Got a radio show because God in the blessing. Business. Got a radio show because God is in a forgiving business. Got a radio show because God to let you turn your life around. Business. Got a radio show because God no better than you know. Yeah, Steve Harvey got a radio show. Didn't see it coming, but he did. I'm gonna share with you today a principle of success. You know, it's it's important that we get our lives together. I mean it really really is. You know, to hear after is exactly what it says, is to hear after, and hopefully for the majority of us, that's quite a way He's off. So what about how you living today? How about it now. You know often talk to you talk in the morning about your relationship with God that can never change. That is at the forefront and the best thought process that I can give you. And I know who I'm talking to on the radio. I'm talking to a lot of people, man, who out there just not sure. And I'm talking to a lot of people out there man that's trying to pull it together. In other words, you know, I'm talking to a lot of people like myself. There is a principle of success that is out there that if more people understood one of the bait. This is just one of one of the basic principles of success, you would have more success in your life. And that principle is this, the more people you help become successful, the more successful you become. Well, the more people you help become successful, the more successful you become. Because you are a practicing helping your and as you do onto other then it's done unto you. You know, you you you build relationships. When you do that, people forget in success, that has to be relationships. There is no one person in this world who is just successful all on their own. You are successful, and successful people form relationships and You've got to really coddle these relationships. You've got to nurture these relationships. They don't just happen. You don't just get cool with people just cause you cool. No, you've got to do some cool things to these people and for these people, for these people to be cool with you when you need some cool. I don't know if I'm explaining that right, but that's the best way I can tell it to you. I'm just regular, you know, I'm I just speak like that. This is an important principle to put into your life. The more people you help become successful, the more successful you become. You cannot look. You have to say to people, hey, look, I've done that. This is what you got to do. You got to take some time out to share. You have to share information, experiences, thoughts. You got to take a minute man to uplift somebody, give them some encouragement. Hey man, you can do it. Don't give up. You have no idea. You you you right now. You have no idea how significant you are to someone else, how your words of encouragement could be the difference maker. Today I'm talking about it's a person looking at you that you don't even really know you you don't really know them, and you see them struggling with something, just say, hey, you know what, I've been watching you from afar. You're gonna be all right, man, I see something. Men. You keep doing the right thing. Man, You're gonna be all right. I had a meeting with a young man for the first time. And this young man came into my office. I never met him. He has an internet service, which anybody can teach me something about the Internet because I know little too close to nothing. It was twenty seven years old, and he was amazingly bright at this and I guess you know that it's not that hard to impress me. But the fluids speech pattern that he had about this very very difficult subject. He was tossing around the terms I had heard, but he was actually putting him in sentences where it made sense to me. It's very fluid, very very sure of himself. When he was talking about this little thing's young dude, twenty seven years old. And when he got through, the woman that had introduced me to him, I was leaving my office and she was going to escort him out, and I turned around and I said, young man, I said, what what size pants? Are you? And I guessed it because I'm I've been dressing for long. I've been all the sizes. And I said, you bout a thirty ways? He said, yes, sir. I said, what side? Shoot you ways? At nine and a half? I said, what side shirt is? At a medium? He said, I really like extra lodge. I said, well, that's too big for you. You just want to look lousy and bagging. And so I was talking to him and I said, man, I'm gonna help you out. I said, man, because let me tell you something. You're a sharp young dude. Man. You are raised a shop. I say, You've really really impressed me today. I said, and you know what, young brother, I said, You're gonna make a lot of money one day. Man, I said, but I want you to get your image up. I want you to. I want you to look at how you dress because you're coming into professional people's office and you're talking about doing something for them and it and it takes money to make it happen. I gotta give you money to make this happen. What you cannot afford to do is look like you need every dime with this money. See you get when you're going there and you're talking about money with another person. The person that's gonna give you this money. Cannot it can't look like you need every dime of this money, you know, So you gotta start presenting yourself. And that's all I just said to him. And I just said, man, but you know what, you shocked. You're gonna make yourself some money. I'm gonna help you out a little bit. I walked out. I went on about my business. Later on that afternoon, I had a meeting with the woman that