Y'all know what time to y'all don't know y'all bag all suit looking back to back down, giving them mo like theming buck bus things and it's tub y'all to be true. Good to the hut. Yeah, listening to me together for Stu Barn quick to money. Why don't you joy? Yeah, wellby joining me, Honey said do you turn go? You gotta turn to turn the time, Hobby got to turn out to turn the water the water go. Come come on your face at uh huh, I sure will a good barted everybody you are listening to the voice, come on dig me now one and only Steve Harvey, Oh yeah, man, got a radio show. Do you understand that I'm telling you God been big in my life. I'm not gonna kid you. I'm telling you in here do the same thing for you. God. God is a gentleman. You know. I wanna I want to point that out to you. God is an absolute gentleman. He will not come in unless he's invited. He don't just barge into your life. He gives us the power of choice. You know, if you say you got it, I don't need you. He lets you have it. If you say I need you come see about me? He right there. It's just a real simple thing, man. So always say to people this, if you've gotten yourself into something, and please know I have. I man see that. That's why I'm so adamant about it, because I've gotten myself in some circumstances and positions in my life. And boy, let me tell you something. I've had some low moments. Man, I've had some moments where I did not know what to do. I didn't know what was next. I didn't know how to go about it. I didn't have no more ideas. I was stuck. I thought a couple of times, well, I might not make it past this one. But then if I don't make it past it, what's gonna happen? And then I held on to this little thing that my mother kept talking to me about. She said sometimes so when you ain't got nothing else in you, just hope, she said, just hope it will be all right, you know. And what I've learned in my life is that hope it's the beginning of faith. Hope's just is there a possibility out there for me? I sure hope something happened. See hope, hope it's okay. Man, because, like I said, for me, the way I've lived my life, hope was the beginning of faith. It was just the idea. It's just the thought that something could change from me, that something could be a little bit different from me, that maybe, man, just maybe for some reason, I could be saved, I could be rescued, things could turn around, it could head in the other direction. Maybe I could quit messing up. Maybe somebody will forgive me, Maybe somebody will will just say all right. I don't know, but I can't count the times I've been in that position. But then once I hope a little bit, and then I remember also my mother, because she was a Sunday school teacher, she taught me the most valuable lesson I've ever learned in my life. Nothing has been greater in my life than my faith. She taught me to pray. Mommy used to say, when you get real dog for your son, pray changes things. She said, When you seem like you lost and you can't find your way, stop and pray, she said, because pray changes things. You know, when you get a point in your life when you've done all you can do and you can't do no more, and you just don't know what to do next. She said, stop suh, pray and combine that prayer with that hope that you got, she said, because that hope is the beginning of faith. She said. If you pray just hoping, she's saying that God come through for you. That will give you confidence that he can do it again. And then after a while you quit hoping. She's saying, you start believing. She said. That's when you're on to something. If you can turn that hope into belief, that hope into faith, the ability to believe something that you can't see. But the key though the faith is you're believing in something that you can't see. See hoping a little bit different from me, not I'm pretty sure. Like I say oftentimes to tell a lot of people who can explain this thing a lot better than I can to you. But just from my side of it, being as real as I can be, rich see, hope helps. Man. If you ain't strong enough to have faith, have hope, and then if you pray with some hope and God answers your prayer, then that hope gains a little confidence, and after a while that confidence becomes faith. Now ain't just hoping, but I'm believing. I'm believing it's something that I cannot see. Faith has been the key to my entire existence, even when I didn't have any It was faith, as I look back on it, that has gotten me here. And not just faith, but my faith. See, you will only get to where you're going in your life based on your faith. See. A lot of people get the word faith confused, like what's your faith? Uh? And then they started going down this whole list of all these different religions out here. But really an essence, man, when I talk to people about faith, I'm talking to you about your your belief. How much do you believe in the unseen? How much do you believe in the things you can't see? How much do you believe in the impossible? How much do you believe? See? Because faith is the belief in things that you cannot see. Faith is the core of all that is happening to me