
- 1:01Speaker 1: pretty good life. And I've gotten this pretty good life
- 1:06Speaker 1: not because of just my talent, but because my work ethic.
- 1:14Speaker 1: It's not up for question. You cannot ever question my
- 1:18Speaker 1: work ethic. You think he'll be here, you think he'll
- 1:23Speaker 1: do it. Suppose he don't show up where he act today?
- 1:27Speaker 1: Uh uh uh uh. That ain't the question. Because I
- 1:34Speaker 1: was raised with the work ethic, and it supersedes talent. Man,
- 1:40Speaker 1: you can be talent, but if you ain't got the
- 1:42Speaker 1: work ethic, man, it ain't gonna work. It just ain't
- 1:45Speaker 1: gonna work, y'all. Now, if I could couple anything with
- 1:51Speaker 1: my hard work, you know what the two things that
- 1:54Speaker 1: would if you couple it with discipline and faith. If
- 2:00Speaker 1: you take hard work and you couple it with discipline
- 2:03Speaker 1: and faith, oh Lord have mercy, you unstoppable. But the
- 2:08Speaker 1: discipline is critical because even if you're willing to work hard,
- 2:13Speaker 1: what about the days when you don't feel like it?
- 2:15Speaker 1: What about the days when you ain't up to it?
- 2:17Speaker 1: What about the days where something happened and you was
- 2:20Speaker 1: supposed to work, but you something happened. No discipline says
- 2:25Speaker 1: I gotta work anyway. Discipline says I gotta do this anyway.
- 2:30Speaker 1: Discipline is doing what you have to do even when
- 2:34Speaker 1: you don't want to. And then if you put faith
- 2:38Speaker 1: in that faith some prayer, boy, boy, you unstoppable. That's
- 2:46Speaker 1: really the explanation behind all of my success. Oh I'm
- 2:51Speaker 1: a word. I'm a hard worker, and make no mistake
- 2:54Speaker 1: about that, And I'm disciplined. Where I'm gonna go to work.
- 2:57Speaker 1: You don't have to look for me, but they the
- 3:00Speaker 1: key factor on Lord, have mercy, my faith, my belief
- 3:05Speaker 1: in things that I cannot see, my belief that prayer
- 3:09Speaker 1: changes things, that prayer is available to everybody. That prayer
- 3:16Speaker 1: and faith allows me a measure of peace that's undescribable
- 3:22Speaker 1: because I know that God is working on my behalf.
- 3:26Speaker 1: It allows me to have immeasurable peace that I can
- 3:30Speaker 1: sit somewhere in the storm and look like it's aok
- 3:35Speaker 1: because I know my God gonna fix it and it
- 3:38Speaker 1: will be a okay. Oh it might not be ao
- 3:40Speaker 1: okay right now, but that don't mean it ain't gonna
- 3:44Speaker 1: be man, Please, hard work, discipline and faith. Whew. You
- 3:57Speaker 1: can do a lot of things better than Steve Harvey.
- 4:00Speaker 1: But you can't outwork me, though I bet you that.
- 4:03Speaker 1: I bet you you can't. You ain't gonna outwork me.
- 4:09Speaker 1: You ain't gonna put forth more effort than me. You're
- 4:13Speaker 1: not gonna be more disciplined about it than me. So now, now,
- 4:17Speaker 1: if you end up with more than me, then congratulations.
- 4:23Speaker 1: That's your lot in life, just like this is my
- 4:27Speaker 1: life in life. You know when my life is over,
- 4:31Speaker 1: you know what I'm gonna be able to say, when
- 4:34Speaker 1: I'm laying there looking at my last minutes of hours,
