Love? You gotta turn, got to turn the mouth turn.

(01:43):
You probably got to turn the mouth out of the money.
Look me, come.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
Come on, you think I share with you?

Speaker 3 (02:03):
Good morning everybody you're listening to the voice, Come on,
dig me now, one and only Steve Harley got a
radio show today. I want to just share something with
you along your way to wherever it is you're trying

(02:23):
to get to. You know, everybody has a different definition
for success, and I'm not here to tell you what
yours should be. I mean, please pursue whatever you think success.
He is aim as high as you can though, that's
for sure. My father used to say all the time.
I'm sure you all have heard it in different variations,

(02:45):
but he used to always say, aim for the moon.
Just in case you miss, you'll still be amongst the stars.
Just say that to me all the time. So that
always was in me to aim high. Now he wasn't
saying aim with the intent to miss. He was just
saying aim in case you miss, you'll steal me amongst

(03:08):
the stars if you aim for the moon. But if
you just aim for that first flow window and you
miss it, you know, usually run into some type of
wall and nothing happens.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
You slither down. You know.

Speaker 3 (03:22):
In my book, act like a lady, think like a man.
I told her people that me in love three ways,
they profess, they provide, they protect, and that's the core essence.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
Of a man's love. Well, there's some other PE's in
life too.

Speaker 3 (03:37):
The number one thing you have to understand about trying
to be successful, and I guess I'll call this the
four p's.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
I may come up with five along the way. I
don't know.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
I'm just talking as it's given to me. So I'm
gonna summer start by saying that these are the four
PE's of success that you have to get ready for.
Number one is pressure. A lot of it is applied
by the circumstance of what you're trying to go for
and what you're trying to do.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
But.

Speaker 3 (04:11):
A lot of it also is self impose pressure. It's
what you put on yourself to make it. It's a
sense of urgency, it's a sense of necessity. But pressure
is the first thing I want you to be ready for.
And pressure comes in a lot of different forms, but

(04:33):
it's going to be pressured as an old saying that
pressure buster pipe. See, that's why most people turn around
because of the pressure of trying to be successful. I
want you to get it in your mind that it
is going to be a pressure rise situation on your
rise to the top. Pressure, but understand that that is

(04:53):
what it is. Is not going to change.

Speaker 1 (04:56):
That's it. Prepare yourself, get ready. Are there to be pressure.

Speaker 3 (05:03):
The second thing I want you to understand is when
you receive this pressure, you have to persist.

Speaker 1 (05:11):
You got to stay at it. You got to develop
a dog illness. Hez A.

Speaker 3 (05:20):
There's a song how it says, why must I feel
like that? Why must I chase the cat? Nothing but
the dog in me? That's a funny line in that
song because really I was thinking about it one day.
I was humming it and and it occurred to me, said,

(05:42):
why must I feel like that? Why must I chase
the cat? Nothing but the dog in me? And you know,
now you could take it in the literal sense that
a cat chases the dog, because it's innately, it's in
his spirit that cats and dogs are a lot of
times enemies. Now people have pets in him, proving that

(06:02):
if you show love on both sides, they can exist.
And that happens too but naturally innately, when your cat
goes by a dog and your dog don't recognize him,
there's some barking going on. I'm talking about just walking
through the neighborhood or something. So but the reason that
this dog is so persistent towards this cat is just

(06:25):
cause it's in him. It's innately in him. And what
I'm saying to you, just using that as an analogy,
is that you got to be you got to be
persistent in that.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
You got to develop some dog in you now, because
pressure takes some fighting back.

Speaker 3 (06:48):
See if you don't fight back against pressure, pressure buster pipe,
So what you think it'll do to you? Pressure crack walls,
pressure calls, explosions. So if you don't fight back to
hold hold it in, you understand pressure does most people
in the simple thing called pressure, the weight of what

(07:09):
it feels like to want to be successful every single day,
over and over and over and over and over. It's
just too much pressure. People crack. You got to persist,
you have to persist.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
You can. The thought of giving up can come, but
you got to get it out. You got to persist.

Speaker 3 (07:29):
The next thing I want you to think about is
another something that I've been thinking about for years and
learned for years.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
It's called perseverance.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
To persist means to insist, keyword in incest and persistence
insists you must. You must insist that this is going
to happen. Now, the persist I'm assuming means it's a proaction.
It's some type of proaction that you go towards it
to make it. You know, persist, You gotta be persistent.

(08:04):
You gotta be constantly at insisting that it happens. You
gotta be constantly at it. But the next thing I
want you to remember is perseverance. Perseverance is important. Perseverance
means that when you've done your best, when you've persisted,
when you're fighting back against the pressure. Perseverance simply means

(08:26):
I'm going to hang in here. If a crack come
into pipe, I'm gonna hang in there. If the pipe bust,
I'm gonna keep going. If I gotta put duct, take mud,
whatever I got to put on this thing. Man, I'm
gonna use perseverance. I'm going to stay with it no

(08:48):
matter what. So we're looking at the three things again.
You got to understand that it's gonna be pressure that
you're gonna have to persist. Keyword in persistence insists. You
have to insist that no matter what the pressure is,
I'm gonna stay with it. But then perseverance. If it
goes wrong, Man, you got to get in there and

(09:10):
keep fighting. But then, Lord have mercy. Nothing helps you
handle the three peas better than the fourth p You
got to pray.

Speaker 1 (09:19):
You got to use prayer. You got to talk to God.
You gotta use faith.

Speaker 3 (09:25):
You got to have some conferences with him late at night,
early in the morning, in the middle of the afternoon,
when you're on the train, when you driving. You got
to talk to God. Man, you got to get yourself
some help along the way. Nothing is bigger than prayer.
There is nothing bigger than prayer. Prayer will help you
overcome the pressure. Prayer will help you stay persistent, and

(09:47):
Lord have mercy, Prayer will help you persevere. Then, mister
faux pease, God gave that to me. I'm passing it
on