today. It is the faith that I have in my relationship with God that enables me to just oftentimes, if I stay on the right course and believe a certain way and act a certain way, his blessings just poor. They just come, and it comes in a lot of little ways. Too. I've started to notice. See it ain't just a lot of people think blessings is money. Now, man, that ain't it. It's coverage. It's every time my plane lands safe. It's every time they predict bad weather and not get up in the sky and it don't be no bad weather. You know, this is this is favor. These are blessings that get poured out to me. Somebody called me and offer me something, not money, but an opportunity, you know, something somebody say, hey, man, I don't know, but I sent this to you. I thought you might be interested in it. Somebody has sent me a scripture, or somebody send me something that's favor, and it always comes at a time when I need it the most. That's favor. That's pouring out blessings. Now I'm also the recipient of a lot of other blessings too. You know, I've been blessed with health. That's amazing blessing. Man. I've been blessed with a spirit of not quitting. I've been blessed with the ability to shoulder huge amounts of responsibility. See, blessings come a lot of ways. But once you tie into God, once you tie in and you start doing the best you can do, and you start asking for him to make you a better person, to help shape and mold you into the kind of man or person that he wants you to be. You be amazed where God can do with you. Man, if you just invite me in and allow him to be a part of your life. I mean, what you got to lose out there? Come on, if you're sitting in the cell this morning, why why would you not change? I watched these shows about me and locked up all the time. Who waiting? They getting their farties and they decide, Man, I'm tired of this. I've lived most of my life behind these bars. When I get out this time, man, I'm gonna get it right. Why you gotta wait till your farty? I mean, when you're farty, it's cool, get yourself together whenever it happened. But man, do you know that you were not created to live behind bars? God didn't make you that way. But if you've gotten yourself into that position, though, see now you gotta do the best you can. But they don't need to look at it God being mad at it, we'd have made all of our decisions, got us to where we at today. You have a chance to turn your life around with a relationship with God. What you're waiting on? Are you gonna just keep doing it like that? Huh? Really? Come on, man, why would you do that to yourself? Why would you not allow God to be a part of your life so you can get the way he wants you to be. God got some big plans for you. If he didn't, you wouldn't keep waking up to show ladies and gentlemen, boards and girls, people from all around the world. Man, have your attention please? You know why I need it because you're listening right now to the baddest morning showing the land and ocean. Ain't nothing been underwater? Out of State Championship team.

Wednesday marked the fourth anniversary of the police killing of Michael Brown at the hands of a now former Ferguson cop for some Missouri cop named Darren Wilson, but now Charlottesville, Virginia is racing for Sunday's first anniversary of last summer's violent White Nationals rallied. A man purposely rammed his car into a group of Andy Races protesters, injuring several of them but killing a young lady named Heather Higher Hires mother, Susan Brow has since set up a foundation in her name and tells National Public Radio that she's on a mission. The black community and the people of color and Charlottesville have been battling this for many years. But a white girl dies and suddenly everybody goes, oh my god, we've got a problem. Part of me wishes it was all just a bad dream, that the country wasn't this divided, That that black lives really have been treated as if they matter, that um, Heather was here. Downtown Charlesville block where her daughter was killed has been renamed Heather Higher Way. Meanwhile, the white races to descended on Virginia last year say they're going to be in Washington, d C. On Sunday for another Unite the Right rally.

A young woman pulled over at a traffic stop in a place called Bluffed in South Carolina last Saturday, was found to be legally drunk, slurring her words, and in possession of marijuana and speeding. But she told the police officer who pulled her over that she didn't belong in jail because are you ready, she says, I'm a very clean, thoroughbred white girl. Okay. The officer was also white, but he arrested her. According to new estimates, a lot more people died in Puerto Rico as a result of her came Maria than previously thought. Authorities say that one thousand four hund and twenty seven people died last September as a result of the storm. Now that's many more than the initial announced the death toll of sixty four. Querto Ricanficially, sixty four people lost their lives directly from the storm, but they say many more. That larger number died as a result of the flooding, the loss of power, and building collapses.

