  Speaker 1: Come on dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: I got a radio show. Sometimes you wake up and
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: you're not feeling your best. The reason I'm talking about
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: this today is because today it is one of those
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: days for me. You know, you can stay positive, and
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: I'm a very very positive person. Now I'm turning it
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: around as I speak to you because I've learned a
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: trick in my life. I've learned a self motivating tool
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: that I use and I'm gonna share it with you today.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: So if you wake up and you're not quite feeling
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: yourself that day, as is the case with me today,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: if you wake up and you just you know, you
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: know what the old saying, you just woke up on
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: the wrong side of the bed, that type of thing.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: You haven't one of those days. Here's what I do,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Here's what I've already began to do to turn the
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: ship around for me. Whenever I'm having one of those
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: moments where I'm not on point, don't feel all, something
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: seems a little I'll center I immediately immediately, and and
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: and and I ain't I'm I'm not kidding you. I'm
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: I'm in the process of doing it right now. I
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: immediately start thinking of all the little things, all the
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: little things that I have that I can be grateful for.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: And I start with the fact that the reason I
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: had to get up this morning. See, the reason I
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: had to get up this morning was because of you know,
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: the work I do, the job I have. Now, you
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: may not have a job that you're in love with
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: like I'm in love with mine. But let me ask
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: you this right here, suppose you didn't have that job.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Oh man, how would today be? But you could sleep
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: in a little bit longer, But when you woke up, man,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: you'd have to be faced with cold realization that hey, man,
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: I ain't working. Man, I ain't. I ain't making it
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: happen for me and mine. I'm not getting it done.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: And so with that in mind, I immediately I started
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: showing some gratitude for waking up and man, just having
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: having having worked to go do. And then I started
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: telling myself that, man, he didn't have to do it,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: but he did. He woke me up this morning, that
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: I'm up, I'm actually able, that I'm here again, that
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: that he ain't through with me yet, that there's really
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: still things for me to do. Man, Okay, cool, I'm
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: on point with that. I'm on point with that. And
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: then I just started going over the little things. Man.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: You know, my coffee machine wasn't working this morning. I said, Man,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: I've been down. I've been fittling with that coffee machine,
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: trying to get it to work. You know, I couldn't
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: get it to work. I called somebody, you know, I
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: get some coffee. It's okay. The ain't the end of
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: the world, you know, And I was I started thinking about, man,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: that I have a place that I can go to
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: once a year. That's beautiful. And I started thinking about,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: you know, man, look I got a place that I
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: laid my head, that's mine. I mean, you know, as
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: my father in law once told me, when somebody came
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: to see about him and his house was inside his
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: house talking to him crazy the police, he said, listen
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: to me, he said, this is my house. He says,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: as mega as it may be, this is my house,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: and I'm the king of this castle right here. However, meaga,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: it may be, this is mine. And you know, when
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: you start looking at stuff in terms like that, man,
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: I mean, for me, it's just a trick. I use.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: I started feeling better. I started looking around, man, I
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: started thinking about man, I had I got something to
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: wear today. You know. I started looking at little stuff. Man,
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna have some eggs later on today. I started
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: looking at other stuff. Somebody is hungry today. See somebody,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: somebody don't don't really have an option of knowing what
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: they're going to have today. I actually have a refrigerator
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: with an option in it. You know. I started looking
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: at the little things man, that God has done for me,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: the little things is in my life. And I started
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: picking myself up. Man. I started feeling a whole lot
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: better about myself. And see, the more I started telling
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: it to you right now, the better I'm starting to feel,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: because man, is you can you know? I mean, look,
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: I mean listen to my voice. My my energy is
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: picking up, my pace is picking up, because now I
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: didn't hear out of out of hit my rhythm. I'm up.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: I'm glad, I'm up. I'm grateful to be here. I'm glad.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: I got a family. I'm glad. God didn't kept my kids.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: Glad God kept my wife. You know, I'm glad. You know,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: whoever you are, whatever your situation is, God didn't kept
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: somebody for you on your behalf. That's a benefit to
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: you or somebody you're trying to teach something they may
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: finally get it today, or something you've been trying to know,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: you may finally know it today. But you got to
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: accept the blessing of what it is that you know now, Okay.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: You know, see, if you've been looking for an answer,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: a solution to a problem, and then the solution come,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: you know you got to be grateful for it. You know,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Lord helped me with this relationship. Maybe today is to
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: day you find out that that's been the toxin and
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: the poison in your life, that that relationship is what's wrong. See,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: but because we want to hang on to it, oh,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: we try to make it go against everything that was
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: in us. Now we got this toxic poison in our life.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: You know, you may find out today that that's it
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: that you need to move on. Well, you know, something
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: that ain't the most devastating thing you could find out.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: There's a blessing and a lot of things that that
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: that looks painful at times. You know, I said that
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: at best one time, I said, you know, sometimes the
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: breakup is the blessing for a lot of people, it is, man,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: because you know, look, man, you know, you know, we
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: make choices with who we want to be with, and
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: sometimes you can't pick the wrong person. You know, look,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: and they don't make that person the bass. That person
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: just wasn't good together with you. That's all it is.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: And so when you come to that realization, sometimes you
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: know it is time to move on. You got to
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: be grateful for all of the little things, man, the
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: fact that you have a way to get around, the
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: way that you have the read, that you have some
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: money to go get on, something to go get around,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: that you're in school. It might not be going just
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: perfect for you. Right now. But guess what you're in school, man,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: you got a shot. You're making it happen, you know
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying, a lot of people don't have that. Man,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: A lot of people don't know what the next move is.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: At least you're in the process of doing something about it.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: And you may not know how to see your way
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: all the way to the end. But just knowing what
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: to do what the next step could be for you,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: that's good enough. You know. You don't have to know
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: all the steps. Just what am I gonna do next?
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: With left? I do this, and I'm gonna take this course,
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: and I complete this semester, I move on to that semester.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: I don't care what it is. Look, man, we just
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: gotta find something to be grateful about today, because in
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: your gratitude, God blesses you with more. Sim of God
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: sees that we're grateful for the things we have, he
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: gives us more things to be grateful for. It's simply
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: the law of attraction. If you're thankful and grateful for
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: the things you have, you will now attract to yourself
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: more things to be grateful for. It's the law of attraction.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: It works in every aspect of your life, not the
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: fact that you don't know the rule. It does not matter.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: So the thing that you want the most of in
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: your life, it's the thing that you're gonna have to
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: give the most. The things that the thing that you
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: hope happens to you the most. It's the thing that
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: you're gonna have to have happened to others the most. Lord,
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: I want you to cover me. You're gonna have to
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: cover some people, but I want you to hear my cry.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: You're gonna have to hear some people's cries. But I
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: want more love in my life. You're gonna have to
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: love more people. I'm talking about real, real love, and
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: I'm not talking about going out fooling around with somebody.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: That's that's ridiculousness. And see here's a well, since I'm
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: talking about love and wrong love and ridiculousness, here's how
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: you know that it ain't from God. I want you
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: to hear me. Then, if God is involved in it,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: there is no sin. If there is sin involved in
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: it is not from God. Just remember that rule. It
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: took me a long time learned that one. You know
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: what the Bible says doing tell us that you would
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: have them do it when they did it to me,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: so they must want it done to them. I'm gonna
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: go down here, I'm gonna do this. If what you're
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: going to do is a sin, you have now twisted
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: a Bible verse to fit your method or what you
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: want to do to No, simply know that if it's
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: God's voice just talking to you, or something that's going on,
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: is in it. Bishop Oldman talked this to me. The
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: God's voice and God's methods always has no sin in it.
• 10:53

