Y'all know what time of y'all don't know. Y'all have a suit looking like the back down giving them more like the Millian buck things in the cubbings me true good it. Steve har listening to the movie together for study, I don't join join me? You doing men? You gotta turn hur you gotta turn to turn them out. You got to turn them out. Turn the water the water go. Come, come on your fad Uh huh, I show will good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice, Come on, dig me out one and only. Uh, Steve Harvey got a radio show, Yeah you do. Steve Harvey got a radio show. But like I said the other day, you got something too, though, don't you. God hadn't done something wonderful for you. You just gotta thank Him for it, you know, in the midst of all that's going on in my life and in your life. You know, I always use myself as an example because well, I mean that way. I guarantee one hundred percent I know what I'm talking about. Um, here's the situation, you know, with everything that's going on in my life and all the things I'm asking God for in the midst of a taxing and a very trying situation. That's very challenging for me right now. Man, God just keeps on, keeps on surprising me. He keeps doing things. And I want you to look at your life. Or for a second, let's make two columns here. Let's make a column of all the things you want from God. You know, just do that throughout the course of the day. You know, you know, run down the list of all the things you're asking God for, all the things you're praying for, the things you aspire to, what you your dreams, your visions, whatever it is. Just make a column, a list of all those things. Let's make three lists. And then the second list, I want you to make a list of everything that you've been asking God for. So I guess that could be a little bit of the same. But this third list, I want you to do a check off point. I want you to do a make a list of everything that God has given you that you've asked him for. Just think about it like that for a second. I may be explaining a little wrong right now, but I'm gonna pull it together for you. Make a list of everything you're asking God for, just listed. You know, it's Okay, it's a dream board. You can call it that. I got one. It's a vision board. You know. Every everybody's got something you hope for. Make a list now. I want you to make another list of everything you've asked God for that he's given you already. See this is a good list because sometimes and what I've been guilty of and maybe you two in my request list on my dream board. I keep focusing so hard sometimes on the what I'm yet to receive. I keep focusing so hard on the what I hope he gives me. I keep focusing so hard on the things that I yet not fulfilled in my life that sometimes, as he starts checking off my wish list the things I've asked for in the past that have come to pass that he's given me, I sometimes, in praying for what I want, get to thank him for what he's done for me. And I'm currently in the middle of that situation. And this morning when I woke up, I really, man, I just got on my knees this morning and I quit tripping for a second. I said, Man, hey, God, you know what I really do need all them things I'm asking for, and I'm really am believing that you're gonna give it to me. But in the meantime, though, Man, have I overlooked some important details here. I had to really look at what he's done for me. I mean, look, man, take yourself out of it personally and look, well, you can leave yourself in it however you want to be. Some people can't do that, So just leave yourself in it there. But man, I started looking at the eye part of me, and I started looking around at what's happening overall. Like, Man, he has kept my family together in spite of the attempts to tear it apart. I look at all of that. I look at how he's blessing my children with the desires of their heart, which I pray for my kids. You know, I want my kids to have the life than I've had. I really really do. I don't want them to take as long as it took me to get it together. I really really don't. I'm trying to say, hey, man, if you go to college, this is what you can be. Don't do like your father did. Don't go three years, drop out, throw yourself into a spiral and then got to start to scratch all over again, you know, And for the most part so far. You know, they're doing quite well of it. You know, you know they they're getting kicked around a little bit, but that's life. I started thinking of the blessings that he's helped me overcome with some of the previous mistakes I've made in relationships in my life. And then I started looking about the things he's blessed me with that I've been asking him for. But since I've moved on from it, I forgot to keep thinking him because I gotta always thank God for a roof over my head because guess what, when I was asking for the roof and I didn't really have it, then he gave me one. Since he gave it to me, what, I'm just cool now, I can't ever go back to him and go, hey, man, I really do appreciate this roof over my head because that was a time when I was living in a car. But see, so every morning I wake up, I gotta remember the fact that I have a home now, because I got to look back and go, man, that was time, Steve, when you didn't have no home. But see, we forget what God has done for us because in our column that won't column, the need column, we oftentimes forget for the columns and the check marks, as He's already fulfilled in our life. You've got to take inventory every now and then daily if possible. But I know we're humans. We're not gonna do that. I don't. But you've got to take inventory of your life to say, hey, what has God done for me? You know? And remember something else too. Change is good, but change is challenging. Accept the challenge that it is. Look a lot of you