Yeah, listening to me toach other for Stu barn to listen money. Don't you join? Yeah? Yeah, well hobby joining me. Honey said you got to turn hur go, Yeah, you gotta turn to turn turn lovey got to turn out to turn water wan go. Come come on your face at it. Uh huh, I shall will good morning everybody. You are listening to the voice? Come on dig me now want and only Steve Harvey got a radio show? Uh huh, one more time, man, Steve Harvey got a radio show. Man, ain't God been good to me? Wow? But then again, ain't He been good to you too? Though? I mean really, man, think of all the blessings God has given you. Think of all the things He's done for you, things that you ask for, things that you didn't ask for, things that you were expecting. Being all about all of the unexpected blessings. Man, he just keeps coming with it, don't it. You know what? That's some good news today though, y'all. You know, in the in the in the face of all the world being the way it is, the the evilness that's out there, it just it just seems like that's all that's on the news sometimes. You know, we got we got news of parents not really starting up being parents. We got news stories children turning on their parents. You got, you got everything. The economy, You've got places you thought you should be beautiful places to go now they've got travel allerged. It's it's just it's all it's it's it's all over. But the good news is there's something that you can have in this relationship with God that gives you a way to deal with it all. And I'm not saying that it will it will protect you from every single thing out that is happening, because some things are going to happen to you. You're going to be in an accident from time to time. You're going to make a mistake and fall down from time to time. But man, wouldn't it be incredible to you for you if you understood that you had some insurance in all of this that no matter what happened to you, you know you will cover it. You know, look, insurance companies as good as they are, you know, like our friends that stay Farm or any other ensure his company. You know they do they do some amazing things. Insurance is a really, really good thing to happen in the event that something happens to you. You know, you may not want to pay the premium, but guess what in the event that something happens to you that insurance is absolutely critical. Well, but guess what they cover certain things. You could get life insurance, you can get auto insurance, you can get accident insurance, you can get health insurance. There is nothing that you can buy to safeguard you against life's decisions. You know, if you make a mistake, if you cheat, if you lie, if you if you fall down and you can't seem to get it together, and you make a crazy decision about how you're gonna go about securing an income that there are there are no policies you can buy for that. You can't buy a policy if you stop being the man you're supposed to be, and and and and give up on your children. You can't buy a policy. If something happens as a mother and all of a sudden, you're not the mother you're supposed to be. But there is some insurance coverage out there for you and that relationship that you form with God, that friendship that you form with him, that that alliance that you that that partnership, that that prayer that you put in all the time, there is an insurance policy that you have taken out when you form a relationship with your heavenly Father, when you form a friendship, when you form a bond that protects you, that protects you when these things happen in the event that they happen. Now here's a great thing about prayer. Prayer can head off some stuff from happening. It really really can. Prayer can prevent some things from happen. You know, I'll give you an example in my life. Okay, here we go, because see this is the best way for me to do it. Because see, what I don't like to do is is talk to people without letting them know, Hey, look I'm in this hole with you. I feel where yet? Okay, here we go. I was making some decisions a few years ago because what I thought I was doing was counterbalancing something that was happening in my life. You know, I thought that since I wasn't happy or well for whatever the reason I thought I wasn't happy. If if I, as wrong as I am, wanted to blame somebody else from my unhappiness, that that's that's really if if I make a bad decision because I'm thinking I'm unhappy with somebody, hold a part. Two wrongs don't make it right. And I make a decision to do something wrong, and now the consequences come when I do something wrong. See then that I already know as an intelligent thinking man, as most of you are, that when you do something wrong, that you know there is a consequence for that. I teach that to my son's When you do something wrong, there as a consequence. So as an adult, I fully understood the consequence. And so what I was doing was I was making some decisions that was causing some consequences in my life that was delaying my happiness, delaying my progress, causing my business not to go the way it could go, so forth and so on. Well, what I started doing was I took out this insurance policy called Prayer, and I started putting it in my mix on a daily basis. And then I started putting it in my mix. You know, two three times a day. And then I found myself using it all the time. And then I really started putting it in when when I didn't need any help, when I wasn't in trouble, I started putting insurance and I started making deposits into the bank. I started paying my premiums down. And prayer is like a premium, you just pay in to it. Then when situations started coming up, now it's that prayer that I had put in that in those premiums I had paid, it started preventing me from making the decisions I was making in the past. Thus I didn't have to the suffer the consequences. Thus my businesses didn't have to be delayed in this progress because I had put