Don't get interested in my field.

No really, get interested in your gift.

It doesn't matter what somebody else does.

To find your way in life is not an external search, it's an internal search.

Because God equipped you the moment he gave birth to you.

God equipped you at birth with what you needed.

He gave all of you a gift gift all of you

every last one of you you're gifted God never created a

soul without giving them a gift all of you sitting in

here were given a gift at birth he put it inside

you you ain't got to look under the ocean it ain't

on a mountain it ain't nothing no rocks he put it

in you at birth he gave you a gift it is the thing

that you do the absolute best with the least amount of

effort that's your God-given gift that's the thing you should pursue

the Scripture says your gift will make room for you and put you in the presence of important men.

That's what your gift will do for you.

Everything else you're doing has nothing to do with what God created you for.

And if you're unhappy with your life, if you haven't figured your life out, if you're thinking there's more to your life than it is,

it's because the only reason you have that question is because you're not living in your gift.

Once you discover your gift, there lies your greatest chance for success.

That's what God gave you, equipped you with.

You just gotta quit looking at gifts as running, jumping, singing, and dancing.

Babysitting is a gift.

If you're a smart student, smart is a gift.

If people come to your house in your kitchen to get their hair done instead of going to a salon, you do hair, that's your gift.

If they can't have a bake sale without your pies and cakes, you bake pies and cakes better than everybody, then that's your gift.

You bake pies and cakes.

That's your gift.

You don't have to think about it.

That's what you do.

Quit trying to do what somebody else is doing because that ain't your life.

You don't even want to come the way I would.

If you knew the path I took to get here, you would not.

If I knew the path I was gonna have to take to get here, I would have changed my destiny a long time ago.

Cause there's no way I would have wanted to have gone

through what I went through to get to where I am today.

That's why God don't reveal it to you.

See, God never reveals the path to you.

He shows you what it could look like, but he don't show you the route.

Cause if he showed you the route, you'll turn around.

Everybody would quit.

If you knew what you had to go through to get to where he had for you to go, you would all quit.

I would quit too.

It's no way I would have had a stuttering problem.

It's no way I would have lived in a car for three years.

It's no way if I'd have knew that when I quit my job to do comedy, what was gonna happen to me, I would have never quit my job.

But he don't show you that.

He just let you have the dream.

And if you're bold enough to chase the dream, he'll get you through the journey.

You just can't quit in the middle of the journey Cause he know you chasing dreams.

God didn't make your dream come true business.

That's real talk.

I kid you not.

You looking at somebody living his dream cause God made it happen for him.

That's real.

I'm 20 years old.

October 8th, 1985, Hilarity's Comedy Club.

Walked in the comedy club, first time in my life.

Won amateur night, $50.

Drove 40 minutes home, cried all the way home.

This girl I wrote with, she said, why you crying? crying and it ain't been $50?

She said, you don't even understand.

I'm born.

She said, what you mean you born?

I said, I know what I'm gonna do the rest of my life.

She said, you ain't winning but $50.

No, I've been praying my whole life, God, what is it?

My life gotta be more than this.

I won that comedy competition.

I went to work October 9th, the next morning, and quit my job.

I'm gonna tell you something.

That decision cost me everything I had.

I lost everything.

I lost my family.

I lost friends.

I lost everything.

I became homeless.

I lived in a car for three years.

But I just saw this.

I saw this.

I saw this vision.

I just pursued it.

I said, wow, that's it.

You have to take chances in life.

If you don't take chances in life, you'll never have the life God has for you.

Life is about risk.

If you play it safe in life, you ain't going to have much of a life.

If you play it safe, you won't have much of a life.

Life is risk.

It takes courage to pursue your dream.

I just did it.

It cost me everything but eventually God is very good, man, when he sees you take a leap of faith.

He supplies you everything you need.

Now, it's going to cost you something, but most people are not willing to pay what it costs to go after your dream

because you're going to have to hurt a little bit.

And most people don't like being uncomfortable.

If you don't want to be uncomfortable, please do not pursue success because success is a very uncomfortable feeling.

and I just learned to be, I learned to be comfortable being uncomfortable.

100

If you can get that in your head, this too shall pass.

101

Every moment of, everything you've ever gone through, God got you through it.

102

You didn't even realize it.

103

He just got you through it.

104

You can't name one thing he didn't pull you through.

105

Well, I lost my mother.

106

I'm still grieving over that.

107

I lost my mama 21 years ago.

108

I still grieve over it, but I'm here.

109

You know, I got through it.

110

You gonna get through it.

111

But you gotta take chance in life, man.

112

Can't play it safe, y'all.

113

You gotta jump, you gotta go for it.

114

God has an incredible life for you.

115

He really does.

116

But you ain't gonna get there if you give up.

117

You can't get to what God got for you if you stop.

118

You can't get to what God got for you if you're afraid.

119

Now I know taking chances is kinda fretful.

120

But the best things in life is on the other side of fear.

121

But one of the things

122

that I've always done to help overcome my fears is I make my dreams bigger than all my fears.

123

I have dreams that's so big that not getting there is just unacceptable.

124

It doesn't make any sense for you not to have the life that you dream of.

125

It does not make any sense.

126

God really does want to use you as an example of what he can do.

127

You just got to volunteer.

128

But you got to be willing to go through something to get to it.

129

Success ain't free.

130

They ain't passing out money, man.

131

Anybody sending none to your house, that ain't how this works.

132

You got to go get it.

133

But in order to go get it, you got to want something.

134

You got to have vision boards.

135

You got to have stuff you dream about.

