This year.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
I just realized what's happening, So let's just move on.

Speaker 1 (01:54):
You got a question for Steve Amazon.

Speaker 3 (01:58):
You know, I love what you talk about success, man,
and you always say it's a choice.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
You have to choose it. You have to choose to
be successful. You know, God, Yeah, go ahead.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
But you know, I mean God created us all with
the power of choice.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
We're the only creatures beings.

Speaker 3 (02:17):
That He made that has the complete full power of
choice because we were created in his image. God made choices.
In the beginning. God said, let there be light, and
there was light. He been making decisions all along. You
get to decide if you don't like the way your

(02:41):
life is going, you can make a decision to change it.
Now with that decision comes work, effort, planning, but you
get the choice. What stops people from choosing success is
the fear of failure and the unwillingness to participate in

(03:04):
all that is required because it's hard, it really is, man.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
But you get to choose. A really, really.

Speaker 3 (03:12):
Interesting conversation I had with a friend of mine and
I said something man, and he later on texted me
and said, Wow, Man, that's one of the deepest things
you've ever said to me.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
Love.

Speaker 3 (03:24):
We were talking man, and he was my best friend
in college.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
We were roommates. Marvelous.

Speaker 3 (03:29):
Marvel lives in Dayton, Ohow still to this day one
of my favorite people in the world. Just had his
seventieth birthday the other day. Happy Birthday, Marvelous. We were
talking and he said, Man, I don't know how you
did it. He said, man, because I just I couldn't
have been you. The stuff they've written about you and

(03:51):
said about you that I knew wasn't true because I
know you. How we've stood at all, he say, is
beyond me. Man, I couldn't have did it, man, he said, Man,
they done done you dirty. He said, Man, but let
me ask you some love. He said, why you always
take the hard road? Man? He said, Man, everything you

(04:15):
do is hard. Why do you always take the hard road?
I told him? I said, hey, bro, what makes you
think I see two roads?

Speaker 2 (04:30):
The reason I.

Speaker 3 (04:31):
Take the hard road and have always picked the hard
road is because everything I've ever wanted in my.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
Life was going to be hard to get to.

Speaker 3 (04:45):
I ain't never wanted the easy road because ain't nothing
over there. I've always wanted and chosen the hard road
because everything you want in life is on the other
side of uncomfortable, and you got to get comfortable being uncomfortable.
If you're not willing to do that, you'll never be successful.

(05:07):
I'm sorry, that's the way it is. I didn't make
it that way. I didn't pick it that way. I
didn't choose it that way. That is simply the way
it is. So buckle down, hold on tight. If you
want to win and get it right, you got to
go the hard way. Because it's hard, you don't and
but you get to choose that though. Now listen to this.

(05:30):
You can choose not to go the hard way. You
can choose to take the easy way. But what's over there? Though,
Think about it, y'all. In y'all's life, think about the
easy way. What's over there? Guess what I see when
I look over there at the easy way, I always see.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
Something I want.

Speaker 3 (05:53):
If you're trying to make fast, easy money, guess what's
over there? Prison, rest, jail time, severe consequences. Everything I've
ever wanted in life is on the other side of uncomfortable.
I just learned to be comfortable being uncomfortable, and that

(06:17):
got me the lifestyle. But you get choices, man, you
get to decide. But it's hard not being successful too.
Think about that for a moment. Y'all, have yourself a
great day to day. Talk to God. He would absolutely
love to hear from you today. And it don't even
matter if it's been a while.
