You're listening to the voice, Come on, dig me now,
one and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Well,
nothing changes about that. Nothing changes about that, man. I
was just getting ready to come on the air this morning.
I was just thinking, man, I was just having a
(02:26):
reflective moment of just how really good God has been
to me. I just it's it's it's man. Let me
just say that again, how really good God has been
to me. And here's a cold part. In spite of myself,
you understand that, in spite of all my shortcomings, in
(02:50):
spite of all of my flaws and and and and
in spite of all of what anybody has said about me, God,
through his grace and mercy, just keeps me anyway. So
many of us are exceptional people, But we refuse to
(03:13):
just go ahead and be exceptional. We settle for the ordinary.
We follow the pack, We try.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
To fit in.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
Man, oh man, oh man. You know I've heard my
wife say this to my children all the time. When
she's scolding him or talking to him. She'd be talking
to him about leadership. You know, why are you following
everybody when God clearly made you to lead?
Speaker 1 (03:38):
So many of us.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
Are born, and so many of you are born to
be exceptional people, but we always trying to follow the pack.
Why would you try to fit in? Why would you
try to be like everybody else be ordinary? Why would
you follow the pack when God has created you to
(04:00):
be exceptional? The key word in exceptional is except you.
Ever you ever dine this right here? You know, everybody
did that accept me. Everybody felt that way except me.
Everybody said that except me. Everybody won't wanted that accept me.
(04:22):
Everybody went over there except me. Everybody jumped in except
me except me. See why have you said that in
your life? If you were not to be exceptional? See
you got to say everybody except me at one point
in yo to I don't know who ain't done it?
(04:43):
You know, everybody wanted. Everybody voted no except me. See,
so you're not You're not created to follow the pack.
You ain't created to fit in. You ain't created to, uh,
you know, to be ordinary. You were created to be exceptional,
as exceptional as your fingerprint on your finger is. You
(05:04):
were created to be exceptional. Why not make this the
year that you go head on and be exceptional? Why
won't this be the year that you decide in your mind?
But just has to be a decision that we make.
Now we not following the pack no more. We not
trying to fit in no more. We ain't settling for
(05:25):
ordinary no more. We're gonna be exceptional. But you know
you got to go ahead and follow that. You got
to get on the exceptional path because that's what you
were created for.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Why be ordinary? You know?
Speaker 5 (05:37):
But all of this this comes It has to start
with a thought.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
You got to.
Speaker 5 (05:42):
First think something. Thoughts become things. A man is as
he thinketh that's all.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
You will ever be. So what are your thoughts today?
Speaker 5 (05:54):
Why not have exceptional thoughts instead of ordinary thoughts? Why
not have exceptional thoughts instead of fitting me in thoughts?
So why you want to be like everybody else? Why
you want to be ordinary when you could possibly be
extraordinary with a change of your mind, a change of
your venue, And you don't have to be any other
(06:14):
kind of way just because my mama was this, well,
my daddy was this way, or this the school I
went to?
Speaker 3 (06:20):
This?
Speaker 5 (06:20):
What race I belong to? This is my sexual preference,
this is my this? This is my dad?
Speaker 1 (06:26):
How many? How many? How many excuses you need? I mean,
I'm any excuse?
Speaker 4 (06:30):
What?
Speaker 1 (06:30):
What? What? What?
Speaker 5 (06:31):
What's it gonna be this year that we let another
three hundred and sixty five days slip by without improving
our condition, our place, our spot, our life, the quality
of life we have. We cannot afford to keep letting
all these years go by without changing.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
You're an exceptional person. How many times.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
Have you set up and said, everybody did that accept me?
You know I was only everybody jumped in except me.
I told him, I knew it. Everybody voted for that
except me, And now look at us, man, it seemed
like everybody went that way except me.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Okay, do you get it?
Speaker 5 (07:18):
Do you understand what's being said to you that all
accept me is because couldn't it be? Because you're an
exceptional person and It's time for you to take control
of that. It's time for you to start thinking different.
It's time for you to start acting on what you think.
It's time for you to start doing something about it.
It's time for you to stop taking each and every
(07:40):
day that God gives us for granted and letting them
go by the wayside.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Like you got plenty more.
Speaker 5 (07:46):
Well, you may have plenty more, but guess what what
you wasting the ones you got for?
Speaker 1 (07:52):
I got you.
Speaker 5 (07:53):
Young, and you feel like you're gonna live forever. Eh okay, cool,
But let me ask you something. See here go the
part about it. I suppose you do live. See see,
everybody worried about dying. But I got news for you.
Suppose you keep on living. You want to keep living
in the condition you in now. You want to keep
living with the money you got now. You want to
(08:13):
keep living with the relationship you got now. You want
to keep living by yourself like you are now. You
want to keep wanting the right relationship, the right man
to the right woman, but you keep getting the wrong one.
You want to keep doing that for the rest of
your life. Problem ain't dying. There's problem is if you
keep on living, who wants to keep on living just
the way they are right now.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
And if you can say I'm.
Speaker 5 (08:35):
Cool, what I am just the way I am right
now in cool, this conversation ain't for you. Ain't got
no problem with that, you know, you know what I say.
Greatness ain't for everybody. Being exceptional, ain't for everybody. Becoming extraordinary,
ain't for everybody. Heck, becoming successful ain't for everybody. I
got it. And you can come up with a way
(08:56):
to justify your non existence and your ordinary life all
you won't. And that's fine and dandy. I ain't got
no problem with it. Because some people just gonna be regular.
Some people just gonna follow the pack, follow the crowd.
Some people just wants to fit in. But if you're
not that person, if you want to be extraordinary, if
you want to be exceptional, if you want to be
(09:18):
if you want a dad to be great at something,
and you got to change your mindset. You got to
get what your creator and find out what he created
you for. You got to quit thinking of things just
in your own thought process, you know, lean not to
your own understanding.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
I don't know where that is, but it's in there somewhere,
seeing once.
Speaker 5 (09:36):
You lean, if you lean to your own understanding, you
know what it's gonna do. It's gonna limit you. Man,
it's gonna limit you. Why not see what God got
for you. I would rather know what God got for
me than to think of all the things I could
because I can't out think him out and tried it before.
All right, it's just the beginning. We're gonna have a
good one. Man, let's go.