• 18:01
  Speaker 1: I can tell you that I'm here for it. Yes,
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: you are for the mess. All right? So now the
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: two eighteen predictions you were going to tell us you're
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: Steve for what? Yes, the guys last bird. Yeahs. My
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: goal is just straightened my company out. I'm going through
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: reorganization period right now. I'm in a hiring phase. Does
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: that mean you're in the firing frame Because in hard
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: of the high I have to expand, expanding, expanding, So
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: I'm looking for top qualified people to feel certain positions
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: I am no longer. I've decided in two thousand eighteen
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: that I am not going to be listening to people
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: who have repeatedly given me false promises and hopes and
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: have fulfilled none of them. I will not be taking
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: those people into two thousand eighteen. You are officially off
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: the wagon. So I will not be taking anyone into
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: two thousand eighteen that did not carry their weight or
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: perform their duties in two thousand seventeen, I am through
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: with to give you a chance business, and then all
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: you do is take advantage of the chance. I'm out
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: of that business. I'm out of that. You got to
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: keep it real and hire a certain person business. I
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: am from now on only hiring top notch qualified people,
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: and I don't care who they are. Business. That's well,
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, you have to do certain things in order
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: to be a successful business person. So all dead weight,
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: because all it all dead weight does, folks, It's just
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: slows you down. It inhibits you from your growth. Now
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: in your efforts to be a decent person, caring and
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: trying to provide opportunities that ain't your job. You provide
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: opportunities to interns. Once you pay a person and you
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: give a person a check, that person owes you something
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: in return for the check. Now, if your check just
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: going out and you're getting nothing in return, you should
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: stop sitting in that check out. You have a carry
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: dead Wait, oh, a dog time? I I mean, I
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: mean like like like my son is six and he
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: falls sleeping my bed and I gotta pick him up
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: and came up there. That's dead weight. Do you're not heavy?
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: That is right to carry dead weight. But see the
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: and you I understand analogy you're making. The cool thing
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: about him your son is you feel an obligation to
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: your son because your son didn't ask to be here,
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: and you his father. So it's six. You don't mind
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: that dead, But you're talking about other people grown it's
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: when you have a fellow grown up who just want
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: to lay limp in your own and you gotta carry
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: them everywhere you go, And and that right there is disturbing.
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: And it's not only if you're paying a person that
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: goes the same way. We're gonna continue to conversation the
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: next break. This goes the same way in two thousand eighteen.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: If you're carrying a friendship, that is only one way.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: When you're doing all the friendly and all they do
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: is sitting on the ship. You're the only friend in
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: the relationship. You should cut those friends out. One sided
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: friendships should end. In two thousand and eighteen. We'll continue
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: this conversation when we come back. Yeah, all right, two
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: eighteen predictions. More coming up. You're listening to Steve alright,
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: coming up of the town of the hour. Miss Anne
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: will be here to update us with today's national news.
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: But right now, as promised, we're back. Steve. You were
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: onto something talking. I have a question for all of you.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna start with you, Carla. Yes, do you have
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: a person in your life, in some form of relationship
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: that's in an associate, a friendship, a business person something.
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: You have a person in your life? And this question
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: is for everybody, but I'm starting with calling you have
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: a person in your life who in that relationship you
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: give more in it than they give continuously, over and
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: over and over, not anymore. Okay, okay, surely do you
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: have a person? Absolutely? I do, absolutely, And I've been
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: you you were really you don't even know it, but
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: you're really speaking to me this morning. I've been just
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: toiling over this and toiling over this, but you gave
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: me my confirmation that I needed today. Junior, do you
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: have something several Tommy? Do you got them and let
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: them go? Yes? And let me tell you something, Shirley.
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: I'm in the same predicament as you because I still
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: have them and because we as decent people feel an
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: obligation like you know, you you you, you know, because
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: everybody looks at us because of our job titles, and
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: people look at you because your job title that you blessed,
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: because you got it, you should somehow give it to them.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: Whether it's your lifestyle, your business connections, your relationship, your money,
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: your time, your advice. Well, that's all well and good,
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: But in return for that, where is your participation in
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: our friendship, in our association, in our relationship? Where is
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: your participation? Because I guarantee you almost all of us
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: have people in our life who we need to shed
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: and in order to get to the next level, you
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: have to share these people. And it isn't it doesn't
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: make you a bad person. Really. You know what Bishop
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: Jake said one time, Sometimes you have to let a
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: person go so you can free them into their own destiny.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: Because sometimes keep holding on to a person you stopping
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: them from doing what they really could do if they
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: weren't just laying in your arms chilling. And I have
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: let some people go that have really went and found
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: their way. But then guess what, out of less somebody,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: out of less, some people go who found out they
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: ain't even have a way, and and and and they're
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: on straight struggle. So that in two thousand and eighteen
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: is a part of the inventory. If you want your
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: two thousand eighteen to be better than your two thousand seventeen,
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: you have to do things differently. Okay, help me out,
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: Help me out. Did in show me the footsteps of
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: those people that do need help that I've I've helped
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: so many times in the past because I'm gonna give
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: him that's just by nation. So how do I how
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: do I get to the point where I have to say, Okay,
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: I can't give you another thousand or another five thousand.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: I can't because you know they keep coming back and
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: I keep having that heart up. All right, I'm gonna hookier. Okay,
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: let me ask you a question. First of all, it's
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: this family, No, sometimes it is it's it's it's because
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: I got more than four or five people that come
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: at me on. You know what I mean. Guess what
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: Shirley got that, Junior got that Carla got that. I
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: have a hunted almost people to come at me. So
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: here is what I've done. Here's what I've done the
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: people that I do love, like for example, you may
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: not have to do this. I'm just telling you what
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: I do. My family. I'm the youngest one of my siblings.
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: My oldest brother gone. My other brother he'd be seventy
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: two this year. My sister eighty two. My other sisters
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: seventy nine. They old man, and they they ain't had
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: the the lifestyle I've had. So I take care of
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: them with with with you know, man, with the check.
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: But it cut out all of that. You know you
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: hun't you ask your brother for some money? I know
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: he got it, cut all that out. Man. You can't
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: help me out, man, I got man, my man, My
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: transmission went out, or the furnace went out, the dog,
