Speaker 1 (01:58):
Come on, you think that?

Speaker 5 (02:01):
Uh huh, I sure will.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
Good morning everybody.

Speaker 5 (02:05):
You're listening to the voice, Come on dig me now,
one and only Steve Harvey. I got a radio show.
Real grateful for that. You know, it's funny. I remember
when I first started out in radio. A lot of
my peers laughed at me. Some of it was being
mean spirited. Some of it was just you know, mocking me.
I'm used to stuff like that. But I had a

(02:28):
special guest on my show, Joe Oldstein, and you know something, man,
he said something that was I can't remember the scripture.
I don't know exactly how it were like, we were
having a long conversation, but the gist of it was,
don't be upset with where you are now, and don't
be upset with the small things in your life. Be
grateful for the small things and the small position that

(02:50):
you have right now, because you don't know where that's going.
You don't know what that's gonna be one day. You
don't know what that's gonna lead to. And that was
very warming to hear him say that. But it also
reminded me of when I started in radio, how small
it was. It reminded me of when I started in
stand up making twenty five dollars a show. It reminds

(03:10):
me of not having a home at a period in
my life and what God has allowed me to live
in now. So don't be distraught over your position now,
and don't be ungrateful or unappreciative for the things you
have now because you don't know what that's going to
grow into. And that's really the gist of that I

(03:30):
got from what he was saying. I just wanted to
share that with you, that where you are now is
so temporary because now, like I've said before, now is
a fleeting moment. Right after you finish saying now, that
moment that you claimed as now, that's gone. So the
where you are now is a very fleeting process. Now,
you can change where you are now, and you can

(03:54):
change how you feel about where you're at now, and
you can change about where you're going by simp changing
your mind.

Speaker 1 (04:02):
It is no difference.

Speaker 5 (04:04):
I'm telling you, folks, the thing that I've learned about
successful people is not so much of what they do.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
It's not what they have.

Speaker 5 (04:13):
The biggest thing I've learned about successful people is how
they think. That's the thing that's different. It's how they think.
And I'm telling you that you can change the way
you think on any subject and start becoming successful towards that.
Starting now, you have to understand that. Man, the biggest

(04:36):
difference I've noticed between successful people and non successful people
is how they think. I was reading what it's God
said that he was taught all wrong about money. He
said that his father was very negative about money. He
all throughout his life he heard his father say, you know,
people who got money have walked on somebody to get it,

(04:59):
or cheated solf to get it. People who have money,
money is the root of all evil. Money is money
is this And people who got money, you know, don't
deserve it.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
They've done something wrong to get it. Yah to y'all.

Speaker 5 (05:12):
So he said he grew up the whole time thinking
that having money was something was wrong with that. He
discovered that it wasn't. Look you can choose to be
successful anywhere you want to. I've chosen several ways to
be successful. I want to be a very, very successful father.
I think that's one of the things that's paramount in
my life that I really am working hard right now

(05:34):
to become a successful father. Not a successful father in
terms of money, but a successful father in terms of
offering the amount of love and guidance and leadership and
the example that my children need to look at. That's
what I'm really really working hard at now. I want
to be successful as a father, but also I want

(05:56):
to be successful as a husband.

Speaker 6 (05:58):
You know.

Speaker 5 (05:58):
I want Marjorie to always know that she can count
on me, to not have to wonder about me or
look for me.

Speaker 7 (06:04):
You know.

Speaker 5 (06:05):
I want her to feel secure in the fact that
I really have gotten it right, that I really am
focused on being a good husband to her because it
means so much to me, you know. So I'm working
hard on a lot of levels. I'm working hard and
trying very strong to be a successful motivator of people.

