got a radio show.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Yep. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
Sometimes all I can say, yelp, man, how far I've
come is really unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
But you know I finally figured it out. Man.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
God allowed me to have the life I've had so
that I can become experienced at so many different things,
and in this experience, when I'm talking and sharing with people,
I will be able to relate to a lot of
different circumstances, not exact, but just the circumstances.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
You know.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
You know if a person comes to me and they say, man,
I've been down and out, Okay, well I know what
that is.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Man.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
I didn't I didn't have any direction. Okay, got that
been there?
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Man?
Speaker 1 (01:00):
At one point in time, Man, I just kept piling
mistake on top of mistakes.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
So you know, I think what I'm trying to say
to everybody is when you're going through life and life
is dealing the cards that it deals, I want you
to understand that life deals everybody these cards, the disappointment card,
the setback card, the failure card, the mishap card, the
(01:32):
unexpected misery card, everybody gonna get, the grief card, everybody
gonna get, the rash of bad decision card, everybody gonna
get them. Understand that going in that everybody is gonna
get these cards is how you play them, though, you know,
(01:56):
from time to time, one more time, it's how you
play them, you know. From time to time. When I'm
watching TV, I love to watch the World Series of Poker.
I like watching poker tournaments on TV because it's really weird.
What's happened to sport? To a poker they're actually trying
to call it a sport, you know. And as to
(02:18):
everyday guy that doesn't have to be athletically inclined to anything,
who has a shot of winning a title if they
play their cards right. The best poker players in the
world don't have the best hands.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
They just make the best plays.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
I've seen guys win a hand with nine to two
in they hand that's nothing, and win the hand because
they knew the bluff, they knew the odds, they calculated risks,
they made the stakes higher than the other person was
willing to pay. They gave off the illusion that they
had something when an actual life, they had nothing. So
(03:03):
what I enjoy about poker and watching it is that
these people, these people here, play the hand they dealt
and it ain't always a good hand. But it ain't
whether your hand is good. And it ain't whether you're
gonna get dealt bad cards or not, because you're gonna
get dealt some bad cars. Everybody ain't finna get two
(03:23):
bullets in their hand. You ain't finna get two aces
when you get dealt. Uh.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
You know, when you.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Play a draw poker, some of your cards gonna be nothing,
but you gotta turn that nothing into something. So when
you get dealt these cards in life, it ain't the
fact that you getting to keep getting them dealt. I
was talking with a young person yesterday and we were
talking and we keep having the same conversation over and
over and over, and they could not understand why they
(03:48):
were not moving forward. But I said, you don't understand.
Every time we talk we have the exact same conversation.
It is simply because you keep getting your cards and
you playing them the same way. See, until you make
a conscience of the conscious decision to do something different,
(04:08):
the results will continue to be the same. See here's
here's here's the way this works. When you're dealt to
disappointments in life. It's how you handle the disappointments that
determine their outcome and who you are. Because everybody gonna
be disappointment. Everybody gonna lose a loved one, Everybody gonna
(04:30):
make a bad decision. Everybody gonna end wake up one
morning and have done something they regretted. Everybody gonna get
caught at the wrong time. Every everybody gonna make a mistake.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
It ain't just you.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
That's how you play your cards when they get dealt
to you. That determine who you are. Now, how do
I play my cards better? First of all, it's a mindset.
Quit looking at everything as just the end when it
happens to you.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Oh lord, woe is me?
Speaker 1 (04:58):
No, everybody got your circumstances somewhere.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
It ain't old woe as me. It's hold on, man.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Okay, let me play this out to see how God
done connected this to something else. See soon as a
person have a set back, what's the first thing A
lot of people do. They go straight negative. I can't
see even get a break, I can't seem to move forward.
Hold on Man, do you realize this could be connected
to something? See, you got to understand, man, that this
thing is all connected. That you not having these mishaps
(05:28):
and these spills and accidents and falls for no reason.
It's so you can become experienced at them. So when
he takes you to the next level, when it happens again,
you'll have no how and how.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
To handle it.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
If you keep throwing yourself off the cliff every time
something happened, you just gonna be a cliff diverl man,
stop tripping yourself out. I was talking to this young person.
I kept saying, and you know what, they tried to
tell me. I'm trying to stay positive. But the people
around here they just killing that.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Oh. I see.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
So when you learn something and you know something, you
don't take ownership of it. You allow other people to
come into what you know and believe and shake it
loose from you. I don't care who you are. You
not doing me like that. Here's a deal. I have
a gift that was given to me from God. That
is the gift of comedy. That's what I've done. I've
made the bulk of my living on that skill set.
(06:23):
Right there, there are comedians who are supposedly friends of mine,
who I've worked with, who get around in huddles with
one another and they say, man, Steve really ain't funny.
I don't see what they be laughing at. He ain't
funny to me. He wasn't the funniest king to me.
Excuse me, You're irrelevant in this conversation because irregardless as
(06:44):
to how you feel about me, there are people think
that I'm knocked down kill over funny. But more importantly,
I own the gift that God gave to me. I
take ownership of his blessing. Cause you don't think it
so you ain't taking that from me. Stop letting people
steal your joy. Stop letting people take what you're supposed
(07:04):
to know. Look, I'm a I'm a kind.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Person at heart. Man.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
You ain't nothing now you said here going? Man, I
guess I ain't. What's your tripping for? You are a
kind person own that take ownership of it. Stop letting
things God has given you be taken away from others.
The devil is a cold player, and he got cold
players working for him, just shaking, just taking stuff from you.
(07:31):
You know, I'm a hard worker. I really am intelligent.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
You stupid man. I thought I was a hard worker. Man.
They came in here and said I was stupid. Man.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong. What excuse me?
You're a very bright person. Hey, y'all take ownership.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
When God gives you something, blesses you would a gift,
a talent, a skill set, a mindset.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Own it.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Don't let people come in here and take it from you. Man, Okay,
I probably shouldn't have went that here.