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: the garage roof cave did I was here and all listen,
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: what the hell? And like, I ain't got enough going on?
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: So what I did was I just cut out a
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: little supplemental thing, mem and I'll send it to him. No,
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: guess what now, you ain't got time on Steve ain't this,
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: and Steve ain't that? He here go your cut. So
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: that's what I did for them. Now other than that,
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: let's say you've got some people that always use you
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: as a loan officer, but then got trouble paying back
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: the damn loan. Come on here, hit it, hit it.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: See I've been at all these levels. So now hear
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: what you have to do. You have to make a
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: decision that enough is enough and too much stinks. And
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: right now y'all have the stink Paul, because how many
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: times you're gonna come to me? See my number? One
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: question began what I what I had to learn to
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: ask myself was if you did not have my number,
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: what would you do? Yeah, you always say that, you
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: always say that, that's what you call Listen to me, y'all.
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: All these emergencies that these people call y'all wit, if
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: they didn't have your number, what would they do? Well?
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: Guess what get to doing that? First of all, let
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: me explain something to you y'all. At this level right here,
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: you do not need voicemail. No more your voicemail. I
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: don't listen to mine anyway, but I get rid of
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: your voicemail. That's an opportunity for a cry for help.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: Do not need people who can fly on your machine
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: to leave you before you got to hear voice and
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: flash hoping you answer. Please tell me I can't even
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: wait min hold up, be quiet enough, call me. You
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: know you was still doing stand up. This is the
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: set right, I'm telling you, man, get rid of your
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: voicemail because all it is is allows people to leave
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: you a cry for help. I always wondered why you
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: didn't have it. I just thought it was because you're
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: Steve Harvey. All you can do is text me and
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: I can decide what this is you're talking about, like
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: okay for and then you can control it. What about this?
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: I heard what you said about your siblings, and we
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: all have What about those family members? You said you
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: will always help your brothers and sisters, you pay them,
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: But what about those especially folks that are listening to
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: have those family members? They are the ones that come
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: over and over and over again. But see guess what,
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: though you you can't keep coming to the whale once
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: it's dry. See what? Let and let me explain something
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: to y'all. These people will come to you as long
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: as you give it to and when you ain't got
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: it nor more, they go somewhere. So you do not
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: allow a person to dry your water whale up. It's
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: like they're holding your holding your kindness and your your
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: your generosity hostage because they know how you are. They know, Tommy,
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: like you said, you're you know that they know you
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: have it. They know you have it, they know you're
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: a giver. So they play on those sympathies. They play
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: on that emotion that you have because you know, because
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: you they you know, maybe you'll feel guilty because you
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: have more than them. So you know all of them
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: all year long. Man, this nice house. I've never been here. Wow, alright,
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: I feel man. Have a call like that. Man, what
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: you got to a car? We're gonna continue this when
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: we come back. We're doing a new two thousand either
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: midshell remarks. You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: All right, Wow, what a discussion. We're in the middle
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: of two thousand eighteen predictions. It's evolved into something else.
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: What you know, the discussion is good. I think that
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: you know the leg workers carrying it out. You know,
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: I have to be focused to carry it out because
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: they don't come. You know what I mean. They come, Tommy,
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: like I was about to tell you what your problem is.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: They set you up for this. Man, this is the
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: nicest house I have ever seen. Man, How I feel
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: to drive a car like that? Man? Man, So you
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: work with it? Man, you ain't show business? Man and
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: you tell him jokes Man, you're on the radio. Man,
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: you got that game show Man? How they feel? Man?
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: Oh man, Man, we're over here, Man, we're just trying
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: to get back. Yo. Hey man, I got this thing
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: I'm working on, but I needed thousand dollars. Man. Man,
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: if you could just help me out, man, I show
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: we'll appreciate it. All right. Man, I'll help you out
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: because you're a kind person. But listen to me, y'all. People,
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: like Shirley said, people take advantage of your kind. When
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: a person wants something, they'll do the necessary things to
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: get it. If it's compliment, you make you false promises.
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: But the most, the biggest and the most useless emotions.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: Oh Tommy, you're so tall. Let let me get a
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: their compliment, they'll do it's necessary, man for that. But
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: I jumped in it. The most useless emotions. The most
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: useless emotion in the human spirit is guilt. Yes, guilt,
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: it is the most useless emotion. It serves the purpose
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: of no one except the person who applies it right.
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: And people use it to apply it to get something
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: from you, so they make you feel guilty. Guilt is
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: the most useless human emotion. It serves no purpose. Why
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: are you feeling guilty, especially if you ain't done nothing. Now,
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: if you shot somebody and you're sitting over there looking
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: at him in the hospital room and you know you
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: shot it, yeah, you're posted to feel guilty. But if
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: you've done nothing, why would you feel guilt because you blessed?
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: Because God didn't bless you, because you go to work
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: every day and you don't got to supervise the job,
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: or you don't gotta upgrade and you don't got yourself
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: a raise because you didn't worked your tail off and
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: attend has been good. You don't be late. Now you're
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: on your job. You didn't come up now all of
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: a sudden, cause you didn't come up. You got this
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: relative and friend who thinks you owe them something because
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: they know now you got it. Now you're feeling guilty
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: because they ain't got it, because they ass ain't worked,
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: because they ain't putty in what you put in. See,
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: I stopped that a long time ago because I works
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: my tail off. So what you're not gonna do it's
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: come over to me and make me feel funky because
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: I got something you ain't. But when I tell you
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: what you gotta do to get something, man, you gotta
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: get the hustling man. Yeah's people said, when you tell
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: them what they got to do, and the first thing
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: out that, my man, I ain't gonna be doing all that,
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: what then you ain't gonna happen. You can't have all
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: this thing. If you're not gonna do all that, you
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: can't have all that. You can't And that's that's the
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: problem that we all face it. So in two thousand
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: and eighteen, y'all think about it. Cut the dead weight, loose,
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: lose the guilt emotion because it's it only serves the
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: person that's applying it to you. Lose guilt shared the
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: dead weight. Don't be afraid to say no. And remember
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: if they didn't know your number, what would they do? Well,
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: guess what they needs to get to do with it?
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: He thinks that too, though. It's don't be afraid to
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: say no. Yeah, you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show,
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, without further ado. Here he is starting
• 35:12

