Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, guys, here we are our last break of
the day, and Steve as always words of wisdom. You know,
I was talking about continuing what I was talking about
last time, and I remember one of the last points
I was making was stop allowing people who are in
your space and in your life and they are there

(00:23):
to remind you of who you used to be and
what you used to do. But they are there to
do that to prohibit you from moving forward. Like you
made a statement of if ever you make the statement, man,
I'm gonna do better, I'm gonna start being this way.
I'm gonna start accomplishing this. I'm gonna start doing it
like this. Have you ever noticed there's always somebody, somebody

(00:47):
who wants to tell the story about what you used
to do, who want to bring up a mistake you
made in your past and want to hold you to it.
I cannot tell you how many stories are on the
inner about something I did in my past, something I was.
This is a true story. I was somewhere out of

(01:08):
the country and I ran up into somebody from Columbia.
I was on a golf course or something, and somehow
the guy said yeah, yeah, yeah, you the guy that
messed over my country and he laughed about it, and
I went, excuse me, said, you're the guy that messed
over my country. I said, bro, what are you talking about.
I'm from Columbia, remember when you took the title from

(01:30):
Miss Columbia. He tried to laugh at all, but I
could tell, you know, he was saying it with a
little bit of malice in this heart. I said, hey, man,
it's a mistake I made. Okay, yeah, but it was
probably the biggest mistake of your career, wouldn't you say?
I went, no, no. He said, wait a minute. So
you're trying to tell me that that fiasco that happened
on television wasn't one of the biggest mistakes of your career.

(01:54):
I said, my man, the life I done had it
ain't in the top twenty five the biggest mistakes I've made.
And so you know, I'm just saying that to say
sometimes there's always people around you trying to remind you
of something that happened to you. Listen to me, y'all
cut them people out your life. If you got a

(02:15):
person that's always trying to cut you down because of
what you did or mistake you made, or bringing up
something you did, man, Cut them people out your life,
cut them people off your social media. Quit letting people
have access to you that don't deserve access. Your comment

(02:35):
section is open to the public. Why are you opening
up your comment section to the public and then putting
weight behind what somebody says about you that don't even
know you. They don't even know the story. They don't
even know do you know? Every now and then, man,
I'll be reading something and somebody go, you must think

(02:55):
about we forgot that you went up to see Trump.
Do you know people still bringing that up? Man? Miss me,
I don't care what you bring up about that. You
don't even know the story. I don't let nobody hold
me to my past. You have got to understand that
God is in the forgiven business. God is in to

(03:19):
get your life together business. God is in to forget
it and move on. Do you know once God forgives
you for something, he never brings it up again. God
don't have a tally book of mistakes you've made that
he forgave you for. He don't He lets it go.
It's people, man, It's people. The devil got people that

(03:40):
work for him twenty four seven and all their ambition
is to do is to help you help the devil
rob you of your destiny. And the best way to
rob people of their destiny is people get stuck with
what they did and don't have the power to move on.
There are people in relationship ships that have failed and

(04:01):
came move on to the next relationship because you stuck
in what happened with the last relationship? I need closure?
Why did he do me like that? Look, man, listen
to me. He gone, he gone, she gone. They left you.
It's over. It's okay. You didn't die from it. You
actually can be better from it. But you have got
to look for the upside and everything. The reason that

(04:25):
relationship was over and ended is because it wasn't meant
to be. Hey man, I was talking to this young
guy and he was so distraught about his girlfriend breaking
up with him. He didn't know what to do, and
so he was talking to me about it and was
at the camp, This little young boy about seventeen years old.
He was just going through it. I said, my man,

(04:45):
my man, but she left me though, mister Harvey, she
cheated on me with a another guy. I said, Hey, bro,
it was just your turn. That's all you was for her.
It was just your turn. That's all it is. It's
nothing else. He was your turn. Said wow, miss Harvey,
how can you say that was just my turn? It
was your turn. She moved on to something else. It

(05:06):
was just your turn. You had your turn, you was winning.
Y'all had some fun, but it was just your turn.
Drink that man. Move on, ladies. If you out there
got some guy in your life that did you wrong
and you can't get past it, you're better. You better
get past it, because the clock is ticket. Life goes
on with him or without him. I don't know if

(05:27):
you notice, but your rent is still due every month.
I don't know if you picked up on this or not,
but your children are still getting older. I don't know
if you picked up or not, but you still gotta
go to work and earn a living. Now. The fact
that this man done left you and he got you stuck.
The moment you get unstuck, you might make room for
God to give you who you really need to have
in your life. But if you keep stuck on what

(05:49):
happened to you that you lost, you can't ever get
what the new gain is. Stop looking at what you
lost and look at the possibility of what you can gain.
It ain't the loss to potential of the game. Stop
looking at that man. Stop letting people hold you to
your past. God has forgiven you. Get up and move on.

(06:11):
It's okay. Everybody makes mistakes, all right, y'all, have a
good one today. Talk to God today, y'all eat absolutely
love to hear from it. For all Steve Harvey contests,