(06:26):
I want to be a share of information to people
that will uplift others and give others the same things
that I've learned through the trials and tribulations of my life.
But at the same time share that information and use
the power of this microphone to uplift people, you know,
not to destroy it. My show is not about Ooh,
guess what so and so said? Guess what so and

(06:47):
so did. I don't like mean spirited things about people,
you know. I joke with people who calling this that's
another thing. But I don't like destroying people with the
power of the microphone. So working very hard on being
successful in a lot of areas of my life now.
Also I do care about being financially successful too, because
my father. One of the gifts he gave me was

(07:07):
very simple gift. He told me a long time ago.
He said, son, the best thing you can do for
poor people is not be one of them. And that
stuck with me. And this was a hard working man
who was a coal miner who worked construction his entire life.
My father didn't have an easy life man. My father
didn't sit behind a microphone. My father didn't come to

(07:29):
work and people cheered for him. My father wasn't famous.
My father was just a go get it dude that
he instilled that in me, and I've taken that and
applied it to my craft and I thank God for
him for that.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
But I do try to.

Speaker 5 (07:43):
Be financially successful so that I can do some things
with it to help some other people. Now, am I
opposed to having nice things?

Speaker 7 (07:51):
No?

Speaker 6 (07:52):
Do I apologize for having nice things?

Speaker 7 (07:54):
No?

Speaker 1 (07:54):
And why should I? I work?

Speaker 5 (07:57):
You know, I'm not on the radio apps to give
me money, you know, so I can go buy a car.
I'm working, so I don't feel how you want to feel.
And other people do feel that way about it. But
if success in terms of finance is what you're lacking,
you can go about the business of doing that. I'm
writing a book, and that whole book is about teaching

(08:19):
people how to become successful. And man, I'm breaking it
down in a way where everybody can get it, man,
because I want the college student to get it, you know,
I want the working mom to get it, the single
mom to get it. The hard working father that has
been trying to hold his family together can get it.
The father that ain't ever got it together and feel

(08:39):
that because of that reason, he can't be the father
he needs to be. I'm writing something man, to put
it into words, to let you know that God is
a forgiving God, and that God is a merciful God,
and that God can get you out of any situation
you find yourself in. You just can't beat yourself up
every time you make a mistake. I make mistakes all

(09:01):
the time, man, I just got to remind myself to
get up. I ask God for forgiveness, I call on
his mercy and his grace, and I get up and
I go again. But it's coming, man. And if finance
success is what you want, you got to change your mind.
You got to start thinking about how to produce it.
The first thing you do is you gotta ask. You

(09:21):
got to ask to have a life and have a
life more abundantly. That's a scripture that He comes to
you to give you life and to give you life
more abundantly.

Speaker 1 (09:32):
That's a scripture That ain't a joke, that ain't a theory.

Speaker 5 (09:36):
That's a fact, and the fact that if you don't
have a life of abundance, you can get that by asking.
Then it starts by believing. And how too, don't even
worry about that. He takes care of that himself. He'll
send the stuff your way, but you got to be
willing to put some effort in this thing now, and
you can do it.

Speaker 6 (09:52):
Okay.

Speaker 5 (09:53):
I know I was a little around the place today,
but that's what it was. So you know, let's go
get it.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
That was my father.

Speaker 8 (10:29):
Man.

Speaker 5 (10:30):
I think that has a lot to do with the
how I am today. My father never gave me a
straight answer. It was always to make you think about
what you said.

do it for you.

same type of problems of trying to get pregnant and
so forth and so on, and uh, from my understanding,
your wife is what four five months pregnant. I'm not sure.

Speaker 9 (15:39):
Yeah, wait a minute, my wife is exactly five months pregnant.
But I'm still confused on how you're getting in touch
with me and what this has to do with me. Well,
I mean, all that stuff that we've gone through is
totally confidential, and I'm kind of offended that you're calling me.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
I understand that.

Speaker 13 (15:53):
Well, what's what's happening is I got a phone call
from the doctor's office today. It seems like there's been
a huge.

Speaker 1 (15:59):
Mistake by the doctor's office.

Speaker 13 (16:01):
Evidently your wife has been artificially inseminated with my seed.
And I was I mean, I'm just as disturbed as
you are, you know, what I mean, because I mean
me and my wife are you know, my wife is
too much pregnant, and finally.

And and.

Speaker 9 (16:35):
No, okay wait a minute, no, no, no, no, so mixed
that that doesn't happen, no way.

