1
00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, what.

2
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:05,960
Speaker 2: Huh?

3
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:11,760
Speaker 1: You know what time it is? Showtime? Man? You know

4
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:15,080
Speaker 1: what I was thinking the other day about how it

5
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:17,319
Speaker 1: was as a little boy that I was growing up,

6
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:22,640
Speaker 1: we should put on shows in the basement, and I'd

7
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,119
Speaker 1: have a clothes line put up in the basement and

8
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 1: a sheet that was the backstage area. And I was

9
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 1: always trying to get my nephews and nieces to perform.

10
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:37,239
Speaker 1: They couldn't, and they were more aggravating to me than

11
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:41,879
Speaker 1: a little bit. So I took it upon myself to

12
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 1: introduce myself because y'all obviously don't have the glam and

13
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 1: what it takes to be in the limelight under this

14
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 1: light bulb in this basement down here. I don't know

15
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 1: how y'all for see yourself ever making it to the

16
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: big time and you can't perform under this one light

17
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 1: bulb in this basement. I look back on that and

18
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 1: I was hollering, laughing, because that little more with the

19
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 1: studying condition, messed around and made praise God all might

20
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: but doing the impossible, the unseeming. Here I go, Ladies

21
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 1: and gentlemen, Steve Harvey Morning Show, Shirley Strawberry calling for

22
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 1: real mouth of the South, Junior and your boy myself.

23
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 1: What's up junior?

24
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 2: Man? Uh, let's talk about this.

25
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 1: Man.

26
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,400
Speaker 2: You know something that we were talking about the other day.

27
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 2: But it's on your journey. When you're doing what you

28
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 2: feel like God has put you on here? Which one

29
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 2: is more important? Getting it right or getting started?

30
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 1: Well, I got to tell you something. If you don't

31
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: ever start, it's no way to get it right. I mean,

32
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 1: if you don't start, we're not finna get it right

33
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 1: or wrong. So I just implore people to start. You know,

34
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: you don't have to know how it's going to work

35
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: all the way out, because I have news for you.

36
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 1: Nobody does. If God had told all of you that

37
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 1: in order to get where you are today, and he

38
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 1: showed you a road mapple, every trial, tribulation, set back

39
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 1: that you'd have to go through to get there, all

40
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 1: of us would want something else. I don't care where

41
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 1: we are. I know I would have had he showed

42
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,239
Speaker 1: it too, Ma in the beginning, I'd have said, hold on,

43
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 1: hold on, Lord. In twenty fifteen, can we skip that?

44
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,919
Speaker 1: And in two thousand and five, can we skip that?

45
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 1: In two thousand can we let that one go? And

46
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,080
Speaker 1: I'd love to go back to nineteen ninety six. Could

47
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 1: we not do that? Before we get to ninety six?

48
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 1: Could we not do that? Yeah? Yeah, oh I remember

49
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 1: some years. Oh yeah, But if he had showed us that,

50
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 1: we wouldn't ever, we wouldn't you where we are? So

51
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:05,399
Speaker 1: starting is the key. Yeah, it's the whole key to everything.

52
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 1: But you have to remember even started off said this

53
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 1: a million times, but it bears repeating. When you fail,

54
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 1: that doesn't just failure is not any listen to this.

55
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 1: Failure is not a person. Failure is an event. Don't

56
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 1: let any event describe who you are as a person.

57
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 2: Come on, what an

58
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 1: All right, you're listening hard morning show
