Come on dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey

Speaker 4 (02:11):
Man o man o man grateful for it comes with
a huge amount of responsibility.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
I didn't really know I was gonna have to be
this responsible. You know? Can I share something with y'all?
I started out to.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Finally I had gotten on track and was able to
see a way to even pursue my dream. It has
been a long, a long trip that I've been on,
and I've gone through so many phases of it. It
is rewarding along the way to accomplish your dreams. What
I'm saying is this, let me, let me put it together,
(02:48):
because I got so much running through my head right now.
You know, It's one thing to accomplish your dreams, but
there's joy in the process of achieving it. See, some
people are so caught up in the goal, the final goal,
that they find no joy, no enjoyment in the process.
(03:13):
If you have found what it is you want to
do and you strike out on that journey, please understand
you are far more blessed than the average person.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
To know what it is you really want to do.
To find your work in life, your purpose, to find
out what direction you want to go in is such
a blessing.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
The average person, if you sit down and talk to them,
oftentimes don't have their life on track. And it'd be
some people that you looking at you think got it
going on because of their appearance, their swagger. Oh they
walk like it, they talk like it, they look like it.
But if you sit down and talk to the average person,
the average per hearson man does not know what their
(04:03):
purpose is, has not discovered what they want to do,
and have no idea how to get there. If you
are on the other side of that, if you understand
your purpose, if you have an idea of what you
want to be and you are on your way there,
you are truly blessed, and in that blessing, you must
(04:25):
recognize it as a blessing.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
You must recognize the.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
Fact that you are on the right side, and that
there should be a sense of accomplishment and a feeling
of pride in you that you are on track to
accomplish your goal. See what used to happen was sometimes
I used to keep my nose so on the grindstone
that I wouldn't even look up and realize, Man, hey, man,
(04:52):
I know you're trying to get here, but Steve, hold on, man,
can't you see what you've.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
Done so far? Can't you find just some enjoy in
the process.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
See, a lot of us lose the joy of a
blessings God has given us because we looking at the
end talking about I ain't there yet?
Speaker 2 (05:09):
You on your way.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
I'm gonna give you an example. I had a friend
who told me that they wanted to be a millionaire.
And they asked me some questions and I told them,
so they started the process, and I am telling you,
this dude works extremely hard. So about a year later
(05:32):
we were talking. He had found this business, he had
set his goal, and he was working towards it. Then
about two years later, I ran up into him again.
We were talking about it and everything. He said, Man,
I really really appreciate the advice. He said, Man, but
this is all jacked up, man, because I still ain't
(05:54):
made that million I was talking about. I said, well, hey, man,
just keep at its coming. He said, man, keep at it.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Man.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
You know how long I've been doing this? Been two
years now. And I didn't say that to him, but
I said to myself, yeah, two years. He said, Man,
I've been grinding so long. Man, it's just it ain't
happening for me. I said, wait a minute, man, holld on,
hold on. I said, about how much you making right
now a year? Man?
Speaker 1 (06:20):
About two hundred and fifty thousand. I quit breathing. I said, whoa,
my man. Two years ago you didn't have a clue.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
Two years later, you making a quarter of a million dollars.
I said, man, do you understand how blessed you are?
I said, ma'am, your family was about to get put out.
Two years ago. You done bought a house. Yeah, man,
but this ain't the house.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
I really won't.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
Oh, oh Pardner, whoa, I got that. I got that
the house you really won't make Mike call fied eight million.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
But man, y'all got house, you making a payment, you
drive it. You ain't out no more. I said, old man,
you got to stop. I said, you got to stop.
I said, man, because right now, man, you you coming across.
That's real ungrateful to me. And so he said, man,
why are you tripping like that?
Speaker 2 (07:13):
Man?
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Man, you act like don't nobody want to have nothing
but you?
Speaker 4 (07:16):
I said, whoa man? Where are you going with this conversation?
I said, Oh, I didn't come to you. I just
came to you and asked you how you doing. And
I'm trying to point out to you that the journey
that you started on, that you are on your way,
and you are in the process of accomplishing your goals.
And can you not feel some joy and some pleasure
in your accomplishment. Quit tripping on the fact that you
(07:37):
ain't made a million yet, you on your way? You
done went from he dog, This dude was making fifteen
thousand dollars a year. You making quarter of a million
dollars in two years. Man, come on, man, can't you
see can't you see? So he said, eventually, ah, man,
I kind of see what you saying. But that ain't
about nothing to me because I ran up into him
a year and a half later. How you doing, man, man,
(08:02):
I shore wish i'd appreciate it my life when I
had it like that? I said, what you mean, had
it like that?
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Man?
Speaker 4 (08:09):
Just fell on some hard times? Man, right back where
I was. And then we talked. I said, hey, man,
don't worry about it. I said, Once you know how
to accomplish something, I said, you just reapply the same
principles and start on over again. Man, you know how
hard it is to be to start over? Okay, my man?
Hold up, Pardner, you've been do yourself like this again.
First you wasn't grateful for what you had. Now you're
(08:31):
looking at the fact that you might have to start over,
and you know how hard it is to start over.
Maybe God said, okay, you ain't happy with this. Okay,
didn't handle it your way? You obviously ain't happy with
the way I'm bringing it into your life. You want
to handle it your way, Go ahead and handle it
because he will let you have it your way. Can
I tell you that he will let you do it
(08:52):
exactly the way you want to it because he gives
us all the power choice so then maybe he said, Okay,
you don't appreciate the way I'm doing it, like the
favor I'm showing you. You think it's taken too long.
I'm gonna let you do it your way. I'm not
gonna turn my back on you. I'm just gonna let
you do it your way.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Just just say.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
Maybe he said that, and now he right back where
he was. So what I tried to get the young
cat to understand was, man, appreciate your life for what
it is. Because like life, Jenny's got that song that
he got out off this album. Still I still believe
it could have been worse. And now that it is worse,
what's on your mind now, Folks, If you are on
(09:32):
that side of life where you have figured out what
you want to do, you know how you're gonna get that,
and you know your purpose. You're accomplishing what the majority
of people never ever do. So be grateful for your process.
Don't tumble yourself, don't throw yourself off the cliff. It's
gonna be all right. Success takes a measure of time.
It is not easy.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
If success were easy, everybody would be successful.
