Today's show is pre recorded. Y'all know what time y'all don't know. Y'all have a suit on the don giving them like the million bucks things in the stove through good it to mother. Stay, I don't join join me. You gotta turn hur you go. You gotta turn to turn them out. Turn you got to turn out. Then turn the water the water go. Come come on your thing, huh, I shall will. Good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice, Come on dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Okay. I want to share something with you that I had to come to the realization one time, and even in the reinvention of myself right now, I've had to come to that and I want to share it with you today. Give it to you. I want to tell you about something that a lot of people do in their life and I want you to be aware of it. Here it is, don't get stuck on yourself. You could be wrong. You know I said, don't get stuck on yourself. You could be wrong. You know. The reason I'm saying this is because people have a tendency to once they make a decision about something, or once they decide to go a certain path. They go against all everything, anything anybody says, anything anybody might do, any other ruling they may come across. They shun advice, they don't listen to counsel. They just I made the decision. I'm gonna do it anyway. Don't get stuck on yourself. You could be wrong, you know. Now here's a sure fire way to tell if you're wrong. If you don't see any movement in the direction you've chosen, if you don't see anything going right in that decision, If you feel as though you're interrupt if the wall you're climbing seems so insurmountable that you ain't even moving an inch, and every time you turn around you keep getting knocked by down, knocked back down. Don't get stuck on yourself. You know you could be wrong, you know. See, that's why it's important for people to always be open to the reinvention of yourself. You know, you cannot be afraid to reinvent yourself. In other words, you can't be afraid to change. Change is necessary when it comes to growth. There is no growth without change. The more you know, the older you look, that is no growth without change. If you're heading in a direction. It ain't nothing going right in your life? Could it be be the wrong direction? If you're climbing and you're making no headway, could it be the wrong direction? Could you have possibly made the wrong choice. Don't get stuck on yourself because you never made the wrong self. It's okay to forgive yourself. It's okay to let yourself off the hook. It's even smarter sometimes to admit that you were wrong. You ever met somebody ain't ever wrong. Have you ever met somebody you talk to? They ain't ever wrong about nothing. Man, They just it's their way or the highway. It's this is my way, this is the I know people like that, stuck on them powered trips and all like that. You know what I had to learn how to do. I had to learn how to let them go on them power trips. But listen to this. Though you're not taking me on that trip. Though you're going on that trip by yourself, I'm going in the right direction. I've decided to stop the way. Okay, listen to this person. This person, I decided to stop doing business the way I was doing business. I decided to stop to allow business being done around me the way business was being done around me. You know what, you know, the best decision I made was to allow for God to have some say so and to offer me his direction. I have found him to be a better driver than anyone else I know. I have found him to know more about the man he made than anybody else who's merely associating with me. I have found it to be a fact that my maker knows more about the vehicle he created than does anybody else. If you if your Chevy break don't you take it to Chevy. You don't take your Forward when it break down to a Toyota dealership. They not gonna know everything that the Forward dealership would know about the vehicle. You know why, because they're not the maker of it. So now, why are you letting you letting your life being led, controlled and guided by somebody other than your maker. I'm just asking you to let's all take a common sense look at this. So, if going to your maker's the best way, the best decision I made in my business was take over my brand myself and to allow the maker of this brand see without God, I'm none of this. I'm none of this. I want you to clearly understand I ain't none of this without him. I wish I could have the guts to reach back there and pat myself on the back for what I've accomplished in my life. I wish I had the guts. I wish the nerve of me because I know for or fact that there is no way that I could have manufacted the life that I have. I could not even have thought of it. It's no way I could have told you that this was the route I was gonna take, this is the outcome. Because of it, I had no idea, no clue. The one thing I had, though, was an unshakable faith in God. I had an I just kept believing in him. I kept believing that he had something more for me. And then when I touched base with him and asked him to show me what it is what he had for me, Tada, the magic show began. Because you know what he did. He took all my natural abilities that he had