some payments on some premiums, I had taken out an insurance policy. With my life, my real life. I'm talking about your life where you make your day to day decisions in I'm not talking about see life. Insurance is only good if you die. God has a policy that's avasable, that's available for you. Why are you living see in order foreign insurance policy to pay, something bad got to happen. Now that may be some others out there. I don't know nothing about. But all the ones I got my car insurance, they only come into play if I have an accident. I have an accident insurance policy. You where something happens to me? I got accident, I got. I got my voices covered in case something happened to that. I got that, But but I got to not be able to talk to cash that one. You understand everything. I got homeowners insurance. Don't nothing show up on my homeowners insurance unless it's a flood or fire or thel. Something bad got to happen for my insurance to even make sense. When you take out the policy with your with your heavenly father, when you pay the premiums of prayer, and that's all it costs. Man, it ain't you. Ain't gotta have no money for this policy. I put into the policy. It pays me dividends and benefits for living. Ain't nothing got to go wrong for me to cash in on this policy. I use this policy for good things. I give you an example. I use this policy to ask God to watch over my family when I travel. I use this policy to ask God to bless my sons on their journey into manhood. He covers me I ask God to help make my dreams come true with this policy. He covers me. I asked God for the desires of my heart. He give them to me. I asked God to lead and God and protect me and keep me from making stupid decisions like I used to make. He's all right, partner, stop doing this, stop doing that now. Guess what. I'm not perfect, Steve Harvey, long away from being perfect. I never claimed perfection. Man. Listen to me, y'all, make the decisions to pay your premiums in prayer. Talk to your heavenly father, get you some insurance in your life. And when you have little things like that, keep on stepping. Man. God loves you. Man, Man, I shall hope you talk to God to day because guess what he show would like to hear from you. That's for shows show. Welcome to the ride, Happy fourth? Did you like? Y'all?

It's basically reusable. Keyword in this reusable small cloth squares if people used to wipe and then they put in a bath, then they put in a basket. There's such a big trend where there are a lot of different options on the market. Wait wait, wait, wait wait wait. So so if I come to your house, I'm going to use your clothes? Now, okay, a lot of things wrong with that question you just asked me. First of all, it's wiping. Okay, no, not to my house, no, no, okay, here, let me finish. This is really a big trend. Now there are a lot of different options on the market that come in a wide variety of patterns. Toilet paper make a difference, all right.

All right, it's time for today's strawberry letter. If you're in the situation and you need some advice, all you have to do is go to Steve Harvey f M dot com and submit your Strawberry letter, and Steve and I might read your letter on the air. All right, let's go, Tommy, buggle up and hold on tight. We got it for you. Here it is Strawberry letter. Alright. Subject, don't hold my past against me. Dear Stephen Shirley, I have a question and I need your advice. When should I tell a new love interest that I have been to prison. I am not the average parole though. I am an older woman that served a lengthy prison term as a first offender for transporting drugs. Since my release from prison, I've earned a degree and I have a great career for many years, I own a home, and I'm an upstanding member of my community. No one would ever believe that I have had a considerable amount of my life controlled by the Department of Corrections. So when is it appropriate to disclose this information to a man. I don't want to share it up front because I don't want to be judged unfairly. I also don't want to wait too long because I don't want to shot the man in my last relationship. My man did not hold it against me. We broke it off for other reasons since him. I met a man and we were talking about people being in prison and he had he had strong views against it, so I didn't pursue anything further with him to avoid telling him about my past. I want desperately to be in love, but I'm afraid to be open and honest with guys I meet. It may not be you know, it may not be that big of a deal, and I'm worried for nothing. What are your thoughts? Well, um, I think the timing is everything, and I think you should be honest with him, And you're right you shouldn't wait too long if he's a new love interest. I'm assuming that you guys are dating and going out to dinner and such things. So even though it's hard for you to bring it up because you don't want to be judged, you know you have to bring it up. So one night at dinner as early as possible, you know, if not the first date, the second date, go ahead and tell him. You know, people have to like you for who you are. You You you did what you did, You paid your debt, to society. You spent many years in in prison. You said, now that's over. You know, everyone gets a second chance. I think you deserve a second chance, and you've proved that with your second chance you've become a better person. You say, you're an upstanding member uh in your community, you own your own home, you've you've had a great career for many years, you have a degree. So I mean you're you're clearly a changed person. So if the person who you're with uh liked you, and uh, you know, if you once you tell them, excuse me, they like you for who you are, They're not gonna hold that against you. I mean, there have been many people out there that have on time and have gone gone on to do upstanding things, and I think you're one of those. So UM, tell him, tell