Steve Harvey's Closing Remarks - 02.14.25 · Daily Inspiration: The Steve Harvey Morning Show

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: I was thinking about something earlier. Today, I've tried to
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: think about would have been the most valuable things in
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: my life? And if you think about it, man, I
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: was watching something online and it was talking about a
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: man what he was willing to sacrifice greatly for and
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: what it came down to. The guy posed the questions,
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: what are you willing to die for? Or who would
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: you die for? And that's a striking question. And if
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: you ask yourself that question and you can't think of
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: anybody or nothing you would die for, I want to
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: suggest something to you. You have to start reaching for
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: something of value. Sooner or later, you've got to start
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: attaching yourself to something and that's greater than you, because
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: it can't just be about you. That's not the word,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: that's not the way the world is set up in
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: designed We are a collection of relationships. We are all
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: woven together in some shape, form or fashion to the
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: people that we know, and once you know them, somebody
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: in that connection has to be of value. I thought
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: this question out. I would die for all of my children.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: I would die for my wife. I would have died
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: for my parents. I would die for my two sisters,
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: my brother. I would and the reason I would is
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: because of the level of significance they've had in my
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: life and the fact that I couldn't live when I
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: would live with myself knowing that I allowed it to
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: be them instead of me. I just ain't cut from
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: that cloth. Now hear a lot of men online talking
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: about I ain't dying for nobody. When you, my friend, you,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: my brother, have not found the secret to this thing,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: because life becomes worth living when you find yourself in
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: love with someone more than you love yourself. When you
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: get to that right there, you'll understand what it's all about.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: When you first lay your eyes on your child, that
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: child becomes quite significant to you. I don't care when
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: you have this child, how late in life, how early
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: in life. Once you look at them, they become really
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: significant for you, and you change. My children changed me.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: I realized all of a sudden, I not only had
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: something to live for, I now had something I would
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: die for. And that's what it comes down to, fellas.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, it applies to women too, but I'm kind
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: of really talking to men because I think what happened
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: man with this generation that we have is not enough.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Older men are sharing the concepts and principles of life
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: anymore with these young cats, and they got them going
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: around freely exchanging information with one another that ain't really
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: good information, Like we stop telling each other that you
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: are really really made in this world to provide and
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: to be a provider for something. We have been taught
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: that women are the prize. And I was watching this
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: guy online talking about a woman ain't the prize? Well,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: if you get the right one, it is, now you
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: can get the wrong one. The wrong one ain't. The
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: wrong one is not a prize. The right one is.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: But say, fellas, you ain't no prize either until you
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: lift up, live up to your calling. Women have a
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: skill set that we've not been blessed with. They the
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: only one that can make another life. You can get
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: with another a woman and she can make another you.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: You can't do that a woman. Some women's obligation is
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: to reproduce all women, but some every woman isn't born
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: into this world to have children. Understand that. But there
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: are women who want children from the time they're little girls.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: Well that's that's their mission in life. But fellas, you
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: gotta want root. You gotta understand what is yours too, though,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: because if you ain't, if you ain't here to take
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: care of nobody, what Because you can't make a life,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: so you should at least be able to sponsor one.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just talking real to you now. That
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: is value and honor in taking care of a family.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: That is real honor. I'm able to stick my chest
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: out knowing one thing I did exceptionally well. I've been
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: a great provider exceptionally well. And it's not the amount
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: of money. I'm talking to all men who go out
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: there and turn them corners every day, start that carp
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: and drive the work and come home with that check
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: and laying on the table and share it with a
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: woman and saying, hey, now make this work. I'm talking
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: to you. You ain't got to be rich to be
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: a provider. All you got to do is show up
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: and provide. But that's honor in that. Man. Men feel
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: me and men take a certain pride in that. And
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: we got to keep doing that. Fellas. It's okay to
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: love your wife, it's okay to love your children. It's
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: okay to want to have a family. It's okay to
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: defend them with your honor, with your life. That's been
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: one of my great joys. Man. I ain't got a
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: lot of stuff right, but I got that right. He
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: say what you want to say. But I look out
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: for mine, and I take care of mine, and I
