Y'all know what time to y'all don't know y'all have a suit looking back to back down, giving them more like the million buck things in it coub me true good it Steve har listening to the movie together for Steve, Please, I don't join join me to be doing me out of you turning. You gotta turn to turn them out. Turn you haven't got to turn them out. Then turn the water the water go. Come come on your uh huh, I shall well, good morning everybody. You'll listening to the voice, come on dig me now, One and only Steve Arvey got a radio show, man, old Man. Old Man symbolizes just one thing to me. Man, It's just a constant remind of exactly how good God has been to me over the years. And I'm thank him for it too, because I realize every day that I wake up that I would be nothing without him. That everything I am that's any good in me, I owe to him. Now. Have I made some mistakes along the way, yep, bunches, bunches and bunches. And will I continue to make mistakes along the way yep? Not as many, hopefully as I have in the past, because a lot of stuff I know better now, but you're still going to make mistakes now, you know. Hopefully I've limited the amount of intentional errors in my life. I've wiped quite a few of those out. But from time to time, because we're human, we're going to make a mistake every now and then. The trick, what it is, y'all's not to let the devil deceive you into thinking that once you make that mistake, that that's it. You can't do it. You're falling off the wagon. You can't reboard it. That's the biggest trick that he uses. He makes you think that if you keep stumbling, that you can't run the race. It kind of reminds me of a marathon runner. From time to time I watch him on TV, and you'll see some people who finish the race, you know, in a in a nice pace. You see people finish the race sprinting towards the finished line. But every now and then you'll watch a marathon and you'll see a runner and the runner is in really, really bad shape. The key is they finish the race. See, you don't get disqualified in the marathon because you stumble, You don't. They don't. They don't take your opportunity to finish the race because you keep falling. That's not the key. The key is finishing. And a lot of times what the devil does is he makes you think that because you keep stumbling, because you're swaying from side to side, that you know you out the race. Well, that's not the case. And see and then this thing called life, let me help you understand something. Everybody falls. Nobody sprints to the tape in this one. Nobody just runs free and clear as some people running faster than you and all like this. And some people gonna get to the end before you let them go ahead. And when the end come, the dcome. I ain't in the rush to get to the end. But in this race, though, when you're stumbling and you're falling, it's a part of it. No one gets through this race without stumbling and falling, swaying from side to side. So don't let the enemy deceive you into thinking that it's over. I try to be encouraging to people because I don't want people to get stuck on this thing, you know. And my walk is very different from a lot of people's walks. And then I know a lot of people who walking in faith the way I'm walking in faith. But my thing in the morning is just to remind those that is not a perfect walk man, that it's not something that's set up where you're gonna be skipping through life scot free without any pitfalls. You know, I keep saying it over and over and over again because, like I said, when I was in DC, my boy Hondo said this to me, and it just kind of stuck with me that the road to construct, the road to successes always under instruction. You have to figure and count on the setbacks and the pitfalls. But it's those people that that that that fight through will be the victors in the end. You cannot give up, man, Stop going somewhere sitting down every time something goes down. It's going to go down. It's a part of it. It's going to happen. It's going to occur that are going to be setbacks. If you go and sit down every time there's a setback, that's not how this works. It is designed that way. If success were easy, everybody would be successful. But success is just reserved for those who are willing to fight through, who refuse to settle for mediocrity, who wants something more now don't get me wrong. Success is defined by each individual. So what I may consider to be successful, you may not consider that. You know what Bill Gates considers successful. I might not consider what Michael Jordan considers successful. I might not consider what you consider successful. Your boss might not consider. You have to define what that is for yourself. It may not be monetary at all. You know, your level of success could be tied up in community service. It could be tied up in family. It could be tied up into church. Your level of success could be tied up into boys clubs. It could be any number of things. Whatever your level of success is, you have to determine what that is you and the best way to determine that is to get in touch with your maker, who created you, to find out what your mission and your purpose is so he can put you on track. I just had this conversation with my son, and we were talking about getting on the path that God has set up for you. So many times we find ourselves fighting through life because of so much uncertainty, because we have no idea where we're headed. It's like one of my own sayings that I have at my mentoring camp for boys is is that a boy without a male role model is like an explorer without a map. See if you don't have a map laid out in front of you of where you're going when you wake up every day. That pretty much explains the feeling of confusion, the laxadaisical attitude, the lack of purpose, to not understanding your mission because you don't have not gotten in touch with your creator to find out exactly what your path in life is. What are you supposed to be doing the moment you can identify that it is the moment that you get started waking up with purpose, with the sense of direction. When you kill the sense of I don't know what's next or what to do. Now, there's going to be some confusing moments no matter what happened, it's going to be some uncertainty, but at least you'll know where you're going. So if you're tied a waking up feeling loss, abandon confused, don't know what to do, don't know what you're supposed to be doing, refer back to your makeup. Because when he created you, he had a plan for you. When he created you, he had a path for you. Now we've made some decisions to get off of both of those, the mission and the path. But God can get you right back on track. Do that today, asking what you're supposed to be doing, and listen. God has all the answers if you form the relationship. Okay, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, people from all around the world. You are listening to the baddest morning show in the land. This is a Steve Harvey Morning Show, Yale.