come up to me all the time and say, Steve Man, thank you, man boy, you in the morning. Man, I really be needing that. Well. I under said it a hundred times, but I'm gonna say it again, y'all. I'll be needing it too. You know. You understand, sometimes what God is dealing with me is for me. But now I'm in a sharing position where I can open up and if I just if I just quit being so about me and become a little bit more transparent, I can maybe some of me that's happening to me is happening to you, and you can see some of this in me. That's why I use myself as an example, because man, I'm catching it too, y'all. I ain't perfect either. So for those of you that come up to me and say that, I want you to understand these these talks in the morning. Man, this is important for me because man, I need these conversations from God. I need God to continue to strengthen me, to show me the way to help me understand what's happening to me. And see as we've all those of you who have made the decision to change, to become a better person, a better woman, a better boy, a better girl, a better man. For those of you have made the decision to change, changes a challenge, and accept the challenge because it's gonna come. Because right out of that here come to haters. It ain't come people you don't even know, discussing your life and your change. If God see you, really really mean what you say in spite of what they say about you, God will raise you above the phrase. He'll keep promoting you, he'll keep blessing you, He'll keep moving you up. He will use you as a show off point. He'll show you off man. He'll make you. He'll make you look good to people man who wish you'd fall all day long. And so to all your haters, all your haters will end up just watching you rise. Man, they will watch you continue to grow. That's what God will do for you. Man. You can fool the world, but you can't fool God. God know your heart, He knows your every thought. Man, you're listening to show people. Get ready, there's a train come in. You don't need no ticket. You just get on, boy, ladies and gentlemen, the train is here. Shirley Strawberry, Hey, good morning to you. How you doing, Steve? Colorful morning and your morning.

All right, we promised to talk about holiday traditions, especially Christmas traditions, and while time honored holiday traditions are important, they've also evolved over the generations. Now this is according to a survey, family activities and writing to Santa are still among the most popular holiday traditions. That is interesting, even though because I've never written to Santa. Even though we live in a tech savvy world, three out of four parents say their children still handwrite letters to Santa, as opposed to a more modern approach like email. And really, and what's the most popular family activity this year? Well, according to most households, it's decorating the Christmas tree as a family. Now that I like, I can I can relate to that. Course we do that. Yeah. So lets so, Steve, we got to start with you. Here are what are the family traditions that your family keeps that you definitely First of all, let me get this straight, Boodle, your grandson Ale, Noah and Rose grandchildren, I'm not telling them that Santa Claus's coming down the chimney. Okay, they Mom and daddy Mike. But if they come over Papau's house, Papa bought all this. Okay, straight about that out here, y'all. Papa, all the tree, all the little finger as snow, I bought all that in Hire. I had that tree in the in the in the in the foyer that Papa bought that. So that's a new tradition really because because you weren't you brought up with thinking Santa Claus did it for a while when you were little. Yeah yeah, so you're usually as young as your grandchildren aren't. Yeah, well, no traditions. You know, my kids take their keys to see Santa Claus. H Yeah, they thinking it's a senaca. I'm just telling don't bring them over here. You got so real with it right now. Well, no, a Papa house all is paid for by the big ball. Hard as you work, you want to credit the white man. Didn't nothing up in here, the ballhead black man that's in that office down there at the front of the you're going that dad's Santa Claus down there. A matter of fact, don't bring him up when you're come in here, because he had nothing to do everything on this side of the gate. Santa Claus ain't had damn thing. Okay. So that's one. That's the one that's men that you burst wide open. Okay. Secondly, huh, if you tap up your toy on Christmas, you get your asshoop on Chris what man that it's a tradition. That tradition standard many rations man had. I had this didn't lay away and you just said even broke it. It ain't even fold it. Yeah, he opened it at five and it's broken. Na. I had a nephew named Pogo. All Pogo did every toy he got, he took it apart. Wow, but then you know what, he put it all back together. That's all he wanted to drink. Well, yeah, that's like girls. We used to take our doll's clothes off. He a mechanic. Yeah right, that's what he's a mechanic right now. Because see, yeah, so that was some good. But did he get in trouble for doing it when he was a kid? Dog? Because if my daddy saw the tard toe up. But he was asked after the second year, is that Pogo Toya put him back? Yeah? Oh, he wasn't too mad, all right? What else? So so, no Santa, but things if you broke your toys? What else? Oh? These are some traditions, Steve. I want to hear some of junior stuff. I know family. Sounds like he got his up. Oh man, absolutely. One tradition was you're going to bed at seven on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day, Christmas Eve. Oh, I could never sleep on Christmas Eve. I could never do that because Santa was coming. But Santa don't show up to nine in the morning. We gotta go back to bed nine. Why I think they got nine?

