dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey got a
radio show today, folks. I just want to dive right
in because I think I got it here. It is.

(02:18):
Did you know that there is a life for you
that's greater than you could have ever dreamed of? Did
you know that there's a life for you better than
the one you've ever felt before? And did you know
that there was a life for you much bigger than

(02:41):
the one you wanted? And lastly, did you know that
what I just said is true? Did you know that
did you know that the things I just said are
available to you? It's not just intended for those who

(03:03):
receive awards. It's for everybody. Yeah, you too, It's for
you who didn't get your high school diploma. It's for
you who are incarcerated. It's for you who have two strikes.

(03:29):
It's for you who've been sentenced to life. It's for
you who've gotten out and have a felony record and
can't seem to get it together. It's for you who
have an illness. It's for you who the doctors have
given up on. It's for you. This life I'm talking

(03:54):
about is for you. Did you know that there is
a life for you better than the one you dreamed about,
better than the one you've imagined, a life better than
the one you thought of, That there's a life for
you better than the one you've ever felt before. There's

(04:16):
a life for you better than the one you saw
for yourself. There's a better life for you than the
one you expected and even the one you wanted. Did
you know that this is true for you? See, here's
let me give you the secret to this thing. Now
you have to believe that it is for you. Now,

(04:40):
you gotta fight through the doubts. You gotta fight through
the wiel of satan, because the devil is busy man.
The devil wants you to think that it's hopeless. The
devil wants you to think that this is it The
devil wants you to think that ain't no more to it.
The devil wants you to think that this applies to
other people. But you, Yeah, you've been dealt the worst
hand of them all, which you ate. But that's what

(05:02):
the devil wants you to think. So you gotta fight through. Now,
You gotta fight through to get to what I just
said is available for you. But what else you got
to do? You ain't doing nothing else, might as well fight.
Why just wake up and just let it be? Why
would you wake up every day and just exist when
there's a chance for you to actually live? See the

(05:22):
reason I don't mind smiling so much now is because
I'm no longer existing. I'm living now. See. See, that's
what you want to get to. You don't want to exist,
to wake up paycheck to paycheck, date today, not knowing,
not understanding, not have and can't can't get this, can't
get that, can't go here, can't go there, Gota wait,

(05:44):
gota wait, goda wait, goda wait till it seems like
you never get nowhere. You can get out of that
rut of life, feeling like when you wake up in
the morning that your life is whole hum that you
just in a rut. I drive the same way to work.
I do the same thing on my job. When I
get off, I drive all the way back home. I
sit there, I read the newspaper. I watered the lawn.

(06:06):
I'm so sick of my life. It ain't this, ain't
what I wanted, man, and start wak up and start over,
do the same thing. Then the weekend gets in. You
got to mold the lawn, and then you try to
fix something in the garage, and you feel like your
life is in a rut. I'm talking about if this
feels like a rut to you, and if it's what
you've always wanted, I'm cool with that. But I'm talking
to people who want it more, who would love their

(06:30):
life to be more, who would love their life too
different to be different. Now, I'm not criticizing you if
I just described your life. I'm just only talking to
the ones who would dad to believe that there's more
to it than this. I'm only talking to the ones
who would dad to accept the challenge to fight through

(06:51):
and see what God got for you. Instead of listening
to Satan all the time. Devil is busy, man. Please
understand he's so busy, so busy, trying to treat you,
get you into the crove. You know they doing all
kinds of stuff now, man, you know atheists and already
got prayer taken out of schools. Excuse me, look at
our skills schools, not as a push by the atheists

(07:12):
to get the words in God we trust, taking off
our money. Here's a deal. If you don't believe in God,
and you don't want trust in God, just going about
your business. But what you can't do is spill off
all into what I'm talking about. That's the problem I
have with all of them. If you're gonna do you,
then't do you, but don't spill off into what I got. Now. See,
if you don't believe what I'm saying, then I ain't
talking to you. Let's just be clear about the relationship

(07:35):
with Steve Harvey and his crew. I'm only talking to
the people that believe that are looking for something else,
that want something more, that wants something better, that's got
to be out there searching and hoping and trying to
do more. That's all I'm talking to now. If you
don't believe what I'm saying is true, then't go ahead,
try it your way, go see, write me, email me,

