Speaker 1 (00:00):
Come on. Ah huh, I sure will. Good morning everybody
you're listening to the voice, Come on digging now, one
and only Steve Harley got a radio show. Okay, here
we go today, folks. This is a good one because
today I want to share with you something that affects
(00:23):
every living soul, and that one thing is your attitude.
This affects everyone. It is your attitude. You know. I
don't know if anyone's ever told you, but I mean
many of you who listen and know this, but there
(00:44):
are a lot of people who don't understand. A positive
attitude can bring about a change. A positive attitude can
bring about a change. Well, now here we go with
the nay says, well, Steve, what you mean if I'm
just positive being changed? My mama gone, What me being
positive got to do with that? Okay, now listen to
(01:06):
me carefully. A positive attitude can bring about change. Well, okay, Steve,
I hear you saying that. But they done fired me.
So now what does my having a positive attitude have
to do with the fact that they fired me? Well,
one more time, A positive attitude can bring about change. Well, Steve,
(01:30):
I set up in here and gave eight nine twelve
years of my life to this man and he just
he cheated on me and walked out. Now what does
me being positive have to do with him cheating on me?
How that's gonna change that? Okay, here we go again.
A positive attitude can bring about change. Now listen to
(01:51):
the whole thing. Now, the positive attitude and the change
that can happen starts. This is the start. It starts
within you. See, life is ten percent. What happens is
ninety percent what you do about what happens. Okay, you
(02:12):
gave twelve years of your life to this man. He
cheated and left you holding the bag, the kids and everything.
Now what does being positive have to do with changing that?
Or they came in and they fired you. You lost
your job that you was a stellar performer at. But now,
how does you have a positive attitude? How does that
change things for you? So far, you can use any example.
(02:37):
Here's what happens when you have a positive attitude. What
it produces within you is a positive approach to life.
And when you have a positive attitude and a positive
approach to life, it causes you to be optimistic, to
have a positive out, a look, to expect things, to
(03:01):
eventually turn around and turn into a positive That's very
important because as the law of attraction comes into play,
if you think positive thoughts, you attract positive things. If
you think evil thoughts, you attract evil to you. You know,
(03:21):
if you want for nothing, then nothing comes your way.
If you want for positive attitude, if you want for
positive results, if you want for a great outcome, that's
what you attract to you. The change will begin within you.
So let's take the man that walked out your life
and left you hold in the bag. Here's a positive attitude. Okay,
(03:43):
two things have happened that's positive. Here. Number one, you've
ridded yourself of someone who is obviously going to be,
if not already been, toxic in your life, cause you
many restless nights, a lot of uncomfortable feelings of uneasiness,
not sure insecurity. You've been going through it with this person,
(04:04):
whoever they are. Number one, that person has been released
from your life. Number Two, it allows you now to
have the someone who will treat you just the way
you want to be treated. That's the positive outlook, that's
the optimistic way. That's when you're a positive person. You
see the positive in things that happen to you instead
(04:25):
of burying yourself under the what's wrong with it? A
old woe is me? Now? Concept see a positive attitude?
When they came in there and they fired you and
let you go? Could this not have been just the
opening you needed to finally start on a new career
path that you've been talking about doing anyway? Could it
(04:46):
possibly be a brand new chance for you to get
the dream job or dream career of your choice. Could
it not possibly be the perfect opportunity now for you
to finally finally do something about that gift, about that
talent that God gave you, that thing that you love
(05:06):
to do. Could it not be the perfect time for
you to pursue that. But if you don't have a
positive attitude, then you lay there. Oh they finish, Come
get in my house. Oh what I'm gonna do now? Oh?
This unemployment ain't enough? Oh Lord, when this unemployment run out?
What am I gonna do? Then? I won't have nothing?
And you old woe is me until you become old
(05:29):
woe is me. But if you take it from the
positive approach, some amazing things can happen in your life.
I will tell you on a personal note that some
of the most some of the best changes, some of
the biggest moments in my life came after a loss.
So I don't want to go down the list, but boy,
I could tell you. Let me tell you something. When
(05:51):
they didn't want me on the radio anymore in La,
well they didn't when they were it was sick of
the way I did radio out there, and they wanted
me gone. And on May twenty thirty, two thousand and five,
when my did when when my deal was done with
the beat out in La. Okay, look what happened though. Yeah,
(06:16):
I was gone in May. But in September nineteenth I
started to Steve Harvey Radio Network with four cities you see.
But I didn't go old woe with me. I said, oh, okay,
God must have something else from it, inn because if
he didn't remove me from this, that must be something else.
Same thing can happen when you lose and you break
(06:38):
up in a relationship. Same thing can happen to you.
You never know the one God God for you. Now
here you go, here you go again. Now you get
put into a situation where somebody treat you just the
way you want to be treated, provide you the whole
lot of aspects of your life you knew nothing about
prior to that. But you gotta stay positive. If you
stay positive, that positive attitude, that optim stick out look,
(07:01):
that that always thinking God got me, no matter what
happened to me, some amazing things that's going will happen
in your life. It's a fact. I don't know how
it works that way. I just know that's what it is.
Positive attitude is everything, y'all. So get off the old
woe is Me negativity train because it ain't gonna take
you nowhere but down and get get your outlook up.
(07:24):
If you change your attitude, you change your altitude. Altitude
is determined by your attitude. How high you go, how
big you become, how far you go. It all depends
on how you think. It all depends on what type
of attitude you got. Ain't no, ain't no very very successful,
super negative people. It just doesn't coincide that way. If
(07:47):
you see that something that happened to them along the way,
and don't worry. You ain't gotta worry about it because
you ain't gonna see him long. Because you can't stay
up there like that. It's just too hard, all right.
