- 0:00Speaker 1: Come on, uh huh, I sure will a good morning
- 0:06Speaker 1: everybody you are listening to the voice, Come on, digny now,
- 0:10Speaker 1: one and.
- 0:10Speaker 2: Only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Okay, today is simple.
- 0:17Speaker 2: I want to tell you. I want to just talk
- 0:21Speaker 2: to you about effort today. Just about effort. You know,
- 0:27Speaker 2: it's it's it's it's a word that people use to
- 0:30Speaker 2: describe sometimes trying. But what I've found out about trying
- 0:36Speaker 2: is trying is just a noble way of saying you
- 0:40Speaker 2: didn't get it done. I tried when and then everybody go, well,
- 0:46Speaker 2: he tried, that was the best.
- 0:48Speaker 3: Well that's that's not.
- 0:50Speaker 2: Exactly true though, that that's that's not exactly true. You
- 0:54Speaker 2: are And I want to talk to you about that
- 0:57Speaker 2: because I don't want you to be one of the
- 0:59Speaker 2: peace people who just tried. See trying, I mean, I
- 1:05Speaker 2: gotta tell you to attempt something. You're gonna have to
- 1:08Speaker 2: first try, But I want you to change your mindset
- 1:14Speaker 2: from trying to getting it done. See, that's a big difference.
- 1:19Speaker 2: I'm really more apt to listen to the person that
- 1:21Speaker 2: says to me, I'm gonna get it done. I'm gonna try.
- 1:25Speaker 2: What try does is it allows you to fail. It's
- 1:28Speaker 2: the person that has the mindset that I'm gonna get
- 1:31Speaker 2: it done. It's the person who changes the complexion of things.
- 1:36Speaker 2: I'm gonna get it done. It's very different than I'm
- 1:39Speaker 2: gonna try.
- 1:41Speaker 3: You know. Look, man, I know this sounds a little.
- 1:43Speaker 2: Harsh, but you gotta stop feeding yourself these little old
- 1:48Speaker 2: wise sayings that ain't it was a valiant tribe. Hey man,
- 1:53Speaker 2: you talk to anybody that took second place in the
- 1:56Speaker 2: super Bowl and see how they feel about their valiant try.
- 2:00Speaker 3: The only way.
- 2:02Speaker 2: To gain God's real blessings is you have to try something.
- 2:10Speaker 3: Steve backpeddaling, Now, listen to me close.
- 2:15Speaker 2: You have to put forth an effort to allow God
- 2:22Speaker 2: to put his finger on something to bless on your behalf.
- 2:27Speaker 2: You must start to attempt now in saying getting it
- 2:32Speaker 2: done and I'm gonna try. That's a difference of two
- 2:35Speaker 2: different faiths. To me, I'm just talking about me.
- 2:39Speaker 3: Now.
- 2:39Speaker 2: You may be different, So I can't say this about you,
- 2:43Speaker 2: but I can say this about me. If I say
- 2:47Speaker 2: I'm gonna get it done, I have a lot of
- 2:50Speaker 2: faith in it. I Am going to get it done
- 2:55Speaker 2: because I just don't see failure as an option A
- 2:58Speaker 2: lot of times now if somebody says to me, like
- 3:02Speaker 2: the Olympic team invited me out to curl one day,
- 3:05Speaker 2: which is throw these stones on the ice, if you're
- 3:08Speaker 2: not familiar with this very simple thing, and so I said, man.
- 3:14Speaker 3: I'd like to give that a try.
- 3:17Speaker 2: I went in full well knowing I may not come
- 3:21Speaker 2: away from this little curling lesson as a person who
- 3:27Speaker 2: could make the Olympic team.
- 3:28Speaker 3: I just wanted to try it because I thought it
- 3:30Speaker 3: looked cool, and I always wanted to get it done.
- 3:32Speaker 2: When I failed twice, I threw a stone completely into
- 3:37Speaker 2: the other lane. I lost that little ice shoe, it
- 3:40Speaker 2: shot out under me. But you know what, I kept
- 3:44Speaker 2: trying though. I kept trying until I got four of
- 3:48Speaker 2: them stones in that circle right where I aim. But
- 3:52Speaker 2: now had I given up after I failed, after I
- 3:57Speaker 2: threw that stone in the other lane, after I shot
- 3:59Speaker 2: my shoe down all the way to the bottom side
- 4:02Speaker 2: of the little ice shoe they give.
- 4:03Speaker 3: You, I never did it.
- 4:05Speaker 2: But because I was trying, something got me together a
- 4:10Speaker 2: little bit because of my effort, and it caused me
- 4:13Speaker 2: not to fall the next time, not to throw it
- 4:15Speaker 2: in the other lane, not to shoot my shoe to
- 4:17Speaker 2: the back of the wall. All of a sudden, my
- 4:21Speaker 2: trying became something. Now had I stayed out there and
- 4:25Speaker 2: it wasn't so cold, and I went.