Do you remember the minister that officiated your actual wedding ceremony? Yeah? Uh reverend? Right, Okay, I got the right person. I wanted to make sure I had the right person, Brian. So I'm I'm sorry if if it seemed a little weird to you. Here's here's what's going on. We've just come up with a new discovery a lot of information that Reverend none of his credentials are true. Everything is false. He's not a minister at all, he never was a minister, and every single wedding ceremony that he officiated is basically null and void. So, and I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you and Alphea, even though you think you've been married for nine years, you guys are not married. No, no, no, no, not that you gotta have the wrong person, because man, that then we got we got married by nine years ago. And what I'm telling you is he he never was ordained. He's never been an ordained minister. He's not a minister at all. So when he performed this ceremony, your wedding ceremony, he had no right to be doing that. You guys are not are not married. You know, you guys have been living in sin for nine years. Hold on, hold, hold on that. Let me tell you something. I ain't been living No man and my wife. We have been married for nine years. And that man he's a preacher. I'm telling he's a preacher. I heard him preach land Sunday, Sir. As of today, he is. He has no right to be in anybody's pulpit. He has no right to be officiating, whether it's weddings or funerals, no matter what it is, Christine for children. He's not allowed to do that. And we have officially stopped him from doing anything serving under as being a pastor or a minister. We have stopped that. But what I want you to know is that you have been living in sin and you don't you that. We want to try and get you guys married as soon as possible, so you're not living in sin. Oh no, doc, I ain't been living in no sin. I have been married for nine years. This woman ship been taking care of me and my kids for the past Wait. Wait a minute, wait a minute. You guys. Have you guys have children? Yeah? Yeah, we have too, two kids, two beautiful kids. Okay, then those kids are bastards, statard. On. Let me tell you something. My kids ain't no bastard. What about your kids? Your kids in basthoods no, sir, my kids, my kids were born in wedlock. Your kids have been born out. I'm telling you that man did my service, and he is a preacher. He's a man after God's own heart himself. He hasn't done everything that he come for me in my family. He is a preacher. So I don't. I know it's hard for you to to to swallow the truth, but I want you to know, and I need you to be able to tell Alfia that you guys are not married and not as of right now. No, no, okay, so I at a herd of hunt now back in the olden days, but before all these all these colleges and stuff came came about. You telling me that their men making old days, that they weren't no preachers, that they weren't meant men after the clough? Is that what you're saying to me? H? What what are you? What are you? What are you? What are you getting at? Sir? What I'm trying to say is back in the older days, making the twitters and thirties, they didn't have all these colleges and all these degrees and stuff like these new preachers got these days. That man, now he was from back then, and God called them and that's what they went on too. And all them people that they married back then, they did the same thing to day. You don't need to know what degree to say that that you're a preacher. You don't need no lights to say you're a preacher. Men, my wife would been married for nine years. My kids have been born in wedlocks. We were married, we were married my friends and family Day was on there, sir. The bottom line is that that you have been living in sin because you have not been married with your wife for the last nine years. And your kids, I hate to say it, your kids are bastards now O.

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? Al Right? Well, um, congratulations on your new house. How about that? And this? Yeah? Yeah, right, this is this is somewhat of a whole mess you've gotten yourself into. I mean, what are the odds that's 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 exchange 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 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 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 your turn? What? Hey, man, I don't know this dude name bro 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 Steven Sheirley.

Let me handle this man, go ahead, going ahead, Joe stupid and had open your mouth. Boy my sexy neighbor stressing me up. You're going into the truth matters to who the truth that already happened. It doesn't matter. It's time up for the truth. Now it begins to cover up. You ain't got tavern no more truth. Truth is your friends want to celebrate your new ownership. Your boys took you out for drinks. Now, instead of stopping it just drinks, you ended up going to a strip club. Now you ain't just drinking. Now you're very drunk. First of all, you got to quit drinking. Listen to me, that's what my brother told me. Pad Servis 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 something, you ain't Jesus rules for drinking. Once you feel anything, you should stop off. 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 the strip club I got, which are two things I've not done since I got married. The strippers 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, but its low. I'm mercy, that's the best worst move you can make. I'll tell y'all of it when we come back. But you ain't been going to tell her damn thing. You don't even like strip clubs. Hell no, all right. We'll have part two of Steve's response coming up at twenty three after the hour. You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, Steve, come on with part two of your response to today's Rubberry letter. My sexy neighbor is stressing me out. This man boys took him on congratulations for buying a new home. Yeah, they go out drinking. They ended up in a strip club where you continue to drink your answers dro y'all mess around and go to the strip club. Paid for your own private v I P area in the club. That's the best worst thing you can do. What goes on in there? Nothing I'll tell you no, no, no no, she won't know. And then when I tell you, do you see why I can't go tell her? Let me get we're going in there. So everybody had a day that catered to us all night. My dancer, the one that was on him, did all hounds of freaking stuff to me. Sure when he say freaking stuff to me, he ain't lying. We did everything except go all the way. Do you understand me? I know what he did. Rubbed it, bouncing, squeeze, biting, 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 the boys house and get a clean ship, because that should triflet. She's been sliding all up and down on it. He got glit on it. Yeah, you gotta get the shirts off then pass. You have to burn them. Them is in the trash? Can something dim 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. Soon 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 hem No, I could tell them. She recognized me too, but she played it cool. My wife introduced us because I couldn't say much. He was frozen. You were stuck the stripper told my wife she's a single mom and her child's father bought her the house. Stripper 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. But y'all eating in the damn Mica. All I hear is nuts? She no, I don't go good with this. Yeah, I could tell she introduced me. She recognized me too. She played it off. I couldn't say nothing. She said she is a single mom and her child father bought her the house. She told my wife that she works as a dance instructor. What she does, she dances, and she is struck men to put money in her phone. She is truly a dance instruct And then she and my wife exchange number. Now you're sitting there gonna what is huh? 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 house. Woman, Oh she coming, Oh, the stripper coming. Because strippers don't get invited the house loom or she comes. Strippers don't get it. Normal strippers never get to family events, stripping dog strippers don't turn down backyard bobecue. Strippers in there going to plays and watch your baby if it ain't on strip night, stripper going still be at the funel with the outfit on that damn this stage. He's 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 my son, 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. 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 trippers don't do is tail married women. They stripples exactly. She's a dance instructor, She's gonna be cool. She know always you as long as you don't go back down to this strip 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 it. His wife is gonna find out anyway, how because he's sweating like bullets. Just meet just seeing her and just let us seat, And you don't think his wife 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 a female perspect perspective don't count here, Oh I think it does. She's his wife. I'm gonna do it from a player perspective. 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 sure? Where could you possibly say that would be? Okay? A b 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.