bought him in and she said, mister Harvey, you have no idea what you just did. He said, his eyes just teared up when you walked out. He said, wow, man, that man don't even know me, and he just encouraged me. He's a man always thought I might could make it, but he said I ain't. Never had nobody like him tell me I could make it. And just hearing it from him, man, that's all right. I'm gonna I'm gonna get my clothes together. But you know, I've been homeless. And then he started telling the woman that he had been homeless, and so you know, then she telling me that now I'm fitting cry cerus. You know, I've been in that hole before, and I just and I'm just sharing that story. What y'all just to say? You don't know who you talking to, but what does it hurt if you just extend your hand to a person and give them a moment of encouragement. See this young brother right here, he could come back one day and be a major benefit to me because he has a skill set that I don't have. Oh. I might be old, mister Steve Harvey, but hey, guess what, I don't know nothing about what this young cat know and either went off and educated himself, and just a word of encouragement from somebody like yourself can make all the difference in another person's life. So remember on your way to the top. The more people that you help become successful, the more successful you become. It's a requirement of God that you do that. That ain't Steve Harvey talking. If you read your Bible. Somebody got a Bible verse that backed me up. Email it to me today if you know what it is. I don't know, but y'all do out there all right, you're listening, ladies and gentlemen. It is here the beginning of a new day.

I have more at another time. That's all I got to say. Yeah, coming up at thirty four minutes after the hour, we'll talk about the new ruling from the CDC. Right after this, you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show, the CDC and Doctor Fauci announced yesterday that if you're vaccinated against COVID nineteen, CDC says, you can take your mask off indoors. That is great news. That is great. But I wait though, Okay, that's great now. I think it's a little bit. You've been vaccinated, you can take your masks off indoors. So, uh, they're just saying that for the people who know that vaccinated. But so, what you're saying is a person can just tell you they vaccinated and not. There you go like they need another excuse. Okay, Yeah. A stable released yesterday says the science is clear. If you are fully vaccinated, you are protected and you can start doing the things that you stopped doing because of the pandemic. Uh. There are some exceptions, though, hospitals, nursing homes and other healthcare related settings, trains, planes, buses, and other modes of public transportation, prisons, homeless shelters. Officials believe it is safe, and I hope that the move will provide another incentive for holdouts to get vaccinated. Vaccinated. So prisons cool, yeah, rcall, no, you have to these are yeah, those are the exceptions where you have to wear your masks inside exceptions hospitals, nursing homes, other healthcare related settings, trains, planes, buses and other modes of public transportations, prisons, homeless shelters. So that's just about everywhere. So they got some all inmates have to wear a mask prison, yea, yeah, I don't know if y'all have them. Well, I know y'all at but one of the hottest places it's mugging in the dog. Boy. Let me tell you something. Jails ain't that condition. They don't do that. It's supposed it's jail. But but no. But at the same time, man, a lot of jails in prisons are very very inhumane treatment. It's very very inhumane treatment because some of these people, I mean, so many people are in there for non violent drug related offenses. You don't have to treat the people that way. You just don't. You just don't. Some of these prisons a lot of the man of very inhumane. Yeah, you know, it's like, you know, maximum security, twenty three hour lock up, one hour out that that's I mean, man, a person has no social contact. You know, you got him in there for life. I mean, come on, man, no sunshine, no nothing, you got him in there. For life or whatever you want to say the crime was. But you don't have to. You don't have to, you know, I'm just saying, I know. People go you ain't never had nobody? Yes I have, Yes I have. I've lost relatives to murder. Yes I have. I have lost people to murder. Friends, Yes I have. Don't so don't don't. Don't hit me with the what you haven't had. It's still some inhumane treatment of people in these prisons, and it shouldn't be that. Well, man, it just shouldn't. I'm just saying, yes, So back to it. If you've been vaccinated against COVID nineteen, the CDC says you can take your mask off indoors, okay, who If you're fully bactrignated, you are collected. But when fly, you need to wear your mask. I'm winning, my man. Yeah, And the elevators, you're a lot of places. See yet that I get you comfortable with. I think you should wear your mask in public transportation anyway, whether it's COVID, Yeah, I think you should. I mean that the flu and all the other you know, diseases we knew about before COVID. You know what I'm saying. How many times have you gotten sick from being on a planet. Once I found out Al was dirty, I'm through. I'm wearing this mask, but I'm winning. I ain't breathing raw al, no motives and what else I like? You know what else? I like the six feet apart. You know too, because a lot of people have a tendency to get too close and be all in personal space. Yeah, well black people have been We've been wanting people to stand all for us at Lisa.

