Speaker 1 (00:04):
Come on.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Ah huh, I sure will. Good morning everybody. You're listening
to the voice, Come on, dig me now, on and
only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Okay, I want
to talk to you today about success. But I want

(00:32):
to talk to you about it like I usually do
in terms of a principle of it, but I want
to share something with you about it.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
And I was talking to my daughter about it.

Speaker 2 (00:45):
I've talked about my son in law about it, talked
about it with all my children, and I'm really starting
to express it to them now because I'm talking to
a wide range of people constantly. But I want to
share something with you. If you have any aspiration of
being successful, I want you to realize, starting right now,

(01:07):
the effort that is going to require. And that's why
I think it stops a lot of people. I think
a lot of people are never told or don't understand
the sheer effort that it takes to become successful at
anything in any area of your life.

Speaker 4 (01:24):
If you think that doing your.

Speaker 3 (01:26):
Best is enough, that I got news for you. It's not.

Speaker 4 (01:31):
Well, Steve.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
What if you've done your best, though, and your best
ain't good enough? Well, let me ask you that same question.
Hold on, if you want to be successful and you've
done your best, and best isn't good enough. What you
threw that's it. But Steve, it was my best. No no, no,
no no. It was the best you had at that time,

(01:54):
in that particular day. But tomorrow add something to it.
You've never done everything. There is no you can't go
no more, you can't add no more. I've seen marathon
runners end up crawling across the line. I've seen triathlon
people man just staggering in the street and didn't want

(02:16):
nobody to help them because they knew that would disqualify
them from the race. You got more? Have you ever
dipped into your reserve tank? That's what we're talking about now. See,
all of us have a reserve tank, you know.

Speaker 5 (02:34):
You know.

Speaker 3 (02:34):
On my ranch, I like to ride four wheelers.

Speaker 2 (02:36):
I have all terrain vehicles and all of them have
a gas tank on it and a gas tank and
most of mine, let me see all of them. Yeah,
all of them have gas tank needles on them, and
it lets me know when I get down towards eight.

Speaker 3 (02:51):
There's a little lane that's red that lets me know.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
Okay, Steve, you're in a danger zone now, you're riding
into the lowest part of your tank. But if I
keep riding and I forget to get some gas in there,
guess what when it runs out of gas.

Speaker 1 (03:07):
All of my.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
All terrain vehicles, all of them, Honda Polaris, all of them.
Those are the makers. There's a button on the gas
tank itself that I can click and it says reserve.

Speaker 3 (03:22):
That means they know that for the hard core riders.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
They're gonna ride somewhere, they're gonna get themselves in a
situation and they're gonna run out of everything, They're gonna
run out of road, they're gonna run.

Speaker 3 (03:35):
Out of gas.

Speaker 2 (03:36):
They've prepared because they know for the hard core rider,
every hard core rider needs a reserve tank. And so
there's a button that you can click on the gas
tank that clicks it into a reserve and it'll give
you about fifty miles or twenty miles worth of gas
in that. Now, guess what in that reserve that may

(03:58):
be all you need to get you the where you're going,
or get you back to safety so you can refuel.
Don't tell me you've done your best. When your best,
don't cut it. What you're gonna do See, when best
is possible, then good enough ain't enough. See that's good enough,

(04:19):
But if the best is possible, why would you not
shoot for that?

Speaker 3 (04:22):
And you you are all capable of making it.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
But you've got to change your mindset and realize the
effort that has to be put forth in becoming successful.
You've got to do it relentlessly, over and over and
over and over.

Speaker 3 (04:37):
And every day.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
I try to do something to progress my life for
the better. I try to do something every day. I
wake up every day with the plan. Some phone calls,
some meetings, some some some some interviews.

Speaker 4 (04:52):
Something.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
Man, that's going to advance and move the brand forward.
Because here's what's gonna happen. You are Let's say you
reach your goal. Let's say your goal is to make
now one hundred thousand dollars.

Speaker 4 (05:05):
Well, I got news for you. Listen to this.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
When you make the one hundred thousand dollars, you can't
go nowhere and go on vacation and put your hand
behind your head and say I made one hundred thousand dollars.