Speaker 13 (16:44):
So I'm trying to make sure I bring the news
to you and see if there's anything that we can
do to I mean, I mean, after being five months pregnant,
it's kind of hard to direct to fight a problem.

Speaker 9 (16:52):
So I want this to sound rude, and I don't
want to sound wrong. You said, baby daddy, are you black?

Speaker 1 (16:59):

Child support, and my wife is having some other black
dude's kid. Are you crazy?

Sesame needs you. It is time for a chief Love
officer to answer some love questions from you. This one's
from Donnie and Lexington. Donnie says, my mother and I
own a rental home in a not so good part
of town, and she's letting one of her old male

(22:23):
friends stay in the house and isn't charging him the
full rent. I think he's a bootlegger because there's a
stash of liquor in the basement and I have watched
people come and go from there. I told my mom
it's time to sell the property, and she got upset.
I suspect she might be part of his underground enterprise.

Speaker 1 (22:43):
How do I go against my mom?

Speaker 6 (22:46):
You can't. You can't.

Speaker 5 (22:48):

but his wife doesn't enjoy sex as much as I do,
so we have an arrangement. He said it's getting too
expensive and he wants to pay me a flat rate
monthly instead of each time he visits. I told him
he could get it free if he left his wife
and came back to me. He hasn't called me in

cry baby man that doesn't have a five year plan.

her husbands is dead, So why are we listening to
her old?

Anyway?

Speaker 6 (43:32):

no way, They just disappeared on her app So why
are we worrying about her? So you know, man, just well,
I won't love you, I'm gonna stay with you. I
want us to form a two handed circle, and we
don't want anybody else in it there. And she may
be well meaning, but she don't mean well. And I'd

(43:56):
like to just let you know that I'm here for you.
I'll do anything for you. But she is messing it
up for us. And I'm asking you to ignore her
because look at her lonely. That's why she got time,

monochromatic and that's what a lot of the guys were
asking for.

Speaker 14 (56:40):
Subject My Holy Lover's Daily Life, A double life, My
Holy Lover's Double Life. Stephen Shirley, I'm in the three
way love affair with a man that is my pastor
and my marriage counselor. I went to my pastor a
year ago to get spiritual guidance so I could stay
on the street narrow in my marriage. I was thinking

(57:01):
about cheating and had one foot out the door. My
pastor is married, so I meet with his wife on
Wednesdays for spiritual guidance, and I meet with them both
once a week to overcome the boredom in my marriage.
Over the course of a few weeks, my pastor found
out about my past life as a.

Speaker 1 (57:20):
Dancer, and he used it to his advantage.

Speaker 14 (57:23):
He told me that if I can make amends with
my past and put it behind me, I would be
able to be a happy housewife. He told his wife
that it's best for its best that he and I
do one on one sessions, so I started seeing him alone.
He had me do an interpretive dance for him, which
is basically a strip tease. Without taking my pants off.

(57:48):
I could tell he was aroused, so I lost my
mind temporarily and went over to give him a lap dance.
From there, we went back into the closet of his
office and I closed the deal with him. He's been
paying me for dances for the last three weeks, and
not only did it fire up something in me, I
realized I am sitting on my real moneymaker. Although I'm

(58:10):
thirty six years old, I'm still in great shape and
I have all I need to get the bills paid.
Pastor is a lot happier too, and he has told
me that my marriage will never work because my husband
lacks self esteem and can't deal with a sexy woman
like me. I love my husband and the stability that
he provides, but the pastor is well and doubt and

(58:32):
makes me feel like myself again, My holy lover has
a double life, and I'm so confused about what I
should do. Should I end my affair with my pastor?

Speaker 7 (58:42):
Hmm?

Speaker 14 (58:44):
Should you end your affair with the pastor? You ask, well,
you know what they say if you got to ask,
and I'll answer you this way. Do you want to
go straight to hell?

Speaker 1 (58:56):
Is that what you're aiming for here? Straight?

Speaker 18 (58:58):
There?

Speaker 1 (58:59):
Is that what you're trying to do because you're stripping
for your pastor?