him as soon as possible. First, just if not the first date, definitely the second date. Steve. First of all, congratulations on picking yourself up and turning yourself around. Shall I not say yourself? Let me say praise to God for picking you up and turning you around. That God is in the forgiving business. God is in the delivery business. God is in to make your dream come true. By you are a result of that, the fact that you're an older woman and you serve the lengthy prison term as a first defender for transporting drugs. You've earned a degree, you have had a great career for many years, you own a home, and I am outstanding, upstanding member of your community. No one would ever believe you did a considerable out of time control by the Department of Correction. So when is it appropriate to disclose this information to a man? I don't want to share it up front, and you shouldn't. This is nothing you need to share upfront now. Surely gives good advice. I happened to disagree with sharing this with a man on the first or second day. First and second day don't mean I think you reveal this information to a man once you all are about to be intimate. Then the relationship going somewhere, y'all just talking and dating. What is this now? If you feel like it's about to get intimate, then you need to reveal this information. And I'll tell you why. Because a man is now more vested in you, He's developed feelings for you without, as you say, being judgment Because remember the one guy she was liking and she tried to share it up front. You know, uh, he set up and had really strong feelings about people that have been to prison with his Ask Carl, he's out, you know what I mean. So that has happened to her so rightfully. So she's concerned about running off a good man too earlier. So first and second date is out of the question. I disagree. I think it's something you keep. Let a person get to know you, get to understand how you are and feel you without having that information to taint who you really are, because it can happen, cause people are human beings. I got Should nobody judge everybody? Should faith take your faith value for what you are. That ain't how people operating. Let's not be naive. So simple you wait until you're about to become intimate and then you drop it on period. Now anybody don't like that information, I'm sorry, but that's when I would do it now, any question, Shirley, I've been to the pin. You say that right there for y'all star. Now when you when it's about to become intimate. Now, I don't have any questions. We we do just to I guess no, I guess we do disagree on that I think you should the earlier, the better, you know, and and give the person, the other person, the option of whether they want to continue the relationship. People do have strong opinions about you know, people who have been to prison. So I just say the earlier, the better, timing is everything, of course, and you know, give them the option of whether they want to hang in there or get out. That's my opinion. Hanging out for one relationship. Yeah, gotten a degree, got it. We'll finish this woman, Okay, all right, we'll be back with part two of Steve's response coming up at twenty three after the hours you're listening to Steve show. For those of you out there who own a car in a home, you know more than anyone else, those things didn't just fall into your lap. You made it all happen by staying on your grind and working for and now it's time let's stay farm do the work of protecting it with your own personal state farm agent, because they understand just how much at home car mean to you and will always be that to help you when you need him. Stay Farm, here to help the hustle go right, and here to help life go right. Good morning, this is your boy, Kevin Heart, wishing you all a happy being saved. Fourth of July and you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Joe. All right, Steve, come on, let's go with part two of your response to today's Strawberry letter subject don't hold my past against me? See and the reason I think that the well this woman is questioning she needs some advice because she's been to prison before for a large part of her life, and she's wondering when is the right time to inform a man that she has been to prison because she's not the average parole lead. She says, she's an older woman, Sir, the lengthy prison time as a first defender for transporting drug but since her release from prison, she's earned a degree, she has a great career for many years, she's a homeowner and an upstanding member of her community. No one would ever believe that I've had a considerable amount of my life controlled by the Department of Correction. I think you have a fabulous story to do. I think that you are a story of redemption, overcoming, forgiveness and God's great I think you have an incredible story to tell. I think if you told that story, if you peel back and remove the layer of secrecy. As the story, this is my story, this is what I'm from and this is what I've become. More people would resonate with you. I really feel that way. Now. As far as dating a man, if you don't want to take that route, then I don't think you should tell him on the first or second day. I think you should wait until you're into about to become because you all know, Okay, when I get him, when I see this, women know what? What? What if they're gonna have sex only for you know how we get to that? What? What? While we talkt him? She already if you listened to the letter, it's not a woman like should she wait to the both uns? Where's my team? Jay? All day? Don't you? Ada? Makes sense? One more time, Jake, because I don't believe what you just said. I don't believe you said what you just said? She should she wait to them both Una? I know you like what you see, but don't mind fight nack it though. You know that right you hired him, Steve and the other one is your blood story as a story redemption and