Speaker 1 (00:00):
Steve Harvey, You've brought your fabulous and very insightful, very informal,
very motivating closing remarks back. It's something that you started
years ago when you first started the Steve Harvey Morning Show,
and people have grown to love them and you know,
to live by them and be inspired by them.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
So what do you have for us herees today?
Speaker 3 (00:19):
A real good piece of motivation that makes your quest
to become successful a little bit simpler. You know, oftentimes
people are stuck in a rut because they can't think
they way clear to see the end result. What I
mean by is, some people make such lofty goals and
(00:39):
then they sit there without a plan of attack to
achieve that lofty goal, until they've created a goal that
seems so daunting that they don't even start the process
of a trying to accomplish it. For example, and this
doesn't have to be the case, I'm just using this
as an example. Let's say you want to be a
(01:00):
millionaire and you say, wow, I want to make a
million dollars.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
And then you start thinking of how to make the.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
Million dollars, and because you can't, it becomes so daunting.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Making a million dollars is difficult.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
If it were easy, wouldn't you do it by Friday?
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Wouldn't you?
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Of course you would. But it's a little more difficult
than that. So here's what I had to learn in
my life. Everybody listening to this was born with a
gift is inside of you. Because God is very fair.
He didn't put it on a mountaintop, he didn't hide
it under a rock. It's in you, and your gift
(01:41):
is the thing that you do the absolute best with
the least amount of effort. In that lies your greatest
chance for success. There's a scripture that says your gift
will make room for you and put you in the
presence of great men. Let's just look at the first
part of that, your gift will make room for you.
(02:02):
My interpretation of that has meant what my gift has
done for me. It has allowed me to spread out,
It has taken me places I never dreamed i'd go.
Your gift will do the same thing for you. So
now let's just talk about your ability to get to
the million. I think it's what your gift because if
(02:23):
that's that He gave you and instilled it you at birth,
was to make room for you.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Here's your chance. Now, how do I do that? Steve?
Speaker 3 (02:31):
I call it to maximize your effort by ten theory.
It's just something I came up with driving when I
was homeless and coming up with how to make it,
and I discovered something. All of you have something that
some would pay you ten dollars to do. Some of
you paint, some of you teach, some of you babysit tutors.
Some of you work with your hands. Some of you
(02:54):
can sing, some of you can choreograph. Some of you
it's so many cut grass, I mean, play the pianos.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Some of you do something.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Some of y'all work on cars, some of y'all drive.
But all of you have something that you will do
that someone will give you ten dollars to do. All
of you have something that someone will pay you ten
dollars to because you do something that someone else can't do.
So now all you gotta do instead of trying to
figure out how to make a million dollars is go
make the ten dollars that you're able to make. Once
(03:26):
you make that ten dollars, I want you to do
it ten more times. When you do it ten more times,
you now have one hundred dollars. Once you have one
hundred dollars, it's very simple. Do the same thing you
did to make the one hundred dollars ten more times.
You now have one thousand dollars. See, you don't have
to keep thinking of something else to do. Just keep
doing the same thing that you've been doing.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Just do it. Multiply the effort.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
It's the effort that maximizes and brings about the fruition
of what your life can be. So if you make
a thousand dollars, then you do that ten more times.
I have news for you. Now have ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Now. Now, in order to.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
Make one hundred thousand, you might need a little bit
of help. You might need to hire somebody and help
you do the thing that you do. But if you
make ten thousand dollars, and you do what you did
to make ten thousand dollars, which is the same thing
you did to make ten dollars, if you do it
ten more times, you.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
Now have one hundred thousand dollars. Now listen to me,
my friends.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
Once you have one hundred thousand dollars, I can assure
you you are going to need help because in order
to maximize one hundred thousand dollars. You have to have
some like minded people around you. Nobody gets to the
top alone. Nobody becomes successful and wealthy by themselves. They
form partnerships, relationships, they get employees.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
But once you make one hundred.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
Thousand dollars doing the same thing you did to make
ten dollars, if you do it ten more times, I
have news for you, my friends. Congratulations, you have just
made one million dollars with a ten dollar idea. Stop
trying to figure out how to make the million. What
all you got to do is take your ten dollar
gift that God has put in you. It's a million dollar.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
What a gift that you have.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
You just haven't broken it down inch by inch. Anything's
a cinch. And maximize the efforts. That's how you become successful.
These jokes that pay me what I make now, it's
the same jokes that pay me twenty five dollars a night.
They the same jokes. It's all English. This is not
in another language. I don't know no more words now
(05:22):
than I knew then. I've taken these twenty five dollar
jokes and I maximize them over and over and over
and over and over and over and over. It's the
same jokes I was telling babysitters who charge fifty dollars
to watch kids. Babysitters end up opening up daycare centers.
(05:44):
Daycare centers turn into franchises, Crim de la crim Monossory schools.
These are national franchises. Somebody was just babysitting. My partner
used to cut grass fus three dollars in the front,
three dollars in the back. He got a landscape and
come here in Cleveland. He make four million.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
Dollars a year. You know what he do?
Speaker 3 (06:06):
He cut grass, same six dollar grass cutting he been doing.
He check out some trucks. Now, what is it that
you do that somebody will pay you ten dollars that
you could maximize your effort for and turn it into
your million. Trying to figure out how to make a million.
Take your ten dollars skills set and start hammering it
and beating it and working it and grinding and hustling
(06:29):
and multiplying and magnifying it, and you'll make a million dollars.
That's my clothing remarks. Thank y'all very much.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