Speaker 14 (59:04):
Okay, I don't know if you've completely wrapped your mind
around that. Of course, he of all people should know better.
I mean not only that instead of leading you to Christ,
he's corrupting you in the worst way. I mean, nothing
about this is right. You know this, Nothing about this
is godly, Nothing about this is Christian. Nothing about this

(59:25):
is helping you in your marriage. Nothing. It's just wrong
on every level. I mean, there's some things in life
that you should know that you should not do, and
this is one of them. There's nothing redeeming in this letter,
and I just got to say it again. You're stripping
for your pastor, your lap dancing for your pastor, your

(59:46):
married pastor, the same pastor who talked badly about your
man said he had low self esteem, can't deal with
a sexy woman like you? Or excuse me, I'm sorry.
Was that supposed to be counseling that he gave you
when he talked about that?

Speaker 1 (59:58):
I don't know. This is terrible. He's in no position,
this pastor, to give you any advice.

Speaker 14 (01:00:05):
And I don't want you to be confused any longer
because you say you're so confused about what you should do.

Speaker 1 (01:00:10):
You gotta stop this. Okay, pull yourself together, girl, think
about what you're doing. You gotta break up with this pastor.
This is foolishness.

Speaker 14 (01:00:17):
Have you even considered that his wife may come in
his office at some point or your husband may find out?

Speaker 1 (01:00:24):
How are you gonna live that down? I just don't
understand what you're doing.

Speaker 14 (01:00:28):
This is craziness. You gotta You've gotta let this go.
And the pastor does not need to be a pastor.

Speaker 1 (01:00:35):
Steve my holy lover's double life.

Speaker 5 (01:00:41):
To me, this letter is a lot about the pastor
that's got a lot to do with her, but it's
a lot about what It's a lot about both of them. Oh,
just Stephen, Shirley, I'm in a three way love affair
with a man that is my pastor and marriage counselor.

Speaker 6 (01:01:03):
He's your pastor and your marriage counselor.

Speaker 5 (01:01:08):
You're in a three way love affair with your pastor,
massag So he done counseled you.

Speaker 6 (01:01:14):
He done counseled you right into his arms. That's the
counseling he did.

Speaker 5 (01:01:20):
I went to my past a year ago to get
spiritual guidance so I could stay on the straight and
narrow in my marriage. Now listen to this. I was
thinking about cheating and had one foot out the door.
You told him the snake the serpent that you was

(01:01:42):
thinking about cheat.

Speaker 6 (01:01:44):
You know what he heard, Oh she want to step out.
Oh I'm counseling this hill.

Speaker 5 (01:01:52):
So then you said you had a foot out your door.
Your pass is marriage. So you meet his wife on
Wednesdays for spiritual Now this this is wild Wednesday's right here,
because you go down there on wild Widnesday to meet
with his wife for some guidance. Indeed, ain't no nobody

(01:02:12):
giving you information that you need once a week to
overcome the boredom in my marriage?

Speaker 6 (01:02:19):
Wait what, I'm confused?

Speaker 5 (01:02:23):
You go talk to another marriage couple to overcome the
boredom in your marriage, but you leave your husband at home, right.
I don't understand how you accomplish getting over boredom when
you got When you're taking up time to meet with
them both and just her on a Wednesdays, that's two

(01:02:47):
meetings a week where you could be at the house
being excited.

Speaker 1 (01:02:53):

Speaker 1 (01:03:50):
Holy lover's double life, and YO double life too.

Speaker 5 (01:03:53):
Hell, I'm at three way love affair with a man
that's my past and my marriage counselor.

Speaker 6 (01:04:00):
He thene counseled you right into his arms.

Speaker 5 (01:04:02):
I went to my past a year ago to get
spiritual guidance so I can stay on the straight and
narrow in my marriage. I was thinking about cheating and
had one foot out the door. You told the snake
in the grass that you didn't know was the snake
in the grass yet that you was thinking about cheating.

Speaker 1 (01:04:17):
Oh, duly noted.

