  Speaker 1: Come on you, Uh huh, I sure will. Good morning everybody,
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: you all listening to the voice, come on dig me now,
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: One and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Man,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: old man, oh Man symbolizes just one thing to me. Man,
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: It's just a constant remind of exactly how good God
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: has been to me over the years. And I'm thanking
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: for it too, because I realize every day that I
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: wake up that I would be nothing without Him. That
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: everything I am, that's any good in me, I owe
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: to him. Now. Have I made some mistakes along the way? Yep, bunches,
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: bunches and bunches. And will I continue to make mistakes
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: along the way? Yep? Not as many, hopefully as I
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: have in the past, because a lot of stuff I
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: know better now. But you're still going to make mistakes now,
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: you know. Hopefully I've limited then of intentional errors in
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: my life. I've wiped quite a few of those out,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: but from time to time, because we're human, we're going
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: to make a mistake every now and then. The trick,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: what it is, y'all, is not to let the devil
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: deceive you into thinking that once you make that mistake
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: that that's it. You can't do it. You're falling off
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: the wagon. You can't reboard it. That's the biggest trick
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: that he uses. He makes you think that if you
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: keep stumbling, that you can't run the race. It kind
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: of reminds me of a marathon runner. From time to time,
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: I watch them on TV, and you'll see some people
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: who finish the race, you know, in a nice pace.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: You see people finish the race sprinting towards the finished line.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: But every now and then you'll watch a marathon and
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: you'll see a runner and the runner is in really,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: really bad shape. The key is they finish the race. See,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: you don't get disqualified in the marathon because you stumble,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: You don't. They don't. They don't take your opportunity to
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: finish the race because you keep falling. That's not the key.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: The key is finishing. And a lot of times what
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: the devil does is he makes you think that because
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: you keep stumbling, because you're swaying from side to side,
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: that you know you out the race. Well, that's not
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: the case. And see and then this thing called life,
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: let me help you understand something. Everybody falls. Nobody sprints
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: to the tape in this one, nobody just runs free
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: and clear. That has some people running faster than you
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: and all like this, and some people gonna get to
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: the end before you let them go ahead. And when
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: the end come, the end come. I ain't in a run,
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: you get to the end. But in this race, though,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: when you're stumbling and you're falling, it's a part of it.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: No one gets through this race without stumbling and falling,
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: swaying from side to side. So don't let the enemy
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: to see you in the thinking that it's over. I
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: try to be encouraging to people because I don't want
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: people to get stuck on this thing, you know. And
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: my walk is very different from a lot of people's walks.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: And then I know a lot of people who walking
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: in faith the way I'm walking in faith. But my
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: thing in the morning is just to remind those that
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: is not a perfect walk man, that it's not something
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: that's set up where you're gonna be skipping through life
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: scott free without any pitfalls. You know. I keep saying
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: it over and over and over again, because, like I said,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: when I was in DC, my boy Hondo said this
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: to me, and it just kind of stuck with me
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: that the road to construct the road to successes always
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: under construction. You have to figure and count on the
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: setbacks and the pitfalls. But it's those people that that
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: that that are that fight through will be the victors
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: in the end. You cannot give up, man, Stop going
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: somewhere and sitting down every time something goes down. It's
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: going to go down. It's a part of it. It's
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: going to happen. It's going to occur that are going
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: to be setbacks. If you go and sit down every
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: time there's a setback, that's not how this works. It
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: is designed that way. If success were easy, everybody would
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: be successful. But success is just reserved for those who
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: are willing to fight through, who refuse to settle for mediocrity,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: who wants something more. Now, don't get me wrong. Success
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: is defined by each individual. So what I may consider
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: to be successful, you may not consider that. You know
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: what Bill Gates considered successful. I might not consider what
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Michael Jordan considered successful. I might not consider what you
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: consider successful. Your boss might not consider. You have to
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: define what that is for yourself. It may not be
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: monetary at all. You know, your level of success could
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: be tied up in community service. It could be tied
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: up in family, It could be tied up in the church.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: Your level of success could be tied up into boys clubs,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: It could be any number of things. Whatever your level
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: of success is, you have to determine what that is
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: you and the best way to determine that is to
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: get in touch with your maker, who created you, to
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: find out what your mission and your purpose is so
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: he can put you on track. I just had this
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: conversation with my son and we were talking about getting
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: on the path that God has said up for you.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: So many times we find ourselves fighting through life because
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: of so much uncertainty, because we have no idea where
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: we're headed. It's like one of my sayings that I
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: have at my mentoring camp for boys is is that
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: a boy without a male role model is like an
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: explorer without a map. See if you don't have a
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: map laid out in front of you of where you're
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: going when you wake up every day, that pretty much
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: explains the feeling of confusion, the laxadaisical attitude, the lack
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: of purpose, to not understanding your mission because you don't
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: have not gotten in touch with your creator to find
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: out exactly what your path in life is what are
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: you supposed to be doing? The moment you can identify
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: that is the moment that you get started waking up
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: with purpose, with the sense of direction. When you kill
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: the sense of I don't know what's next or what
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: to do. Now, there's gonna be some confusing moments no
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: matter what happened, it's gonna be some uncertainty, but at
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: least you'll know where you're going. So if you're tied,
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: awaking up, feeling loss, abandon, confuse, don't know what to do,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: don't know what you're supposed to be doing, refer back
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: to your maker because when he created you, he had
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: a plan for you. When he created you, he had
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: a path for you. Now we've made some decisions to
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: get off of both of those, the mission and the path.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: But God can get you right back on track. Do
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: that today, Ask him what you're supposed to be doing
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: and listen. God has all the answers if you form
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: the relationship. Okays. The Steve Harvey Morning Show