• 43:57
  Speaker 1: over pledged relationships. Uh huh giving you a call to
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: day man, um you attended, prev, you and m University?
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: Am I correct? Yeah? Am I right? You attended and
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: from my understanding you pledged five Beta signal and fall
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: of ninety one. That's correct, alright, that's the Theta chapter correct? Yes,
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: all right. Here's where we're having some problems here going
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: through the records, actually looking at the records that we
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: have here headquarters, you're not actually an official member of
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: five Beta Sigma. I don't know what has taken place,
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: but what you mean not a member? Looking at our
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: records here at national headquarters, it's indicating that you're not
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: an official member of five Beta Sigma. I don't know
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: what could have gone wrong with this now not It
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: ain't right? Man, That ain't right because see depth of
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: data is recognized nationally, so why wouldn't I be nationally recognized.
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: I'm not certain, sir. Maybe it's something that took place
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: on that that actual line of Fall ninety one. We're
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: actually going to have to do some research on everything
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: that's going on with your line as well as the chapter.
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: But how is that possible if they gave if they
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: gave me a certifticate in the in the plaque and
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: I got my my opin and I mean I'm a stigma.
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: What you mean? Okay, sir, I don't know what I'm
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: looking at here and and and please understand, I want
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: to try to clear this matter up. Yeah, yeah, we
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: need to do this matter. Who who else? Is there
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: somebody there like U oversee? Uh, maybe the head president
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: or your branch or something I can talk to or something. Well,
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: I'm actually I am actually over pledged relations uh. And
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: I wanted to give you a call personally so we
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: can try to rectify the matter. And it's gonna take
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: us some time to hiring this thing out. But what
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: I need you to do as at this point, and
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: you know what the problem is that I'm noticing is
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: that all of the people that were on your line
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: they are official. For some reason, Mr Gregg isn't official,
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: So I want to I don't understand that because I
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: was the line president. So how how is everybody else
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: able to be your sigma and not me when I
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: did all the paperwork that it takes to for the
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: process to be right. I don't understand sir. You know what, brother? Uh,
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: I can't call you brother for the fact that right
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: now I'm telling me brother because I'm a Sigma. So
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: here's what we're gonna have to do. Greg. We're gonna
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: have to get you to First of all, if you're