We could be reading your letter life on the air, just like we're gonna read this one right here right now. That's for you. Jay buggle up and hold on tight. We got it for you here. It is the Strawberry letter subject. He assumed I was stupid. Dear Stephen Shirley, I'm thirty four years old and I was dating a guy that's thirty two years old, and we broke up because he said I am not a team player. A week ago, he had to put his car in the shop and he asked if I could pick him up from the repair shop. I went by to get him, and he said his car would be ready in a week. I had planned to drop him off at home and go to dinner with my coworker. I got to his house and went in to use a bathroom. I noticed he was in his closet and he had a suitcase on his bed. I asked him if he was going somewhere, and he said he would be staying at my house all week until his car was fixed. That way he wouldn't have to rent a car or have me driving him around. Now, Stephen Shirley, I am a hard working, independent woman, and I always have been self sufficient and had my own car and place to live. These men I'm meeting nowadays think it's okay to lean on a woman for support or have the woman go out of her way for them. I was disappointed in him for assuming he could stay at my house and he could use my car without asking me first. I asked if his insurance policy covered a rental car, and he said he didn't include it in his policy because it would have raised his premium. Here's the biggest issue I have with all of this. If the roles were reversed, I could never assume I am staying at his house and he wouldn't let me drive his BMW for a week. Hell, he wouldn't even offer to drop me off at work and pick me up. After a heated discussion, I left him at his house and went to dinner with my coworker. Later that night, he broke up with me, and I was stunned. Am I wrong to have such high standards? Well, I'll say this, no, I don't think you're wrong to have standards. Standards, Standards. You know, Steve wrote a whole book about that very thing, and act like a lady, think like a man. Standards and requirements is what he called it, and it's where a woman should, you know, have certain expectations from her man, your man or x man is wrong. Yes he is. For assuming he could lay up on you without at least asking you first communication is key here. You didn't say in the letter how long you guys had been dating. You just said you're thirty four and he's thirty two. But obviously it wasn't long enough for you for him to be asking you this. I don't think he was right for you anyway, because you said if the roles were reversed, he wouldn't do the same for you, and it sounded like you were pretty clear about that. So why were you even stunned that he broke it off with you when you said no. I think he's moved on, and I think you should move on as well. Steve, this is an interesting letter because I find us some problems in both of these, the letter writer and the guy, and I'll share it with you. He assumed I was stupid, Well, that the top topic of the letter. I'm not sure that he assumed you are stupid. I think he assumed a bit much, and I'll show you what I mean. Thirty four years old, you're dating the guy to thirty two. We broke up because he said I'm not a team player. Now, based on this letter. I think he's right in saying you're not a team player, but I also think he went about this the wrong way. So I think there's wrong on both sides in this letter. A week ago, he put his car in the shop and he asked you if you could pick him up from the repair shop. I went by to gaining. He said his car would be ready in a week. I planned to drop him off at home and go to dinner with my co workers. Okay, that's fair. I got to his house and went to use the bathroom. I noticed he was in his closet and they had a suitcase on his bed. I asked him if he was going somewhere, and he said he was gonna stay at my house all week until the car was fixed. That way he wouldn't have to rent a car or have me drive him around. Now he's wrong right here because he assumed this. He didn't have the courtesy or the decency to ask this woman, So he was wrong, like two left shoes for this now, Stephen Sherla, I'm a hard working, independent woman. I've always been self sufficient to have my own car, in a place to live. These men I'm meeting nowadays think it's okay to lean on a woman's for my support. I have a woman go out of her way for them. Now we are dealing with the woman who has some preconceived notions about men. She has put all men in the same category, or at least all the men she's meeting. So obviously she's been meeting a lot of men that wants to lean on women. And I understand her feeling that way, but he was wrong for human this. But she just went, Okay, here we go again, same old, same old. These dudes I'm dating nine days, I all think this way. Then she said I was disappointed in him for assuming he could stay at my house and he could use my car without asking me first. He had absolutely no