Y'all know what time to y'all don't know y'all all looking back to back down, giving them mong just like American bus things and it's tubs y'all to me true good to the hearty guy listening to me to other for stolen, Hoy, why don't you join yeah, well by joining me, honey, say you got to turn Yeah, you're going to you. You gotta turn you to turn out turns? Do you love me? Got to turn out to turn the water? The water go? Comey, come on your back at it. I sure will, Like good Martin, everybody you are listening to the voice, come on now, dig me one and only Steve Harvey Man old man, got a radio show. The only way to find your real purpose, your real mission in life. You're real what for? The thing that you got to go get it get after is you've got to connect with God. You have to connect with him because as your creator, no one knows better what you were made for than your maker. I mean not just I mean man, and just make a lot of common sense, don't it. I mean really, you know people kill me with with with the lack of belief. I mean, you know, like all of this that we have today spun out from a cosmic ball of dust in the galaxy that cooled off and and formed all these lakes and rivers and clouds and mountains and valleys and birds and animals and people from a cosmic speck of dust. And that they act like there's no connection to a higher calling or a higher reasoning. Not, that's just you know. And and they try to create for those that do believe this hocus focus ritual, this magical what is that? There's no scientific I don't august science. I think that science is very real. I think that science is very applicable. I think that science helps us learn so many things. But science ain't everything. Now you you you might as well under that's there's some unexplainable that science can't wrap their mind around. So here they go with something else. And then you've got the naysayers who who use that, the nonbelievers who use that as the proof that there is no higher calling on how I being, and I listen to me, I don't really into explaining all that a way. If that's how you feel, then gone and get the feeling how you're feeling with it. But let me explain something to you I just don't see how. I don't see how. Man, What is this? What is this conscious that eats away at you from time to time? Where does the moral barometer come from that exists in your life? What? What makes you know the difference between right and wrong? What did that come from? That cosmic spector dust that spun out of control and cool this fiery hot ball down, and then these lakes and rivers and all the clouds and mountains got what? Where did your conscious come from? What is your need to cry out from? What does the word Lord help me come from? Why when you get in a in a dark place and you whisper Jesus, where did that come from? What? What is that if you're driving on the road and your car carams off a cliff? Oh, Lord help me? You know where? What are these promises come from that we make, these deals we cut that we make with a higher power? Why why when you're at your lowest moment? Man, you you you you you turned somewhere? Okay, not for that. I've I've explained my side of it. And a matter of fact, God is really almost unexplainable to me. Okay, so this we didn't just had that moment I had to get that off my chest. I want, I want. I want to share something with you about when you strike out to find your mission, or how about when you strike out on your mission once you discover what your purpose is? Or let's let's simplify, what happens when you set a goal and you ready to strike out on that goal. What happens when you set and ambition in front of you or put something in your sights that you want to attain that you want to become successful at. What's the mind set that you have to develop? There are three things you must first ask, You must then believe, and you must then receive. Now the received part all these parts is it's gotta thing to it. You gotta ask, You just gotta ask for it. You know you've heard the scripture before, you have not because you asked, not why don't you ask? But then after you ask, here is the kick? You got to believe that it can happen for you. Stop looking at the success of other people and not thinking that that same success can happen for you. And I'm not saying that Pacific way specific way. I'm just saying that the success can happen for you just like it can happen for somebody else. Why do you think it keeps happening to other people over and over because they ask and they believe. Now here's the cold part. Receive it? Oh, oh, what you mean? Receive it? I asked for it, I believe in it. Why would I not want to receive it? Act like it, Act like it's already there. Realize that, man, it's just days away. We don't know if it's gonna happen tomorrow, next week, in thirty days. We don't know if it's gonna take a few years. But you got to receive it. Though. You gotta ask, You got to believe, and you got to receive it. You gotta act as though as that not as another part. Not to this about work. You don't please. The faith without works is dead. Don't think you're gonna just ask for something believing and then go sit down and start watching TV. Come on, now, let's get real. Let's not leave out the other jewel. You got to work here here. What I want you to know about when you strike out on that mission, that the journey that you strike out on to accomplish a goal or to set out on the mission the journey is a process. It's not an arrival date. All you're looking to do, folks, is start the process. Act like it's there and the arrival date is coming. But here is the beauty of the journey being a process. But all along the way of your journey you will find success the whole time you're on the on the journey, the whole time you're in the process of finding your mission and fulfilling your mission, uncovering your dreams, reaching your goals. The beauty of it is all along the way you're going to find success on so many levels. And people fail to look at that part. They keep thinking of themselves, Man, I ain't there yet, I ain't you know. It's like when you take a little kid on a long car tripping in the back seat. Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Boy? If you just look out the window, see where we then being. Look out the window, look at the mountains, look at these trees, look at the views we got. No, we ain't there yet, But Lord ha mercy, look at what he's showing us along the way. Because the journey is a process. But man, know that in the process of arriving at your designated gold dream, ambition or mission. Understand this that the journey is a process, but all along the way you will find success. There are things that are going to happen to you along the way, man, that will be so gratifying and fulfilling. Where the journey is joyful. You don't have to be there to appreciate the ride. Appreciate the journey and the process. Stop getting mad because you ain't at the arrival data. Your dreams ain't came true yet. Look up. You might discover, man, that you're living better. You might discover that you don't have a million yet, but you'd have made a quarter of a million what you're tripping for because you ain't got the million yet. Remember when you didn't have nothing. Be grateful for the two hundred and fifty thousand dollar mark, the hundred thousand dollar mar the three hundred and twenty two thousand dollar mark. Don't you understand, man, you may not be where you want to be, But man, can't you thank God that you ain't where you was? How about that? One? Huh? All right?