(07:57):
let me know how it's going for you. But I'm
telling you of a way that's tried and true. If
you go to God, if you go to your creator,
your maker, if you go to him and you go
to him for real and tell him, hey, you know what,
I want you to go ahead and take over from here.
I'm done. I'd have done all I know how to

(08:18):
do outa tried everything I know how to try. I'm
sick of me right now. Hey look here, you created
me what you want me to do, and you had
the cool thing about it. When I made that decision, y'all. See,
I was so afraid for years that I was going
to miss out on something if I did that. I
couldn't do this no more. But the stuff I needed
to stop doing. I really need to stop the things

(08:38):
I was afraid of not being able to do anymore,
with the very same things I really didn't need to
be doing no more in the first place. On the
real man, on the real all that temporary fun I
was having all them temporary outlets. I was using all
them temporary things, trying to fulfill myself I was doing.
I was just doing a bunch of temporary mess man.

(09:00):
I said, hold up, man, I want something permanent. Man,
I want a permanent feeling in my heart that it's
gonna be all right. So he replaced all that fun
with joy. But it was only because I went and
I faced him. He didn't take me and stopped me
from being me. He just made a better version of me. See,
God don't take he because all the stuff he sent

(09:22):
you through, he needed you to go through all him.
He needed you to have him experience of what it
felt like to be locked up. He needed you to
have experience and know what it was to lose everything.
He needed you to have experience to make you tough.
You just gonna be a tough one. I'm a tough
soldier in his army. That's all. I just say. One
of the weak ones. I protect the weak ones. God

(09:45):
didn't take a lot of stuff from except the stuff
I needed. But the stuff he made me to be,
He allowed me to keep it, and he just made
it better of me. Do that, y'all and you can
have what you want.

great kid and he's got a good heart, and he's
really really really trying and trying to produce as much
as possible.

Speaker 19 (43:48):
Well, you know, he loves the game and he's been playing.

Speaker 15 (43:50):
Since he was a little kid.

Speaker 5 (43:52):
Yeah, yeah, you know, this is you know, this is
the seventh grade. This is the first time some of
these kids have played organized football, and this is the
first time playing school football. And it's it's a big
it's a big transition that if you've been playing Little
league ball or Pop Warner or whatever you want to
call it. It's a it's a big difference, in a
big transition to go from one to the other. You understand, Yeah,

(44:16):
I do understand.

Speaker 19 (44:17):
But Malik is been working really hard, yes, and he's ready.

Speaker 5 (44:19):

main reason for calling you is letting you know that
Malague as of right now, is not going to be
able to make the cut as far as what you think, Well,

as far as being on the team for this year.

he didn't play Pop Warner and he was a SUNN quarterback,
So what are you talking about. He's not going to
make the team this year. He was the best they
had out on that squad.

Speaker 5 (45:01):
Okay, and you know what, I've heard a lot about him.
I heard he did a great job.

Speaker 15 (45:06):

twenty touchdowns in the season?

Speaker 15 (45:11):
I who know the kids is out there doing that.

Speaker 5 (45:13):
But you know what, but right now, we got a
lot of different kids that are coming into this particular school,
so you know, the competition has gone greater and greater
than what we could possibly understand.

Speaker 19 (45:24):
Wait a minute, when this is seventh grade, first of all,
everybody makes the team. Nobody gets cut in the first place.

Speaker 15 (45:30):
You got an A team and a B team.

Speaker 19 (45:32):
So you're telling me my baby ain't made none of
them teams?

great kid and he's a ballplayer.

Speaker 19 (45:46):
Now I make sure that so don't come telling me
that he's not good enough to make.

Speaker 15 (45:50):
The cut on this seventh grade team. Well, come telling

Your son, well, I mean you know.

Speaker 5 (46:06):

get itself together and get the fundamentals together together, a
greater football player when he gets to be headed to
the eighth grade.

He was the wrong this thaw last year. What you
talking about this fundamentals together? Your son ain't never even played.

Speaker 5 (47:21):
Well, you know what. I've worked with my son and
you know, and it's a little it's a little awkward
for me to try to talk about what my son
has done.

Speaker 15 (47:30):

it for you. Here. It is from the smart Man
Strawberry Letter.

