- 2:25Speaker 2: But do you understand that it's prohibiting you from moving forward?
- 2:29Speaker 1: Stop complaining today, catch fire, Let your pass be your past.
- 2:33Speaker 1: I've told this to you one hundred times on this radio,
- 2:35Speaker 1: but I'm gonna say it again. Bishop Jakes told me
- 2:38Speaker 1: something man that helped me so greatly. You can't drive
- 2:43Speaker 1: your car if you gonna keep looking in the rear
- 2:46Speaker 1: view mirror. That's why the windshield is huge. The windshield
- 2:52Speaker 1: is huge. The rear view mirror is this tiny thing
- 2:56Speaker 1: that sits up there. Now all is far. It's so
- 2:59Speaker 1: you can see stuff that's coming.
- 3:01Speaker 2: Up on you.
- 3:02Speaker 1: All the realview mirror for is so you can assure yourself, Oh,
- 3:07Speaker 1: listen to this. The rearview mirror is imp there to
- 3:10Speaker 1: assure you that you've cleared something. See. That's what the
- 3:14Speaker 1: rearview mirrors for. So when you pass the can you
- 3:17Speaker 1: want to switch lanes, you can glance up there and
- 3:19Speaker 1: it says, okay, you're clear. Now you passed it, you
- 3:23Speaker 1: can switch lanes. That's all the rearview mirrors for. It
- 3:26Speaker 1: ain't for you to stare at and dictate your life
- 3:29Speaker 1: with what you're tripping for.
- 3:30Speaker 2: Man, catch fire today today.
- 3:34Speaker 1: Man, quit complaining about everything that did happened to you.
- 3:38Speaker 1: Life is ten percent. What happens to you is ninety percent.
- 3:41Speaker 1: What you do about what happens to you. What are
- 3:43Speaker 1: you going to do about it? So what I got
- 3:48Speaker 1: all this? Look, man, your story ain't no deeper than
- 3:50Speaker 1: nobody else's. I can tell you I was homeless for
- 3:53Speaker 1: three years. It's people been homeless for thirty years.
- 3:58Speaker 2: How long I'm gonna ride that out?
- 4:00Speaker 1: Man?
- 4:00Speaker 2: You know I can't do nothing right now. I fell
- 4:03Speaker 2: on hard times and I lost my place to stay.
- 4:06Speaker 1: Where you staying now? See the majority of people are
- 4:11Speaker 1: staying somewhere right now. I was out there. I didn't
- 4:14Speaker 1: have nowhere to go. I'm in a shelter now. You
- 4:17Speaker 1: was under the bridge a week ago. You int shelter.
- 4:20Speaker 2: Now? Why you still crying about the bridge? You in
- 4:24Speaker 2: a shelter now? Man.
- 4:28Speaker 1: You know how you find your purpose? You get in
- 4:31Speaker 1: touch with who created you. Because when God made you,
- 4:37Speaker 1: he had a purpose in mind. Now we've ignored it
- 4:40Speaker 1: and we haven't tapped into it. But we all had
- 4:43Speaker 1: a purpose. You don't, and it's sometimes it takes people
- 4:45Speaker 1: longing to discover the purpose. Colonel Sanders was frying chicken
- 4:51Speaker 1: with a recipe that he was telling people was the
- 4:54Speaker 1: best chicken in the world. Ain't nobody believe him till
- 4:57Speaker 1: he turned seventy? Why you think the dude, that's only
- 5:02Speaker 1: Kentucky fried chicken signs is old. That dude ain't twenty
- 5:07Speaker 1: up there he oh he oh, But you know what,
- 5:11Speaker 1: he had been frying that chicken for forty some years.
- 5:17Speaker 1: They just found out about it when he was seventy.
- 5:21Speaker 1: But he didn't give up his purpose in life. This
- 5:24Speaker 1: dude was just frying chicken. See, people keep looking for
- 5:27Speaker 1: their gifts in all kinds of places when it's right
- 5:30Speaker 1: there in you. You ain't got to go to school
- 5:32Speaker 1: to find your gift. You're born with the gift that
- 5:35Speaker 1: God got for you. You'll go to school to tack
- 5:38Speaker 1: it on to something else, But your gift was already
- 5:41Speaker 1: given to you.
- 5:42Speaker 2: You were born with that. You don't have to go
- 5:44Speaker 2: to college to know your gift.
- 5:45Speaker 1: Your college allows you to enhance it and to find
- 5:48Speaker 1: something to attach it to, and hopefully you get a
- 5:50Speaker 1: degree that attaches your gift to a vehicle where.
- 5:54Speaker 2: It can work.
- 5:55Speaker 1: The problem with college is we go to college and
- 5:58Speaker 1: we attach it to what we like, what we might
- 6:00Speaker 1: be passionate about, if we ignore the gift we have.
- 6:03Speaker 1: You know how many people and graduating from college ain't
- 6:05Speaker 1: doing nothing they went to college for. Come on, man.
- 6:08Speaker 1: You know why, because you discover in life your gift.
- 6:11Speaker 1: You discover what you was born to do. I wasn't
- 6:14Speaker 1: bought you know what I mean? You know what my
- 6:15Speaker 1: major was in college? It was advertising. I can't be
- 6:19Speaker 1: at no death, drawing, no picture for nobody. But now
- 6:22Speaker 1: guess what I can wake up every day and guess
- 6:24Speaker 1: what I can tell you. I advertise. I've been advertising
- 6:28Speaker 1: my career. Come see me live. Come see me live
- 6:31Speaker 1: at Madison Square, guard Come see me live at Phillips Aerena.
- 6:34Speaker 1: Come see me live at Jokers Comedy Club. Come see
- 6:37Speaker 1: me live at Percy's. Come see me live at elisis Tabit.
- 6:41Speaker 1: Come see me live. I've been advertising the whole time,
- 6:45Speaker 1: but I had a different purpose in mind because I
- 6:48Speaker 1: went and I talked to God. And this is how
- 6:50Speaker 1: you do it. You go talk to God and say,
- 6:52Speaker 1: hey God, look, okay, this is the deal. I've been
- 6:55Speaker 1: struggling here. I'm over forty. I still haven't found a
- 7:00Speaker 1: purpose in life. Okay, but so I can quit wasting
- 7:03Speaker 1: any more time. Would you help direct me and guide
- 7:06Speaker 1: me to my purpose. I know you created me to
- 7:09Speaker 1: do something. I just haven't found what it is and
- 7:12Speaker 1: the reason I haven't found what it is because I've
- 7:14Speaker 1: been doing things my way. I ain't been checking with your,
- 7:17Speaker 1: conferring with you on anything. I ain't locked in. I
- 7:20Speaker 1: tried to settle it up with you. I've been just
- 7:22Speaker 1: doing my thing. Well, my thing has gotten me as
- 7:25Speaker 1: far as it can get me. How about you take
- 7:27Speaker 1: over and do your thing now? Can you direct me
- 7:30Speaker 1: in my path? I'm an open book. Treat me like
- 7:34Speaker 1: a piece of clay. I'm telling you, man, if you
- 7:37Speaker 1: go to God, he'll give it to you. But see
- 7:39Speaker 1: you have not because you ask not. How many times
- 7:44Speaker 1: have you asked God for it? This ain't no magic trick, y'all.
- 7:49Speaker 1: This is the deal. You got to catch fire today.
- 7:53Speaker 1: Catch fire today, I am. I'm excited about today. I've
- 7:56Speaker 1: got a lot to do.