Okay, I'm going to tell you what this is all about. It says breaking out some tears may help you land your next job during a job interview, you definitely want them to remember you, and it turns out a few tears just might do the trick. While you may think that crying during the interview process would blow your chances of getting a job, there are some people who say it actually works wonders. So okay, well let's go here. Okay, we're in a job interview and Carla are interviewing me, and so let's go and let's start in. Let's start interview again. Well, good morning, mister Harvey, how are you today? Fine? How are your Harvey? Mister Strawberry, mister Miles, thank you for having me such an opportunity. All right, so mister Harvy, let's get start. I wanted to ask you what exactly, um, what makes you qualify for this job. Well, having had several jobs before that gave me the experience of the exact thing that you folks are looking for. This pretty much made me qualify. And you know, everybody that I've ever worked with have always said I was really just overqualified. So here, um, let me ask you something, mister Harvey. Why did you leave your last job? Oh? God, what difficult that you bought this up? Ye? Oh god, do you need am I was. I was there for sixteen years and no, really, you know, they just came in and they just closed it. I mean it's they just shut it, shut the doors. Well, let me I was in the parking lot when it had happened. I was standing there. Jane Jane put them crying, mister Harvey. No, no, I'm not, I'm not. It was just such amicas Jane to talking about interview. It's happy. Let me jump in here, okay, just big, okay. Before we were all I wanted to ask you, mister Harvey. You know, a job like this, you're gonna be working with a lot of people. You're gonna be doing a lot of interacting. Uh, you know, how do you do you have the skill set to actually interact with other people. Yeah, exuse me. Yeah, I'm interacted, quam. Sorry, doesn't take much, we see. Yeah, I interact with people from time to time. You just talking about it sort of gets me. No, no, oh no, I'm fun fun with other people. Um, mister Harvey, this is a sales position we're um looking to hire you for, and we just want to make sure that you're the right person. As Thomas mentioned earlier, you have the right qualifications for this position. You have to interact with people, you have to sell our product, and you know people buy you first before they even buy the products. So I just want to make sure that that, um, you know, this little crying thing I hear, um, it's it's not really listen eight, I'm just I don't cry. I got a question for you, But I don't just cry. You know all this time sounds like you do. I'm out of work. I'm crying because I'm out of work. Yeah, there's no crying at work. I don't want I don't not hear yet. I can stop you cry. Two of you one work. What are your strengths. Let's talk about something positive. I can absoulutely pull it together. That's one of my strokes. I promise you, I cam, if you just hired me, just give me a job. You'll see. It's like instant. If you just say you're hired, you begin to show you city g the eighteenth interview. This is the third level. This, this is supposed to be it. I was told by your supervisor that it wouldn't we wouldn't even be here to cloaking. Now here I am, and we're still talking to a job. Well, this is That's why it's called a process, mister Harvey. Oh process, ye oh father, the interview process suffer. Oh Jesus, oh Jesus. Um, he'll stop. Please. Well, let's let's evaluate miss Shirley Strawberry Carlin. Do you think we have the right person for the job. Well, how about we let this person sell themselves in thirty seconds to us? Okay, yeah, sounds good. Yeah, mister Harvey, could you sell yourself for thirty seconds to us? Please? Old, you need a moment, you want to go out, let me know, okay, and you can start now and now. And I believe that I'm extremely qualified for this position due to the fact that I'm probably the most experienced candidate that you'll meet from time to time. I've also discovered that I have several traits that this company's lacking, and I can be a most fulfilling factor in developing the app loot direction of your firm and your company. I will be but an asset, and that is why I think I should have the job. Okay, all right, he said a mountain right, no tears. Okay, if you're asking me, I would say he's hired. All right.

