Y'all know what time is. Y'all don't know y'all baby have all long looking back to back down, giving them bung just like theming buck bus things. And it's cos y'all to me true good to be the hardy listening to move toach other for stoar hand to honey, why don't you join ya? Join me in doing me? Honey? Say you got to turn? Yeah, you're going to do you go, you gotta turn, you to turn turn? You love me? Got to turn out to turn water want to go? Come come on your back at uh 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? Man. I love it when I run up into people and they say that to me. They say, hey, Steve Harvey got a radio show. Then they wink at me. I know they're listening. You know. I got a lot off my chest yesterday. I wanted to clear some things up. And I appreciate y'all giving me a minute, because sometimes you know, you just gotta say some things out loud. Not complaining, but hey, just verbalizing, but realizing that I gotta keep going anyway. And that's for my words this morning to you that I want you to keep pushing no matter what happens. I want to share something with you that's important, that's very very important. See, you have to give God something to bless You know, if your prayer is asking for God's blessings, you gotta give him something to work with. Now, you know, you you you gotta show the spirit of appreciation or gratitude. You gotta let him know that you're in it for the long haul. No matter what happens. Don't turn around, don't go back. You will never ever see what the end could be if you turn around and go back, You'll never know what the end could have been had you stuck it out. You'll never know how good it could have gotten had you not just weathered the storm. That's the thing that gets most people. They get tough for him, It get hard for him, and then they let doubts set in, and then those doubts become facts and the next thing you know, they give up. Ever cross your mind, had you not given up, or had you given your best, what the results of outcome could have been. I look back on my life on so many occasions where in college, I wasn't giving my best. I flunked out. Now it's easy to look at my life nine go yeah, but look at you now. But back then, man, it cost me for so many years that failing to finish, that not giving my all, it cost me a number of years. I wish I could say that it didn't mean nothing, that it was just a blimp on the radar screen screen, But at the time it was major. And so you have a lot of decisions in your life that are happening now. You may be in your twenties, your late teens, you could be in your early thirties, and it is happening. But guess what you'll eventually get through it provided one thing, you never give up. You never turn around and go back. Had I written myself off because of one failure? See, and this is where so many people go but go wrong at two. You write yourself off after you failed at something, the one thing you thought you wanted to accomplish and you failed at it. Now you write yourself as as a failure. Now you go settle on end to life and just see what See what hand you get had when I flunked out of college, had I written myself off as a failure. I wouldn't be here today. When I lost my carpet cleaning company, I would have written myself as a failure. And I wouldn't be here today. When I didn't become my diamond distributed in am Way or a direct distributed in am Way, even I would have ridden myself as a as a failure and I wouldn't be here today. When I bought a distribution kit to become a distributor of of the Bohemian Diet and I didn't make it, I would have ridden myself as a failure. When I became an Hero Williams distributor and I didn't make it, I would have written myself as a failure and I wouldn't be here today. Oh, I gotta list for you. When I got laid off it for a motor company and I ridden myself as a failure, I wouldn't have made it, DoD, Do you need some more? Because I have a story feel with mishaps. I have a story feel with failures. A couple of things now, the grace of God and his mercy which is available to us all. See that's the key, y'all. Because of his mercy because of his willingness to forgive and to even understand why we do the things we do. In all of my shortcomings, failed marriages I'm talking about, man got it all wrong. I can't blame nobody else. It's just me, Steve ain't have it together at that point in life. I could have ridden myself as a failure the first time. I could have. I just could have gave up on it after the second one. And and please know that this is an admission. This ain't bragging. So before you start in with me, understand what I'm saying. I'm pointing out in my life a series of missteps and failures. But how I still get here today a couple of things. God's grace and mercy is first. But that's the key, that's for everybody see if it's God's willingness to forgive you and God's understanding of why we do what we do because He said we wasn't gonna be perfect. So in all of your imperfections, your creator told you you would not be perfect. He said it to you. It's out there. I don't