Speaker 5 (01:04:21):
Then your pastor is married too, so you meet with
his wife on Wednesday. We're gonna call you wild Wednesdays.
All wacky Wednesdays, we having the whacky meeting with the
pastor's wife, which obviously ain't nobody giving you no valuable
information in none of these meetings, because all your meeting
that led to is an affair with the pastor without
his wife, Because.

Speaker 1 (01:04:43):
Then you said.

Speaker 5 (01:04:46):
You meet with them both once a week to overcome
the boredom in your marriage. Over the course of a
few weeks, your pastor found out about my past life
as a dancer.

Speaker 6 (01:04:57):
You told him. You the gators due all he needed.
Let's think about this.

Speaker 5 (01:05:03):
You told your husband you bored you, and told your
pastor you bored You, then told your pastor you was
thinking about cheating, and you then told your pastor you
was a dancer. Big mean, that's the trifecta. He got
it all, lot of rebels going off. I told him
my past life, I was a dancer, and he used

(01:05:24):
it to his advantage. You add that into the fact
that you want to cheat and you bored at the house,
and we got a problem. He told me that if
I could make amends with my past and put it
behind me, I would be able to be a happy housewife.
I don't understand that counselor at all, but okay, he

(01:05:45):
told his wife that it's best that he and I
do one on one sessions and hunt.

Speaker 7 (01:05:52):
Damn.

Speaker 1 (01:05:52):
I thought that was good. Okay, so I started seeing him.

Speaker 5 (01:05:57):
Alone he had me do as soon as you got
to he had you do an interpretive dance for him,
which is basically a strip tease without taking my pants off.
This is so you could come to terms with your
past and be a better housewife. When he asked you
to do the dance, I could tell he was a rouse. Well,

(01:06:21):
if you've given him a lap dance, you're gonna be tell.

Speaker 1 (01:06:28):
You're gonna be able to tell.

Speaker 6 (01:06:29):
Yeah, you're gonna tell like you know, like it ain't
like you psychic.

Speaker 1 (01:06:34):
I can tell you that right now. It's stupid. The
lap dance.

Speaker 5 (01:06:38):
I could tell he was a rived like you like
like like you like you a psychic or something. I
can tell you right there. Anybody would have been in there,
would he knew that? Tell a dude to sitting next
to him at the strip club.

Speaker 1 (01:06:51):
Know that man. Anyway, I could tell he was a rise.

Speaker 5 (01:06:57):
So I lost my mind temporarily and I went over
to give him a lap dance. And then from there
we went back into the closet of his office and
I closed to.

Speaker 1 (01:07:08):
Deal with him.

Speaker 5 (01:07:10):
Now this old food been paying you for dances for
the last three weeks, and not only did it fire
up something in me, here we go, I realized I'm
sitting on my real money maker. He that asked you
to come to terms with your past, and obviously the

(01:07:31):
thing you came to terms with was he thatne brought
it back to current. So now what you used to do,
he got you now doing for him, because guess what,
Although she say I'm thirty five years old, he been
paying you for dancers for the last three weeks and
I'm thirty six. I'm still in great shape and I
have all I need to get the bills paid. I

(01:07:53):
thought you was in there for Madge counselor. You ain't
said nothing about you was broke. You did not mention
you is broke. So now somewhere in the counselor is
section session you told him you was born.

Speaker 6 (01:08:07):
You told him he was thinking about cheatney. You told
him he used to be a dancer.

Speaker 5 (01:08:11):
And somewhere in there you to mention you ain't got
no money. And he done told you you need to
resolve your past. So now he got you bringing your
past to the present. Now you think you're finna be
a full time stripple. Pastor is a lot happier too,
and he has told me that this pastor dog, your
marriage would hit. My marriage would never work because my

(01:08:32):
husband lacks self esteem. Kate deal with a sexy woman
like me.

Speaker 1 (01:08:35):
But he can't.

Speaker 5 (01:08:37):
Of course he paying. I love my husband and the
stability that he provides.

Speaker 1 (01:08:41):
I thought you was broke. What is you dancing to
pay the bills for him.

Speaker 6 (01:08:48):
You love your husband and the stability he provides.

Speaker 1 (01:08:51):
What kind of letter is this?