right to assume. That's the problem in this letter. He assumed something that obviously shouldn't have been taken for granted, So he was wrong for that. Then she asked if his insurance policy covered rentram car, and then he said he didn't include that in his policy because he would have raised his premium. I don't know how much extra that is the rental car clause, and I don't know how much that raises the premium. But I was always taught that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, and right now a rental car is the pound of cure. He would have saved himself some problems with that, a little bit of money to just pay for that clause and his insurance problems. Now, when I come back, I will show you what's really wrong here, because she had some notions about him not being able to do the same thing my ship. When you come back. All right, thank you, Steve. We'll have part two of your response coming up at twenty three minutes after the hour. Subject forward today's Strawberry letter. He assumed I was stupid. We'll get back into it right after this. You're listening morning show, All right, Come on, Steve, let's recap today's Strawberry letters. Subject he assumed I was stupid. Well, I don't know if he assumed he was stupid, but he was stupid for assuming. In this latter he got his car fix. The woman she asked him to come pick him up here riding home, told her that his car is gonna be in the shop four week. She had plans of dropping the man off at home and going to dinner with some coworkers. She got to the man's house and went to the bathroom. She came out. He had a suitcase house. She asked him man if he was going somewhere. He said, I'm gonna come over here and stay at your house for a week, so I ain't got to rent no car and you ain't got to run around picking me up. She was offended because he assumed that he could come and stay at her house, and she's absolutely correct. He should not have assumed. He should have asked this woman, Hey, I was just thinking, do you think it would be okay if I stayed at your house? Because I don't have a car and Mike needs something to look I hate to be a bother, but you know, blah blah blah blah, it would have sounded better, but you assumed. Then the woman turned around and ask him that his insurance policy covered at him. He said he didn't put it in his policy because he wanted to boost up the premiums. Well, now we got a little bit of thing. Go run here, because the guy is dead wrong for assuming this. But now she was disappointed in him for assuming he could stay at his house and he could use my car without asking me first. She's absolutely correct in this. But now the dude there was another party. Now I wanted to show him, ask him if he goes anyway. I might have missed that point. But anyway, she's a hard working independent woman. Here we go. This is the part these men I'm meeting nowadays thinks okay to lean on a woman for support or have the woman go out of her way for them. Um Man, that's a bad look, fellas. And for her to be feeling that way, obviously she's been dealing with jet that in her relationship and she probably thought to herself, Okay, here we go again. Dude was wrong. And for assume that he doesn't want to gulp insurance policy premis go up, so he left that out. Then she says, here's the biggest show I had with all this. If the roles were reversed, I could never assume I'm staying at his house. So oh whoa, Yeah, so now you're dating a guy and you said if the roles were reversed, I could never assume I'm staying and at his house. My question is, and you know this exactly, and you know this, and then he wouldn't let me drive his BMW for a week. Wait, a minute, and you know this, And he wouldn't even offer to drop me at work and pick me up. Wait a minute, and you know this? What the hell you dating this dude? Fault? You dating a dude who won't go out of his way for you at all? And you know this. So after heated discussion, I left him at the house and he went to dinner with my co worker. Later that night, he broke up with me, and I was stunned. Am I wrong for having such high standards? Wait a minute, I'm sorry your standards aren't high enough. Excuse me? Why are you stunned? Here's a dude that would not offer to let you stay at his house if your car broke down. Here's a dude who would not let you drive his car if your code car broke down. And here's a dude who won't pick you up and drop you off at work if your car broke down. Now you stunned because you broke up? What? I was stunned that she was stunned? Right, I'm stunned that this is who you're dating. YEA, Knowing all that you know about this young man, you're still in it. Here's y'all's problem. This must not be a serious relationship. It can't be. And the two of you don't have a clear definition of what you are. Because if this is your man and you are his woman, all these stuff y'all having problems within this letter seemed to me would be automatic. If this is my woman, why would I have a problem with her staying