• 46:25
  Speaker 1: you don't wear any five beta Sigma peral for now.
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: At this point, we want to make sure and get
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: clarity that you are definitely a brother. Man. Man, I
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: am definitely a brother. Do you know what I had
• 46:37

  Speaker 1: be a signal? All the due y'all, y'all took y'all dudes.

• 58:35
  Speaker 1: Good morning, Stephen Shirley. I am a thirty two year
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: old pastor with somewhat of an issue My wife and
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: I are happily married and we have the typical issues
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: like the next couple. Here's the situation. There is one
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: particular lady in my church who really freaks me out
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: and rubbed my wife the wrong way. I try to
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: avoid contact with this woman because she often says stuff
• 58:59
  Speaker 1: like come here and let me feel on you, or
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: come here and let grandma Grandma make you feel good.
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: This lady is in her eighties, but she doesn't have
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: any limits. She sometimes will randomly stop by the job
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: and bring me lunch or offered to take me to lunch.
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: Not only that her actions are more than words, she
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: has actually touched me inappropriately several times. Uh. She is
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: very rude to my wife at church. She will say
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: say things to my wife like you need you need
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: me to teach you how to take care of a man,
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: or do you need me to cook for you pastor
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: do you need me to cook for pastor. My wife
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: has told me that when she calls her house, she
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: doesn't even speak to her, but instead we'll just ask
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: to speak to me. Now, my wife isn't as saved
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: as I am, and she has come close to confronting
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: this woman. I don't want this situation to get more
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: out of control than it is. Now, how do you
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: think I should handle this? I don't want to look
• 59:59
  Speaker 1: like a week pastor, nor do I want my wife
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: to catch a case behind this old lady. Okay, are
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: you sure this woman is in her eighties? That's what
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: I have to ask you, because most eighty year olds

• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: she wants that part of her life, you know, be interesting.
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: It would be the first woman, the first nonmarried person
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: in the White House. But see, you could scrap all

  Speaker 1: You don't even have to be either. You could just tweet. Yeah,
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, real kind of government experienced, Steve, is what

  Speaker 1: you're saying, I didn't know you could. Just you don't
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 1: assult people on a daily basis. Yeah, you don't really

• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: you're a very stable genius. You call yourself a genius. Stable. Well,
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 1: now let me say this. I think he's a smart guy. Yeah,
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 1: and I think business wise he is could be a
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 1: bit of a genius. I just don't think he should
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: be the president. All right, coming up at forty one
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 1: after the hour, when we come back, two thousand eighteen predictions. Okay,
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 1: you're listening to the Steve Morning Show. All right, Wow,
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 1: this is such a great subject. I mean, it's new,
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 1: it's the time to talk about it. Now. What we're
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 1: gonna do in two Yeah, kind of a couple of
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 1: motivational days at the top of two thousand and eighteen,
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 1: I think on the Steve Harved Morning Show, maybe we'll
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 1: do a couple of days. It is getting people set
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 1: up and situated with the right mind set to approach
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 1: two thousand eighteen, because you know when when when God
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 1: allows you to see a new year, that's a new opportunity.
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's a calendar year. Man, that's a great
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 1: accomplishment to still be here in two thousand eighteen. However
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 1: old you are, two thousand eighteen is here, So this
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: is a new calendar year. You can get a fresh
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 1: start with a different attitude. So I'm you know, we're
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 1: just talking about two thousand and eighteen. Any questions like
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 1: what we've been talking about. Okay, all right, let's let's
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 1: talk investment, Like what can I do? Let's say I
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 1: tell you. Let's say I hear it. Let's say I
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 1: hear fifteen comic clubs over the course of this year.
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 1: Let's say I take ten and put it aside, ten
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 1: grand put it aside. Each time I I do a gig,
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 1: Where can I put this money and invest it and
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 1: and make it profitable for me? Well not listen, you
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 1: have to think of do you have money to risk
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 1: or you want to make show us? Then when you
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 1: go back to get it with damn show us. There,
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 1: we're okay, damn show us there minimal risk. Okay, it's
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 1: minimal risk. Money market, show me a little bit of
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 1: damn show and not so damn show. Give me some
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 1: way up in there. The stock market. And the reason
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 1: the stock market is always cool is because when you
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 1: do make money on the stock market, in the in
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 1: the in the in the financial bracket you're in when
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 1: you pay taxes on it, you only pay capital gain taxes,
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 1: which is somewhere between eleven and fifteen percent something like that.
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 1: So you only pay taxes. So like, if you make
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: over you know a certain amount of four hundred thousand dollars,
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 1: three hundred thoud dollars, you already up in the bracket, right,
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 1: so now you got to pay forty percent on the money.
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 1: But if you make money in the stock market, you
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 1: get capital gains tax that's on somewhere between eleven percent.
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure what it is, but it's a much
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 1: much lower number. So stock market is good. I'll tell
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 1: your stock that you got to look into this young
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 1: boy and that works for me, invested his money in
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 1: because marijuana is being legalized so many places. He's invested
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 1: money in the people who make the lights that grow marijuana.
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 1: The soil companies for marijuana, the hosing for the hosing,
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 1: and the bins and plant bins. He invest in all
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 1: the supplack. Now, let me tell you what this kid did,
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 1: because he handles my stocks, right, his young kid out
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 1: of more house. So I gave him some money to
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 1: stop much. I've doubled my money easy, easily over the
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 1: year and a half. I mean double it plus more
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 1: than double. So I made a deal with him for
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 1: off the profit of the money, I'll give you a
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 1: percentage for investing in you know, like if I had
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 1: a stockbroker or something, right, right, I get this kid
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 1: his take. He took all his money, this money I
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 1: gave him, you know, just a few few tens of thousands.
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 1: He took all of his money and bought the stocks.
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 1: He's already doubled his money. Wow. He he looks at
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 1: all the marijuana stocks because it's it's climbing and that
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 1: that was a smart thing. Now I'm not saying go
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 1: out and do that, but you know, and they're like,
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 1: he I stayed away from all the bit coin stuff
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 1: because I think it's a bubble. No, let's go back
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 1: to this man Juana part though. So I put over there,
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 1: let it ride. See what happened? Yeah, in them stocks. See,
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 1: I can't buy those stocks because of who you are. Well,
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's just a promise I made to God.
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 1: Me and God got a deal. So I can't dishonor
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 1: the deal I want to God. They're talked about No,
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 1: they ain't make that deal. Right there, They talked about marijuana,
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 1: the supplies, the weed, the hoses, the lights. I mean,
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 1: this little kid, he researched it, and and it's and
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 1: like one of the stocks he bought, he bought at
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 1: a dollar ninety seven cent back when it first got
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 1: that he just did this on his own, that same
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 1: stock he got. It's damn the thirty some dollars. Oh.
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 1: Now it's no shoeing because something could happen to one
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 1: of these companies. But stocks are a cool way, and
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: you can kind of watch it so and you can
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 1: put a stop on your stocks. So like you say, okay, cool,
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna invest this much money in the stock market.
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 1: You can tell your stockbroker, Okay, look, if if my
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 1: stock ever drops to this much, I want to put
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 1: a stop on it, sell it, give me my money out. Okay. Okay,
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 1: you know you know, so you don't evolute like you
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 1: might say, Okay, look, if I ever get down to
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 1: three forth to this or half of this, I need
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 1: you to put a stop on that. At least get
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 1: to get three forths a half of my money back.
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: Oh I might not want to go past this point
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 1: right here. You know, you know you could do things
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 1: like that. So those those that we're talking about stocks
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 1: and stuff, I love it because you know we all
• 1:13:51

• 1:14:00
  Speaker 1: then you catch him and you know, you never know,
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 1: one of these cats could flip it into some real things.

• 1:15:17
  Speaker 1: giving you are just my opinions from my years of
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 1: getting it wrong finally getting it right. Made a lot
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 1: of mistakes being at every economic level, so I'm able
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 1: to talk from a place of experience. But like when
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 1: it comes to money, you know, look, no stock is
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 1: a guaranteed. I don't know everything. You know, if you

  Speaker 1: treasury bonds. It's a lot of stuff. You know, people

  Speaker 1: like annuities. I don't. I don't, I don't. But you know,
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 1: whatever it is that that you want to do, you,
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 1: I'm just giving you thought starters. So Junior, what's your
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 1: next question? Okay? So we talked about losing people, right,
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 1: I'm getting rid of people. The dead weight car. We
• 1:16:02

• 1:16:10
  Speaker 1: I get a job too? That's gonna do the job
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 1: that's qualified. Okay, first of all, let's talk about before
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 1: we replace people, how do we get rid of people.
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 1: I created a checklist. This is my own. I didn't
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 1: get this from nowhere. It's just something I've learned over
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 1: the years. I have a grading system. I have a
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 1: black dot, an asterick, and a check mark, A black dot,
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 1: an asterix, and a check mark. Okay, now this is

• 1:16:47
  Speaker 1: your life. Every time they call you something wrong, it's
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 1: bad news. You can't stand to see their number. Put
• 1:16:54

  Speaker 1: over there. You know, you can discuss this with them,
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 1: but you show bed not bring up that with them.

