Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, Steve, we've come to the end of the
road for this week. This is our last break of
the day on this Friday. Leave us with some closing remarks.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
Please, you know something, man, I'm not gonna take long
to tell you this, but what's the old say that
the grass is always greener on the other side. So
when you hear that, what they're saying is almost like
a warning to people be careful because it always appears

(00:35):
that the grass is greener on the other side. And
so many people spending their life standing at the fence
looking at somebody else's grass and then acknowledging the fact
that they grass is greener. It causes you to do

(01:00):
nothing about your own yard. And then some people have
the audacity, and you see it on the internet all
the time that if they look over there and your
grass is greener, they try to kill the grass or
throw some weeds in it. But you know what I
come away with, I don't worry about that because here's

(01:23):
what I know. I'm too busy working on my own
grass to notice if yours is greener. That's really the truth.
I'm really so busy working on my own grass that
I don't have time to notice if yours is greener,
Because if it is greener, let's suppose your grass is greener,

(01:48):
why can't mind be just as green. I ain't saying
we gonna have the same yard. Were just talking about
the color of the grass that's in your yard. You
don't have to have the same size house I got.
You ain't got to have the same size house, edny guy,
You ain't got to have the same size house. Oprah, God,

(02:10):
you ain't gonna have the same size yard they got.
But if you take care of your business, you can
have grass just as green as everybody else if you
just handle your business. The goal in life is to
get your grass to be as green as it can.

(02:31):
So when you go outside to pick your crops, it
got some fruit to bath. And God will always supply
your needs. So even though it may look like somebody
got more fruit in they orchard, let me tell you
something if you can't. If you got an orchard full

(02:51):
of apple tree a thousand apple trees, and I got
one apple tree tree in my yard, but you got
a thousand apple trees in your yard. When it's time
to eat, how many apples can you eat? Let's say
you eat apple six apples that make you fool. My

(03:12):
one tree got six apples on it, so we both fool.
See at one point in time, you're gonna have to
get content with where you are in your process of
the journey. Stop looking at everybody grass, Stop looking at
everybody orchard. They grass greening than mine. They got more
apple trees than mine. Hey man, eat the apples off

(03:33):
your tree. You might find out that you have enough.
But if you could wear and counting mind, you're gonna
mess around and let worms get on yours. I'm too
busy working on my own grass to even notice that
your grass is green. Change your commitment to everybody else,
from everybody else's business, Change your commitment to your business.

(03:55):
If you the time you spent worried about them, looking
at them talking about if you took that same amount
of time and spend it on yourself, you have any
idea what you could accomplish. That's why haters man is
so much trouble man. You don't even understand. Let people
hate all they want. They tend into too many other

(04:16):
people's business. Don't get in the hate business. It serves nobody.
And that's another thing. Somebody asked me how do I
deal with my haters. I keep all my haters in
my classroom. I just got them watching me, because that's
all they can do. They can't stop nothing God has
for me. They can't take away one blessing God gives me.

(04:40):
They can't do nothing to me. You can't bring no
harm on me that I won't be able to survive.
I'm not saying that it don't bother me sometime. I'm
not saying that people don't attack me sometime. But when
you get through attacking me, I'm a weather your storm.
I'm Isaiah forty three wanted to I can walk through

(05:01):
the rivers and not be overturned. The waters will not
overtake me. I can walk through the fire and not
be burned, nor wire kindlings set upon my clothing. I'd
havene been through some fiery situations and came out on
the other side. And if there was no kindling, there
was no signs that I was even in a fire.
Now understand something, what that scripture does not say that

(05:25):
when you walk through the fire that it ain't gonna
be ungodly hot. They now, it's been plenty hot for
me on plenty days, many occasions. Oh i'd have made
some mistakes in front of the world before I didn't.
Had to deal with some stuff. But when I got
through what no signs that I was ever in a fire.
That's the god I serve. I have no concern about

(05:50):
what people say they gonna do to me. I have
no concern about how green your grass is. On the
other side, I have no concern about how many apple
trees in your orchard. I'm too busy tending to my
own grass to even notice that yours is greener. And

(06:10):
if I do look over there, congratulations on your beautiful
green yard. I'm getting mine there too. That's all it is.
Fix your attitude, change your attitude, You'll change your altitude.
Those are my clothes and remarks.
