Speaker 1 (00:00):
Come on you. Uh huh, I sure wi him?
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.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Clear indication of.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
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 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
(00:56):
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, 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
(01:16):
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 rain 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 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. You really want to appreciate how warm weather.
Just stay in a bunch of cold weather all the time.
You know what I'm saying. I'm just this is really simpler.
Now a lot of analogies, but it helps you along
(02:31):
the way. Now, here's what I came 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
(02:51):
future aspirations, their future hopes, their future dreams, just simply
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 we'll go about it. What do I do next?
(03:12):
I want to share something with you that I had
to come to terms with. The quickest way to lose
focus on your future is to keep focusing on your past.
You know, It's like I said at the beginning. 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 helps shape inform you today
(03:36):
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
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
(03:59):
because it aint 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
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's saved my life.
First of all, it got me clean. He said, I've
(04:21):
been clean for five years from sitting in here. That's
for starters.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
I'm clean. I ain't stealing no more.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
I 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, Man, 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. See what I had
to 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
(05:32):
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 experienced person. So next time when people talk about
me who don't know me, it don't shake me, cause
(05:54):
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. Sometimes the breakup is the blessing. I know
it's hard to break up because now you're loaning you
(06:14):
by yourself. But man, but weren'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 take two to make it out of sight. You
(06:35):
really do have to have two people wanting a relationship
to work. It can't just be one person won a relationship.
So you can pray about the relationship all you want.
If the other person don't want you no more and
ain't gonna act right, you can't make him do that,
or you can't make her do that. But you steady
asking God for a new relationship. But you are yet
(06:57):
to be grateful that you are in a position to
have a relationship. And you keep harping on the past.
You don't think you hear that. 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. Now, all you got to
do is come on. So if you sitting behind them walls,
brothers and sisters, I'm talking directly to you sometimes. Man,
(07:34):
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 here. Listening each with Steve Scorning Show