If you're in a situation or you just need some advice about your relationship, please send us your Strawberry letter at Steve Harvey FM dot com. You never know, Steve and I could be reading your letter on the air just like this one this morning. Subject Wait that's your daddy. Buckle up, hold on tight here it is a strawberry letter. I don't know why I like saying this subject. Wait, that's your daddy. Dear Steven Shirley. That subject, I don't know it intrigues me. Dear Stephen Shirley. I just started dating this guy and he is great. I'm twenty eight and he is thirty one. Here's where it gets tricky. Last week, he invited me to his family's barbecue. I was excited because this would be the first time I would meet his family. We go to his parents house and he introduced me to his siblings and his step mom. Then we headed to the backyard to meet his dad, who was busy on the grill. His daddy turned around and I was sure. Turns out that his daddy is my ex sugar daddy. His father and I messed around for six months, and I broke it off because I started to have real feelings for him. And let me tell you why, Shirley. He was the best at it. He was the best at what he did, the best I've ever had. I couldn't believe that I was at his house with his son. After a very awkward pause, his dad shook my hand and said it was nice to meet me. I quickly turned to go back into the house, and my boyfriend followed me. I don't think my boyfriend noticed how awkward we were the rest of the night. Now, I feel like my boyfriend should know everything, but I don't want to cause any family problems. Should I just keep my mouth. Even though my boyfriend does not measure up to his dad, I don't want to lose him. Please help. Wow, I just gotta ask you, you know what, what are your plans? Are you and his son planning a future together? I mean, you just said you just started dating this guy, so I can't imagine you know, you're really in your mind knowing where this is going to go in the future. But having said all that, I I just don't think this is a good look for you. I really don't, because you know it's going to come out at some point. You couldn't even hold it together that night, you were being awkward. I'm sure his dad is going to be this is going to come out. It's not gonna be a good look for you being in this relationship with the son of your ex lover. So you know you did the Dad, you broke it off because it was good and the best. You're you're always going to compare them from here on out. Now, I don't think you're gonna be able to hold it together. I don't think it's gonna be a good relationship. That's always going to be looming in the back of your mind. If it comes out, it's gonna be on his son's mind. Uh, you know, if you guys are planning some kind of future together. I just I think you need to break this off and just move on to a different situation with different people. Period, Steve, Yeah, we got a problem here. Yeah, this is a full blown situation. This is a problem. Girl, girl, girl. First of all, you meet this boy twenty eight years old. He younged, he ain't at maximal capacity yet, he's yet learned all that he's going to know. I think we would agree. Let your church say, man, at eight, you are underdeveloped. But when it comes to life experience, know how, and especially when it comes to the ability to pleasure. Thank you. We want to take this off from a different angle. Appreciate Sister Shirley for wonderful rendition of and her a selection of this strawberry level. But let me drive this hill car. Of course I've driven it before. You go and you meet the mama, the step mama, the siblings, and all that is going good. But back on that grill was the g M that's the grial master. I happened to be one of these people. Yeah, I spend much time in my backyard, and I am also it I can relate to the Here we go. He turns around, and I'll be down if his daddy ain't your farmer sugar daddy. Now this is when the relationship has too much incoming, because right now, what makes this relationship wrong is y'all got the same day. That's church same man. Amen, Amen, y'all got the same daddy. Oh he his daddy, but he your sugar daddy. I'm now yeah, So now you meet. He shakes your hand, but oh lord, him missing the greatest player move I've ever seen. He turns to you and he says, nice to meet you. Yeah. Now this isn't the player move because he can't heard his son and he can't let the step mama know that he didn't had you, so he wanted to let bygones be bygones. Nice to meet you. You broke it off because you were starting to develop feelers. And why were you developed easy? Because this man in hill Lord help Mercy was breaking the walls of Gibraltar have come down. Your bacon was getting fried extra Christ. Your cookie was dumped all the way down in the middle and left in there soaking. Your oven been up on five hood. Your ass has been brought.