Speaker 5 (01:08:56):
It don't make no sense, but the pastor is well
and it makes me feel like myself again. My holy
lover has a double life, and I'm so confused. You
got one too about what I should do. Now, here's
the golden line in this whole thing. Should I end
my affair with my pastor?

Speaker 1 (01:09:18):
Lady?

Speaker 6 (01:09:19):
How does sound to you?

Speaker 7 (01:09:21):
Right?

Speaker 5 (01:09:23):
Shirley said, do you want to go straight to hell?
I would like to add to that statement and say,
do you want to go to hell with your pastor?
Because I thank y'all going on a buddy past That's
what I think.

saw I wasn't gonna be able to keep up with
where it was going. Now, you had a lot of
time to spend money on yourself, but you've done it
for everybody else. And now you're sitting up in here
wanting to burn a Christmas law when you have spent

(01:13:23):
all your money on that dog. And now you're sitting
up here and you to wrote a poem like this,
and you think me and Tommy gonna buy your fish.

You got another thing coming.

Speaker 5 (01:13:34):
If you think that's true, because you ain't nothing but
a grad big old food. I thank you for the
poem in the time you spent, but you ain't gonna

Speaker 1 (01:13:51):
And that was off the cup. Baby.

Speaker 14 (01:13:57):
You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show, all right?
So this is from Facebook from Dre. Dre writes, I
have a family friend who'd hit hard times. However, this
family friend also has a reputation for lying and not
paying people back. Now he's trying to guilt me and

(01:14:19):
my entire family, talking about I'm turning my back on him. Well,
that's where I am right now, and I'm in the
position to help. But I know darn well I will
never see the money back since no one else can
really help or is willing to. I'm like Tupac, all
eyes on me, man, I'm not going to change my mind.

Speaker 1 (01:14:40):
So am I wrong?

Speaker 7 (01:14:41):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:14:42):
No to see me.

Speaker 5 (01:14:45):
See, you can't create a track record and then try
to get off the track in front of somebody you'd ran.

Speaker 6 (01:14:54):
Around on all this time. It's just not how it works.

Speaker 5 (01:14:57):
Yes, heay man, When you create a reputation, then you're
gonna have to You're gonna have to lay You make
a bed, you gotta lay in it. Dog, I'm sorry
you don't pay people back. Now you're backing me talking
about y'all turning your back. Yeah, okay, cool, But here's
the deal with me. If you did not have my number,
what would you do?

Speaker 6 (01:15:18):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:15:19):
See, naw, gonna get to doing that because you already
know I got it, So you don't save all that
with me. I tell people all the time. First of all,
hey man, let me holler at you now. Okay, I'm
gonna wait seventy two hours.

Speaker 6 (01:15:32):
Wore I return that from him?

Speaker 5 (01:15:34):

Speaker 7 (01:16:14):
No, no, you know why you asked?

Speaker 1 (01:16:18):
Why you asked?

Speaker 3 (01:16:18):
Junior?

Speaker 1 (01:16:19):
Sound like somebody I might know everybody? No, No, it's
not Alvin.

Speaker 10 (01:16:26):
No, No, I was gonna ask you. But he feels guilty,
So how does he deal with that guilt? Feeling guilt is.

Speaker 6 (01:16:33):
The most useless emotion that we have as human beings.

Speaker 1 (01:16:37):
Yeah, he serves no purpose. What's the purpose of guilt.

Speaker 6 (01:16:42):
No, stop, Why why you got to feel guilt that
he's not your child?

Speaker 1 (01:16:47):
Yeah, he's your friend, a family friend.

Speaker 6 (01:16:50):
He's not your child, y'all ain't took no vows.

Speaker 5 (01:16:53):
He's not your wife. No, he a family friend that
ain't been much of a friend, right, all right, you
all have a one sided friendship. Now I'm gonna let
you go over there and stay on your side for
a while.