Speaker 3 (05:16):
Guess what you got to do.

Speaker 2 (05:18):
You got to find a way now to maintain that
one hundred thousand, to keep it coming in. See, you
can't just get there and stop and rest and whoa,
it is harder to maintain your success than it is
to get successful. See let's say, let me show you this.
Suppose it takes you five to eight years to find

(05:42):
a way to make fifty thousand dollars. Let's say it
takes you five to eight years to find a way
to make an extra fifty thousand dollars, and you finally,
through work and effort, you get to the fifty thousand
dollars math. It's only just begun now because guess what.
In order to keep the fifty coming in, you gotta

(06:06):
duplicate what you did to get there. And then, oh,
here's what you're going to have the audacity.

Speaker 4 (06:13):
Being a human being.

Speaker 2 (06:14):
You're gonna want another fifty because you're a human being,
because you gotta have something else to shoot for now
you're gonna want another fifty. Well, now that guess what
you gotta do. Now, Now you gotta do what you
did before for plus you gotta come up with something else.
Then after that, you're gonna have the audacity. Because you're human,
You're gonna want another fifty. Says how this works? And

(06:39):
see that that's that, that's the importance of your relationship
with God, because you're gonna constantly need it. It ain't
havever a point where you're gonna be through needing you.
But that ain't gonna become a point in your life
where you're going through, won't be through, won't.

Speaker 3 (06:52):
Nothing unless you then just gave up. And if you
done gave up, who wants that?

Speaker 2 (06:57):
Come on, y'all, this is going to take quite a
bit of effort, And if you think it'll come.

Speaker 3 (07:03):
To you any other way, you're sadly mistaken.

Speaker 2 (07:06):
Because of all the successful people I know, I know
that the effort they put out on a daily basis
is daunting, and I think that the average person just
doesn't understand the requirement of time and effort that it
takes to get that and willingness to put it out.
You got to cut a lot of monkey business out
your life, all that hanging out, all that late and

(07:28):
all that club and all that drinking, all that. You
got to cut a whole lot of monkey business out
to be successful. Man, if you're planning on being successful,
get up early, stay up late, work, try, think, meet, greet, smile, attract.

Speaker 3 (07:47):
It takes a lot let's go, but you can do it.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
God is pressed to passing out blessings all day long.

Speaker 3 (07:53):
Why are you not in line for yours?

Speaker 2 (07:55):
I'm telling you right now, I want everything God got
for me, because what he's.

Speaker 4 (07:59):
Shown me so far. Cool.

Speaker 3 (08:01):
If he got some mo man or man, how good
is God?

Speaker 1 (08:05):
Huh?

Speaker 6 (08:05):
You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 2 (08:12):
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls. This is the Steve
Harvey Morning Show. Well, welcoming all of you to say,
have a great day to day, reminding you that God
is in the blessing business. Remember everyone that God loves you.
It will never change and there's absolutely nothing that you

(08:35):
can do about it. So understand that, accept it and
appreciate it. That's grace. And He's in the forgiving business too,
So no matter what you've done, he's in the forgiving business.
Don't wallow any get up, keep walking. Steve Harvey Morning Show.
Shirley Strawberry calling for real Mississippi Monica Jr. In the
legend that he is nephew Tommy Jr. What's going on today, buddy?

Speaker 4 (08:57):
Well, huh, you know.

Speaker 7 (08:58):
It's a it's Christmas time.

Speaker 8 (09:00):
Time for Christmas plays have you been to a Christmas play,
you know you had no business at.

Speaker 2 (09:06):
The last time. I shouldn't have been at a Christmas play.
I was actually in it. Oh lord, what we said
a Christmas play. It was about a family that had
had a Christmas in I don't really remember what it
was about it. I didn't read the whole script. You
know that, Chris sounds like a problem.

Speaker 6 (09:26):
What what you do?

Speaker 3 (09:28):
I just read my line.

Speaker 2 (09:31):
I didn't read the whole script, so I don't really
I was in the family as a I was one
of the just a boy in the family, and I
had lines.

Speaker 3 (09:42):
Yeah, I just got to my part.