Hold on tight, we got it for you here. It is the Strawberry Letter subject we fit together like a lock and key. Dear Stephen Shirley, I've been in a relationship with a married man for ten years. People think that all mistresses have low self esteem. However I don't. I am very confident and I love everything about myself. Since I've been with my guy, I have only cheated on him once, and I told him about it and promised him that it wouldn't happen again. In the first few months of our affair, I tried to end it, but both he and I were already in love. He is my best friend and he has my entire heart. We share a bank account and he is on the deed to my house. I have a tattoo of a lock and he has a tattoo of the key. I know his wife, but we're not friends. If I happen to run into the two of them in our small community, we all should chat about our children. My children and his children attend the same school and have a lot of activities together. He takes me on annual trips and he spends time with me during the holidays. He has never treated me like I was a dirty little secret. But now I'm getting older and I refuse to keep sharing him. I love him and I want him all to myself. Basically, I'm at the point where i need him to leave his wife for me. I'm not worried about karma. I believe in fair and I believe he is my soul mate. When I shared my feelings with him, he didn't respond, so I'm not sure what's going through his mind. So what should my next move do? Please advise, all right, your next move, obviously I don't see how you don't see this should just be to leave him and get your own man. That should be your next move. Because you told him how you felt. You've been with him for ten years. Surely he knows this, But you told him that you know you wanted him all to yourself, and you wanted him to leave your wife, leave his wife and all of that, and he didn't respond. There was your answer. He didn't respond that was it. If he if he was gonna do that, he would have said something, he would have lied, he would have said something. He said nothing. Okay, so you're not sure what's going through your mind. It's not that leaving his wife for you. It's not that I can tell you that. You guys have been together ten years. You say you don't have any selfish low selfish esteem, but you too, because you're there in this relationship, and you know, if you felt confident, you could really get out and get a man of your own. This is crazy. You guys go to school together. I mean, your kids go to school together. You know his wife. You guys a small community. This is all too much. You need to get your own man. I'm sure there are plenty of men out here who would love to have someone like you. You just have to think higher of yourself. You say you have low self esteem, but if you don't have low self esteem, but you do. If you thought better of yourself, you would know that you wouldn't have to be number two, You could be someone's number one. Steve, you know a lot of men, huh, don't. Nobody will not have to read this letter. Let me just go on and quit playing with this and get right to it. Subject. We fit together like a lock and key parphesies to somebody else's house. You've been a relationship with a married man for ten years now, he she said. People think that mistresses have low self esteem. However I don't. I am very confident. I love everything about myself. Since I've been with my guy, I've only cheated on him one and I told him about it and promised that it wouldn't happen again. Wow, ain't you you know what? You just you? You? You just a bundle of virtue. God, I want somebody like you. Why would I not want a woman that sleeps with a married man and cheats in that relationship. I'm gonna this in my life. You might not have low self esteem, but you shon't think a lot of your little raggedy ass here, oh man. In the first few months of our fair I tried to end it, but both of ours was already in love. He my best friend, He has my entire heart. We share a bank account, and he's on the deed to my house. Really, you took him down there and put his name on the deed to your house, and y'all got a bank account together. I bet the statement go to your house, though, I promise you that listen to this. I have a tattoo of a lock, and he got a tattoo of the key. You don't think his wife ain't got a lock tattooed on us somewhere? How you think he explained in this key to the woman he go home to a sleep with every day. You don't. You ain't the only one with that damn lock. Only I can promise you if he got a key, his wife got a tattoo of a lock. Two Some keys had two locks. You know, girl, I know how this go. I know his wife, but we're not friends. How are you gonna be friends? If I happen to run into the two of them in our small community. We chitchat about our children. My children, his children attend the same school and have a lot of activities together. You know why because you put him in everything. His damn kids. They're on the spelling B team. I know you can't spell. Get on that, get in the band, Damn the mistress getting the band. Give a damn. If you don't like Canda tuba. The boy played the tuba, you're gonna play one he takes me on annual trips that don't mean nothing. That could go somewhere for the weekend. He could lie and say his job going for the weekend, but here going to one. And he spends time with me doing the holidays during the holidays, not on the holidac he come over Christmas Eve. He can't be over that Christmas Day. I'm telling you, all right, Steel, lou hold hold that thought.