overcome to write a book about it to mentor young girls to go into prisons and tell your story. I think your life has great value to I think your story, your past, is your story. But you can stand up and make the announcement. I've held this from you off for so many years because I was a shame. But I'm no longer a shamed. I'm actually proud. I'm actually filled with God's grace now and I want to share story. In nineteen I was convicted for drug traffic I got caught up in a situation I was young. I've been to jail for twenty years. I got out in two thousand five. Now a lot of people gonna start clear, not come on hard. Some people there, okay, so the ones that are left right, So we're gonna see some walk out. But give the people that those little ones that are with them. Okay, do Christians anyway? But dog, couldn't we tell them like right after we do? We can you tell me? Then? Let's keep through it your way. All that ain't on my mind. I don't want jail on my mind. Why we do? I know you enjoyed it, but that's how it's gonna go. Jack, It's going down now, it's coming up. Taking the motor you you got caught up, junior, I got one more, Just one more? You yell out lights out, I'm sorry. There a big sign or something like, could you roll over and get my paints? I'm under the bid. You laying on my pain. I agree that she has a great, great, great story. We just we disagree on when she should tell him. Yeah, but I think story and just take the take the whole veil of secrecy off of it, man, and tell your story. See if you tell your story that keep people from telling Yeah, you tell your own truth. You reveal it what they're gonna say exactly. She used to sell truths, Well, yeah I did. But he saved me. God gott to save you from something. I think you have a great story of redemption. I say, pulled back the curtain yourself and walk out on that and who's gonna be, What you're gonna be, what you'll find out? Who you cool people? Is right?

If you don't have the courage for a lot of stuff and you just want to find it, just get this dude out your face. Here's one simple way to do it. Develop bad. Oh oh yeah, that's a one coffee onion. All right, listen, uh it's coming up. It's more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show. You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. A new study suggested writing a to do list before bed could improve sleep. Okay, it really does. I got this from Steve. Steven said, you know, write it out and it really does help you know what you're gonna do when you wake up, you have an idea of how your day's gonna go. I'm gonna do this, and then you see yourself accomplished stuff. I didn't. Never finished the whole damn list. But I'm just saying, you know, you get a start editing because I do write list, but not right before I go to back, and I don't have a set time to do them. I'll say that, all right. Study participants who spent five minutes writing a list of things they had to get done fell asleep nine minutes faster than those who wrote a list of things they already accomplished. It is believed that making a to do list may offload those concerns, resulting in less worry before bed. All right, uh. Study out of Baylor University split fifty seven university students into two groups, with both groups asked to take five minutes before bed to make a list. One group was tasked with writing a list of all the things they had to get done in the day or days ahead, while the other had to write a list of what they completed the previous day. Both groups were told to go to bed right after making their lists. So, Steve, here's your question. Do you have trouble sleeping? Are you constantly kept up worrying about things you have to get done? Sometimes? You know, I do have trouble sleeping about the worries of you know, my life, what I need to do, what I'm trying to accomplish. You know, I have moments like that. It's not often, but I do have moments like. When I have it, it's usually the reason I don't know whatever you're trying to accompan dog, I've got a lot that I'm trying to accomplish this year, though, good question. Good question. To revamp and reorganize my company to make it more efficient. But one of my goals is to hire really top flight people because I've I've been generous to a fault. I've given people opportunities who have taken advantage of that. Uh, And then you know, I feel sorry for their families and stuff, and I keep them on way pass when they should be gone. And for the first time, I'm having a system put in place where people are accountable for accomplishing certain things and if you don't, then you lose your job yourself, and it takes the onus off of me having to fire somebody if you don't perform up to the requirements, then you lose your position. So so so will you actually tell them or you have someone you have someone you know I have fired. I mean, you know I have things in place now. I'm not so bogged down with the technical aspects of my life. And that's one of the things that I've been doing wrong. For years. I've been involved in every aspect of my life, which helps me because I want to have no but it worried it's just too much micro managing in terms of being involved in everything. Right, I don't micro manage because I do give people to freedom, but in giving them that freedom, they've taken advantage of my business. And so now they know I'm busy, so they never perform and they just keep getting their check. You know. It woke me up. I realized, I said, in my company, I'm the only person who has to come to work. Other people can miss. I have to perform and I have to make the grade other people don't have. I have no one else in my company has to do that. That stops in two thousand and eight. That's on the tree. Does that answer your question, nephew, A right, coming up. It's more of a Steve Harvey Morning Show at thirty three after the hour. You're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show.