given to me, This gift that he gave me, that he poured into me at birth, that same gift that he poured into you at birth. The moment you go to him and let him show you that gift, and then guess what. Once he takes what he naturally put in you and put his super his superpowers on top of that. Then you have some supernatural things going on in your life and you may not be feeling me. I'm cool with that, but I didn't have some supernatural things happen to me. Every day I wake up some supernatural the man, the rewards of my life, the awards of my life, the accomplishments, the how I'm working, the how I manage it all all that ain't none but God. That ain't nothing but God. You can't even explain this schedule to people. Sometimes when people ask me, Steve, how do you do it? I go, well, it's what I manage my time. Then at the end of when I get through, I say, hey, man, you know what I need to tell y'all for real, it's God. I don't really know, but I'm letting him manage me. So he handling it. He ain't gonna put no more of it than I can bear. Listen to me, y'all, don't be afraid to reinvent yourself and remember this. Don't get stuck on yourself because you could be wrong. You know, you absolutely could be wrong if you don't tie this to your gift, you will be struggling the rest of your life. You're listening to, ladies and gentlemen, it is upon us. The morning time is here, which means one thing. It's time to get it on, get it smoking, get it cracking, get it to doing what it do. This is the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

One of my good buddy's sixteen year old son was training with me, but he stopped coming after my buddy lost his job. I offered to train him for free, but my buddy was too proud for that.

One Friday, he got his check and left the house and never came back. I noticed his clothes were gone, and he changed his number. Well, his checks still come to my house? Do I try to find them?

All right, Quentin and Memphis says, I'm thirty nine and my girlfriend is thirty six, and she has bought me a ring and is planning to propose to me. She can fide it in my mother, and my mom gave me the heads up because I've told my mother that I love this woman, but she's not my soul mate. I certainly don't want to marry her or cause her embarrassment at this engagement party she's planned for us. How do I break it to her beforehand without breaking her heart into Well, what you gotta do is say, look, I was talking to my mom and my mom told me what you was playing, and don't do that because I don't see a future with you. Show you just said he didn't want to break her heart. Okay, what you're gonna do. You're gonna marry her because the only way not to break her heart is to let her go through with her plans.

It is the Strawberry Thank your Nephew. Subject she wants to be the man of the house. Dear Stephen Shirley, I'm thirty eight and I married my beautiful wife five years ago. We both have great jobs, and we bought a big house for our family. When we got married. She came with three kids and her nephew that she's raising for her sister, no problem. I did not have children and I loved being a father. All of a sudden, I have a job that involves a lot of travel, and for the past year I've been out working overseas and I came home as much as possible, but with the pandemic, it was challenging to get back home. That ended four months ago, and I'm back home for good. Since I got back home, I'm beginning to hate my life and my wife. She has become a very controlling person, and it's all because I left her alone for so long. I had this job when we met, and she knew what it entailed, so I was surprised by her attitude when I got home. Has given me an ultimatum to get rid of any female friends that I have, even if she's cool with them. Every weekend, she has a honey do list for me, so if I want to hang out with my boys, that's out. She keeps telling me that I have a lot of things to take care of around the house since I have been gone so long. She goes through my phone when I'm asleep, and it's not a problem because I leave it right there. If she wants to go through it. I have nothing to hide. Sex is always at her command, and she determines when it's over. I tried to discipline the kids and she always tells me I got it, So I let her have that and everything else she wants to control. I want to go back to the country I was living in last year. How can I get my loving wife back? Well, I gotta. This is what I see in this letter. I see that you, sir, are selfish, and you're a little whiny, and you and your wife, I mean, and your wife and I are not here for it is people change, situations change, and they're supposed to change. You've been gone, like you said, a whole year. You came back expecting things to be just like you left them. No, that's not the way life works. I mean, have you ever considered for a moment, how what she's been going through over here by herself. I mean, that's why she's so upset with you. Yes, she knew what kind of job you had initially, but that was five years ago, and you were gone for a very long time. She had to step way up. And may I remind you that she was alone raising four kids while she was still working. She was for all intents and