When they come back, I'm gonna tell you how good it was and what's going to happen after all right, we'll have part two of Oh he he's both of y'all's daddy. You need to know that, Yes, his daddy, your sugar daddy, and the sugar stealing your tape.

She didn't win in the backyard with a new boyfriend. Introduced to his father. He turned around and I'll be damned, it's her sugar daddy. Naw, it's an awkward Paul, she says in the letter. Then she broke it off because of real friend. She said. It turns out to his daddy is my ex sugar daddy. His father and I messed around for six months, and I broke it off because I started to hear a real feeling film. But he shook your hand and he said, nice to meet me. I quickly turned to go back into my house. And your boyfriend. Now here's where she talks to talk to Shirley, Like Shirley, nobody see, I'm being turned on your little girl. And let I started to hear we were feeling him. And let me tell you why. Surely he was the best at what he did. See I know this right here. First of all, was I not out on that greed you're the grill master? But here I come back in this letter again, he was the best at what he did. Right there, all this about me the master, I'm out that grill. I just relate to this letter. Yeah, turn it over. Now, he the best of what he did, the best I've ever had, I know, because once again, why because he hadn't had her up on five hunter. He'd been brawling this this girl that got bold. And see what made it so special was the inticity of the knowledge that his daddy had that as you say in the letter. Now I feel like my boyfriends, you know everything, but I don't want to cause any problems. I keep up even though my boyfriend does not measure up to his dad.

We talked about what we've been through, how we've been through it, how it impacted us. And it's funny sometimes sometimes it gets a little bit more serious. Um, But what it does is it allows every guest to come in and know they can be their whole self. And that's what I love the most, Steve about you coming through. You've been doing this network, getting this network money for so long. I don't remember the last time you came on the show where you could be your whole self. And that that's what you proved the theory behind man Cave, that you can come on and be your whole self. Yeah, because Man, I didn't have to worry. I had laid the concern for my brand down because I was just with brothers. Man. I was with Jeff Me and Jeff Frizz We go back. I've been doing take a long time, So I was sitting there with cats that I know that I trust and on just you know, do nothing. Put you out there now sleek and co s. What's just like finding new money on the side wall and you know, and and and it was just an interesting thing. Man. I just think the show is great. And uh, what's some of the topic y'all gonna cover you? So we we were talking a little bit about fatherhood, how our fathers inspired us. We're going to relationships a little bit um and and as always, we were talking about what's happening um in the news on social media. But before we get out of Steve, I think the thing that this has been so great is that men can see themselves and all these brothers. But women have been loving this show. They're saying, look, I understand my man better. I didn't know y'all really talked like this. I appreciate being a fly on the wall. So it's been incredible to bring a show not just for brothers, but for the for the ladies as well. Hey, that's that's the whole purpose of Man Cave.

You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show and you study out of the University of Queensland Guys, Queensland, Australia determined that being in a relationship makes people fatter. Okay. The study found that those were the long term partner weighed on average twelve point seven pounds more than single people and showed an average weight gain of three point nine pounds per year. And it could be that eating with someone leads people to eat larger portions and more calories, or it could be that since they don't have you know, they don't have to impress anyone. Uh, couples just kind of let themselves go at it. It's when you out there running them, it's actually reduces calories trying to catch you running them. That's exercise, that's work. You gotta get over here, get back in here, answering that phone right quick, dab over and knock it off the table. You gotta run down here, dry your car, hide it in the bushes around the corner, walk back over to the house, running a dove over a table to answer that phone. So you can't be thicker. You can't be you're constantly looking at the windows and it might show up. You don't know, you may plan. You nervous and hard to have. You can't have company over.

