turn out the word of the money.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
Come come on, you'll think, huh, I sure will. Good
morning everybody you are listening to the voice, Come on,
dig me down one and only. Steve Harvey got a
radio show. Man o, man o, man, I just I

(02:17):
have to tell you this. How good is the God
I serve? How amazing is he? That's that's all I
you know. And you know what, really, man, when I
try to explain how I feel about what he does
for me, really, the words that I come up with

(02:38):
that they just they they inadequate. Man, They don't they
don't cut it. They really don't. You know. I can
say amazing. At one time, I even just got I
tried something real ignorant. One time, I just said, you know,
God is just super captual, fragilistic as be all adocious.
I just tried that see how that felt. That's that's
all to change is with me. I just try to
because see how that felt. But then I I ain't

(03:00):
feel right saying that's the fact that he's amazing and
awesome and he's an awesome God. You hear people say
that is it's bigger than that too, man. So you know,
as hard as I try, no matter what I do
every day, I'm gonna come up short with trying to
explain to you exactly how he works and how he
is for me. So I just thank him that every

(03:21):
day every chance I get.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
Here.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
It is it is your determination and your effort. Listen
to me carefully, It is your determination and your effort.
I think that the average person, and I'm not knocking you,
I just want you to hear me out. I think

(03:45):
what stops the average person from becoming successful is that
we don't realize the effort that it takes. And that's
just truth. I found that to be so true in
my life and my talking to meeting people and people
are asking me questions about it and me trying to
figure out the way myself. I don't think that you

(04:09):
really can comprehend the effort that it takes to become successful.
This is the thing that you have to wrap your
mind around very quickly if you want to be successful
on any level in any area. The dream is the beginning.
Good Lord, let me tell you something. The determination and

(04:29):
effort is massive. You cannot be overly concerned with sleep.
If you are a person who is always concerned about sleep,
gets success out your mind. Ain't fin to have a partner,
is not finn happen. You cannot be that concerned about sleep.

(04:51):
Now listen to me. You have to get your rest.
But this was my philosophy. I'm just sharing you with
what how I did it. My philosophy was I stopped
being concerned about sleep. I got my rest, but I
got just enough to get back to it, and I

(05:13):
got back on the grind to hop in the hustle.
I got just enough rest so I could go and
put forth some more effort. But listen to me. You
cannot sleep a third of your life away and expect
to become successful. If you're not already successful. If you
are asleep for eight hours, that is a third of

(05:34):
your day. You cannot be asleep a third of your
life and expect to get successful. Now, after you get successful,
you know, you learn as you go to work smarter,
not harder, so as you get successful, you may have
eight hours available to you. But on the way up there,

(05:54):
I don't see how you can do it. I promise you.
I don't. Now, maybe somebody can come for it. I
did it. Hey, yeah, probably lying. But okay, tell your story.
Because everybody I know that's successful that I've sat down
and had real talks with they wasn't concerned with sleeping.
You cannot be concerned with sleeping if you want to

(06:16):
be successful. How can this happen for you? Listen to me.
The effort that it requires is massive. It's an all
out of salt on your dream. Now you got to
making assault. It requires an all out of salt on it.
And you can't be sleeping. Fight at the same time.
You can't fight when you sleep.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
Man.

Speaker 2 (06:37):
I wish I could get y'all understand this right here.
Understand that the effort that is required to be successful
will take everything you have, and when you think you've
given your all, it's gonna require some more. The quality
of your chield is amazing. See okay, listen, what is

(06:58):
sitting around having a bill every day? Fault? What what
what's sitting around smoking weed for every day? Pa? Come on, man,
for real, But if you took that beer, drinking weeds
smoking chill time and applied it to progressing yourself towards
your dream. When you do carve out of vacation, guess

(07:20):
where you be able to go. Guess what part of
the world you can go see. Guess how you can
cheer up now instead of you just driving Every year
your family to the family union, sit at the same
picnic table. Everybody pull they money in two and ten
families don't never pool they money in. They down there
eating like y'all eating. You got attitude cause cause the

(07:40):
day or day side don't have a chip in or not.
They down there eating the extra potatoes at and making place.
You're not huguing about this every year for real, man,
they ain't got the T shirt money. You know, they
got to say a T shirt on. They ain't put
in that, really, man, so so so so so you
want that to be it every year? Or do you
want this year? I'm taking my family to New Orleans,

(08:04):
h I'm taking my family see the Grand Canyon. I'm
taking my family down to the beach this year. Me
and me and my family gonna go sight see. We're
gonna go ride a couple of river on Chicago. Me
and my family gonna go skiing this year. Me and
me and my family going out to La Man. We go.
We're gonna go out there for the weekend. You know,
you know it can happen like that. But if you
ain't working, listen to me. Average effort gets average results.

(08:34):
That's that's all it is to it. See, ordinary effort
gets ordinary results. But if you put forth an extra effort. See,
the only difference between extraordinary and ordinary is one word,
that's extra. If you do extra, you can take ordinary

(08:56):
right on over to extraordinary. Do you understand you have
to have a massive assault on your dreams? Quit sitting
up in here, man, trying to chill all the time.
I'm sorry, man, I wish I could tell you another way,
but it ain't one. Here's what I did. I wasn't
concerned about how much sleep I got. I just had
to get my rest. And once I got enough rest

(09:19):
to get up and get the task done, I got up.
Somebody sent me a tweet the other day, a partner
of mine. He said, one to see if I can
pull it up while I'm talking to you. But you
just sent me a little sign just what, nothing, just
a little something to say, Hey man, I ran across this,
I thought about you, and I sent it to you.

(09:40):
It said no alarm clock needed, My passion wakes me.
It's in block print. He said, no alarm clock needed,
My passion wakes me. That's what you got to be about.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
Listening hard morning show. Mm hmm