purposes, she was the man of the house. Okay, And it sounds like she doesn't trust you anymore. What happened while you were away all that time? You didn't cheat overseas? I know it's not in the letter, but I gotta ask you didn't cheat overseas, not one time. I mean, you know, come on, you could tell Steve and I you could tell us if you did. You didn't put it in a letter. She doesn't want you around any females anymore. She goes through your phone. Something has caused her to change. To get her back, what I can tell you is you got to try harder. I mean, you guys have got to reconnect. I mean, where's the romance? Have you tried that? You didn't mention any of that. You just came back wanting things to be like they were. I mean, where's a consideration for what she's been going through? I think you should think about that while you're complaining about what your wife isn't doing. Steve, Well, she wants to be the man at the house. I see a couple of things wrong. I see wrong in both parties myself. She's thirty eight, you married. He's thirty eight, married to the beautiful wife five years ago, great jobs, bought a big house, got married. She came with three kids and her nephew. She was raising forces to guy said, no problem, said, I didn't have children. I live being a all of a sudden, got a job that travels him allot for the past year, been out the overseas working. Came home as much as possible with the pandemic, it was challenging to get back home. That ended four months ago, and I'm back home for good. Now since he came back home, I'm beginning to hate. I'm beginning to hate my life and my wife. Now you're gonna tell me why, But I'm gonna tell you why. She has become very controlling person. Well she hasn't. She had to be because she was in charge of everything. She had to take control with the four kids. Okay, and it's all because I left her alone for so long. Ta Okay, do you understand, bro, I had this job when we met, and she knew what it entailed. She had no idea you would be gone this long. She had no idea that would be a pandemic. She had no idea you wouldn't going to be able to come home for Hold on, Steve, hold that thought. Okay, we'll have part two of your response coming up at twenty three minutes after the hour. Today's Strawberry letter, subject she wants to be the man of the house. We'll get back into it right after this. You're listening show, all right, Come on, Steve, let's recap today's Strawberry letter, the subject she wants to be the man of the house. See, this guy married this beautiful woman, been married five years. She came with four kids. He loved being a father. They had great jobs, they bought a big house, they moved in. Everything was great. He has a job that he travels a lot. So that was it. The pandemic hit. It was hard for him to come from overseas. He's been overseas for a whole year, and now when he came back, he hates his life and his wife because he says that this woman has become controlling and it's all because I left her alone for so long. Well, you have your answer right there, sir. I mean she's been in charge of everything for a year. And then you said I had this job when we met, and she knew what it didn't tailed. Well, that's not entirely true. She may have known what the job entailed, but she did not know what the pandemic would entell, as did none of us. No one saw this coming. No, she didn't know that you couldn't come back home. But a couple of times in the past year, she didn't know that she was gonna miss her husband. The pandemic had them kids at home too, They couldn't go to school. So now she at home, she probably working for home. She got them four kids at home. That's a lot dug So then she gave you an ultimatum to get rid of any female friends that I have, even if she's cool with them. Now that came out of nowhere, So I'm going to as soon. Don't nothing just come out of nowhere. You have some female friends. That takes up whatever little bit of time you have to make up for being gone so long. And now you're sitting up on the phone talking to these girls. And you've been gone all this time, and ain't no telling what conversations you had with him while you was gone. On Like Sherley said, what you're doing. You've been gone a year? Dog, Come on Pardner, let's get see in the pandemic. So now she told you you gotta get altimated. You gotta get rid of all the female friends out there, even if she's cool with them. You're thirty eight, you're married, you're a father. I don't even see how you got time for female friends, which are taking up time that you would have to devote to your family. Since you've been gone every weekend, she got a honey dude list for me. So if I want to hang out with my boys women women do? You've been gone for a year, you're back. You got the female friends. You don't really want, want to give them up? Now you want you want? You don't want, no honeydo lists. You don't want nothing to do. She'd been doing all year with the kids. You got a honey du list on the weekend, and you want to hang out with your boys, partner, Come on, man, it's time for her to get a break. See you're coming home wanting breaks, but you really be trying to find need to be trying to find a way to give her a break. You