here we go today, folks. This is a good one
because today I want to share with you something that
affects every living soul, and that one thing is your attitude.
(02:28):
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
are a lot of people who don't understand a positive
attitude can bring about a change. A positive attitude can
(02:53):
bring about a change. Well, now here we go with
the nay says, well, Steve, what you mean if I'm
just positive being chained? I'm mama gone, what me? Being positive?
Got to do with that. Okay, Now listen to 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
(03:16):
to do with the fact that they fired me? Well,
one more time, A positive attitude can bring about change. Well, Steve,
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
(03:37):
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
the whole thing. Now, the positive attitude and the change
that can happen starts to start. It starts within you. See,
(04:06):
life is ten percent. What happens is ninety percent. What
you do about what happens. Okay, you 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 changeing that? Or
they came in and they fired you. You lost your
job that you was a stellar performer at. But now
(04:27):
How does you have a positive attitude? How does that
change things for you?
Speaker 1 (04:33):
So far?
Speaker 3 (04:34):
You can use any example. 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
(04:56):
look to expect things to eat 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
(05:17):
attract evil to you.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
You know, if you want for nothing, then nothing comes
your way.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
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,
two things have happened that's positive.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Here.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Number one, you've rided 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 is security. You've been going through
it with this person, whoever they are. Number One, that
(06:04):
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 of burying yourself under the what's
(06:26):
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 possibly be a brand new chance
(06:47):
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 to do. Could it not be
the perfect time for you to pursue that. But if
(07:09):
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 woe is me. But if
(07:29):
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 let me tell you something. When they didn't
(07:50):
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 twenty thirty, two thousand and five, when my did
when when my deal was done with the beat out
(08:10):
in La. Okay, look what happened though. Yeah, I was
gone in May. But in September nineteenth I started to
Steve Harvey Radio Network with four cities.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
You see. But I didn't go old woe was me?
Speaker 3 (08:25):
I said, Oh, okay, God must have something else from
it in because if he didn't remove me from this,
That must be something else. Same thing can happen when
you lose and you break 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,
(08:48):
provide you the whole lot of aspects of your life
you knew nothing about prior to that.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
But you gotta stay positive.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
If you stay positive, that positive attitude, that optimistic outlook,
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
(09:16):
woe is Me negativity train because it ain't gonna take
you nowhere but down and get get your outlook up.
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
(09:37):
of attitude. You got ain't no, ain't no very very successful,
super negative people. It just doesn't coincide that way. If
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.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
It's just too hard, all right.