All right, great job always coming up, coming up Steve's club using remarks at forty nine after the hour, Gather round everyone you're listening to all right, here we are last break of the day. Thank you all for listening. As always, Steve, come on and take us home with your closing remarks today. I have some really really good information. I'm really really pleased with this line of thinking because everybody has them, everybody has to deal with them, everybody faces it. It's just so many people lose the point of it. You know, the thing about going through something, I think you can go through something better if you know there's a point to it, you know what I mean. People go to the gym to work out if they're trying to get to a certain point. The moment you don't see the point of it, going to the gym becomes ridiculous to you. It becomes harder to you because it's all of a sudden, it doesn't make sense. So what I want to show you is how to look at the point of something. And the thing that I'm gonna talk to you about is something that everybody faces when they're trying to be successful, because everybody is going to go through some difficult times. Everybody. I don't care who you are, You're going to have some difficult times. Everybody is going to have some challenges, challenges, difficulties, setbacks. You're going to have this. But listen to me. All of this is part of the process to succeed. When you are presented with these setbacks, these difficulties, and these challenges, I want you to understand what they actually are. They are actually test. Everybody gets tested. The reason you have to have the test it is because tests are presented to you to see if you're willing to go through the process. It's merely just to see if you're willing to go through what it takes. The challenges, the setbacks, the difficulties, the tests are just there to see if you are willing to go through the process. Now, in being willing to go through the process, it assures you something that when you pass the test and you reach your goal, that you will have a level of appreciation for it. I'll give you an example. Somebody use your card. I don't recommend that they're not gonna take care of your card or where you do. Because they didn't pay for they're not making a note on it. They didn't have to struggle to get the down payment. They didn't have to make sure their credit was right. They didn't walk in the bank and get turned down a couple of times, didn't go back and fix their credit. Now they got up. That's why if you rent out your room to somebody, they're not gonna take care of your room like you take care of your house, because they didn't go through the process to get it. All they wanted was the room. Because they didn't have to fill out the credit report. They didn't go down here. They don't have the mortgage. They don't know what it took to have to own this house. That's why they didn't take care of their yard, because they've written. Some people who writt don't take care of property because they ain't days. Now that's not all writtens. I'm just talking about the case of some Because when you go through the test, it causes you to have an appreciation for now. The tests are necessary. The test teaches you things. The test provides you with a lesson. Tests are merely lessons. You're gonna see these tests again, and when you see them again, they won't appear is nearly as difficult because you've already taken the test before and you've already passed it. The test also strengthens you. All these tests you have it, it's strengthens you. It's like lifting weights. Oh it's heavy right now. If you put them fifties in your hands, that's heavy weight. But if you keep lifting fifties after a while, you can lift seventies. But the fifties. But guess what the fifties did. That was so hard that you felt like dropping, and you need to spot it. They made you stronger. Though the tests make you stronger. The next thing that the test does for you is it makes you experienced. Because now that you have these tests under your belt, you know something you can turn around and share with people how to get past the tests because you've seen them before. This is the reason that you have challenges, setbacks, and difficultures because you are being tested. So when God gives you the thing that you're asking for you will have a level of appreciation for it. You will have learned the lessons that it takes to maintain it. You will have been strengthened by the process, and you will become experienced by the process. Here is the last and main thing that the test does. For these tests that they're presented to you. Old people have said it a thousand times. You cannot have a testimony without the test. How can you share this experience with anybody? How do you tell a young person what to do if you ain't been through nothing. How can you teach me how to play golf and you don't play golf? It's impossible. You can't be the swim coach and you can't swim. I'm sorry you can't. You got to have gone through the process. It's the process and the test that gets you to the point. But you can't have a testimony without a test. You'll have nothing to say in your life. If you've never passed any tests, you will have no story to tell. So all of you that are being tested, you're working on your story. Now, what story will you tell your children? What story will you tell your grandchildren? What story will you tell young people who need memery. What story will you tell people who they look up to you and they think you've got something, What story will you tell You've got to be tested to make it happen. Past the test, deal with them and you'll be fine. Those are my closing remarks today. Have a great weekend. Thank you, you have a great for all. Steve.