He's married, that kids go to the same school. They're in a lot of activities. Him and his wife ain't friends. He got a tattoo of a key on him and she got a tattoo of a lock. I just informed her that don't mean a damn thing, because his wife probably got a tattoo of another damn lock. Right, So welcome to this. They take annual trips. That's him telling his wife he gotta be as his trip, and he dragged you on it. He spent time with me doing the holidays during the holidays, not on the damn holiday. Can't can't be at your house on Thanksgiving? All the people coming home warns that's the first question, first question, right, Wars. He can't come back in the house and answer that he went to to show to get some Iggno, I've been gone four hours. He has never treated me like I was a dirty little secret. But you are. I know he ain't treat you like that, but you are the dirty little secret. He told his wife and his kids. Yet they don't know down at the school the bank ain't never called his wife and talked about what you is the dirty little see. But now I'm getting older and I refuse to keep sharing him what you're fend to do, So get what you said. I love him and I want him all to myself. Basically, I'm at the point why I need him leave his wife for me. That's basically at this point I need him to leave his wife for me. I'm not worried about Calma. What you ain't worried about Camma. You're getting it now. You ain't fenna get what you want and somebody find to takes something belong to you. Calming, don't come comma, don't care about you can dot Comma.

We forgive our datas well. You think they're talking to I believe in faith and I believe he is my soul mate. Now what you believe, you're the only one believe is you know why? Because watch this sentence. When I shared my feelings with him, he didn't respond because he ain't got no response because that ain't fitting to happen. It's oh, he not fitting to leave his wife for you. This's been working ten years, just like this. We got a bank account, I'm on the deed to your house, yes, And you got that lock tattooed on you with this key. Ken't fit a whole lot of locks. So I'm not sure what's going through his mind. And she trying to figure out where the hell all that's coming from. It's been ten years of bliss. You're fitting to blow it. How can he have his family and you too? If he leaves his family? He can't do that? What's wrong with you? See? But you said you didn't have little self esteem? But then later on in the letter you say, but now I'm getting older and I refuse to keep sharing him. You're sharing him because you have little self esteem. But now you don't get older. Now you don't want to share no more. Oh you're esteemed and picked up. You see what I'm saying. Lady, You can't call me and Sherley? Now what you want us to do? You think his wife really got that lock? Hell? Yeah, he got to explain the key.

Oh all right, coming up more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Right after this. You're listening to Steve Show, it is time for asked Steve. Here's a question from a listener. It says, Steve. I've been dating a guy for six months and we are both very involved in our church. Now, when we first met, I told him that I was practicing celible to see and he was okay with it. Now he is ready to have sex and I'm not. My friends tell me I'm stupid and I'm going to lose a good man. Am I really being stupid? Steve? Well, you're not being stupid, of course not. Those are your values and morals, and you you make decisions for your life what you think is the best. The majority of your friends is calling you stupid. Are they in a committed relationship? Are they married? You know? How do they know what's right for you? And what you decide to do is the right thing? That you and this dude go to the same church, and you both agreed. But now let's just have a real conversation here. It is easier to say you're gonna wait for marriage than it actually is to wait for marriage. Yes, it is, especially if you're dating on a regular basis. Yes, and especially if you've had sex bit foulk. Yes, hard to say no to that. What are we waiting? It ain't good when we get to Yeah, there's a use by date on it. Yeah. No, no, it's not. I'm sorry, y'all to stay out there, all right, more of this crazy ignorant show. Steve Harvey Morning Show.