care which one of the books you read, it tells you that. So guess what With that in mind, He has a grace that he has. It's like a grace period. It's like when you don't pay your insurance premium on the day that is due. The next day, they don't just cancel your insurance premium. They have a grace period because they ain't trying to stop this money from coming in. But when it comes to God, there's no money required. He just gives you the grace freely. It don't cost you nothing. So you got tap into that, y'all. You gotta get in touch with that, because that's an important part to making it. Understanding that his grace is available. So when you make a mistake, So when you fail at it, he has a loophole in the contract with him that allows you to make mistakes, that allows you to get it wrong, that allows you to fail time and time and time again. But if you never give up, if you keep getting up, if you keep trying, if you keep striving, if you keep making the effort to go forward and not go back, God has a blessing for you, and He has it in abundance for you, and God will give it to you at the right time. But you got to be ready. Oh, I wanted to be successful but if he had given it to me back then I wouldn't have handled it correctly because I would have made some more mistakes along the way. So you make the mistakes to learn the lessons. And what I learned was every failure that I had was not a really a failure, It was a valuable gained learned experience. And when you get experienced, man, you gain knowledge, knowledge and wisdom. Next thing, you know, you ready for the next time. And then after a while, when you failed enough times at it and you've gotten it wrong and you've made the adjustments as to the person you are, because everybody different, then guess what. Here he comes. Okay, I see you get it. Now, let me go and get you to see how you do that. Then if you show appreciation for it, then he said, all right, I'm gonna add this to your pie. Let me see how you act with it. Okay, you sure appreciation. You help some people with it. Then he dump a little bit more on you. Then next thing you know, it's it's in buckets, fools. You you're just raining on you, you're just dropping it in that you just log Man, God, I've been good to me. I ain't gonna lie to you. You're listening, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, listen to me. This is the Steve Harvey Morning Show. It's open now, it's live, it's vivid color, it's ignorant, it's appealing, it's up.

We don't even know what it is. I have a story about gambling for you. Steve. You're gonna like that. Yes it is. We'll be back at thirty two after you're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show. Well, it's time for something funny, guys. But before we jump into something funny, the Supreme Court on Monday ruckdown a federal law barring sports gambling, in a sweeping decision that could lead to legalized sports betting in dozens of states. The Supreme Court rules six to three to strike down the professional and amateur sports Protection Act. The decision marked a defeat for the federal government and sports organizations who fought to uphold the current ban. In most states, the law had barred gambling on football, basketball, baseball, and other sports, with some exceptions like allowing people to wager on a single game only in Nevada. The Supreme Court ruling now gives states the go ahead to legalize sports betting if they want. How about that. Well, look, here's my opinion. I don't care what they do. We got a president here there's doing some stuff that really can affect our safety and welfare. People are dying because of his decisions. His decision alone to move the embassy over to drule Islam and the Palestines have a problem with that, and people would kill Yeah. Uh who say that the United States has staked their claim and put their thumb on the scale to weigh heavily in behalf of Jerusalem. Man, This is something that no other president has done in the past, because they known that it was you know, you would be end up picking aside. Well, he's picked aside. I don't even really understand it all, To be honest with you, I don't know enough about that part of the world. He no less than you know. That's what's really surprised. You don went over there and just done something no the U. S President has ever done, and it was the reason for it in the middle of the Mid East peace peace situations. Whose ass isn't more trouble than anybody else. But he gave the speech, though he did, and who wants to hear from him? Yeah? I had never heard him talk to him. He the son in law. I'd rather have at Vonka talk well. I mean, he's also one of his closest advisor, Steve. You know, Trump doesn't trust too many people, so he keeps family close by him. He really does. How didn't think of something funny to go to Jerusalem? Twit? Now, it's alright because you know we're talking about gambling gambling. Were talking gamble because you guys like to gamble. I know you, Yeah, you gamble. But I don't bet on games hardly ever. No, I'm not. I'm not a horse track.