Speaker 2 (09:44):
I was playing Earnest in the play that so all
I read was the lines that Ernest.

Speaker 6 (09:50):
Said relate to the other characters.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
Well, to show you how I shouldn't have been in
the play, I didn't read nothing but Ernest line, So
I didn't know when I was supposed to say nothing.
But I had my lines memorized though. And the way
I did the play was when they put me in
the scene. It wasn't nobody talking, I figured that was me,

(10:17):
and then I blurt out my line. No actor at all.

Speaker 9 (10:22):
The same thing on your own show, The Steve Harvey show.

Speaker 2 (10:26):
I did that too. That's how I got started. That's
why that was the last play I was in. I
didn't I didn't think I should have been there.

Speaker 8 (10:34):
Now, Now, have you been to some plays? Use have
you been to any christ before?

Speaker 2 (10:39):
You know, we grew up in the church and we
had some bad moments at our church. We had sister
Abigail played Mother Mary. She was way too old for
that's no way she could have had the baby.

Speaker 3 (10:53):
Jesus, It's no way. It's just no way.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
And she wasn't attractive either, So pretty pretty pretty show.
God wouldn't have picked and.

Speaker 3 (11:07):
To have his son. I wouldn't have I was the Lord,
I wouldn't.

Speaker 2 (11:14):
I don't really haven't seen any pictures of Mary, but
I'm pretty sure she was attractive.

Speaker 3 (11:19):
Because if I'm God, I can get.

Speaker 2 (11:22):
Anybody to have my child, She's gonna be attractive. I
can assure you that my mother Mary was very attractive,
especially if I'm the Lord, because I'm just not that
loving of a god.

There is really something wrong with you.

Speaker 4 (33:15):
You're all right?

Speaker 6 (33:16):
Well?

Speaker 9 (33:19):
Can I tell you about this? It's going viral on
Reddit right now. Twenty five year old single woman with
no kids. Single woman, no kids, has earned her first
Christmas day off at her job, and she's looking forward
to not having to work. Okay, but now a co
worker with children who is scheduled to work that day

(33:39):
asked if she could switch with her so that she
could be home with her kids for Christmas. The younger
woman said no, because she earned the day off and
she does not want to give it up, even though
she admitted that she doesn't even celebrate Christmas. So the
single woman posted her dilemma on Reddit and received a
bunch of comments that she's being selfish, while others argue

(34:01):
that she earned the day off, so she should take it.
So what do you think should she give her the
day off?

Speaker 2 (34:06):
Well, I don't understand why she's mad at the lady
for earning her day off.

Speaker 3 (34:13):
How you mad at her?

Speaker 6 (34:15):
Well, I mean, why are they open for Christmas?

Speaker 4 (34:20):
What kind of job is.

Speaker 9 (34:22):
This, she doesn't say one of the jobs that are
open for Christmas.

Speaker 2 (34:28):
Because anyway, she asked a young girl could she switched so.

Speaker 6 (34:32):
She could spend Christmas Day with her kids?

Speaker 3 (34:34):
Yeah? I would have switched with the lady.

Speaker 6 (34:37):
Yeah, especially because the lady doesn't celebrate Christmas.

Speaker 2 (34:41):
And if she don't celebrate Christmas, what's the big deal
to you? If you have Wednesday off for Thursday off?

Speaker 4 (34:46):
What did I make to you?

Speaker 3 (34:47):
Right right?

Speaker 2 (34:49):
I would have switched. But ain't no need of you
being mad at the young girl. You need to talk
to your boss about that.

Speaker 9 (34:56):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, she was necessarily mad.

Speaker 6 (35:01):
But yeah, she put it a shoe. She did put
it out there, she posted it.

Speaker 3 (35:05):
Yeah, all right, we're over at Walmart.

Speaker 4 (35:08):
Walmart be oldmar Crew.

Speaker 6 (35:11):
I think, uh, I'm not sure.

Speaker 1 (35:13):
I think.