I can't be sitting up in here eating and you gotta remember them. You can't. You can't eat. You gotta go over there and eat with that person. Run over that man. You can't lie and eat at the same time. It's too much. That's why single people are tremble. It's just it's possible. Though. You can't lie and eat. I haven't done it time, it's doable. All this stuff that you're running from, I run to it. This is don't don't. Don't accept this that you can't do. Take the challenge.

No, coming up our last break of the day with Steve Harvey and his closing remarks, You're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show, all right, don't forget to check your local listing for Steve Harvey's daytime talk show, and then tonight watch Steve. He's gonna be in showtime at the Apollo. And then don't forget bats Man Cave that's climbing every week Thursday night is like, excuse me more more viewers sto Hey Cose remarks. I want to talk to you today about a very very important principle of success. Um. And look, I'm not talking to you like I'm an expert. I'm just talking to you with what I have learned in my sixty one years here, and I've learned it the hard way. One of these. None of these lessons were given to me. I bought most of these lessons that I tell people about. But here's one of the great principles of success. There's a great fraternity out there I won't mention the name of it who has cardinal principles of man who had scholarship, perseverance, and open lift. But one of those principles. All of them are critical, but one that's really really dire is perseverance. You have got to practice perseverance. You will not be successful without it. You cannot be successful without it. You can quit wonting it without it. Perseverance the ability to see it through, to continue to pursue when all hope is gone, the willingness to overcome all obstacles while still in the pursuit of something. That's how I look at perseverance. That when they tell me no and it can't be done, I'll hunker down. I get it done. I prove them wrong. I persevere. Perseverance is important, y'all. And the reason I'm talking to you is because so many millennials out there, so many young people boom have been jaded, been given some bad information. Because you live in this Google society and pressing a button and pops up Instagram. It pops up what you want in life. You cannot attain overnight. If you do and you skip any steps to get it, you have to retrace those steps. You have to step on every step to success. You can't skip them. If you get to success without those steps, life will put you back on every last one of those steps. I promise you that that's how it works. So there are no overnight sensations. If it is, those overnight sensations will not stay there unless they go back and step on every last one of those steps. There's no elevator to the top. You have to take this step if somebody, if you catch a ride to the top with somebody else, when they look around and discover that you over that acting and behaving like you don't belong uphill, life will send you back downstairs so you can take the steps so when you get there again, you will appreciate and to know how to behave Instagram and got your food got you thinking that you could just pop on Instagram and insta is the keyword, because now y'all instantly thank you own and cracking because you got forty folk likes today, forty folk likes can't make you successful, I promise you a can't. Two million likes can't make you successful. It can make you like for that moment on Instagram, But tomorrow you gotta post something else because they're gonna forget about you. You have to pursue. You have to get to old age. Why do you hear everybody talking about working for retirement. You know why people work for retirement because they understand something about retirement. The average person has to understand that you have to persevere through a lot of years of hard work to get to finally say I can relax now, because you gotta put in a lot of time in order to get that time back. Did you hear what I just said. You have to put in a lot of time to get a lot of time back. No one can just say all right without putting in the work. I'm retiring tomorrow. Retiring with what It's not instant. It requires our perseverance. That's why when you get on an airplane and you walk back to your seat and coach, just take a look. The next time you get on an airplane. People up there in first class got gray hair because it took them all their life to work to get to a point where they can be first class. Now. They might have been up there since they was forty fifty, But just look at them real close. They look a little bit more worn than everybody in the back. But they sit up kind of straight up there too. It takes time to get to the front. Your first airplane ticket can't be a first class ticket now, and let somebody buy you one or something like that. Once you get exposed first class, it's a good thing because I opened up your mind to first class treatment, and then anything less than first class treatment will become unacceptable to you mentally. But you take a long time to get in first class, y'all. You've got to persevere. You've got to start pressing, y'all. You got to never ever give up. You've got to keep hope alive. You're old. People say it's always dark as before the dawn. You know what they're doing. That means. That means it always looks like it's real bleak and dark. But in just a little while it's gonna be light. But if you give up, you won't see the light. A plaque that sits on my desk in Atlanta reminds me of one thing that a friend of mine sent me. Plaque says, if you're going through hell, just keep going. Why would you stop there? You got to persevere to get to the end. Those are my clothes.