Be quiet, Jay, Dear Stephen Shirley, You're not going to believe this. I'm a married man and my wife and I just purchased our first home in a new community. To celebrate home ownership, my boys took me out for drinks. We ended up going to a strip club and I got very drunk, which are two things I had not done since I got married. The strippers were some of the sexiest women I had ever seen, and we pay for our own private v I p area in the club, so we each had a dancer that catered to us all night. My dancer did all kinds of freaky stuff to me. We did everything except go all the way right Afterwards, when I sobered up, I was disappointed with myself and I swore to my boys that I would never go to another strip club. Well, fast forward to two weeks ago. My wife and I noticed a moving truck next door, so we decided that we should go over and meet our new neighbors. As soon as we started walking toward the house, my heart jumped into my throat. Steve. Oh, he singled you out, Steve. One of the strippers from the club was standing by the moving truck. I could tell she recognized me too, But she but she, but she, but she played it cool. My wife introduced us because I couldn't say much. The stripper told my wife that she is a single mom and her child's father bought her the house. He told my wife that she works as a dance instructor and that uh and then she and my wife exchange numbers. As we turned to head back to our house, the stripper neighbor smirked at me. I was sweating bullets. My wife thinks the neighbor is really cool and it's planning to invite her to our housewarming party. Now what am I supposed to do? What? I think? I should just come clean and tell my wife what happened? What do you think? Help? All right? Well, um, congratulations on your new house. How about that? Um? And this is yeah, how about it? Yeah? Right? This is this is somewhat of a whole mess you've gotten yourself into. I mean, what are the odds that your favorite stripper who did all these freaky things to you when you were drunk with your boys at a strip club, what what are the odds of her moving right next door to you? I mean, really, um, this is unbelievable. And guess what, I don't trust you to know, uh, to do the right thing. I just don't. I don't, I don't. I don't trust you to to know all this information and not want to go over there at some point and at the or at the very least, can you just stop sweating bullets in front of her? Can you do that when she's around? Uh? Yeah, because your wife is getting real cozy with her. Your wife thinks she's cool. So your new neighbor, your favorite stripper, is going to be coming over to your house. They've exchanged numbers. They're going to be perfect neighbors, you know, girlfriends. It looks like, so either you get yourself together, brother, and I don't know how you're gonna do that, because she is your favorite stripper, and you remember all those freaky things she did to you at the club. You cannot go out again with your boys and get drunk and go to the strip club. You can't do that. And he's right next door. She's a dance instructor, Tommy. That's what she told his wife. You're you're in a mess. And um you you know, I know Steve's not gonna agree with me. You're gonna have to say something. You're gonna have to say something in terms of what, Yeah, you have to. It's not you have to. You gotta let your wife not because you can't hold it. He's gonna your wife is gonna find out anyway. You can't hold it. You may as well let your wife know something. You met her somewhere. You got to You got to what Dave your turn? What? I can't believe she said, Hey, man, I don't know this dude named Bro. Listen to Bro. Right in the middle of the answers, right in the middle of this letter, he says, Steve, Steve, he's just talking to me. He just says, Stephen Sirley.

Listen to me, that's what my brother told me. Pass Service said to me. He said, once you feel something, you should immediately stop because the rest of it ain't in your blood system yet, he said, So if you continue to post, you ain't drunk. Jesus, the rules for drinking. Once you feel anything, you should stop cup the rest of it ain't in your blood system, and if you post some more in there, you're in trouble. That's the rule for drinking. So now he gotta quit. Then I'm gonna set this up and we're gonna go to break. We ended up going to of the strip club I got, which are two things I've not done since I got married. The strip us was some of the sexiest women I have ever seen, and we paid for our own private v I p area in the club. That's the best worst move you can make. You got to get it private.

Rubbing, bouncing, squeezing, bite fighting, that's all that's going down in there. We did everything except go to go to all the way. Now, right afterwards, when I sobered up, I was disappointed in myself and I sware to my boys I would never go to another strip club. That's the good in him. He came back. But the shirt he woke to the strip club, he can't wear that one home. You had to stop by boys house and get a clean ship, because that should trifle. She's been sliding all up and down on it. He got glit on it. Yeah, you gotta get them shirts off then pass. You had to burn them. Them is in the trash can something tim damn pants got been burnt. Boy, Let me tell you something. Fast forward two weeks ago, my wife and I noticed a moving truck next door. We decided we go over and meet our new neighbors. So when we started walking towards the house, my heart jumped up in my throat. Steve, one of the triples from the club, was standing by the moving truck. Be damn, oh hemn. No. I could tell him. She recognized me too, but she played it cool. My wife introduced us because I couldn't say much. You was froze. You were stuck. The tripper told my wife. She's a single mom and her child's father bought her the house. Strippers got plenty of money. She could be there. The father probably bought her the house helped her, but stripper got money. Dance instructor. Now, hey, turn your mic off because y'all eaten in the