Speaker 4 (52:18):
Who's that all right?

Speaker 10 (52:20):
Subject I'm stressed out in my classroom. Dear Stephen Shirley.
I am a thirty two year old man, and I
just started a job teaching adults that are getting a
ged I'm loving it so far, but I need advice
on how to handle a very aggressive female student in
her early sixties. At the end of one of my lectures,

(52:43):
she approached me and asked, what Jim I go to
because I have a very nice body. I blushed and
didn't know what to say. She winked at me and left.
Another day, she showed up to class in a very
revealing outfit and said she was going out afterwards with
her girls and invited me to join them because she
was looking for a young guy who could keep up
with her on the dance floor. I told her I

(53:05):
don't have a lot of time for that, but the
truth is she scares the heck heck out of me.
The next day, she came to class with a bag
of cherries. She said they were from a tree in
her backyard and for fun, she likes the tie. She
likes to tie the cherry stems in knots with her tongue,
and she asked me if I would like.

Speaker 4 (53:26):
To watch her do it.

Speaker 10 (53:27):
She said it was a gift for me being such
a good teacher, and then she told me to pick
the darkest cherries because they have the sweetest juice. Then
she winked at me again and left. I'm an Asian
guy and she's a dark brown woman, so I hope
she won't think it's a race thing when I firmly
reject her and tell her that she's being inappropriate. I

(53:49):
can't risk any rumors of impropriety at work.

Speaker 13 (53:52):
And she's old enough to be my mother, So she
does not turn me on at all?

Speaker 10 (53:56):
How can I stop her from acting out and making
these commons without upsetting her? I get very stressed out
knowing she's coming to class. You should see her, Please
help me. Well, I gotta say, first of all, it's
a great service you're providing, so thank you for that.

Speaker 4 (54:12):
Teaching adults ged, that's great.

Speaker 10 (54:15):
Thank you As for your very aggressive and way over
the top cougar student. Yeah, she's out of order, she's
out of line. And you know what, if it were
the other way around, where an older man was harassing
his young student, this letter would take a whole another turn.
So you're going to have to do what you have
to do here, you know. Yeah, you don't want to
get in trouble for impropriety. Like you say, she doesn't

(54:38):
turn you on. She's being very inappropriate as.

Speaker 1 (54:43):
A student either.

Speaker 10 (54:45):
You're going to have to be firm with her in
no uncertain terms. You will not tolerate that in your classroom.
If she continues, you're going to have to ask her
to leave. You can ignore her every time she does anything,
simply ignore her. But it's because she's so aggressive.

Speaker 4 (55:02):
I think you need to.

Speaker 10 (55:03):
Firmly sit her down and tell her she's out of order.
The revealing outfits, the cherries, the innuendos with the darker
the berry, the sweeter, the juice, and all of that,
there's no place for it in your classroom. And if
she doesn't, if she doesn't stop, you're going to have
to ask her to leave. Simple as that. And that's
what I think.

Speaker 2 (55:23):
You should do. All right, Steve, Well, y'all pray for
me here I'll go. No you up. Thirty two year
old man started the job teaching adults that's getting the
ged I love it, but I've got a problem. I
got this aggressive female student in her early sixties, and

(55:48):
at the end of one of the classes, she came
to me, ask you, what Jimmy go to? You know,
you know, because you got a nice body, you blush.
You ain't know what to say. She winked at you
in there. You left. Then she saw it one day
with a revealing outfit. On said she was gonna go
out afterwards with her girls and invited me to join

(56:11):
them because she's looking for a young guy who can
keep up with her on the dance floor. Let's stop.
Let's break this down for a minute. She and her sixties.
How hard is it gonna be to keep up with
her this damn dance? How hard is her ass dancing?
I'm sixty and I can tell you right now, I'm
sixty two. I just like that little back and forward

(56:32):
movie side to the side. That's all I got for you.

Speaker 5 (56:36):
Ain't on.