• 1:17:49
  Speaker 1: to say. Every time you talk to them, they encourage it.
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 1: They got a scripture for you. Maybe they just talk
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 1: to you man. They try to be supportive. They hear
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 1: you out. They always upbeat. They see they the optimistic people,
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 1: they see the bright side, the very positive people. Those

• 1:20:17
  Speaker 1: your phone is toxic. Now you can't use it. Okay,
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 1: Now how do you replace those people? Here's what you
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 1: gotta do. First of all, if you can get rid
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 1: of a person and you don't miss them, what they
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 1: did that was excellent, But now what is it that
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 1: you really thought they were supposed to do or what
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 1: did you really want from them? So first of all,
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 1: you have to determine Number one, where is it you're
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 1: trying to go in two thousand and eighteen? Where do
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 1: you want to go? What are your goals and aspirations
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 1: for two thousand and eighteen? The next the people that
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 1: you're even considering to help you move in two thousand eighteen.
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 1: A's yourself this one question? Have they are they currently
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 1: doing it now or have they done it before? Wow?
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 1: What's that again? The people that you are considering putting
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 1: in your life to help you move through two thousand
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 1: and eighteen and get to the next level. Ask yourself
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 1: these two questions. Are they currently doing it right now
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 1: for themselves or someone else? And have they done it before?
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 1: If the answer is no, do not hide. Okay, that's
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 1: back to Junior's original question. Listen to me. That's why
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 1: every job application you feel out got that same question
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 1: on it. Do you have experience? But we keep hiding
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 1: people with no experience just called they're gonna come in
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 1: there and work hard. Now they're learning on your check
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 1: and all the mistakes you got to pay folk with
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 1: your career. I did all that. Okay, so I got
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 1: another when we come back here. You're listening to stew All, right, Wow,
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I mean, I keep saying it. It's so interesting.
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 1: I mean, this is the way you should start off
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 1: each year, plan the year. You know, you know, surely
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 1: the reason I'm telling people is I've learned this the
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 1: hard way. Now once again, this is just a system
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 1: that I've learned. But I've learned this from a lot
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 1: of big, big people. You know. I've had some people
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 1: they're doing way better than me than shared a lot
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 1: of disinformation with me. There's some of the stuff I
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 1: just had to figure out alone the way. And can
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 1: I say this, Steve, I've known you for a really,
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 1: really long time. I've worked with you for a really
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 1: long time. I have seen you grow into this business man.
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 1: You were not this business man when I first met you.
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no no no.
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 1: I wasn't even close. And I have had I've had
• 1:23:00
  Speaker 1: a lot of bad hires and I and I've made
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 1: a couple of bad hires recently. But remember you all
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 1: asked me what was one of my plans for two
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 1: thousand and eighteen. I'm really I'm I got an organizational
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 1: chart right now in front of me, and I'm plugging
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 1: new people into it. And there's some people that's in
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 1: that that's gonna be gone because I'm not taking you anymore.
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 1: Here's the analogy that Butch Lewis taught me when he
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 1: was living. Yeah, butch Lewis, the fight promoter. Butch Lewis
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 1: taught me an amazing analogy. He said, when you are
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 1: trying to start a company, a business, or you are
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 1: you the person at working in your family, He said,
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 1: Steve you own rope, he said. Now you got on
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 1: tattered burlap shorts, you barefoot, You ain't got no shirt on,
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 1: and you on rope. Now you've seen them jim ropes
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 1: that you climb used to climb to the ceiling. You
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 1: know how I think they are married at the burlout.
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 1: You got one of them connected to a wagon, old
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 1: western wagon with four wheels on it, a flat bed,
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 1: open wagon with sides on it. You got no horse.
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 1: You are the horse. That rope is tied to that wagon,
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 1: and you got that rope across your shoulder and it's
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 1: cutting and you are pulling uphill. You have people on
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 1: your wagon that you are responsible for. Some of them
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 1: are family members, children, business associates, connections. They on your
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 1: wagon because you're climbing to the top. Now, what you
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 1: hope for is that you have people on your wagon
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 1: who at least got one foot hanging over the side
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 1: trying to push up with you a little bit of help. Yeah,
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 1: you know how you skateboard that one leg pushed the
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 1: skateboard before you get on in ride. Hopefully you've got
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 1: some people that's doing that that get off the wagon
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 1: every now and then and just try to knock a
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 1: rock out the way. So when you're pulling up the here,
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 1: you ain't least hitting rocks on this wagon wheel. Maybe
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 1: if you got a spouse, come walk next to you
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 1: and wipe your brow with a cold sponge rag and
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 1: pull water in your mouth, feed you and everybody else
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 1: on the wagon. But everybody need to be doing some
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 1: type of footwork to push the wagon up. The wagon
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 1: heavy anyway, Then at night when you go to bed, see,
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 1: you don't get to let the wagon go. You have
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 1: to take that rope tied around your waist and lay
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 1: back on the hill and sleep the wagon still tied
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 1: to And when you get up in the morning, you
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 1: gotta unwrap that rope and gotta get back on your
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 1: climb with that rope cut across your shoulder. Hit a
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 1: sad part. Everybody got people on the wagon ain't even
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 1: pushing your laying the ass. I ain't just up the
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 1: laying all the way. That's the dead Wait you talk. Wow,