Cut this woman yard every windsday, say that's guilt for show. Bring it up. It's just a lie. Ain't nobody got to know? Don't say nothing. Well, if he can't play at all, he does, we can't. What's the best way? Set the best way? He just said, he's not listening. I understand how women are bad. Yeah, because over there your kids cannot go over there because the first day kid, I know your daddy when you tell your kid he come home with that? And what if the stripper says something, then you really and saying none of you go with every winds into a neighborhood, the family people that didn't want to tell the women she is stripped, she's a dance instruct Well, it depends how the husband is at I don't think she's gonna say anything. I just feel like it's the husband's job to give his wife a heads up about not being buddy chums with old girl had lap dances with. If she is crazy enough to say something, you have already told your wife. So you want, let's go Part five. This was the longest Strawberry letter ever. You're listening to the Steve, this is the strawberry letter that keeps on giving. Man, it really is. Subject. My sexy neighbor is stressing me out right there because you don't know how to handle the truth. You're going to get busted. He can't handle it. That's all. That's it, all right, So a married man, I feel like, yeah, this is what this trapped in the closet. Part five, Mary Man wrote us, Uh, he and his wife just purchased a new house in a new community. 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, and he was all nervous and he just doesn't know what to do. I said, before anything goes any further out of hand, tell his wife something. Steve says, absolutely no. Part five. Here we go. Now we're at the part where the lady is upset talking to her husband. And now I'm gonna show you how to get out of this. You over there talking to a stripper that you know that you knew, you knew when you went over there. I'm standing on the exchange. Yeah, baby, I don't know her. You don't know at all, not at all. That she didn't told you she met me at the strip club. I don't remember her at all. We was at the strip club, but I don't know her. Just friends, just friends. No, no, no, we ain't friends. I don't know her. You didn't recognize it when you went over there. It's dog in there, it's dog and stripping. But you remember the five d remember that, huh? I remember the five hundred because you asked me about how much of day spending were now money. The fellas treated me because they was celebrating me getting the household over here. None of your money a dollar mine, I still got all mine in the wallet. I left here with two fit to go.

We will be back with more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show right after this. You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, here we go. We are back. We cannot seem to get off this letter. We thought it was over, but here we are again. Podcast. We are very decisively divided between off the air, y'all. The debate is raging every woman. Monica Shelly Holla insists that it is best that this man tell her the truth so she don't get blindsided. 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 what. Ain't nobody tell her to do that? It's done, 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 she dealing with? You don't know that the stripper already smirked at him when they were leaving. Wife, that she's gonna she's yeah, she's gonna see something. Why are we missing the blessing that you got a big, beautiful a move next door? Why are we aboiding this? Why are we not embracing it? Why don't we the fence that divides our back y'alls? Bill build a gate right there to 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, go towards it. When they switched them numbers, go over there at midnight, listen. She can't find out nothing by me and your district clue. But cool, all right, I'm not listening. I'm gonna come back here on Wednesdays. Tighten up everything around here, everything you need him. All right, I'm gonna put the little gate over here on this fence. We we gotta go in and out this gate. That's how we're gonna work this night. But I don't want nothing else going on. You can't be running round the street with her. You're a dead man. Yeah, you must think your wife is just just stupid, he said, twelve o'clock at night, And when your wife asked you what the gate is, she's not going to see that gate that's at Hadaway Gate. That gate I'm gonna put up there lasers. What is it invisible? It ain't no handle on. It's just it's not like ticket. So so you cutting gate was y'all it's too Yeah, then she's gonna really now, yeah I can. I'm gonna cut more than one name, but I guess I need to do that. You're gonna end up cutting that whole block for free. You're awfully quiet right now, nothing, he says, right now. We just agree to disagree. Yeah, we agree to disagree show. Yeah. Yeah, we all have different opinions, which is what the audience has. Yeah. Absolutely, On social media, you know, all the guys are gonna say, don't tell. All the women are gonna say tell that's pretty much. Yeah, don't say nothing, don't open your mouth, cut your tongue at That's what I do. All right, We will be back, No, not with part seven. I think we're I think we're done. Now we're coming back with Steve's closing remarks at forty nine after the hour. You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show, Last