Alight, all right, we'll be back with more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show right after. You're listening to the show. Now. This is according to Business Journal, If given the choice, forty one percent of people would actually rather have more paid vacation time than a paid raise. While we're always, yeah, we're always hearing about US employees not using a ball. They're paid vacation each year. It seems like a lot of folks really do want more time off. Do you think you'd rather have more vacation time or a paid race. Yeah. I'm kind of on the fence with this one because I don't take a lot of vacation, which is crazy. If you give me sick days, I'm taking them, every last one, every last one. I don't take a lot of vacation. I really don't. Never tell me. I don't hand them. It ain't an option from me. You got to tell me about a six days in vacation. Yeah. So if you don't say no, no, I'm on. Yeah, I guarantee I'm taking my sick days. No. I guess I would be I get a pay raise, I guess i'd be that that person. Yeah, instead of vacation days. Because I barely rarely take the ones that I have. I'm supposed to be a vacation right now? Am I a workaholic? Well? I think your business I want to allow you. I think I think you're I think you're bug buess borderline tips off into stupids. You can't send you and if your bushiness is overrunning you. Yeah, and it tips over into stupidity, because why your ass won't take your vacation. Supposed to be on vacation.

A few notes given to you about it, Yeah, just a couple of notes. I don't think it's anything that we can make sure it's okay. What kind of note. Well, it's been brought to my attention that some of the parents whose daughters are out there as well, there's gonna be there this summer. A little concern about her being on top of the pyramid that she's uh is getting a little heavy, should she uh wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait ho ho ho? You calling me about some some other parents and saying about how big my child is or how much my child? Way is that? What I wanted to let you know was we're gonna put it as a base. Oh no, you ain't gonna put no base. I don't already pay my money. And what you say? Your name is Chip? And um, how long have you you've been the director? Because I was just up there two weeks ago and they told me that she was gonna be the same position that she was last year, because that is what worked, that's the formation that worked.

Okay, all right, nephew, take us to the letter. Yes, hold on tight, we got it for you. Here it is the Strawberry Letter, subject you did? What where all right? Dear Stephen Shirley. I met the love of my life. This beautiful woman was so perfect I could not believe she was still single. Well after dating her for six months, I figured out exactly why she is not married. She has a bizarre, nasty habit. It all started to go downhill when I took her around my friends for the first time. We went to a house party and had a good time eating and drinking. The next day, my friend called me upset because someone had relieved themselves in his bathroom drawer. What to put it politely, It was not arn what he thought. Someone had had too much to drink and made a mistake. Two months later, my lady and I went to play cards had another friend's home. The next day, my buddy called me and was very upset because someone had relieved themselves in his son's closet. It's odd to me that it's happened twice, but I don't dwell on it. A week later, my lady and I went to my brother's house for a cookout. The next day same thing, my brother called me and said he had discovered a mess on the back seat of his suv. Now there have been three incidents and it's starting to get really weird. So I mentioned it to my girl. I told her that everywhere we had been, someone had left a surprise for the homeowner each time. Her response blew my mind. She shamefully admitted that it was her all three times. She said she can't help it. She likes to relieve herself in odd places when she goes out. She said she tried therapy for many years, but nothing has worked. I consulted a psychiatrist on my own and he said that the problem is very common and that I should stay with her and support her. I was going to marry this woman, but now I'm thinking that marriage would not be a good idea. What's your advice? Should I throw in the towel now or stay with her and help her through this? All? Right? My ample is going to be very short and very simple. Money. Run as fast as you can. This is not a good look. Run. Something medically is wrong with her, mentally is wrong with her. Therapy didn't help her. Uh. I don't think anything can be helped by this situation. This is crazy and nasty. Steve, Run, I say, run, Steve. Oh, this is what I specialize. And this is why I'm a proponent of who I go to school when you could do coming see, education will get in the way of what I'm about to say, school and and and proper technique and discussing what could have gone wrong in her childhood? How normal? This is a behavior? Clinically what this is called, well, there is no clinical name for this. Let's call this what it is. This is just yeah, yeah, come on board, come on? What is it again? They can't believe I said, just bleep it cat all this is and you can't call this listen to me. This is shout out. You just running around just ever you want to now when we come back, we want to give a different name to her. We don't call it sugar honey, iced tea. But what really is it? Right now? We all know you just rush, We'll be right back. You're listening Steve Morning Show. All right, Steve, let's recap today's strawberry letter. Uh and get to your impart. Let me explain so too.