could save your marriage if you would take some time out to give her a break. She keeps telling me, I have a lot of things to take care of around the house since I've been gone so long that that sounds like truth. She goes through my phone when I'm asleep, and it's not a problem because I leave it right there. If she wants to go through it, I have nothing to hide. Well, she found something before. Ain't a woman just suspiciously going through your phone without being suspicious? Partners, something happened that you ain't putting in the letter? All right? Sex is always at her command, and she determines when it's over. Now, ain't that always the case? Don't that's that's bro, We're done here. They do determine when it's over. You do realize that? Stop? Uh stay over it. I don't want I'm tired. Catch me in the morning. Okay, yeah, bro, So I don't know why you put that in the letter. It ain't a man know where going? I feel you, dog. I tried to discipline the kids and she always tells me I got it. So I let her have that everything else she wants and everything else she wants to control. Now here's the key to the letter. I want to go back to the country I was living in last year. See, wasn't all these problems over there, but now she was over here catching hell with the four kids, bro, And you don't really see that. How can I get my loving wife back? Well, the only way I think you can get her back has become the loving husband. Because right now, man, I was trying to be on your side a little bit dull. But tomorrow read this letter. You got to really you got to come in here and make her for lost time. Now she has changed, but the pandemic changed her. The little wild sex kidding you had and all that had to be a mother at the house, home school and at the house and working from the house. The pandemic ate ups ate up a lot of relationships, dog the family dynamics change. They are all home now. Now you're back, and you want to sit on the phone with the girls and hang out with your boys. She's gotten used to handling everything. She's been doing it for a year. She got a system in place. Now now you have things you have to get back to. You gotta get you. You gotta get a lot of up keep back with the kids in the house. You got to gain her trust back. And if you don't want to put the work in, brother, then this marriage is over. Yeah, and now let me tell you what's gonna happen. She's gonna have some proof and all this money you're making oversees them two good jobs. She's finna get half that. You do, understand that. So you can get your loving wife back if you get back to being who you supposed to be. Dog. And I hate to dump this on your playoff, but really that's what it sounded like in this letter. Good luck. All right, Thank you, Steve. Post your comments on today's Strawberry Letter. It's Steve Harvey FM on Instagram and Facebook, and check out the Strawberry Letter podcast on demandable you're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, Junior is here with sports Talk. What you got Junior? First of all, can we just say congratulations to the Rockets for winning a game. We want to just say that for them. Yeah, twenty straight losses, we're proud of y'all. Wait, welcome to March. Welcome Dame won again, says February fourth. Wow. Yeah. So, but also fans were looking forward to Mike Tyson and Evan the hold of Field whatever fight. Then it's not gonna happen. It's been canceled. Good. Yeah, it's been canceled. Man. It was really scheduled to take place during the Mother Day weekend at the hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens to Florida. But twenty five million apparently wasn't enough for Mike Tyson to return to the ring, and according to holy Fields camp, there were intense negotiations for months and he just said we were we're negotiating with good faith all along. It appears he just ended up wasting our time, so Holy Fields manager Chris Lauren said meanwhile, and another source that Mike Tyson and even originally agreed to split the prophets fifty fifty, but Tyson wanted more money. So yeah, hopefully there's uh, there's some, there's some you know, there's some hope for a future fight. But twenty five get hurt. Let's let's get hurt for twenty five million times. Why you wouldn't get hurt for twenty five I would? But you you gonna want to be Mike Tyson hurt. You don't get to enjoy your twenty five million. Yeah, you know, hard to have a good time when your nose ain't on your face. You got twenty five million, but you got people feeding. It ain't good. Yeah, it's not worth it. It's not it's not not twenty five ain't worth doing that, you know, I don't. I don't think that. First of all, it wouldn't have been a really good fight because you've seen the best of them. But it would have been interesting. Mike, Mike, don't care about money like that, no more. That's the difference. Yeah, got we need money. Yes, I'm fighting. I'm fighting anybody for twenty five millions, would you fight? Would you fight Timing? Would you fight Time? Twenty five dog? Tim mass behind? For twenty five million, you're gonna get I know you're quicker than me and all that, But for twenty five million, you're not gonna blue leave am my old ass gonna put forth? How many?

