God has blessed you to be here. 5 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:27,160 Speaker 1: You are in the moment, you got the shot. Let's 6 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 1: do something about it today. Start with gratitude, everybody, because 7 00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:35,240 Speaker 1: gratitude affects your altitude. No, gratitude affects your attitude, which 8 00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:39,159 Speaker 1: is in direct correlation to your altitude. So get your 9 00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:43,240 Speaker 1: mind right. God is good. Know that Shirley Strawberry called 10 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:47,159 Speaker 1: for real Mississippi Monica Junior and the legend of Nephew 11 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 1: Tomma Junior Dog. What is on your mind this O? 12 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 2: Can you talk this about the power of telling your story? Now, 13 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 2: you tell your story about being homeless, about being from everything, 14 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 2: by how I brought you from the beginning to the end. 15 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 2: You make that your story. You tell everybody that story. 16 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 2: What the power everybody telling the story? We all got one. 17 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 1: Well, the power I think for me in telling my 18 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: story has been authenticity. It's just being truthful about what 19 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,320 Speaker 1: it was. The problem we have right now is there 20 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 1: are too many successful people who won't tell their real story. 21 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 1: The sad part is we have too many people who 22 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: get where they want to be and then they forget 23 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 1: where they was, and they forget how they got there, 24 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: and they don't have a story for you. So now 25 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 1: your aid to other people is diminished because you won't 26 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 1: tell them. See look, man, look if you go write 27 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: a book about your life, and if you're gonna write 28 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: a book called I'm Rich and Famous, but in that 29 00:01:55,680 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: book you don't tell nobody how to get rich or famous? 30 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 1: How many copies do that you think you could sell? 31 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:13,080 Speaker 1: Nobody can about No man, what about me? And that's 32 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: why you have That's why you have what do you 33 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 1: call it test? That's why you have tests in life 34 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 1: so you can have a testimony. See, there is no 35 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 1: testimony without the test. And so that's the power in 36 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 1: sharing your story is telling them the test that you 37 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: had to pass and overcome to get to where you are, 38 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:46,959 Speaker 1: so it can inspire other people. I mean, that's your job. 39 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 1: God blesses you become a blessing. Huh I said I 40 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: didn't have some tests? Yeah, man, So it ain't no 41 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: problem with sharing it. The problem I see a lot 42 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 1: of people who get there They want to act like 43 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: it never happened. They don't want to mention that part. 44 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: They keep bringing up the sunny days.