- 4:27Speaker 3: Back week after week after week after week. I promise
- 4:31Speaker 3: you I could get it done.
- 4:35Speaker 2: I could at least know how to compete in a
- 4:38Speaker 2: game of curling.
- 4:39Speaker 3: Might not be the best.
- 4:41Speaker 2: I might not win the championship, but I could have
- 4:44Speaker 2: got it done to the point where I could have
- 4:46Speaker 2: competed in a game of curling. So sometimes if you're
- 4:49Speaker 2: scared to say I'm gonna get it done, just go
- 4:52Speaker 2: out there and get started, you know, learn from every
- 4:56Speaker 2: attempt that you make. See, don't quit writing yourself off
- 5:00Speaker 2: as a failure every time something don't go right. When
- 5:03Speaker 2: I fail on that ice, I could have said, man,
- 5:05Speaker 2: I can't curl, But hold up, man, I'm watching four
- 5:08Speaker 2: other women out here curl, four of the dudes out
- 5:10Speaker 2: here curl, the little kids out here curling. Hold up, Pardner,
- 5:13Speaker 2: you know, man. So I learned when I threw that
- 5:16Speaker 2: stone on the other ice, when I failed, when when
- 5:19Speaker 2: my shoe shot off, I learned from every attempt a
- 5:23Speaker 2: little bit.
- 5:24Speaker 3: More about it.
- 5:26Speaker 2: And then I said to myself one point in time. Man,
- 5:30Speaker 2: I'm gonna get this stone in that circle. I'm gonna
- 5:33Speaker 2: get this stone in this circle. And guess what I
- 5:37Speaker 2: got it done. Now what you're saying to me, Steve,
- 5:41Speaker 2: I'm saying to you that you gotta get started, That
- 5:44Speaker 2: you got to put forth an effort. Give God something
- 5:46Speaker 2: to bless. Oh God, bless me, Oh God, bless me.
- 5:50Speaker 3: Bless you?
- 5:50Speaker 2: What?
- 5:51Speaker 3: Bless you? Where? Bless you? How?
- 5:54Speaker 2: Stop basing your results on what you're thinking. You gotta
- 5:57Speaker 2: think higher. You get God in your life, man, He
- 6:00Speaker 2: allows you to think higher, bigger, better more. I'm sitting
- 6:06Speaker 2: up in my debt. I came up with a plan
- 6:08Speaker 2: to get out of debt in five years. I came
- 6:10Speaker 2: up with this plan, right, I was sitting up and
- 6:12Speaker 2: I was tripping on it. Now, I said, wait a minute, man,
- 6:15Speaker 2: hold on, this is what I came up with. I said,
- 6:18Speaker 2: God created heaven and earth, all of it, the mountains,
- 6:25Speaker 2: the sky, the valleys.
- 6:27Speaker 3: The oceans, trees, the birds, the Indian Ocean, all of it.
- 6:32Speaker 2: Made all of it in six days, and then he
- 6:37Speaker 2: rested on the seven So why am I taking to
- 6:41Speaker 2: God the five year plan? If he can create heaven
- 6:46Speaker 2: and earth.
- 6:48Speaker 3: In six days.
- 6:49Speaker 2: Why am I walking in there talking about help me
- 6:51Speaker 2: in five years? How is it gonna take God five
- 6:56Speaker 2: years to getting me out of debt?
- 6:59Speaker 3: And he made it in earth in six days? You
- 7:01Speaker 3: the math? Hell, man, I ain't that big. You ain't
- 7:05Speaker 3: that big. You ain't in that much trouble. I ain't
- 7:09Speaker 3: in that much trouble.
- 7:10Speaker 2: See, God got a way of showing you some things, man,
- 7:13Speaker 2: but it's gonna take some faith. And faith gonna take
- 7:15Speaker 2: some effort on your part. Man, get out and do something. Man,
- 7:19Speaker 2: you God will bless you a little bit and he
- 7:21Speaker 2: give you a little bit more courage, and then all
- 7:24Speaker 2: them attempts you making is gonna and all this so
- 7:26Speaker 2: I'll try. You know what that turned into. I'm gonna
- 7:28Speaker 2: get it done. And at the end of the day,
- 7:31Speaker 2: that's what you have to do, because trying to pay
- 7:34Speaker 2: your rent and not paying your rent is two different things.
- 7:37Speaker 2: You can you can try to play your pay your rent,
- 7:40Speaker 2: or you can get it done. Now, how long you
- 7:42Speaker 2: think you gonna stay in that house trying? You got
- 7:45Speaker 2: to go with the mindset of getting it done. And
- 7:47Speaker 2: if you can put some stuff out there and give
- 7:49Speaker 2: God a chance to put his finger on and bless
- 7:51Speaker 2: it for you, the most stuff he can do for you.
- 7:53Speaker 2: Quit looking around what everybody else got, and gonna get
- 7:56Speaker 2: some of it for yourself.
