Let Me Keep It 100 With You


If I could go back, I wouldn’t have blown my twenties, man.

I would’ve hit the gas. HARD. No brakes. No distractions. Just straight up chasing purpose, money, peace — all of it.

But see, what happens is, most of us spend our twenties out here wildin’ — partying, chasing the wrong folks, ignoring the signs. You waste that whole decade. Then your thirties hit and now you tryna play catch-up. By the time you get to your forties, you just now figuring out who you really supposed to be.

And when fifty rolls around? Man
 you sittin’ somewhere talkin’ ‘bout “Damn.”


Let Me Tell Y’all Somethin’…

It ain’t that you ain’t smart. You just didn’t know better. I didn’t either. I didn’t have nobody tellin’ me what I’m tellin’ you right now. I didn’t have the wisdom. I didn’t have the books. But once I got my hands on ‘em? Oh it was a wrap.

These books changed the entire trajectory of my life:

  • Think and Grow Rich — taught me success starts in the mind

  • The Bible — gave me foundation and favor

  • The Power of Positive Thinking — helped me kill that fear talk

  • Act Like a Success, Think Like a Success — I wrote this one after I got free


Here’s What I Need You to Hear…

You can’t keep playing small. You ain’t got that kinda time.

I don’t care if you 21 or 61 — you got breath, you got purpose. So stop sittin’ on your gift like it’s a bean bag. That dream you got? That calling on your life? That ain’t there for decoration. That’s God tellin’ you to move.

Put your foot on the gas.

And don’t you dare let fear hold the steering wheel.


Takeaways Straight from Uncle Steve:

  • You mess up your 20s, cool
 but don’t stay stuck there

  • The game don’t stop until you stop

  • Get you some wisdom — in a book, on your knees, through your mistakes

  • Regret ain’t a companion — it’s a warning sign

  • Go harder now so you ain’t whisperin’ “damn” at 50