break of the day. We've had a great morning today. Yes, yes, we did. We have fun today. Steve. It's time for you now to take us home with your closing remarks. What you got for us today, Steve, want to get us about sharing. Oh, the things that I've learned along the way. One of the things I think is very important that we should talk about. We should talk about blame and excuses. Um, lame and excuses. I'm telling you, man, they serve no purpose. Excuses first of all, are only good for the person that's providing them. It does nothing for the person who receives it. Have you ever had somebody tell you a reason why they do didn't do something and you were counting on them to get it done and they gave you an excuse as to wife. Okay, here's somebody is supposed to pick you up in the car pool for work. Now you didn't gave your car to your spouse so they could go do what they want to do. Now you're sitting there waiting on the car pool to come pick you up. They don't pick you up. Now they're late. Man, I had a hard time getting up this morning. Man, I'm glad, but i'm here though. Whoa, man, that's an excuse. What do you mean you're late? You had a hard time getting up. I'm sitting up here waiting on you to pick me up, and you come forty five minutes later. Now I'm late for work. See that excuse? That does okay for I was sick this morning. I didn't fill up to it. Excuse works wonderful for you, but the person receiving the excuse gets nothing. You've got to remove excuses from your vocabulary and your walk in life. See. I don't really accept excuses from anybody in my camp. If you're an employee, you work for me. I don't do excuses because I don't give none. Today. For example, I'm not feeling real well. You know, my sionististant kicked in. I've had a troublesome night last night. I'm not feeling well. But guess what, I came to work on the radio today and I'll do these two shows I got to do today because I NBC. I heart. They don't care up about my excuses. People who are looking for me to wake him up in the morning, give him a laugh, or give them a thought starter. They're not looking for my excuses. They're just looking for the results. Excuses don't do me no good. Now that's some days, all of so not up to part. We're not one, but I'm not. I don't care about the excuses. I don't accept excuses because I don't give excuses. The other thing I removed from my life is blame. And once you blame another person, man, this is what happened with blame, blaming excuses. Listen to me. Finger pointing does nothing because you've heard old saying. Every time you point your finger the person, you notice that three of them pointing back at you. Once you're in the blame business and the excuse business, you forfeit your chance for growth. I give you an example. If you're always talking about is somebody else's fault and you're always have an excuse why something didn't get done or accomplished. Guess what now, you can't grow, You can't grow, you can't fix it because the reason why it didn't happen, or the reason why you didn't accomplish it is because you blame someone else and you have an excuse. Once you start accepting blame and excuses, you forfeit your chance for growth. You kill any chance for change. Sometimes all you have to do as a person is searched within yourself and find out what it is about you that you could change that could start producing a better results. But if you always blaming somebody else and providing it and accepting excuses from yourself and other people, guess what you've done. You've killed your chance for change. Sometimes you could be doing a whole lot better in life if you would just change, If you would search yourself and change something about you, you would be doing so much better. If you just search yourself, stop allowing excuses to be a part of your makeup, and stop allowing blame to be a part of it, and you would discover a lot of this is just you. It could be you another thing to blame an excuse it does it allows you to fail favorably. You know, man, you can just get all right with failing. You can fail favorably because it ain't my fault and I didn't do it because it was cold outside. So till you allow yourself to fail favorably, that's an ugly spot to be in. But blaming excuses allows you to fail favorably, Like, it's okay to fail because it ain't my fault because I have an excuse. And if they fault, blame and excuses man is a very very dangerous thing out there. Also, blaming excuses promotes a climate of failure. It just premiates man throughout your life. And next thing, you know, you ain't accomplishing nothing because if blaming blame and excuses a part of your makeup, you now have promoted a climate for elier. It's okay, it's okay because I have a reason why why you didn't finish school, because because it was too cold to go. Why you didn't finish school because that test was too hard. I didn't study them two pages, I thought they said the first chapter. She questions us on the first three chapters. I didn't hear that that's the only reason I failed. And you get all right with it. When you're no longer the reason why something happens, You no longer have control over what happens. Let me say that to you one more time. When you're no longer the reason why something happens, you ain't. You ain't you're you ain't gonna take responsibility. You're not the reason.