Damn Mica, all I hear is nuts. She no, I don't go good. Yeah, I could tell her she introduced me. She recognized me too, She played it off. Mike couldn't say nothing. She said she's a single mom and her child father bought her the house. She told my wife that she works as a dance instructor, which she does. She dances, and she instructs me to put money in her phone. She is true, your dance instructor, and then she and my wife exchange number. Now you're sitting there going what is uh huh? Sweat? As we turned the head back to our house, the stripper neighbor smirked at me. I was sweating bullets. My wife thinks the neighbor is really cool and it's planning to invite her to our housewoman, Oh she coming, Oh the stripper coming. Because strippers don't get invited the house woter or she comes. Strippers don't get it. Strippers never get to family events, stripping down. Strippers don't turn down event, backyard barbeque. Strippers in there, going to plays and watch your baby if it ain't on strip night, stripper going still being the funnel with the outfit on that damn this stage? Ready? Now what am I supposed to do? I think I should just come clean and tell my wife what happened. What do you think? Son? Let me explain something to you. Don't you take this information because I got to talk to him, like keep myself. Son. Don't you take this information in your house that is not in your house. You don't take bad news into the house. That's nothing good can come of this conversation. It's all bad. Your neighbor not Now. You can't ever look over there. You came back your car out and pointed in that direction. You can't wave your kids, can't play with her kids nothing. A matter of fact, you must develop a hate for her because your wife is gonna hate her if you go in here and tell her this. Now, what strippers don't do is tell married women they strippers exactly. She's a dance instructor. She's gonna be cool. She know always you. Now, as long as you don't go back down to that true a club you cool. Do not go in here and tell your wife this ignorant asked information like Shirley has suggested, the dumbest damn thing you can do. He's not gonna be able to hold in. His wife is gonna find out anyway how because he's sweating like bullets. Just meet just seeing her and just sat and you don't think his wife is say, baby, why are you sweating because I'm hot in the winter. What she can't find out is that this woman been sliding him down his shirt and grinding on him and doing bounced lap dances. Bouncing. It's time to go, But can we just carry this on? I have a few more questions for you, because I mean, we're doing this from a male female perspective, and the female perspective don't count here. Oh I think it does. She's his wife to do it from a players yes, come on, married man. Yes, all right, we'll be back with part three of today's Strawberry Letter. My sex sexy neighbor is stressing me out. Right after this, you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Okay, Steve, uh listen. So why do you why? I mean, he has to be honest. At some point we're talking about today's Strawberry Letter. The subject is my sexy neighbor is stressing me out? A married man wrote, and he and his wife just purchased a new home in a new community. He and his boys went out to celebrate. They went to a strip club. The husband got very, very very drunk. Uh. He bought a private room at the strip club with one stripper in particular, who did all sorts of freaky things to him, he said, And um, when he sobered up, he realized that he was very disappointed with himself, and he swore to his boys that he would never go to another strip club. Well, um, fast forward to two weeks ago when um, a new neighbor moved in next to him, and who would think that it would be the stripper, but it was. It was the same stripper that was doing all these freaky things to him in the club. So he and his wife went over to introduce themselves to the stripper, but he couldn't even say anything because he was so nervous and sweating and and all of this. So so I think, you know, I don't think he's gonna be able to hold it. I just don't. I think he's going to give himself away at some point. So I'm saying he may as well come clean with his wife and maybe not tell her all the details, but tell her something. And so, so, Steve, you disagree with that, We tell what could you possibly say that would be? Okay? Baby? Yeah, And he talked to you, Okay, honey, let's talk when we first moved in here, my boys took me out. Yeah, oh my god. Yeah, you guys went out to celebrate. H we went to a strip club. Oh you did?

He and his boys were His boys were happy for him, so they all went out to a strip club. He got drunk, very drunk, ended up buying a private room in the strip club with this one particular stripper who did all kinds of freaky things to him. He sobered up and realized that he was mad at himself, and he told his boys he would never get that drunk again. Fast forward two weeks ago. I told you it's a new community. So a new neighbor moved in right next door to them, and it turns out it's the stripper who was at the club doing all kinds of freaky things to him. Okay, anyway, so he and his wife went over to introduce themselves to the new stripper, I mean to the new neighbor who told his wife she was a dance instructor.

All of us are convinced that to bring bad news into your house is the dumbest mistake you can make. Well, when she found out, well, when she found out, we'll deal with it. And you all just don't want to deal with the questions and all of that that you think is going to happen. And I say that he has to tell her because the wife exchanged phone numbers with her, That's why. Ain't nobody tell her to do that? But it's done though, and they're gonna have and they're gonna have a housewarming party that she's going to invite the stripper neighbor too, So what okay? Dealing with you don't know that the stripper already smirked at him when they were leaving. The wife don't see that. She's gonna, Yeah, she's gonna see something.

