Speaker 1 (00:00):
Come on. Uh huh, I sure will.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Good morning everybody you are listening to the voice, Come on,
dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey got a
radio show man.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Oh man, oh man?
Speaker 2 (00:16):
How many times I got to say that before I
get tired of it.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
I think it's gonna be a minute, folks.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
I gotta be real with you, because boy, that's Steve Harvey,
got a radio show man. Clear indication of how God
can do some unexpected, wonderful things for you, how he
leads your life in directions that you never ever saw coming.
You know, I was talking with somebody the other day
(00:43):
and they were talking about how man, they were young
and they were doing things, and they never knew that
the things that they were doing as a youngster would
come and help help form who they were today as
an adult. This guy is fifty years old, and you
know the same thing for you. If you look back
on your life and all of the things that you've done,
(01:07):
it helped shape you into who you are now. This
is provided now that you take the positive approach. Now
when I say look back at your life and see
what you've done, that doesn't mean dwell on the misfortunate
moments because the misfortunate moments were necessary.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
I know it.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
It's hard to see that when it's happening to you,
But the unfortunate moments are necessary. You know, what really
makes you appreciate summer vacation is winter work. What really
makes you appreciate a walk on the beach is when
it's cold is rained in our side. What really makes
you appreciate when you're up, it's because you've been down.
(01:49):
See if you were up all the time, just the
nature of us as human beings, we would lose our
appreciation for it because it becomes case hurrah, whatever, what
it is, what it is, I'm just what you take
it for granted, it becomes expected. But what happens in
life's is it has so many twisting turns, and then
(02:11):
you learn how to deal with those twisting turns, which
makes you now a more experienced person. And then when
the sunny days come, man, you go wild. It's really
nice outside.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
You really want to.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Appreciate how warm weather. Just stay in a bunch of
cold weather all the time.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
I'm just this is really simpler now a loud analogies,
but it helps you along the way.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Now, here's what I came.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
To say today to everybody out there, and this has
helped me in my life. I can't tell you what
it's done for me, but a lot of people are
struggling with moving forward with their future, their future plans,
their future goals, their future aspirations, their future hopes, their
(02:55):
future dreams. Just simply that your future wants a lot
of people trying to have a hard time mapping out
their future. Even what I'm gonna do, what I'm gonna be,
what I'm gonna make, how I'm or go about it,
What do I do next? I want to share something
with you that I had to come to terms with.
(03:16):
The quickest way to lose focus on your future is
to keep focusing on your past.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
You know, It's like I said at the beginning.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
You know when I say it's wonderful to look at
your life and review it, because if you look at it,
it'll tell you it really helped shape inform you today
as the person you are now if you look at
it in a positive sense. But if you dwell in
harp on the negative that's happened to you, then that
(03:46):
keeps you from seeing the good in the incident. Every
bad thing that's happened to you. That was a silver
lining behind it. I know people who were on drugs
who finally, man just got sent to prison for stealing
because it ain't habit. I don't cat that's sold dope. Well,
he went to prison. He told me one time, he
says Steve. He said, man, this is the best thing
(04:08):
ever happened to me to save my life. Now, most
people would think, how in the world is going to
prison helpful for you? The brother said, it saved my life.
First of all, it got me clean. He said, I've
been clean for five years from sitting in here. That's
for starters. I'm clean. I ain't stealing no more. I
(04:28):
ain't putting myself in jeopardy, and I ain't jeopardizing nobody else.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
He said.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Now, man, I done went to college. I done got
a college degree while I'm in here. Then he was
released from prison, and the brother's life was completely turned around.
He married, he got a family, he got a great job.
He go to work every day. He's a productive citizen.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
I mean.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
So he looks back on his incarceration, even his drug abuse,
and it taught him how to appreciate that things in
life that he had taken for granted and was missing
because he said, Mamber, my life was just in a blur.
I didn't even know what was going on, he said.
Now I appreciate every day I wake up. That's what
(05:11):
I mean. Even in your missteps in life, there is
a purpose for the missteps. Every time you fail, there
was a reason for the failure.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
See what I had to.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Do was I had to learn that all of my
failures taught me how to get back up. So I
became a very strong and tough person in getting back up.
And then I was down and out so long that
it taught me how to really appreciate that up. And
so I've taken all of that and used it those
experiences that happened to me, and I became a more
(05:46):
experienced person. So next time when people talk about me
who don't know me, it don't shake me, cause everybody
not gonna like you. Man, you might as well go
and get on this train right now. And so what
I'm saying to you out there is the quickest way
to lose focus on your future is to keep focusing
on your past. Let it go. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he left.
(06:09):
Sometimes the breakup is the blessing. I know it's hard
to break up because now you're loaning you by yourself.
But man, but wasn't you in misery when you was
in that? Weren't you in complete misery in that? Now
you kept asking God to fix it. But it takes
two people to fix a relationship. It don't just take one.
It take two to make a thing go right. It
(06:32):
take two to make it out of sight. You really
do have to have two people wanting a relationship to work.
It can't just be one person want a relationship, so
you can pray about the relationship all you want. If
the other person don't want you no more, it ain't
gonna act right. You can't make him do that or
you can't make.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Her do that.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
But you steady asking God for a new relationship. But
you are yet to be grateful that you are in
a position to have a relationship.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
And you keep harping on the past. You don't think
you hear that.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
I'm just a dude with a show, and I hear
it all the time. Let it go go forward.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
It's over.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
You made it, He bought you through it, you conquered,
you survived it. Why are you dwelling on it and
making it the cross around your neck when clearly he
had removed it for you.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Now, all you got to do is come on.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
So if you sit behind them walls, brothers and sisters,
I'm talking directly to you sometimes. Man, you just got
to get it right. All this repeat of fender business,
that's for?
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Who is that for?
Speaker 2 (07:39):
How ignorant can you be to keep giving your life
back to the penal system? Be free, man, walk the streets,
do the right thing. Ask God to help connect you.
He could do anything you think he can't give you
a job. Are you serious? Man, put some faith on it.
Let's move forward, y'all. Let it go.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Let's move you're listening to Steve Morning Show.