All right? Coming up, last break of the day on this Friday. It's been a good day, it's been a good week. We'll be back with Steve and his closing remarks right after this at forty nine after the hour. You're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show. Here were our last break of today, Steve's closing remarks. What you got for Steve? Yeah, you know, always hopefully what these closing remarks are doing a kind of um, you know, just in encouraging people. Really, that's the whole thing. I've got a new thing that I'm gonna release. Uh it's called brain drops. I'm releasing a new thing that you can get online called brain drops. And what brain drops are are an abbreviated version of my closing remarks. But I'm gonna be releasing them every single day for people just out and about sometimes you know, you just you just need a little bit of some type of encouragement, some type of uplift throughout your day, and that's all it's intended to be. So be looking out for brain drops because I'm gonna be releasing those shortly. And so today it's just about success. You know, we talk about it a lot because those are the two things that I know that everybody wants. Everybody wants to be happy and everybody wants to be successful. Those two things. Most people I know want those things right there. And so with that in mind, you know, I just I want to just share this something really really brief with you about success. Three things I want you to keep in mind on your road to success. There are a lot more, but I pulled out these three poignant things that I want people to really expect when it comes to success, because I think some people go about success the wrong way. They go about success expecting the journey to be successful. That's not the way to go about it. The journey is going to be challenging. The journey is going to have setbacks, The journey is going to have disappointments. The goal is to become successful. But please don't expect the journey to be successful. Understand what the journey is. So let me give you three things. Number one, adversity. The road to success is filled with adversity. The entire time. You will be having to deal with adversity the entire time. There will be some smooth days for you, but the bulk of the days will have a challenge of adversity in front of you, hands down, without a doubt, no mistaking it. The second part of success that I want you all to understand is rejection. Rejection is a part of success. See when you go about success with the wrong attitude, thinking that all your steps are going to be successful. It's going to be very disappointing and disheartening for you. And in those disappointments and hardships and setbacks, you'll think, Wow, I'm not successful when you actually are. It's just the process of becoming successful. So rejection is a huge part of it. You're going to be told no on your way to yes. It's very rare that you just get yes, yes, yes, yes, No. You're going to be told no along the road to your yes. So expect to be rejected no, that it's not going to go your way. No, that everyone's not going to see your point, Know that everyone's not going to agree with you, and know that everybody's not gonna give it to you when you want it or even when you need it. Rejection is a huge part. So we got adversity and we got rejection. The third thing I want you to keep in mind to becoming successful are the sacrifices that are necessary. This is a hard one for a lot of people because sacrificing it's difficult. But in order to get what you want, you're gonna have to give up some things. That is the exchange. Anytime you want something, you're going to have to give something to get it. There is nothing that you can want in life and you just go get without giving something. If you want more people to shake your hand, let's say that's what you want. Guess what you're gonna have to do. You're gonna have to extend your hand to more people in life. You're going to have to give up something to get something. It's sacrifices. You've got to be very, very aware of the fact that something will always be required. Tired of you. You've all heard the scripture, to who much is given, much is required. Well, listen to this. The requirements are ongoing. If you want the giving to continue, if you don't want the giving part that God has for you, you're gonna have to give up the requirements because to who much is given, much is required. So you're gonna have to get real comfortable with the requirements because guess what, You've been given so many things. So every time you want something, that's going to be a requirement on your part. Those are the three things I want you to focus on and think about. And I don't want you to take it negatively, but just understand that's on your way to success. That's what it is. That's exactly what it is. Adversity, rejection, sacrifice. If you can get those three things mastered, you'll be successful. Most people are who are successful they've mastered that. Those are my clothes remarks. Drop it, baby, drop it, drop it, drop it.