Speaker 14 (01:17:09):
All right, Let's see if we have time for another one.
This one's from Nicole on Steve HARVFM. She says, my
husband and I went out of town to have Thanksgiving
with his family. He started drinking with his brother at noon,
and by the time dinner was served, they were both
drunk as heck. He embarrassed himself in front of his
whole family, and I was left to take care of

(01:17:31):
him and then drive us home afterwards. We're supposed to
go again at Christmas, and I told him I'm not
going now. He thinks I'm being unreasonable and is mad
at me. I haven't done anything wrong and I shouldn't
be made to feel bad after what he put me through.

Speaker 1 (01:17:46):
Steve backed me up. Am I wrong? Am I overreacting?

Speaker 5 (01:17:50):
Best office is a good excuse me. The best defense
is a good offense. So now he defensive about what
he did. And so now he done took the offense us.
Now he mad at you for his getting drunk, and
you not understand.

Speaker 6 (01:18:10):
Man.

Speaker 5 (01:18:10):
Please bye, ladies, stop letting these men out mad you.

Speaker 1 (01:18:15):

have more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 1 (01:18:44):
Right after this. You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 10 (01:18:52):
Imagine you gave your wife a gift that you thought
was perfect for her, and months later you see her
sister wearing it.

Speaker 1 (01:19:00):
This happened to a man in Iowa, Yep.

Speaker 10 (01:19:02):
Tommy. His wife admitted that she gave the gift to
her sister as a last minute birthday gift. He was
not happy. So how do you feel about regifting? Was
the wife entitled to do whatever she wanted to do
with her gift?

Speaker 1 (01:19:15):
Not not with something I didn't bought? Yeah, I don't
tell you that right now.

Speaker 13 (01:19:20):
Jackie's sister Natalie cannot be walking around with what I
bought Jackie at all.

Speaker 10 (01:19:26):
Okay, so no to the regifting because you gave it
to your wife and that's not it. It's not in
a good look.

Speaker 1 (01:19:34):
That ain't cool at all.

Speaker 5 (01:19:35):
No, no, no, that's that's not I don't care if
you don't like it, which I obviously she didn't know
she did.

Speaker 1 (01:19:43):
No, don't, I don't. I don't know. You can't do that.
That's rude.

Speaker 2 (01:19:47):
Yeah it is.

Speaker 6 (01:19:48):
I buy a gift, man, put all my thought into
this and then you give it to somebody.

Speaker 1 (01:19:53):
Yeah, you know what is this gift?

Speaker 7 (01:19:56):
Though?

Speaker 1 (01:19:56):
What did he buy that his wife didn't want?

Speaker 7 (01:19:58):
What is that?

Speaker 1 (01:20:00):
I don't know. It was the last minute.

Speaker 10 (01:20:01):
She decided at the last minute to give it to
her sister, last minute birthday gift.

Once again, that's Sonos dot com.

Speaker 6 (01:25:11):
All right, close remarks.

Speaker 5 (01:25:14):
Yeah, you know what, Let me encourage people today because
I want to. I want to empower everybody that's listening today.
Here's some an interesting piece of information that you have
to embed in your thinking. Because you have the power
of choice, you can actually decide, you can actually decide

(01:25:37):
how you choose to live your life, and you can
have a direct say so in the outcome of your life.
Life is not just you waking up and you playing
the cards you dealt. Now, life has some of those.
You're gonna be dealt a blow sometimes you're gonna dealt
a disappointment you're gonna have to You're gonna be dealt
some grief. You're gonna be dealt, some setbacks. Those are

(01:26:00):
the cards of life. But life is ten percent what
happens to you. It's ninety percent what you do about it.
Everybody gets dealt these cards at one time or another,
but everybody handles it differently. And the difference between successful
people and non successful people are the way you handle

(01:26:22):
the cards.

Speaker 6 (01:26:23):
You are dealt, and you have the power to decide
how you do that.

Speaker 5 (01:26:29):
The best way to handle it is to have a
positive outlook towards everything. And I know that sounds difficult,
and it's virtually impossible to maintain all the time, even
for me. But for the most part, I maintain a
positive outlook, a positive a positive attitude. I say it

(01:26:51):
on the radio sometime, and you begin it. If you
start with gratitude gratitude affects your attitude, your attitud to
determine your altitude. I call it the three tudes, gratitude, attitude, altitude,
And that's the part that a lot of people miss.
You think that you have to buy into a bad day,

(01:27:15):
You really don't. And you can start with the way
you think. First of all, here's a definite daykiller if
you make the announcement, if you lay claim, I'm not
a morning person. Do you even understand what you've done?

