Speaker 1 (00:00):
Come on, uh huh, I sure will. Good morning everybody
you are listening to the voice, come on dig me now,
one and only Steve Harton got a radio show.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Okay, today is simple. I want to tell you. I
want to just talk to you about effort today. Just
about effort. You know, it's it's it's it's a word
that people use to describe sometimes trying. But what I've

(00:35):
found out about trying is trying is just a noble
way of saying you didn't get it done. I tried
when and then everybody go, well, he tried, he that
was the best. Well that's that's not exactly true, though,
that that's that's not exactly true. You are and I

(00:55):
want to talk to you about that because I don't
want you to be one of the people who just tried.
See trying, I mean, I gotta tell you to attempt something,
You're gonna have to first try, But I want you
to change your mindset from trying to getting it done.

Speaker 3 (01:17):
See, that's a big difference.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
I'm really more apt to listen to the person that
says to me, I'm gonna get it done. I'm gonna try.
What try does is it allows you to fail it's
the person that has the mindset that I'm gonna get
it done. It's the person who changes the complexion of things.
I'm gonna get it done. It's very different than I'm
gonna try.

Speaker 3 (01:40):
You know. Look, man, I know this sounds a little.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
Harsh, but you gotta stop feeding yourself these little old
wise sayings that ain't it was a valiant tribe. Hey man,
you talk to anybody that took second place in the
super Bowl and see how they feel about their valiant try.

Speaker 3 (02:00):
The only way.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
To gain God's real blessings is you have to try something.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
Steve backpeddling, Now, listen to me close.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
You have to put forth an effort to allow God
to put his finger on something to bless on your behalf.
You must start to attempt now insaying getting it done
and I'm gonna try. That's a different of two different

(02:35):
faiths to me that I'm just talking about me.

Speaker 3 (02:39):
Now. You may be different. So I can't say this
about you, but I can say this about me.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
If I say I'm gonna get it done, I have
a lot of faith in it. I Am going to
get it done because I just don't see failure as
an option. A lot of times now if somebody says
to me, like the Olympic team invited me out to
curl one day, which is throw these stones on the ice,

(03:08):
if you're not familiar with this very simple thing, and.

Speaker 3 (03:11):
So I said, man, I'd like to give that a try.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
I went in full well knowing I may not come
away from this little curling lesson.

Speaker 3 (03:24):
As a person who could make the Olympic team.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
I just wanted to try it because I thought it
looked cool, and I always wanted to get it done well.
I failed twice. I threw a stone completely into the
other lane. I lost that little ice shoe, it shot
out under me. But you know what, I kept trying though.
I kept trying until I got four of them stones

(03:49):
in that circle right where I aim. But now had
I given up after I failed, after I threw that
stone in the other lane, after I shot my shoe
down all the way to the bottom side, the little
ice shoe they.

Speaker 3 (04:03):
Give you, I never did it.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
But because I was trying, something got me together a
little bit because of my effort, and it caused me
not to fall the next time, not to throw it
in the other lane, not to shoot my shoe to
the back of the wall.

Speaker 3 (04:20):
All of a sudden, my trying became something.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
Now had I stayed out there and it wasn't so cold,
and I went.

Speaker 3 (04:27):
Back week after week after week after week. I promise
you I could get it done.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
I could at least know how to compete in a
game of curling.

Speaker 3 (04:39):
Might not be the best.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
I might not win the championship, but I could have
got it done to the point where I could have
competed in a game of curling. So sometimes if you
scared to say I'm gonna get it done, just go
out there and get started. You know, learn from every
attempt that you make. See, don't quit righting yourself off
as a failure every time something don't go right. And

(05:03):
when I fail on that ice, I could have said, man,
I can't curl, But hold up, man, I'm watching four
other women out here curl, four of the dudes out
here curl, the little kids out here curling.

Speaker 3 (05:12):
Hold up, Pardner, you know, man.

Speaker 2 (05:14):
So I learned when I threw that stone on the
other ice, when I failed, when when my shoe shot off,
I learned from every attempt a little bit more about it.
And then I said to myself one point in time. Man,
I'm gonna get this stone in that circle. I'm gonna
get this stone in this circle. And guess what I

(05:37):
got it done. Now what you're saying to me, Steve,
I'm saying to you that you gotta get started.

Speaker 3 (05:44):
That you got to put forth an effort.

Speaker 2 (05:45):
Give God something to bless Oh God, bless me, Oh God,
bless me.

Speaker 3 (05:50):
Bless you?

Speaker 2 (05:50):
What?

Speaker 3 (05:51):
Bless you? Where? Bless you? How?

Speaker 2 (05:54):
Stop basing your results on what you're thinking. You gotta
think higher. You get God in your life, man, He
allows you to think higher, bigger, better more. I was
sitting up in my debt. I came up with a
plan to get out of debt in five years. I
came up with this plan, right, I was sitting up
and I was tripping on it. Now, I said, wait
a minute, man, hold up, this is what I came

(06:17):
up with.

Speaker 3 (06:17):
I said.

Speaker 2 (06:18):
God created heaven in earth, all of it, the mountains,
the sky, the valleys, the oceans, trees, the birds, the.

Speaker 3 (06:30):
Indian Ocean, all of it.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
Made all of it in six days, and then he
rested on the seven So why am I taking to
God the five year plan? If he can create heaven
and earth.

Speaker 3 (06:48):
In six days.

Speaker 2 (06:49):
Why am I walking in there talking about help me
in five years? How is it gonna take God five
years to getting me out of debt?

Speaker 3 (06:59):
And he made heaven on earth in six days? Do
the math?

Speaker 2 (07:02):
Hell, man, I ain't that big. You ain't that big.
You ain't in that much trouble. I ain't in that
much trouble. See, God got a way of showing you
some things, man, but it's gonna take some faith. And
faith gonna take some effort on your part. Man, get
out and do something. Man, you God will bless you
a little bit and he give you a little bit

(07:22):
more courage, and then all them attempts you making is
gonna and all this so I'll try. You know what
that turned into. I'm gonna get it done. And at
the end of the day, that's what you have to do,
because trying to pay your rent and not paying your
rent is two different things. You can you can try
to play your pay your rent, or you can get
it done. Now, how long you think you gonna stay

(07:43):
in that house trying? You got to go with the
mindset of getting it done. And if you can put
some stuff out there and give God a chance to
put his finger on and bless it for you, the
most stuff he can do for you. Quit looking around
what everybody else got, and gonna get some.

Speaker 3 (07:56):
Of it for yourself. Okay, all right here listening into
