Speaker 1 (00:00):
Today show is pre recorded. Y'all know what time.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Y'all don't know y'all all at all, So.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
Don't given them back.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
A million bus busy listening to me to each other.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
I don't joy, yeah, joy.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
You know you.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
Love you. Turn. You gotta turn.
Speaker 5 (01:31):
I can't.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
To turn the mouth turn you probably got to turn
mouth out the water the mony up.
Speaker 4 (01:49):
Look, come.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Come on, you'll think that all hush, I sure will.
Speaker 5 (02:03):
Good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice. Come on,
dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey got a
radio show. I have something, and it so describes how
I was living. It so captures the feelings that I
had about beginning on the pathway of my dreams. It
(02:26):
so describes how I felt when I was about to
attempt something. And I have some striking news for you.
It describes often how I feel still today to a degree.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
So let me tell you what that is. Here's an
analogy that.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
I've heard a couple of different ways, but I've kind of,
you know, fixed it around to where I can drink
it better, and I think it fits my personality to
describe it to people best this way. I've talked often
about the urgency of doing something with your life, of
getting started today, of stopping the procrastination and putting it off,
(03:09):
and waiting on all your ducks to line up in
a row, and waiting until the stars align themselves. If
you're waiting on such a thing, you're never gonna get started.
I don't know too many people who can say that
all the ducks just lined up in the row.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
Things happen. Even when you get them lined up.
Speaker 5 (03:27):
One of the ducks get out of line, or somebody
knock over the domino. Something happens. But here's the point
I'm getting at. God has so many blessings available to you.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
You who's listening.
Speaker 5 (03:45):
God has so many blessings available to you from where.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
You are right now.
Speaker 5 (03:52):
I don't care what you've gotten yourself into or what
you've done. God has so many blessings that he can
send your way.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
But you have to do something.
Speaker 5 (04:06):
See a lot of people just sit around and go man,
I don't and something always happening to you. You're always
getting a break, You're always doing this. You always doing man,
No nothing come my way. Listen to me. If nothing
ever comes your way. You know why that is. It's
because you're not doing anything. I promise you you're not.
Here's a deal. God has all these blessings he wants
(04:28):
to send you, but you got to give him something
to work with. Now, come on, God will bless you.
God can touch people's hearts on your behalf. He can
move situations around for you. He can align the stars.
He can set the ducks up in the row. But
align the stars and move people around, and touch people's
hearts and set the ducks up in the row. For
(04:50):
what have you put forth any effort? Have you made
a single step in any direction to do the right
thing or go the right way? That he gives him.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Something to put his finger on.
Speaker 5 (05:03):
Come on, man, God can only bless you according to
your faith.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
If you have a little bit of faith, give him that.
Let him work with that. You know, man, I didn't
always start with these speeches you hear in the morning.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Now.
Speaker 5 (05:16):
I ain't always have these. I grew to these. I
stumbled my way to these. I messed up my way
to these. Here, I got it wrong so many times
to be able to sound like I got some sense,
I said it often.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Failure is a wonderful teacher.
Speaker 5 (05:33):
Do you know how many times I have had to
have failed to have what I have in my head today.
I'm telling you, man, it's a process. People get mad
at the process. You got to do something to give
God something to work with. He'll bless you. But what
you want me to bless If you ain't putting forth
any effort, you can get blessed from wherever you are
(05:54):
in your life, wherever your starting point is, wherever you
find yourself wound up, you can get it back from there.
I've done it, man, by the grace of God, I've
done it. I got over. Man. I learned some things
along the way. Because here's the deal. As long as
God keeps waking you up in the morning, he ain't
through with you yet.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
When he's done, you're done. But if God still has a.
Speaker 5 (06:16):
Plan for you you wake up in the morning, he
still got some more work for you to do. You
wake up in the morning. So if you keep waking up, man,
it's something that God wants from you, would love to
have from you, and he can work with you, man,
if you just walk towards him a little bit.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Here's the deal.
Speaker 5 (06:34):
I know it's hard for the average person to start
because the fear of the unknown is incredible. What if
I fail, what if I don't get picked? You know,
one of the hardest things I ever did was walking
in to quit my job. Oh man, let me tell
you about that day when I decided that I was
gonna be a full time comedian after winning an amateur
(06:55):
night one time. Quitting your job, following your dream, going
for it despite all the nay says, it's like stepping
off a cliff. It's like actually just walking off the
edge of a cliff, hoping, hoping. Now not really knowing,
(07:15):
but hoping. Hoping is the bad basis of faith. I
stepped off that cliff hoping that my parachute would open
and allow me to drift down.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
See.
Speaker 5 (07:32):
I've never scott dived before, but I would imagine part
of the thrill. And I don't know this because I'm
not going to sCOD dive to find out. I think
part of the thrill for people is the danger part
of throwing yourself out a plane and how it feels
to be free falling, but the whole time they're free falling,
having this exhilarating over the top moment. You have got
(07:57):
to believe in your heart of hearts, you have got
the hope with everything in you that when you pull
this cord the shoot opens or else. This ain't a
good move at all. But you've packed your shoot yourself.
You've taken the lessons, so you go ahead and you
make the leap. Now, the only thing about quitting your
job and following your dream is you ain't really been
(08:18):
trained all that good for this. You done packed your shoote,
but you ain't never opened it before. So I walked
off this cliff, That's what it was like. And you
following your dreamers like you walking off a cliff. Here's
the part where people don't never make the jump. They
see somebody like myself who jumped off the cliff and
the paschute don't open right away, and I hit a
(08:40):
couple of rocks on the way down.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
I got my back cut up pretty bad.
Speaker 5 (08:44):
They see that three years living in a car, man
he got it life toe down jumping off that cliff.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
I ain't jumping off that cliff. But see, what you.
Speaker 5 (08:53):
Don't understand is you don't know it, but eventually the
shoote will open. I'm at the parachute opening part of
my life. Man were to shoot then open, and I'm
drifting and I'm able to guide my chute over.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
To Paris and glide.
Speaker 5 (09:09):
I've glided over the Africa and seen what it looked like.
It's a slow ride down when the pass chute finally
opened or and my back din't heel too and the
cuts that I had on me, I remember now I
know how to stay away from the edge. But the
Paris chute then opened, and I'm enjoying my life for
the first time. I'm gliding, but I got hit up
(09:30):
against the rock. I can see more. I get a
chance to see more things. I get to glide and
see more parts of the world. I'm living my dream.
Your parachute is going to open, but I'll tell you
one thing for show. It'll never open if you don't
step off that cliff. You got to step off that cliff.
God get the passchute open for you. But you got
to jump, baby. That's the hard part, ain't it now?
(09:53):