Nice job fight yeah right that second round? No, dog, you're gonna look like a whole nother fight out. All right, Thanks Junior. Uh, we'll be back with more of the Sea Harvey Morning Show right after this. You're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right. So, guys, hip hop artist Sweetie and Quavo from Amigos are no longer together. I think everybody knows that by now. And now, Yeah, you're you're broken up about it, aren't you? You're heartbroken. Sweetie is insinuating that he cheated on her, and according to him, she's not the woman he thought she was while there Heaven. Rumors circulating about the car he gave to her that he'd repossessed the Bentley in the wake of their public split. Those rumors are not true. Sources directly connected to Quevo said it didn't happen. The word on the street was that he'd sent the repo man out to Sweetie's house in the wee hours of the morning to take the car back. He'd supposedly leased it and never put it in her name, and the deal he struck with the dealership allowed him to end the contract early. While that story sounds likely, it's not true. So here's some question, guys, here's a question for the guys. Have you ever taken a gift back after a breakup? Junior? Starting with you, Oh no, I had no money, no gift for you I had. I just had to leave, that's all I You didn't take it back? Yeah, yeah, I took myself out of that situation. And no, I couldn't. I didn't have the money. Then, all right, all right, okay, Steve. Have you ever taken a gift back after a break up? Oh no, I couldn't. What do you mean you couldn't? Now, I had to stay clear once I break up. It's pretty ugly. So I got what you got? Yeah you got. I don't get what you had. You had, you have all that. I gave away houses before. I don't let alane a purse. I wish I would be asking you for that shoe back. I got to get clear, dog, I didn't let houses gone. I ain't got a chance of Yeah, I don't got a chance of getting nothing back mon relationship. I don't even give it there or you want some money here now a matter of fact, I hadn't paid to get out of relationship get give gifts back.

One of my good buddy's sixteen year old son was training with me, but he stopped coming after my buddy lost his job. I offered to train him for free, but my buddy was too proud for that. His son called and said he was coming back to training and he'd pay me. He gave me cash, and I noticed a roll of twenties in his gym bag. I was at a loss for words. Am I supposed to tell my buddy about this first? Or is it okay to ask the boy about it? Well, you're better asked this boy. But you gotta roll the twenties. We know what's happened.

Yeah, this ain't the time to be you. Ain't this ain't your friend right right? Right? Takes all it takes all of us to save you. Yeah, absolutely it does. All right. We're moving on. A year ago. This is from Beverly and Little Rocket. Year ago. I met a man that can sing his behind off. He was very romantic, and he swept me off his feet. He moved in with me after four months of dating, and a few months later he landed a great job doing backup vocals on an album. He was making money, and he started feeling himself. One Friday, he got his check and left the house and never came back. I noticed his clothes were gone and he changed his number. Well, his checks still come to my house. Do I try to find them? Do I try to find him? Or throw them away? Well, throwing him away don't help nobody. I know you're mad, but throwing away money, what do that accomplish? You know?

