  Speaker 2: Steve Harvey got a radio show. Man. Oh man, ain't
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: God good? Yeah?
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: Yes, hey, you know I want to remind everybody today
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: that you got to keep pressing forward.
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: Man.
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: I know it gets difficult out there sometimes, but you
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: got to keep pressing forward. There's nothing else for you
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: to do. The option of quitting, turning back, giving up
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: it cannot be there. The thoughts can pop into your head,
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: but when they do, you got to pray about it.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: But you got to keep pressing forward. You got to
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: keep it moving. Man.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: I don't care how dark and dirty it get for you.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: You got to somehow summon it up within you to
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: keep it moving, to keep pressing forward, because the only
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: way you're gonna get it is you got to stay
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: in the race. You know, you've heard it said a
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: thousand times. The race isn't given to the swift, but
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: to him that end it to the end. You got
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: to stay with it whatever it is. I don't know
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: what it is for you, but whatever it is, you
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: got to stay with it. Because quin don't Quentin don't
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: let you see the end result.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: Give it up.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Don't let you see the end results. Turning back, don't
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: let you see the end. The only way to see
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: the end results is you got to finish the race.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: You got to stay in the race because the victory
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: may be nearer than it seems. There's a poem I
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: learned in college under some stressful situations. I've just said
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: like that. There is a stanza in this poem called
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: Don't Quit that says, often the goal is nearer than
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: it seems to a faint and a faltering man, And
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: often the struggler has given up when he might have
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: captured the victor's cup, and he learns too late, when
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: the night came down, how close he was to the
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: golden crown. Now that's just a stanza in it. The
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: poem is much longer than that. I know though whole thing,
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: because I learned it. But I've always remembered that poem
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: that the the goal is often nearer than it seems
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: to a faint and a faltering man, And oftentimes the
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: struggler has given up when he might have captured the
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: victor's cup, but then he learns too late when the
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: night came down how close he was to the golden crown.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: And there's the last stands of the poem says, it
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: may be near when it seems afar, so stick to
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: the fight when your heart is tit. It's when things
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: seem worse that you mustn't quit. That that poem is
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: really there's an it's an unknown author to the poem,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: so if you want to look it up, it's called
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: don't quit. The author is unknown. They never knew who
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: it was. But you know, I'm talking to you today
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: from the standpoint of encouragement. I won't. I want to
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: show you an analogy that I've tripped on this morning
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: when I was thinking about something I wanted and I
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: was thinking, you know, okay, if you have a job,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: the way you have to do your job, your job
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: forces you to do this, so you can't just randomly
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: do this on your job. A job forces you to
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: plan ahead a little bit. You know. A job requires
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: that you go through the procedures in order for something
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: to happen that you want to happen. Example, you want
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: a vacation, you have to put in for that vacation,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: and that's what it's called. On your job, just put in.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: You may dress it up some other way, but the
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: common sense you have to put in. You got to
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: do that because the job requires it. You got to
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: put in for your vacation. If you want a promotion
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: and you see it post it somewhere that we are
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: now have a position opening, you got to put in
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: for that. You just can't sit back and hope they
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: pick you, because they're probably going to pick the person
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: who wants it, who shows the initiative to go get it.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: So you have to put in for a promotion on
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: a lot of jobs. If you want some days off,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: you got to put in for that. But all of
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: these are things that you want. You want vacations, you
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: want a day off here, and now you want some promotions.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: If you want a.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Raise, you have to go in and request a raise.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: It requires an action on your part on your job.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: And guess what, we've all accepted this as this is
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: the way it's done. You want to raise, you have
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: to put in for a raise. You want to raise,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: you got to go in and have a meeting and
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: take a request so you can show your value to
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: get to raise.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: You want a vacation time, you got to put in
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: for that.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: And then they got to they can tell you, yeah,
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: your name, you want a promotion, same thing, you want
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: some days off, same thing. Okay, that's the deal with
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: your job. Well that's the deal with your life too.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: That exact picture that I paint it for you that
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: you're all so very much aware of that, you're very
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: crystal clear on the rules and regulations that you have
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: no problem following him the same rules for your life.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: What you mean by that, Steve, You got to put
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: in with God. You got to put in for what
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: you want with God all you And it's as simple
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: as that you put in you want some more of this,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: some more that you got to put in with God.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: You put in with your job.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: You go down there and ask that man what you want,
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: and you ain't got no problem following the rules. Well,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: put in with God what you want? What your list?
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: What's your request? What do you really want? How much
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: money you really trying to make? Where you really trying
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: to live? What kind of career and job would you

• 5:29
  Speaker 1: hoping and wishing for? Who is the person you want
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: in your life? What type of person. Do you what's
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: the relationship you're looking for? What you want, you got
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: to put in for that. You got to put in.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: You got to go to God and put in for that. See,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: we'll follow the rules set to us up, set ups
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: up and set up by us in a system. But
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: we simple rules of putting in for your life. Man,
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: we don't even do that. I wish I would put
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: in for a job and not put in for God.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: You gotta be kidding me. You think this man that
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: has this company can has more to offer to you
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: in terms of vacation, promos and raisers. Then God got
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: for you for your life. Man, you keep putting too
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: much faith in Man, that's what's wrong with us. I
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: show hope he give me his raise.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: I'll show I.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: Don't even go to people with that. I go to
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: God about it. Then God touched them people's hearts. Then
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: when I walk in there, it's already done. That's how
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: you capture this thing, folks. It's not a magic trick.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: It's just a real simple understanding. Why would you not
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: put in with God if you're gonna put in on
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: your job, that don't make no sense. Where you get
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: the job from where your job, where your boss get
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: his position from? Where did this company come from? So
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: when you peel back to but now that it all
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: make a lot.
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: Of sense, don't it? It really does? And I'm just
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: a common sense god.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: You know. Look, I don't have the education that a

  Speaker 1: lot of people have, but I gotta show show enough
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: bunch of life experience though Oh I've been I've been

  Speaker 1: but I got news for you. It ain't the one
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: I thought I was gonna have until I put in
• 7:02

  Speaker 1: put in for it. And you know, as I saw
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: it shaping and forming, and I said, God, could that
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: really be happening? I wonder if you could make me this, Lord,
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: I was wondering, Man, could I really have a syndicated
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: radio show? Lord, make it happen. If it's in your wheel,
• 7:19

  Speaker 1: of it. See, But then God tells you that too.