  Speaker 1: how to get in gear your business life, your financial life,
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 1: your relationships, whatever it is. This is two thousand eighteen.
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 1: You had another question for Steve Jr. Or wasn't you,
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 1: Tommy I go after him. Um, you know, I was
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 1: sitting at home over the break right, and I'm sitting
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 1: there and I'm I'm looking at my plane, I'm thinking
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 1: about all the stuff that I've accomplished, and I said
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 1: to myself out loud with no in the house, I said, Man,
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 1: I'm supposed to be happier than this. Mm hmmm. I
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 1: just said that. What no about in there? I just said, man,
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 1: I'm supposed to be happier than this and all the
• 1:27:10
  Speaker 1: people that we talked about earlier today. But I want
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 1: to talk about Lord. I need some ways to start
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 1: feeding my spiritual man. I need to figure out what's
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 1: the best way to go back to God and say,
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 1: you know what, I made a mistake. It's just it's
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 1: just like right there, It's just like you just said.
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 1: See everybody, if you get a closer walk with God
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 1: and make this whole thing better. Now you know you
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 1: say that to some people. What I don't know who
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 1: I got need to meet or talk? You know already
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 1: met him. He created you, so it's a very simple thing. See.
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 1: But what the devil does is he makes it appear difficult.
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 1: He makes you address things that you don't need to
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 1: address before you go to the Lord. No, no, no,
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 1: just go just like you are, Just like you are, broke, confused,
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 1: He just waiting on you. Take the confusion, the lack
• 1:28:11
  Speaker 1: of understanding, take the part where you don't know what
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 1: to do next, and just go. Lord, Take me and
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 1: shape me how you want me to blue, make me
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 1: into who you want me to be. I'm tired of
• 1:28:25
  Speaker 1: do it. I need your help. This is where I
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 1: like to go. But show me the best way to
• 1:28:30
  Speaker 1: get that, or better yet, if you got another plan,
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 1: let's show to show that to me. Here's another part.
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 1: A lot of times when people feel unfulfilled, like you
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 1: should feel better than this, it's because, man, you gotta
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 1: look at your gratitude. See, gratitude is an incredible asset
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 1: to your future. But with all you have, you should
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 1: be grateful for all you have, because man, look at here.
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 1: You ain't where you was. But if you lose sight
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 1: of all that you have, all you focus on is
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 1: what you don't have, and you start blowing it. And
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 1: you have to thank him speaking of gratitude and the
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 1: good times and the bad. No matter what you're going through,
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 1: you still thank him. You're still grateful, you know all,
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 1: And thank him for big and a small all the time,
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 1: and consult him. I mean, he's right there, he's all
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 1: the time, He's always with you always, he never leaves you,
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 1: he never leaves you. So you got to consider that
• 1:29:30
  Speaker 1: as well. He's right here right now, you know, all day,
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 1: because that's some spiritually gifted people out there who could
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 1: probably give you a better answer. But what I've always done, man,
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 1: keep it simple, is I just I just get right
• 1:29:44
  Speaker 1: down to it. I ain't nothing without him. I've come
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 1: to that conclusion. Man, So I'm cool with knowing that
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 1: I would be lost if he wasn't in my life.
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 1: In no way I would be hire. So the more
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 1: I confided him, the more help than the better I feel. See,
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 1: take it off your shoulders and give it to him.
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 1: He handled problems way better than you do. WHOA, what
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 1: a day. We'll come back to close out the show
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 1: with just one more thing and Steve's closing remarks. You're
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 1: listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right here we
• 1:30:18
  Speaker 1: are to close out the show with just one more thing. Wow,
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 1: I feel like I've been to church, been to school,
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 1: everything right, It's been a great day. Yeah. Yeah, So
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 1: let's do close remarks right now in that light right there.
• 1:30:37
  Speaker 1: I just keep it right there, because what Junior was
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 1: talking about, and he shared with this off the air,
• 1:30:44
  Speaker 1: was he said, I feel like I should be happier
• 1:30:47
  Speaker 1: right now than I am with all I've accomplished and
• 1:30:50
  Speaker 1: all I have and I and he is grateful for
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 1: his position, he tells me all the time. But he
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 1: said the one thing that he finally had to come
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 1: to the realization he got so many people pulling at him.
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 1: See it's hard at the top. Man. It's like, oh,
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 1: Will Smith told me this one time. We're just talking backstage,
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 1: and he said, hey man, you gotta understand, Steve. He said,
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 1: it's like a huge desert out here, and you over
• 1:31:22
  Speaker 1: there on this island with these palm trees and waterfalls.
• 1:31:27
  Speaker 1: He said, everybody on that desert. Want to come over there, yeah,
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 1: he said, But there ain't no room over there for everybody,
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 1: he said. But you can't get mad at them for
• 1:31:36
  Speaker 1: wanting to come over there, he said, but day over there.
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 1: So what I decided was, and what I found out
• 1:31:45
  Speaker 1: from talking to other very successful people, that being famous
• 1:31:50
  Speaker 1: is like living in a big, pretty prison. So what
• 1:31:53
  Speaker 1: I had to do was I had to put up
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 1: walls because I can't stop having this island with this
• 1:31:59
  Speaker 1: oasis on it. I like palm trees and waterfalls, So
• 1:32:04
  Speaker 1: I can't not have it because too many people aren't
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 1: over there. So I had put some walls up. You
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 1: gotta get some walls, you gotta get a gate, you
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 1: gotta get some fences. It's like, man, if you live
• 1:32:17
  Speaker 1: in the hood and you want your yard to be nice,
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 1: you gotta fence it because they have mess up your
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 1: grass like they do everybody else's grass. You got to
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 1: fence it. Man. See if you if you got that
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 1: house up there by the school and you're on the
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 1: corner lot, if you don't fence that right there, them
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 1: kids gonna cut cross to cut that corn off and
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 1: mess up your grass. It don't make you messed up
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 1: for putting up your fence to protect your yard. You
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 1: just gotta put up your fences. And the reason that
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 1: you have to not give all your money away every
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 1: time somebody asked you for is because of something my
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 1: father taught me. And I've said it a hundred times
• 1:32:57