Speaker 2 (56:37):
She ain't out there breakdancing for spinning on her head
running man? All that cost? Hey mad No, she just
standing there with her old ass going from side to side.
So you should have went now then she I told her,
you don't have a lot of time for that. But

(57:00):
the truth is she scared the hell out you. Now
here she make a move. Now she comes to class.
Got this bag of cherries, she said, they from a
tree in her backyard. Now, let me tell you something
about old people. Old people like picking stuff and giving
it away. I'm surprised she didn't can nothing for So

(57:25):
it starts with just picking something. Then she gonna can
something for you. Then she gonna go down the basement
and come out with she gonna have some preserves for you.
Then she gonna fry you some skillet coin and bring
it to work. That's how it start. Old people always
want to give you something to eat. All right. Now,

(57:50):
she got this bag of cherries, and she said, for fun,
she liked to tie the cherry stems in knots with
her tongue, and asked me if you wanted to watch her.
She's too old for this. You know, you watch a
girl when she twenty thirty times a steal with her tongue.
It's exciting. When you're sixty something, you could tie steal

(58:12):
with your tongue. People be going, what is your old
last doing? You need to get that steal out your
mouth full, You mess around, choke yourself. When I come back,
I'm gonna give you the rest of it because I
know what's wrong, and I'm gonna tell you how to
handle this.

Speaker 10 (58:31):
All right, Steve, We'll have part two of your response
coming up at twenty three after the hour.

Speaker 13 (58:36):
Subject of today's Strawberry letter.

Speaker 10 (58:38):
I'm stressed out in the classroom right after this. You're
listening Steve Hardy Morning Show. All right, Steve, come on,
let's recap today's Strawberry letter.

Speaker 2 (58:47):
Subject.

Speaker 4 (58:48):
I'm stressed out in my classroom.

Speaker 2 (58:50):
Thirty two year old dude teaching adults how to get
their ged is uncomfortable because this sixty year old woman
is hitting on him. You know. She won't to get
at him and invited her to dance. He said he
didn't want to go. She need a young man to
keep up with her. She and her sixties that you
could have went. They sixty year old people can't dance

(59:10):
that long. Dog. I can tell you that my damn self.
You know, one or two dances, they go, sit down,
they need She got taken shoes off everything. I told her.
I ain't ever had time for that. And you don't
like her because she's scared you. Then she brought this
bag of cherries and said she picked him from a tree.
I just tried to remind you last time. Old people
like to pick stuff and give it away, flowers, cotton, cherries, apples.

(59:37):
Like I said, I'm surprised she didn't care nothing for
you and offer you some preserves. But if you keep
on though, your ass gonna get a sweater made. You
can believe that because knitting is next. She said it
was a gift for me for being she asked. First
of all, she tied these steals with her tongue too,

(59:57):
And then she asked you if you wanted to watch
her do But that's not exciting watching a sixty year
old woman tie stem with her tongue, because you know
she keep pushing her tongue up against the roof of
her mom trying to tie that stem. Push them damn
deniers out, and it's gonna throw the whole thing off.
She said, it was a gift for me for being
such a good teacher. Well, you don't have your ged yet, lady,

(01:00:23):
so I don't know how good a damn teacher he is.
And then he turned. Then she told you to pick
the darkest cherish because we had the sweetest juice, and
she winked and left again. Now I'm an Asian guy
and she's a dark brown woman. Okay, so let me
hip you to some culture. When she told you to
pick the darkest cherish because they had the sweetest juice,

(01:00:44):
that comes from the saying the black of the berry,
the sweet of the juice. She being a very chocolate
brown woman. It's a suggestion that she's juicy. That's all
that means. So now, because you're an Asian guy, she's
a dark brown woman. You don't want her to think
it's a race thing when you firmly reject her and
tell her that she's being inappropriate. Now, let me tell

(01:01:07):
you what might happen to you here when you reject her.

Speaker 9 (01:01:10):
She old.

Speaker 2 (01:01:12):
And she's sixty two. You might get your ass slapped.
You just might. I ain't promising it, but you might.
She sound a little tough now. She out picking cherry,
climbing trees and stuff in the backyard. You know if
she go dance and she might be in some kind
of shape. But you gonna reject her. And because of what, Well,

(01:01:42):
let's talk about this first. Let me get how can
I stop her from acting out in making these comments.
You can't risk any rumors or impropriety at work, not
in these days and times. You can't can't stop her
from acting out and making these comments about upsetting her
without upsetting her. I'm very stress south knowing she's coming
to class. You should see her, Please help me. Well,

(01:02:06):
we can't see her, but you gotta start saying something slick.
You're gonna have to hurt her feelings though, because she's
sixty and she really aggressive, and I don't know how
I could suggest to you without being offensive.

