Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, guys, here we are our last break of
the day on this Thursday. This week is rolling by.
First I thought it was slow, now it's getting fast.
But it's been a good day. It's been a good day,
all right, Steve.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
You know, I guess I'm gonna kind of stay in
the mode of motivation because I want to inspire people
because you know, look, I think so many people can
get so discouraged by so many different things. I mean,
(00:38):
you know, for some it seems like bigger items than others.
But you know, it's all in perspective. It all depends
on the amount of experience you have in life, on
how well you handle setbacks and trials and tribulations.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
So it's all relative.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
When you see a person that's thinking about giving up
for a lesser reason than you would, it doesn't make
that reason not valid.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
It's very valid.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
It's just they may not have the experience with grapping
or coping with situations like you. But I want to
say something to everybody that's on their road to success.
It is a tough road. It is a tough road.
It is a difficult journey. It is not easy to
(01:26):
become successful. It's just not and I think when people
start running up into those obstacles, it's easy to say, Wow,
this is really hard and give up and quit.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
But I want to tell you something.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
See, whenever God is about to do something great for you,
I've found that in those moments, the devil is also
aware of your future too. He sees when God is
doing great things in your life, and he sees when
(02:03):
God is blessing you. His job is to rob you
of that destiny to get to where God has.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Ordained or planned for you to be.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
So what he does is when he looks into your
future and he sees that God is about to do
something big for you, he throws at you the opposition.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
Have you noticed.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
That it comes from people you thought you were cool
with that, It comes from people that you've done so
much for that it comes out of the side, out
of the bushes, almost out of a dark hallway. You
just gonna where it that come from? Why they tripping?
After all I did? It always seems like it comes
(02:51):
out of nowhere, Because that's one of the devil's best tricks.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
He tries to blindside you with it.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
And the more hurtful he can be towards you, the
more or he can throw you off the course. So
he presents, of course, people that you know, you care about,
that you thought was your friends, that you thought was
all right with you.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
And it comes from that. Ain't go right there.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
What I'm saying is, on this journey to success, be
prepared for opposition, because it's going to come. It is
a part of the process. None of us will get
to where we want to be in life without going
through the process. Now you know how you hear motivational
speakers talking and you hear the audience member go oh,
(03:33):
that's good, that's good, that's good, and they start writing
on a Oh I like that, or the preacher be
talking and go oh, that's good, that's good, that's good,
that's good. You know, people get inspired by that. I
guess I'm the same way as anybody else. But when
I talk to people about success, I try to make
it instead of good, I try to make it understandable.
(03:54):
I try to get you to grab this thing that
I'm talking to you about in the simplest form of
fashion so you can move on with it. I'm just
saying this to you as plain as I can. On
your road to success, the devil go throw the obstacles
at you. Every time something good is coming your way,
they got to throw something bad at your way. Something's
(04:14):
happening in my life right now, to try to throw
out my progress.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
But I'm aware of it.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
That that don't mean that that's that's easy, And it
doesn't mean that because I'm aware of it, I know
how to cope with it better I do.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
But it still bothers me.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
It still bothers me to somebody that I did so
much for can turn so easily because they see a
buck and they can turn. But you know what I've
also learned about this road to success. God don't put
more on you than you can bath. Do you know
sometimes that you're going through stuff not only to show
(04:51):
you something, but to teach the person that's around you
a lesson too? Do you know that God uses your
strength to teach the weaker or the evil a lesson
through you.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Have you ever noticed that? I don't know if you have.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
That's a hard one to come to the realization that
you're going through something and you're not enjoying it, but
it's gonna teach that person that's trying to do something
to you.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
They fin to learn a real valuable lesson. It's gonna
cost you.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
A little bit, but God, I already know you got
to strength to handle it because he'd have done so
many things with you and for you throughout the years.
He knows you can handle it, so he allows things
to happen to you. But he's also gonna show that
person that's trying to do you, he gonna show him something,
he gonna teach him a valuable lesson. You're just a
vessel to get it done, but you're used that way
(05:42):
because you're strong enough. So in this case, I have
to remember that about myself, but I also want you
to remember it about yourself that you are strong that
everything you've ever gone through, every hardship, every struggling moment.
Like I always say, your track record for surviving hardship
and struggling moments, your track record for surviving that is
(06:03):
one percent. That's pretty good track record, y'all. So all
you got to do is keep on waking up, keep
on believing, keep on praying, keep on working, and you're
gonna get through that too, just like me. And at
the end of the day, the person is trying to
do you the most harm, be careful when you dig
a grade. You might have to dig too. Oh, you
might end up in that hole yourself. You got to
(06:26):
be careful, remember that God. Have a great day God.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
No, y'all talk to God and love to get from you.
You'll see y'all. Mall, y'all stay heaven, State Trash, stay
big sen the.