136

You got to have this stuff written down.

137

That being successful is not an accident.

138

Hey, man, stop thinking, man, that your life is over because you're a certain age.

139

Who are you to determine?

140

You know what I can't stand when I hear Christians say, well, I guess it was the Lord's will.

141

If it was the Lord's will, I would have had some money by now.

142

No, no, no, you can't dump that on God.

143

God's will is that you prosper.

144

That's his will.

145

Now the fact that you done made some adverse decisions to stop your prosperity train from happening, don't dump that on him.

146

God comes to give you life and give you life more abundantly.

147

That's what he say.

148

Well, then the question is, where you abundant at?

149

You're going down to church, you're memorizing all these scriptures.

150

Why don't you apply some of them?

151

He come to give you life and give you life more abundantly.

152

God got a great life for you, man, but you got to want something.

153

You got to want it, you got to write it down.

154

Most people don't have what they want in life because it ain't written down nowhere.

155

But you go to church, you done heard that scripture, but I guess you thought they wasn't talking to you.

156

Habakkuk 2 and 2 says, you must write the vision and make it plain so that he who reads it will run to it.

157

And even though it tarry, that means take a long time.

158

Wait for it, for surely it will come at an appointed time.

159

That's the scripture.

160

That's a scripture.

161

This ain't no philosophy.

162

This a fact.

163

What you waiting on?

164

Write it down.

165

Put some faith on it.

166

And then get ready to go to work.

167

You can believe in God all you want, but if you don't work, man, it ain't going to happen.

168

Because he told you that, though.

169

He said faith without works is dead.

170

I'm just asking you, man, to try something new.

171

If you've tried everything, it ain't worked for you.

172

I'm just asking you, just try writing it down.

173

Just try writing it down.

174

Go home and read Habakkuk 2 and 2 and see if you don't get the feeling he's talking to you.

175

After you write it down, I want you to put some faith on it.

176

When you put some faith on it, I want you to work for it.

177

I want you to believe in your heart that you will have it.

178

Now you might not want this life.

179

You might not want what it take to get here But

180

if you want this life you got to put in your work

181

You got to put it in you got to stay prayerful.

182

You got to never give up You got to talk God every day now if

183

that ain't what you want to do then good luck You

184

keep doing what you've been doing you're gonna keep getting what you've been going getting I would try something else

185

if I was y'all

186

All I ever asked God for Was to let me eat Let me sit at the table with the big boys.

187

Take me from this homelessness that I'm in and fill my coffers with spoils.

188

You know how much I have today?

189

I have more than I ever thought I'd ever have.

190

I got more.

191

God didn't gave me more than I asked for because he got this thing he has called grace.

192

Grace is, I wish I could buy it.

193

You know, I wish I could buy grace, man.

194

I was playing golf with an old guy that owns the Mayo Clinics.

195

The Mayo Clinics.

196

You know how much money you got to have to own all of them?

197

I'm playing golf with this guy and he taught me something.

198

He said, Steve, listen to this.

199

You seem like a spiritual guy.

200

I want to share something with you.

201

He said, justice is when you get what you deserve.

202

Mercy is when you don't get what you deserve.

203

He said, but grace is different from both of them.

204

Grace is when you get what you don't deserve.

205

Do you understand that?

206

God has this thing that he passes out called grace.

207

You ever heard old people say, all I want is a little more grace? Because guess what?

208

He passes it out, and he gives you things you don't deserve.

209

I do not deserve this life I have.

210

I'm just telling you flat out.

211

The money I make, where I live, what I drive, how I travel, how I vacation, I don't deserve it.

212

I work really hard, but I really don't deserve all this.

213

I don't.

214

I ain't that good a Christian.

215

I'm telling you flat out, I don't deserve it.

216

But he gave me grace.

217

He let me survive homelessness.

218

He bought me from dark, man.

219

I've been out, y'all don't know.

220

I've been in it, man.

221

I'm so grateful that God let me have this life he gave me that I don't even know what to do.

222

Do you know when I was homeless, I told God every day, if you let me make it, when I get there, I'm gonna tell everybody it was you.

223

Well, guess what?

224

I'm telling you. That it was him.

225

I have no education.

226

I ain't got a degree of any kind.

227

What you see today is a boy

228

that come out the bottom who believed in him when it wasn't no sign of me getting over,

229

who kept doing this thing that his mother taught him.

230

She said when it get dark for you and you can't find your way.

231

And boy I was lost.

232

She said don't forget to pray.

233

Don't be ashamed to pray.

234

And don't ever be too proud to pray.

235

Because prayer, prayer changes things.

236

You have got to pray.

237

You know what you ought to get?

238

You ought to create your relationship with God.

239

because if you do that, he gonna put some grace on you and he gonna give you some things you don't deserve.

240

Then you won't need no education.

241

You won't need to go and complete the program no more.

242

You ain't got to go over here and ask nobody where they hide you.

243

God takes you to places that you never ever thought you'd go.

244

I never saw myself here, but that God I serve, he saw me here and he put me here.

245

Now all I'm doing right now is telling you that with God you can make it.

246

I don't know why he had you come to this show.

247

I don't know why I'm telling it to you like this today.

248

But if you ain't ever tried God, listen to me.

249

You should try him.

250

Because he's very available to you right now.

251

He don't love me no more than he love you.

252

If God can pick me up, and you have no idea who you really looking at, you don't know what I've done.

253

If God can change me, he change anybody in this room.

254

God is good, man.

255

Give God a chance.

256

I appreciate y'all coming.

257

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