Speaker 3 (01:02:24):
So don't.

Speaker 4 (01:02:27):
So don't go down that road.

Speaker 2 (01:02:28):
Okay. Well, okay, Shirley, Well I'm not gonna go down
that road. But supposed, though, I'm just hypothetical. Okay, suppose
he just would say to her, he don't he don't
like uneducated with me. You not just say that. I'm
just saying, I ad suppose that. Suppose Okay, let me

(01:02:53):
see how I could dress this up for you. Maybe
if he said I like to be with someone that
I'm equally yoke with.

Speaker 4 (01:03:01):
Okay, that's better.

Speaker 2 (01:03:03):
And then she said, well, what do you mean by that? Well,
your ass is old as you don't have a high
school diploma.

Speaker 4 (01:03:09):
No, he cannot say that, and.

Speaker 2 (01:03:11):
I have a college education. No. I mean, I'm just
trying to say how he can say that they're not
equally yoked. I'm just trying what he could do. You
need to take all these tight air clothes off and
learn these damn multiple. You need to take all these
tight air clothes off and sit out over here and

(01:03:32):
learn these damn timetables over here. That's why you ain't
got no diploma. Now tying these chair stems.

Speaker 4 (01:03:41):
With your damn tongue.

Speaker 2 (01:03:44):
You should have been paying attention to school, you sitting
up in the math class tying stems with your tongue.
Now you're too old for this. And since your fast
ass down somewhere and your stomach is too big for.

Speaker 20 (01:03:59):
That tight ass dress, you don't know that you're gonna
have to say.

That's not even less Today we'll have more of the
Steve Harvey Morning Show right after this.

Speaker 4 (01:07:47):
You're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 10 (01:07:52):
All right, So, Steve, I saw this video on social
media media recently of a man who was honest about
why he ditched women without any explanation, any closure. I
know you say men don't do closure, but he said
that the woman he ghosted was either too much for
him at the time and that meant to him that

(01:08:14):
he didn't measure up to her. So he was trying
to explain and put a button on why you know
he did what he did in the past or was
he looking for the past of the path of least
resistance here?

Speaker 5 (01:08:27):
No.

Speaker 2 (01:08:27):
I think women have to understand something. You know, like
I've always told them. I've said, you know, a lot
of times when a man break up with you, a
woman immediately goes to or what's wrong with me? That's
not always the case. As a matter of fact, the
majority of cases has not anything to do with you.
It's something wrong with the man. It's just this brother
online admitted that it was him that he couldn't measure up,

(01:08:50):
that he wasn't ready, that he wasn't the man for
the job, and that oftentimes is the case. And the
reason men don't give you closure is because most men
are not going to admit that ain't no. Don't no
man want to come to you and go, you know, look,
I just ain't man enough. You too much. Some men
will do it, but a lot of men have broken

(01:09:12):
up with women and just went, hey, look it ain't you,
it's me, and then that's it.

Speaker 4 (01:09:18):
Yeah, And what does that mean?

Speaker 2 (01:09:20):
Yeah, but it means what this brother was saying, You
were too much for me. You had some requirements I
couldn't live up to. Your standards were too high. I'm
not enough man for the woman you are. I can't
feel the job application requirements out. I'm not ready for that.

(01:09:40):
I want a woman who's less than you. I need
somebody who's just less because you just too much now.
And then they go on and they find women who
are less and try to have relationship with them, and
women get mad because how can he just move on
and start in a relationship. Maybe he found less? Yeah,

(01:10:01):
maybe he did.

Speaker 4 (01:10:02):
I do you know.

Speaker 2 (01:10:03):
What's to stop blaming yourself? What's wrong with stop blaming yourself?

Speaker 4 (01:10:08):
It's your life because a lot of women do that.

Speaker 9 (01:10:13):
Some men don't care about closure, you know, just they
just move on and let you figure it out on
your own.