Speaker 9 (35:16):
Coming up twelve minutes after is the build up to
Christmas better than Christmas Day? We'll talk about that right
after this. You're listening Harvey Morning Show. Hey is Shirley Strawberry?
You know who taught me my ABC's and what it
means to be kind? Sesame Street Sesame Workshop, the nonprofit

(35:38):
behind Sesame Street. It's still doing that for kids everywhere.
Elmo and Cookie Monster are out there teaching kindness, empathy
and joy, but they need our help to keep it going.
So this holiday season, visit Sesame dot org and donate
what you can. Once again, please visit Sesame dot org
this holiday season because the world needs Sesame and Sesame

(36:00):
need you. According to an unpopular opinions post, for many,
the build up to Christmas is better than Christmas Day. Actually,
most respondents think that listening to Christmas music, putting up
the tree, the decorations, baking desserts, going to Christmas parties,
and shopping, that's all all the fun and exciting events

(36:20):
of the of the season. But then when Christmas Day
arrives and we've opened our presence, we've had dinner, there's
nothing else to be excited for. So the question is
the build up to Christmas?

Speaker 2 (36:33):
Uh?

Speaker 9 (36:34):
Is that what you enjoy? Or is it Christmas Day
and the time you spend with your family? Is that
more exciting?

Speaker 6 (36:40):
Which one?

Speaker 13 (36:41):
The build up or actual Christmas? I?

Speaker 6 (36:46):

Speaker 9 (54:46):
You, not for your subject. She's getting more than money
from him. Dear Stephen Shirley, I'm a fifty one year
old man and I have a wife, but I haven't
lived with her in four years. It's a long story,
but I'll try to make it brief. Four years ago,
my cousin had a bad divorce and he needed somewhere
to stay, so my wife and I let him rent
one of our side of a duplex we own. I

(55:09):
made him promise to be respectful to my older tenant
that shared the duplex with him, because she's a Christian
woman that loves peace and quiet.

Speaker 6 (55:17):
He moved in, and in less than two.

Speaker 9 (55:19):
Weeks, the old lady called me to complain about sex
noises coming from his side of the duplex.

Speaker 6 (55:25):
I talked to my cousin and asked him to knock
it off.

Speaker 9 (55:28):
I worked full time, so my wife manages our three
properties and collects the rent.

Speaker 6 (55:33):
But I'm the only one the old lady will talk to.

Speaker 9 (55:36):
She's never liked my wife, and one evening i'd stopped
by the duplex to put some reflective numbers on the
old lady's side of the duplex because she said her
girlfriends couldn't find her house at night. I pulled up
and my wife's car was parked in the sideyard, out
of plain view. I knocked on my cousin's door several

(55:57):
times and there was no answer. The old lady came
out of her and she told me that they can't
hear me knocking because they're in there having sex and
making a bunch of noise. I told her that I
think it's my wife in there, and she reminded me
that she has never liked my wife, and then said
this must be why. She told me that the car

(56:18):
is always over there, so my wife is coming by
for more than the rent money. I broke the window
and I got in there and tried to body slam
my cousin. My wife moved out of our house and
into the raggedy duplex with my cousin. It's been four
years and they're still together. I still can't get over it.

(56:40):
How could they do this to me? Well, because some
people are just low down and evil. You know, you
may still be married on paper, but you don't have
a wife. You may as well let that go because
she let it go a long time ago. She left
you then way back, and we can't pick our relatives,

(57:01):
so he's gonna be your trifling cousin forever. My advice
to you is to first get a divorce because clearly
this marriage is over. It's been four years. The next
thing I would do is put them out of the duplex.
Put them out. It's been four years. Your cousin should
be able to get his own place by now. He
shouldn't be living off you anyway. I mean, you said

(57:23):
you can't get over it, but you're gonna have to.
You're gonna have to move on with your life. I mean,
life does go on. Try to get back out there.
You know, if you have friends, you can hang out
with them to ease back into the dating scene. I
know you're fifty one, I know that, but that's okay.
You can ask a friend out for lunch, you know,

(57:44):
or for drinks. You gotta start going to like get
togethers and stuff like that, barbecues, church events, comedy shows.

Speaker 6 (57:51):
Tommy, aren't you touring now?

Speaker 5 (57:53):
Right?