Build build a gate right there, walk back and forth? Why are we missing out on this? Y'all? Y'all amazed me. When a blessing comes, you don't see it. You turn all the way, you run this go towards it.

Now we're coming back with Steve's closing remarks at forty nine after the hour. You're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show all right, Steve, last break of the day. Uh. Here we are with just one more thing and you're closing remarks. What you have for us today, sir? All right? Uh to date, I want to share something inspirational to all of you again. Uh. It's I want you all to understand something. It's not that I know everything, because I don't, but I have been through quite a bit. My life has and or a walking testimonial if I'm allowed to say that, I am a walking testimony of the power of prayer, what prayer can do to change a person. I am a walking testament of what grace and mercy is because God has forgiven me thousands of times. He has poured into my life above and beyond anything that I ever really imagined i'd have. You know, it amazes me when people say always knew I'd be here. I can't say that, because how can I say I always knew I'd be here when I didn't even know here existing. I had imagined some things, but I am beyond what I was capable of imagining back as a child. What how would I know any of this? And so what I want to talk to you all about it's a couple of things that it takes to become successful. And if you're willing to do a couple of things, you can be successful. One of the things is first things First, the Bible says a man without a dream or visions your perish. So first thing, you gotta want something. You gotta have some dreams. But after you have these dreams, you have to convert the dream into goals. The only way to convert a dream into a goal is to start planning how to make the dream come true and then start taking the necessary steps towards the goal, which can still be your dream. Now here's a cool thing about taking that step in the right direction towards your dreams. Your dreams can change, which means the goal will change and your dream will change along the way, because you're going to get exposed and see some things that you didn't even know existed before, and you'll add that to the vision board, and then and then and then and then you'll make that a new goal. It's just gonna be a lot of that. And so what you have to do is you have to keep on pushing. You have to keep pressing forward because all of that is going to change, Trust me, it will. So you gotta convert the dreams into goals. That's simply making those dreams have a plan of action. The next thing you're gonna have to do is you're going to have to be willing to give up some free time. You got to get rid of free time. Time is something you can never get back, and free time often is wasted time. I'm not saying you can't have no free time, because everybody needs some free time, but you gotta limit the free time until you get to where you're going. See when you see a person who's wealthy taking some time off, they've accumulated some stuff where they can take some time off. But if you check to check, you ain't got that. You don't have that. See, wealthy people accumulate time and wealth, so they have a reserve. So when they out of work for five eight weeks, they still got income coming. They still got money being made. But for those of you that's on the hustle and the grind, you've got to cut into some of that free time. Take some of that free time and turn it into productive time. See is p T time? See FMT is free time, but PT it's productive time. And you've got to swap those two out so you can take advantage of your times in the date. People ask me all the time, man, how you do all that that you be doing? I got the same twenty four everybody else got. I've just decided to remove some of the free time and replace it with productive time. And then here's the deal. I spend all my time building my dreams, so when I get some time, I can live my dreams. Do you understand me? That's the exchange that you have to be willing to make. Y'all, success is not gonna walk up to the door and just present itself in the basket, bring the dog bail and walk off. And you open it up and there is the mailman. Don't drop it off. It's a grind and a hustle. I say it all the time. The dream is absolutely free. The hustle is so separately. I'm on the hustle man. I invite you to get on the hustle, and folks, you can do it. You can do it, man, if you, if you, if you swap out some of these free time for productive time. If you take all this stuff you dream, nothing comes to a dream about some more dreams. Eventually you gotta swap those dreams out and replace the dreams with goals. If you're dreaming of a big house, you gotta make the goal in a big house. If you're dreaming of owning a business one day, you gotta make that owning a business a goal. It's gotta be a necessity. You gotta want to be successful like you want nothing else. You gotta want it. You gotta break it, you breathe it, you gotta dream, dream dreaming, you gotta live, and you gotta eat it. You gotta taste it, you gotta want it. You gotta get funky to get it. You got to get funky to get it. Man, you got to have a lot of dog in you. So if you want to be successful, convert those dreams into goals. Keep on dreaming and just keep converting them into more goals. Take some of that free time, get rid of it and turn it into productive time. You can change the course of your life.