Speaker 2 (01:10:18):
And that's usually the case, because I wrote a chapter
men don't do closure because normally we don't and Tommy
is exactly right. The majority of the time we just walk, well,
know you nothing, you work through it out, and most
a lot of men ain't gonna admit to their shortcomings.
And then me and we don't feel like it's our obligation,
I mean, and in truth, what happened to us was

(01:10:41):
we didn't work. Now we ain't got to get seat
now standing here and calling you back to explain why
you know what that's gonna lead into.

Speaker 10 (01:10:53):
At that moment when you decide not to do closure
and move on?

Speaker 4 (01:10:56):
What is going through your mind? What's going through the
mind of a man?

Speaker 2 (01:11:01):
Wasn't over? Well?

Speaker 4 (01:11:02):
Who was?

Speaker 2 (01:11:04):
Yeah? Who behind you I'm looking for? Yeah, it's over.

Speaker 13 (01:11:07):
So there's no guilt, there's no remorse.

Speaker 2 (01:11:10):
No what I got? Well, I got to be killed.
Are we getting out of something that ain't working for me?

Speaker 8 (01:11:14):
And you?

Speaker 2 (01:11:14):
Yeah, I'm doing you a fake. I'm getting out of
here now because this ain't working. You may think it's working,
but all this arguing and all this what I ain't
what you don't do? And where was you? And all
this here? No no, no, no no, So you ain't
got to question me no more, and I ain't got
to answer the question.

Speaker 1 (01:11:29):
I'm out.

Speaker 2 (01:11:31):
That free yourself from having to wonder where I'm at anymore.
And that's really how man looks at it. And that's
a clean way to get out, because if it's over,
it's over the whole the how come? What happened? Why not?
We ain't got We don't really look it's over. No

(01:11:52):
matter what I say, you're not gonna like to answer.
So how about just no answer? And that's usually how
men look at that too. Don't we already know while
we leave it. Yeah, of course we know.

Speaker 10 (01:12:03):
Okay, let me ask you this. Did you know when
you met the woman? Did you know already know that

you're listening Harvey Morning Show. All right, So, Steve, before
we left, we were talking about men and they don't
do closure.

Speaker 4 (01:12:44):
They just move on.

Speaker 10 (01:12:45):
And a lot of times it is them, or most
times them and not the woman. Did you want to
add anything to that? You were saying you already knew
when you met the woman. Perhaps, well it was too
much for you.

Speaker 2 (01:12:57):
When we meet a woman. I don't want to say game,
because every man that meets you not playing a game.
But game on. We now have to see what it's
gonna take to win you over. Now, if it's a lot,
we'll pretend to have a lot, but we can't sustain
the pretense, the pretension, we just can't sustain it. And

(01:13:19):
you know like oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I got myself together,
I'm holding I'm strong, I'm dedicated, I'm working. And then
when she keeps that pressure up, this is what I'm
looking for. This is what when did you or are
you still looking for a job? Did you still how's
the job hunt going? How's the business going? And they
gonna be cause they're gonna cause women gonna ask you
because women want to feel safe, and that's an important

(01:13:40):
thing for a woman. She wants to feel safe and
so in you coming alonger in her life, whereas the
security in this relationship. So it's not that she's a
gold digger or nothing like that, she just wants to
feel safe. Now, we've created the term gold digger to
keep you out of our pockets and keep you from
talking about our money. And women are stupid for falling
into that trip, let me tell you, because you want

(01:14:03):
to feel safe. And so now once we find out

get nervous and we back out.

Speaker 4 (01:17:38):
You're listening morning show.

Speaker 10 (01:17:41):
All right, guys, here we are last break of the
day on this Monday, and Steve, you have some closing
remarks for us.

Speaker 2 (01:17:49):
I know, all right, listen uh Today this morning, before
we got on the air, I was sitting I was
talking to j Anthony and Junior when you're having a conversation,
and they said, man, you should do that for your
clothes and remarks today. So this is based on a
conversation we have. We were talking about advancing in life.

(01:18:15):
We were having a conversation about what you are willing
to do to advance in life? Are you are you
willing to drop everything are you willing to make sacrifices?

Speaker 17 (01:18:33):
What are you.