Speaker 9 (57:53):
You can go see Tommy he's touring again. Yeah, you know,
you gotta do things to get yourself out there, and
the more you get out there.

Speaker 6 (58:01):
The easier it's going to be to get over.

Speaker 9 (58:03):
Your faithful, tricky, tricky tricky wife.

Speaker 6 (58:07):
Steve a.

Speaker 2 (58:11):
Boy, this letter right here is major league disappointing to me.
She's getting more than money from him. Now here's a
fifty year old guy. He says, and I have a wife,
but I ain't live with her in four years. Well

(58:33):
you can quit calling her your wife.

Speaker 4 (58:37):
Four years. Preey, pretty, we.

Speaker 2 (58:41):
We we passed the point of fix it.

Speaker 4 (58:47):
Four years. We're this over dog.

Speaker 5 (58:51):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (58:51):
Your cousin had a bad divorce and he needed somewhere
to stay, which means she took him to the cleaning
so he ain't got nothing. So your wife let him
rent a duplex in it. You promised to be respectful
of the older tenant that you share a deep duplex
with Christian Moman. She like peace and quiet. After two weeks,

(59:14):
the lady called and complain about sex noises coming from
his side of the deep duplex. So you went in
there and you talk to the dude, told him to
cut it out. You work full time, so your wife
manages the three properties and collects the rent. But I'm
the only person that the old lady would talk to
she's never liked my wife. This is very important information

(59:35):
as we go forward in this letter. The old lady
knew something soon as she met her. All women can
pick up on triflingness in a young woman. See one
thing about women, y'all. Women know each other. Women can

(59:56):
fool us men, but they can't fool each other. Girl, girl, girl,
I know that I've seen this movie before. I know
this whole scene. What you're doing.

Speaker 3 (01:00:07):
Women know.

Speaker 2 (01:00:08):
Bargie will spot some stuff that I would never even
dream of looking at it.

Speaker 3 (01:00:13):
She tripping. So the old lady knew something.

Speaker 2 (01:00:16):
One evening, stopped by the deep lex put some reflective
numbers on the old lady's house cause they can't find
her house at night because they hold you pull up
in the wife's car parked on the other side of
out of plane youth.

Speaker 3 (01:00:30):
So you knocked through your cousin doing and wasn't no answer.

Speaker 2 (01:00:32):
The old lady came out her doing, told me they
can't hear you knocking because they ain't not having sex
and making a bunch of noiss.

Speaker 4 (01:00:40):
Well, I told her, I think that's.

Speaker 3 (01:00:41):
My wife in there.

Speaker 2 (01:00:44):
She reminded me, I have never liked her. Now she
and not bringing your cousin. You need to get the
bust and windows or.

Speaker 9 (01:00:55):
Something, all right, Steve, hold on hold that thought. Okay,
we'll have part two of your response at twenty three
minutes after the hour. Strawberry letter for today, she's getting
more than money from him. We'll get back into it
right after this. You're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show. It's

today's Strawberry letter. The subject she's getting more than money
from him?

Speaker 2 (01:01:55):
Well, I'm gonna recap this letter and then we're going
to do a live reenactment. Okay, Shirley is gonna be
the woman, Tommy gonna be the.

Speaker 3 (01:02:08):
Guy, the cousin.

Speaker 2 (01:02:11):
Tommy, you know the trifling he got that Tommy gonna
be the trifling cousin. Shirley, you're gonna be the woman
that's in the house that's been collecting the rent. I'm
gonna be the old lady next door since the old day,
I'll stay next door.

Speaker 3 (01:02:29):
So here we go.

Speaker 2 (01:02:30):
A fifty one year old man uh then rented out
his place to his cousin. Told him be respectful as
an old lady lived next door, but the old lady
only talks to him because the old lady don't like
his wife, who controls the three properties and collects all
the rent. Well, two weeks into the cousin moving in there,
the lady call and complained about loud sex noises coming by.

(01:02:53):
The guy goes over there one night to change the
reflective lightness on her address so her people can see
her address at night. He get over there and the
lady come out complaining again, talking about some people in
here having loud sex noises. Where he noticed his wife's
car was in the driveway out of plane view, so
he said, wait a minute, that I think that's my

(01:03:14):
wife in there. The lady said, I told you that
I did not like her. Now she in here banging
your cousin and you standing out here.

