Speaker 1 (00:01):
Ladies and gentlemen, it is here again, another great opportunity,
another blessing from God, another shot at it, another chance. Man,
It's just opportunity. And what a blessing it is to
be here today. It is just an extreme blessing to
be here today. Man, ain't you glad you didn't miss it?

(00:23):
Another one? He'd had done? Another one? Man, I'm over
the moon with this. Let's go Steve Harvey Morning Show,
Shirley Strawberry College for Real, Mississippi, Monica and the legend
that is a junior and then the legend that he
is nephew Tommy Junior wants on your mind.

Speaker 2 (00:38):
Man, hey, uncle, let me talk to you about something, man,
about being grateful for the journey, by being grateful for
the journey, you know, over the break man, when I
had had this guy come to me and says, man,
I don't know how you sit next to Steve Harp
every day and don't feel some type of way. You're like,
I'm sitting there trying to feel like feel like what
because of his success? Or like I should be jealous

(00:58):
of you? Or I don't even understand how that what
would make you even think of that?

Speaker 1 (01:03):
You know, I don't understand what does he mean by
your success?

Speaker 2 (01:07):
And I'm sitting here like I should be upset because
you ain't doing more for me, or something like. I'm like, what,
I'm grateful for my own journey. I don't have to
be your journey.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
Well, see, here's a deal. Here's where a lot of
people get mixed up, and even people who are of
faith in business, deals, in relationships, in work, in everything.
Your greatest chance for success and you're optimizing any opportunity

(01:39):
you have should not be tied to another person or
group of people. Steve Harvey does not have the ability
to make or break anyone. Now. Have I assisted some
people along the way? Of course? Has it been my
duty and obligation to provide certain people along the way?

(02:01):
Of course, it is my duty and my honor as
a father and a husband to do my duty in
terms of protection and provision one hundred percent. But after that, man,
I really don't don't. I don't owe anybody anything. I
will help you out the goodness of my heart with
some advice or something like that. But I had to

(02:26):
learn a long time ago, man, stop tying your dreams,
hopes and aspiration to people and put your faith in God, man,
because people will let you down. Do you know how
many people have not done what they said they was
gonna do in your life? Do you know how many
meetings you've been to and been promised touff and that

(02:47):
meeting turned out to be a zero? Do you know
how many plans you've put on paper that did not
come to fruition? Do you know how many doors have
been slammed in your face by so all friends, family,
co workers, bosses, companies, And I've just had to learn

(03:07):
when them doors get slammed in my face, don't stand
there beating on that door. Walk up the hall. God
got some more doors for you, man. So I don't
put my faith in people no more.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
So.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
Yeah, you sitting next to me every morning, you ought
to feel some kind of way. No, just learn what
you can learn, if you can learn something from it,
If I can give you a piece of advice, I will.
But after that, Steve Harvey, ain't any dream making come true? Business?
That's God, because He the one got me where I
am today. It wasn't me man, all right?

Speaker 2 (03:36):
Coming up at thirty two minutes after the hour, the
pastors are up with the word right after this, you're
listening Steve Harvey Morning Show,