Speaker 2 (01:18:34):
Willing to do to get to where you really want
to be? So, what we were talking, I was talking
about a person that I know that had a decision
to make. He has a nice home, he has a
good job, and he lives in a certain city. Right now,

(01:18:58):
He's got a nice home, a good job, and he
lives in a certain city. An opportunity was presented to him,
but the opportunity was in another city. But if he
took this opportunity, he would have a better job and
which would enable him to buy and even nicer home.

(01:19:21):
He didn't do it. As I was talking to my
friend about Man, why didn't you do it? He said, Hey, Man,
because I'm comfortable here. I'm all right with this, he said, Man,
my job, it's all right, he said. My house is cool. Man,
It's a little small, but it's cool and I like

(01:19:45):
living here.

Speaker 9 (01:19:46):
Man.

Speaker 2 (01:19:46):
I got some friends, I got some family here. This
city right here. I'm gonna just go home, stay here.
End of conversation. Steve, I know what You're gonna try
to talk with me out of it, but end of conversation.
So I stopped talking to him. But when I left him,
I was sad. Man, I was so sad for this guy,

(01:20:07):
and it never ever stopped bothering me. What he said.
He said, I'm okay here, I'm gonna just stay here.
My job is all right. Man. This house it's a
little small, but the city cool. I got some family
and friends is cool. I know you're gonna try to
talk me out of his Steve, but I'm good right here.

(01:20:30):
But that decision he made really bothered me. Because, Man,
I'll tell you why I troubled me so because I said, Wow,
here's a guy that I know whould have looked over
the fence with me. Man, a dude I grew up with. Man.
We used to ride our bikes. We sit on the
steps playing that's my car. When they came back. This
is the same dude. Man. We used to ride our

(01:20:50):
bikes and act like we was riding out the country.
Me and my dude. Man, we always talked about doing
something big, and when the opportunity came, he froze because
he was comfortable. He was comfortable with his all right
job in his house that wasn't really big enough. In
this city of friends and family that he had, he

(01:21:13):
didn't want to go to the new city. He didn't
want the job that paid more. He didn't want the
opportunity to buy a bigger home because it would have
taken him out of his comfort zone. Because he wasn't
comfortable in the new city. He was comfortable in the
current city. And they was already had just worked himself
up to say I'm okay with my house. The way

(01:21:33):
it is. You can be okay with the house you is.
You can be okay with the job. You can be
okay with the car you driving. But if opportunity presents
itself to become great. There are three things I'm about
to give you, and all three things say the exact
same thing. I'm just saying that three different ways in
case you got to hear it the best way you
need to hear it. These are all three the same thing,

(01:21:56):
just which one fits you best. You can't get there
if you all never attempt to go there one more time.
You cannot get there. If you never attempt to go there,
same thing, different way of saying it. You can't go
if you never leave. Then, my father say this to

(01:22:19):
me all time. You can't go, boy, If you never leave,
you know, man, you can't go. If your feet don't move,
you just can't. You can't go if you don't leave
where you're going. If you don't leave, If you don't leave,
you ain't going nowhere. You got to leave something to
get to the next level. The next level requires you
to leave. The next level requires you to go. You

(01:22:44):
can't stay right here and get over there. You cannot. Man.
Here's the third way to look at it. You have
to leave. If you want to grow, you cannot grow
staying there. You cannot expect to grow if you're unwilling

(01:23:07):
to change. If you're unwilling to change, you cannot expect
to grow. You can't, y'all. Let me say I'm to
you again. You can't get there if you never attempt
to go there. Maybe that's the way you like here? Now,
how about this way right here? You can't go if
you never leave. You got to leave somewhere to go somewhere.

(01:23:33):
You can't go. Be great and stay the same and
not be willing to change. I ain't changing. Oh well, brother,
you get what What do you mean? You're not changing?

Speaker 3 (01:23:42):
This is how I am.

Speaker 2 (01:23:44):
No man. Growth requires that you change. Last one. You
have to leave if you want to grow, I had
to leave Cleveland to go become who I am. You
may have to leave your city. You may have to
leave your situation. You may have to leave your town,
your job, you may have to leave a relationship. But

(01:24:06):
you're gonna have to leave something if you want to grow,
you ain't gonna grow and hold on everything you got.
That's not how it works. Those are my closing remarks.
Think about it, make a move, Make a move, y'all.
Have a great day. Talk to God all right, Peace.