(01:27:38):
Can you understand the magnitude of that statement alone, I'm
not a morning person. Well, that's kind of crazy to me,
because seeing as how the goal is to wake up
every morning, why would you not be a morning person?
But you know how many people you've heard lay claim

(01:27:58):
to that, And look at everybody you know that says
I'm not a morning person. It explains a lot about
where you are. Listen to me. I love mornings. I
love waking up. I really like being up before the
suns come up. I like to wake up and hear
the birds praising God any morning. Do you know that

(01:28:20):
the birds have enough sing enough sense that when the
sun is cracking the sky, they start chirping.

Speaker 1 (01:28:29):
They praising. They're announcing a new.

Speaker 5 (01:28:30):
Day, rooster's crow, birds chirping, sing because it's a new day.
They're all grateful for it. Why would you not be.
Stop saying negative things to start your day wrong. I
got up on the wrong side of the bed. Okay,
get back in it and put your feet on the
other side.

Speaker 1 (01:28:51):
You get to.

Speaker 5 (01:28:52):
Determine that, man, you really really do. Stop buying into something.
Somebody talking about you they don't know you. Somebody posting
something about you online that's not true. What does it
really change unless you buy into it. I get stuff
posted about me online all the time that's so far
from truth.

Speaker 1 (01:29:12):
But guess what.

Speaker 5 (01:29:13):
I quit reading that stuff, man, I quit letting people
call me with it. Man, you all right what you mean?

Speaker 13 (01:29:19):
Tom?

Speaker 1 (01:29:19):
Are you see what they said?

Speaker 7 (01:29:21):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:29:21):
I didn't see what they said. Who is they? The internet?

Speaker 8 (01:29:24):
Boy?

Speaker 1 (01:29:25):
Are you for real?

Speaker 5 (01:29:27):
You're calling me to tell me what the internet said
when the Internet don't know me? Bruh, Listen to me.
You know what helps me a lot. Martin Luther King
had a saying. Martin Luther King said, a man can't
ride your back unless you bend over. I don't bend over.
You're not riding my back. I give nobody the power

(01:29:49):
of my life except God Almighty. Here's the author and
the architect of my being and my future. And I
don't care what you say say on the internet.

Speaker 15 (01:30:01):
Or the podcast. You are not the architect and author
of my being or my future. You can't destroy me
because you didn't make me.

Speaker 1 (01:30:13):
And I got news for you.

Speaker 5 (01:30:14):
You can't stop nothing God got for me. Do you
know something, y'all? If God gives you something, there is
nothing no man can do about it. And they better
be careful. They need to be careful because if God
has blessed you, if God meant for you to have it,
and then you see you see a person coming along
trying to take it from you, or or oh careful,

(01:30:38):
be very very careful. You people are not by themselves.
People who love the Lord are not by themselves.

Speaker 1 (01:30:47):
Man.

Speaker 5 (01:30:48):
They got a friend, they got they got they got
a power greater than you are me. So be very
careful when you start touching God's people. People that love God,
people pray people, people that's annoying it. People that God
got on assignment, people that God got a plan for
I'm on assignment.

Speaker 6 (01:31:07):
I have an assignment.

Speaker 1 (01:31:08):
I'm on.

Speaker 7 (01:31:09):
Now.

Speaker 5 (01:31:10):
You can knock me if you want to, but be
very careful. Now, I'm not supposed to say anything to you.
Every now and then I get human, though. Every now
and then I just I'm just human. I ran up
into somebody that said something real negative about me something
one time. I just, you know, I should have ignored
it and played it off, because God don't need my help.

(01:31:31):
Vengeance is mind, said the Lord. But when I saw him,
I didn't see the Lord at that time. So let
God have stay on the wall.

Speaker 9 (01:31:42):
Y'all.