All right, coming up, it's Steve Harvey and his closing remarks. You don't want to miss it. At forty nine after the hour you're listening to. All right, here we are Steve, last break of the day. It's been a good day. We love having you, Steve. So you can give us some closing remarks, some words today. Oftentimes my best closing remarks remarks that are reflective of something that I'm going through, have been through or experienced, and so today is going to be in that vein. I want to talk to you all today about faith. Faith, the purest definition of faith to me, this is to me now, I don't know how all the people view faith. I'm just talking about the purest definition of faith to me is simply this, faith is the belief in things that you cannot see. That's what faith really means to me. Faith is the belief in things that you cannot see. That categorizes faith for me, That exemplifies faith for me, that expresses faith for me, that somehow, over the years, I have managed to understand that faith is in the belief in things that you cannot see. So when situations beset me, when circumstances run up into me, when I find myself in something that I have no control over, that circumstance, just set thyself right in front of my door, and then all of a sudden, I get to fall calls, hey man, you all right, hey man, hanging now? Man. So sad to hear the news. You know, I had a slew it that this week because of some article that came out about the show Friends from Cleveland. And I appreciate it all. But I'm gonna tell you something that I'm drawing on. I'm drawing on this thing called faith. I'm drawing on some words that my mother told me when she was young. When I was young, my mama was a Sunday school teacher for forty years. She always taught me that I don't believe God brought me this far to leave me. There is no way that God got me to this place to leave me. See where faith comes in. I firmly believe that when one door closes, God has another one to open up. See. I never stand in the doorway that's closing in my face and keep knocking on that door. Y'all need to open this door back up. I'm not gonna stand there and try to force my way back in the door. I'm gonna take care of my business. Of course, faith with our works is dead. But I do not get crippled and crumbled over the predictions or the thoughts of somebody else. Somebody come to me and tell me what they're gonna do to me. How many times have you had somebody come to you and tell you what they was gonna do to you? How many times have you had a boss confront you and tell you what they was gonna do to you? And they say it with the full intent of shaking you up? And sometimes it work, don't it? You go home and you shake it. Let me offer you something stop shaking. Don't worry. Don't be dismayed that there is no way God brought you this far to leave. See, the people is talking about taking stuff from you. They didn't give it to you in the first place. What they don't know that your steps was ordered by God. What they don't know that God positioned you right where he wanted you to be at a particular time. They had no choice that to put you into position because God had ordered his soul. So when they come along and they start talking about taking you out of position, what you're worried about that fault? You don't think. You don't think that you have an option here. You don't think that the God you served that put you where he wanted you to be placed. You don't think he see all of this. I do. I think he sees me. I think he places me right where he wanted me to be placed. I think he has people saying things about me so I can hear it. I think he's allowing people to think that they're making decisions because they want to. I believe that they don't know that God is always working on my behalf, behind the scenes, always. Why Because I believe and I trusted him, That's why he always working on my behalf. That is no, I'm not an evil person. I'm not an unrighteous person. I'm really a good person. I'm flawed, but I'm a good person. I don't set out to hurt nobody. I ain't trying to step on nobody. So when somebody bring me some disparaging news about what they're gonna do to me, in the words of Bishop T. D. Jakes, you got to be careful how you handle me. Be very careful how you handle me. Because I happen to be a child of the Most High. What He's done for me in the past he or can continue to do for me in the future. I have no fear of what you claiming that you will do to me, because God didn't bring me this to leave me that I'm certain. Though. Faith is to belief in things that you cannot see. And even though I can't see what He's doing right now, I bet he's doing something. I'm excited about the future of what God got for me. Those are my closing yourself a good week. I am right, faith, baby dropped it? Did you drop the micro drop yourself? What did you do? All right?