at my house? Fore, if this is your man, why would you have a problem with him staying at your house? This one? But the real problem is he assumed some things about you, and you know some things about him. He assumed he should stay with you, drive your car and you pick him up and taking work. You know you couldn't stay with him. You can't drive his car and he've hit to pick you. I'm dropping off. We don't have a mat chick, Yeah, because we don't have a relationship. So you went out to dinner with your girlfriend, you came back and your friend, and now he tell you he breaking up with me because you're not a team player. Well, the problem is, ain't either one of y'all team players. So what we're talking about him? You're not a team player. He's not a team player. Don't neither one of y'all. This ain't a team, y'all got y'all theyn't got a team, So I don't know what? Yeah, you know, you ain't got nothing here? Keep it moving, hell, y'all. Why y'all seeing each other's ragney ragnheads relationship y'all got and you stunned because he broke up? Hell not he stunned because you won't let him stay with him. Yeah, but he was wrong for so many issues. At least ask a woman, give her the courtesy. Yeah, but then the reason you really ain't got no renter cause you ain't want your premium zone. Okay, flat, definitely a red frid flat. That's smiling, lady, y'all needed you need to say good riddence to this and calling about your business. All right, you're right, Steve, Thank you.

According to Beet, our friend R and B singer Tank has revealed that he is losing his hearing. Tank posted on his ig account that he is going completely deaf in one year one ear and losing hearing and the other Tanks said that he is dizzy, can't walk straight line. Just take a listen, please. So I'm going through something right now, and I want to use my situation to encourage your situation. I'm going completely deaf in my right air and I'm kind of losing sound in my left. I'm dizzy, can't walk a straight line. All of this out of nowhere. Don't know how or why. Seeing the doctor's got MRI and all that good stuff going on, medication, you know all of that, But you know, it still hasn't given me a reason to give up. Still hasn't given me a reason to stop feeling like I can do and be everything that I've set out to be. The goals are still the same, to be great, to be the greatest, And I want to say that to you too, No matter what you're going through, no matter where you find yourself, whether your body's failing you, whether your mind is failing you, whether your spirit is failing you, keep going, keep pushing. I'm a document my process just to just to show you the fight, just to show you that you're still in it. We're still in it. So much of love to you, and let's keep fighting her. Wasn't there a movie, an Oscar nominated movie about a drummer loser hearing a ro I don't care who he's a movie out now about a drummer. Yeah, I mean Lewis and you're losing any one of your senses. Those five sences are critical, you know. But he has a great attitude, do you know? Um? And we love Tank. I would definitely include prayer to the equation, but you know, I'm not looking. I'm not the ideal Christian by any stretch of imagination. But prayer has gotten me through so many difficult moments. Of course, I haven't lost my hearing to anything, but I've lost just about everything else, I'll tell you that. And prayer has been a very present help. It's const in my life now, you know, sometimes not as much as it should be. But I'm just telling you, man, God has a very present help in the time of trouble, especially now. It's a shame that we wait until we get in trouble. And I'm not talking about Tank by any stretch of imagine. I'm just talking about people in general. It's a shame we wait till we get in a hardship before we really call on him. But and I suggest that you try it when you don't really need him. But when is that? I've found out I've needed him more and more the older I've gotten, I've really discovered a better walk with him. Coming up, it is our last break of the day. It is the last break of the day. Now they say you don't need your mask, but damn it, you should wear your mask anywhere. I'm wearing mine. Mine. That's right everywhere, that's right. Take it off when you get in the house, in the car, okay, and coming up, we'll have some I was in remarks at forty nine minutes after from the One and Only Steve Harvey. Right after this, you're listening to show all right, here we are, guys, our last break of the day and of the week on the Steve Harvey Morning Show. You got you know what we forgot to do yesterday, Steve. We do it every year Yesterday with Stevie Wonders birthday and we always tell them happy Birthday. Yeah, yeah, we posted it though I posted it. Lad Man. One of the coolest dudes in the world. Man, one of the real, real cool dudes in this world. So listen, man, um, I want to do something. I want to read a series of things that I keep in my phone. I did a little bit