Speaker 4 (01:03:25):
So now.

Speaker 2 (01:03:28):
She told me that the car was always over there.
So now my wife coming over promoting rent money. So
I broke the window and got in there and tried
to bodyslam my cousin.

Speaker 3 (01:03:42):
So I don't understand this.

Speaker 2 (01:03:43):
Part of the letter right here. I mean, see, if
you broke the window and you tried to body slam
your cousin. See, once I break the window, it's unfinished business.

Speaker 3 (01:03:55):
That's just the beginning.

Speaker 2 (01:03:59):
Breaking the wonder is a prelude me breaking your see
have got behind Yeah, we ain't.

Speaker 3 (01:04:05):
Got to that yet.

Speaker 2 (01:04:06):

because you got to climb through that winter, you're gonna

Speaker 4 (01:04:15):

Speaker 3 (01:04:20):

Speaker 2 (01:04:21):
So my wife moved out of our house and into
the raggedy Duplexum my cousin. It's been four years and
they still together. I still can't go over it. And
how I still can't get over how they do this
to me? How they did it, How they did it easy?

He's up now. This is Fantasia.

Speaker 7 (01:11:52):
Right now.

Speaker 3 (01:11:53):
You're listening to my man, the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 9 (01:11:57):
You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, Steve,
this is from Chauncey and Anniston. Chauncey says, my wife
and I have two daughters. One is married and one
is not. My wife and I get a lot of
flak for treating the single daughter better than the married one.
The married one says, we get the single daughter better gifts,

(01:12:17):
her husband spoils her, but that's not enough for her.
She expects us to make her a priority too. The
youngest one is single, so we help her out more.
How do we handle this situation?

Speaker 2 (01:12:30):
No, listen to me, when you when you gave her
away at that altar, she became his responsibility. Hell lord,
all of it. Don't don't call me with this him
what he doing. See, I'm your father, your daddy always.

(01:12:52):
But when I walk you down that aisle and I
hand you to him, you are now his priority and
his responsibility.

Speaker 3 (01:13:01):
Okay, all right, all that that changes, man.

Speaker 9 (01:13:07):
So and how do they handle the situation with the
oldest daughter? What they say that but you just said
because that was good?

Speaker 2 (01:13:15):
Well, because it's so I've see, I haven't had to
say this, except I've had to say it to my wife.

Speaker 3 (01:13:23):
What she married him for.

Speaker 2 (01:13:25):
See, I've had to say that to you, what she
married him, what he doing because see, what you're not
finn to do is come in here and marry into
this family and then benefit off me.

Speaker 3 (01:13:38):
Now, sir homie, you you.

Speaker 2 (01:13:40):
Trust and believe You're gonna have to get real busy
because I'm a full alarm for that. And so now now, no, no,
just she you are his responsibility. You want better gifts,
he spoils her, then that's good. Yeah, but I'm not
spoiling you and him spoiled. So now you're getting two
gifts exactly. Baby sister just getting this one gift because

(01:14:03):
she's single. I said, you're not getting to ask your
husband for some mom.

Speaker 3 (01:14:08):
Because he shouldn't.

Speaker 4 (01:14:09):
He shouldn't be letting her say nothing anyway. He shouldn't
be held.

Speaker 2 (01:14:13):
Chris the husband, he cannot know she over there. He
can't know that, right right? Yeah, said hey, hey.

Speaker 3 (01:14:25):

time for another one. This is from Jamilla in New Orleans.
Jamilla says, my boyfriend invited me to his parents' house
last weekend, and I saw one of his distance because
one of his distant cousins that I had sex with
when I was nineteen. I told my boyfriend and he
said he needed to know that info before I met

(01:14:55):
his family. I didn't think it mattered before then, because
I didn't know he knew the guy I slept with.
My honesty has affected my relationship. I didn't expect that.
Was I wrong for telling him put your hands down?
Put your hands down.

Speaker 3 (01:15:12):