That Just just hold on to the checks and you'll be able to get a couple of questions answered. Or you cut a deal. I got your checks, you know, commit thousand dollars, I give them to you. You know he's doing good, something like that. Or you know you can't stand on the porch and you can open the curtain and they didn't want you set the checks on five? Yes, come on, ye, yeah, yeah, good answer. Yes, I'm on close coming up. It is our last break of the day and we'll have some closing remarks from the one and only Steve Harvey at forty nine minutes after right after this, you're listening Morning show. All right, guys, here we are our last break of the day on this Wednesday hump day, midweek, Yeah, midweek. Yeah, what's on your mind, Steve? I don't you know, I'm really good. You know, I'm looking at our country and I watch how we are now ted crews. After the Boulder shooting. He made another statement. Man, he is just that dude. Here we go after every mass shooting. We have this conversation that we need to do something, but nothing we're proposing to do is gonna stop these mass motive murders. He's such a liar. Nothing that nothing that they would agree to do could stop these mass murders. This doesn't happen in certain countries because you can't own these types of weapons in certain countries. They are banned. You cannot sell them, you cannot bring them in. Yeah, this is all about money. It's as simple as that. And that these parts politicians have proven in this last election and the support of Donald Trump, that what's important to these politicians nothing is bigger than their money and their power, and in order to get the money in their power, they have to maintain the position. So they're never going to get rid of these gun laws until we get rid of them. See now, the NRA is the biggest funder to the Republican Party, and they put money behind these candidates, and these Republican candidates that don't support the Second Amendment, they withdraw their funding. So they're going to do it. And it's a sad thing, man, that they're willing to sacrifice so many lives and not care. They genuinely do not care, because they care more about their position, power, and money than they do the lives of innocent people. This country is so free that we are freely destroying ourselves. You know, this bowlder shooting guy, they walk him out in handcuffs with blood running down his leg. He took his vest off and everything in shirt and they walked him out. That don't happen to black people. You know. We look at the way this country is, and what I'm getting more and more sick of is the Republican Party and their senators and the people who backed them, because they really don't care about other people. They care about themselves too, because they put people in there who only care about themselves. And I'm sick of not saying it, because if you vote for these people, it's because you believe in the policies of these people. And if you re elect these people, you heard what they said and you must be okay with it. And it just bears true with the fight that Donald Trump put up this election. They believe what he says to be true. And seventy two million people voted for him. You heard everything he said. You heard it, the misslum Band, the killing, the Docker program, the wall, the anti gay rhetoric, all of this stuff right here. All of this. You talk about physically disabled people, you talk about anybody, you dog every black person that has an agenda. Anytime you come out with and get on your soapbox is something to do with blacks. It's the kneel and it's the Black lives matter, and you make statements that are completely false, and these people here and they back him. This is the United States we live in. This is it. I'm sorry, Well, I'm just talking about Donald Trump and to what he's still fell and represented and how and how they voted for him. And this is the country we're in, man, And what we just proved in this last election as people of color, is that we are powerful voting block, and once we see something about themselves, we don't usually give that back. So we're going to be effective in the next election, the simpler elections too. We're gonna start voting in everything, and we're gonna start showing up and we're gonna get behind this People's Right Act, and we're gonna make sure that this gets through our Senate, our Congress, and we're gonna make sure that the Voting Right Acts for Black people never have to be voted on again. Why do we have to go and vote on this every so many years determined? If we can just go vote again, and we're supposed to be Americans, Man, y'all miss me with all this talking about how great it is over here. America's a great country that has a lot of great problems, that needs a lot of great fixes. And we got a lot of people who ain't trying to fix it. And I've been looking at them, from climbing over the wall to the way they handle that, to the voting to everything, and they just keep going. And these are the things that we have to be conscious of as voters. Man, who's in here voting against the Voting Right Act. Who's in here pushing to leave gun laws the way they are? Who in here is shooting down every time we have a shooting, they got a stand up and defend guns and all this here, These are the people that have to be removed. This country is turning a little bit, and it's never been this way before. When Georgia turned blew, that was scary for them. Texas was almost that was scary for them. They trying to do stuff about this man. They see the turn coming, but there's nothing they can do about it. Y'all, we will never ever let them play a short again. Those days are done. You're gonna count us, you're gonna recognize us, and you're gonna respect us. For all Steve Harvey contests, no purchase necessary, void where prohibited.