before, but I want to do quite a few of them. These are things that I pull that I take screenshots of, Like if I find a catchy saying, somebody sends me a motivational phrase, or if I get you know, just something or a scripture that really registers with me, and if they text it to me, I'll take a screenshot of it, edit it down and then save to photos. Then when I get it in my photo section. I have a section in my albums called Motivation, and I transfer all of these things over to my photo app and I put it in motivation and I just have probably I don't know, let me see one two three, four, one, two, three, six, nine, twelve, fourteen, fifteen. I probably got sixty seventy of these things. I'm just gonna read a few of them to you. And what I do for meditation sometimes is sometimes I start my day by just pulling up all of my inspirational messages that I've set myself over the years, and they go back quite sometimes, but these are the ones that matter to me most. And so I have one and I have a pack of lions that's walking and you can tell that they look like they're going out on a hunt. It's just a huge pack of lions and they got a real serious look on their face. And the caption on it says, surround yourself with those on the same mission as you. Surround yourself with those on the same mission as you. Because when you look at lions and they go out on a hunt, they all go out on one accord. They're going to get something to eat. Ain't nobody going in there playing and all this. Here, Hey, let's go down there and see the gazelles. Let's race now. No, they get serious, they get in stock Molde and they got something to do. And it reminds me to constantly look for people who are going in the same direction as me. Here's what I've read you all before. There's a picture of a carton full of probably thirty white eggs, and one of the eggs is gold, and the caption says, they laughed at me because I'm different. I looked at them because they're all the same. Be yourself. Then I have another one that has this lion walking across the African plain. This one lion, and I mean, he got a nice little pace and he looking pretty serious. And it's an old African proverb. And as you see this lion walking towards you, it says a lion doesn't turn around when a small dog barks. And that just reminds me to keep my pace going where I'm going. When them a little haters started talking, them little bloggers that ain't got nothing to do with you. You're lying, You are lying, You are a person on the mission. You're a lying. Here's one there's some writing in the palm of a hand that says, everything you're going through is preparing you for what you ask for. Everything in life is a test. Always remember that you are and it's preparing you for something you ask for. These testing challenges that you go through, they are little things that give you the experience and the knowledge to equip you with the future. Here's another one. Sometimes in order to get where you're going, you need to drop a few people off. Self explanatory. Again, sometimes in order to get where you're going, you need to drop a few people off. That's self explanatory. Here's one that I took out. I don't know why I'm gonna read to you, but it's Isaiah forty one thirteen and Hebrew two and two. But they paraphrase that I do a motivation called Jesus calling. And on one day I was reading this and said, give yourself fully to the adventure of today. Walk boldly along the path of life, relying on your ever present companion. You have every reason to be confident, because MY presence accompanies you all the days of your life and onward into eternity. Do not give in to fear or wary those robbers of abundant living. Trust me enough to face problems as they come, rather than trying to anticipate them. Fix your eyes on me, the author and perfector of your faith, and many difficulties on the road ahead will vanish before you reach them. Whenever you start to feel afraid, remember that I'm holding you by your right hand, and nothing can separate you from my presence. I just use things like that man, and like sometimes man for my morning meditation, I just go to my motivational page and I pull up stuff his one. Trust in his timing, rely on his promises, wait for his answers, believe in his miracles, rejoice in his goodness, and relax send his presence. It just lets me know the whole time that I'm never alone, and that I have a very present help that when Steve Harvey feel like it ain't going right, when I feel like alone and I got decisions to make and I don't know what to do because I have moments like that. When I pray, I always feel better. Offer that same suggestion to you. Find you some things that motivate you along in your life, put them in your phone, and whenever you feel down, go back and read them. At a bright and real joke. If it didn't want it to do again, remarks, Hey, listen, y'all talk to God. He'd love to hear from you for all. Steve Every contests no purchase necessary, avoid where prohibited.
