The Apollo Story | Motivated +

In 1991 I was sleeping in my car, I had $35 to my name, everything I had could fit into two bags. I started talking to God about my dreams... Fast forward, out of nowhere I get a call from the Apollo asking me to come on the show. That same night I met D.L. Hughley, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, and Jamie Foxx for the first time. We were all comedians that went on that night. This is my Apollo story and how I became the host. This was my turnback moment.

Everybody has a turn back moment, it's the moment you can either go forward or give everything up. There's one guarantee if you give up it will never happen. Faith is everything, God is always on time, he's never too late.

Bro I remember when this video first came out.. I was struggling with school, getting arrested, wrecked my car, and struggling with addiction. Now I have two degrees, drive 18 wheelers around the world, haven’t had a drink in 9 months. These videos really helped me get through the worse time of my life

Love how he said, 'none of of us are famous'.

Now that's what you call work ethic ❤️

I am listening to this driving down the street and I am crying because I have been trying to live my dream for so long and I am so low. Thank you for this inspiration. In 1991 I was watching when you did that show at the Apollo theater. I will never forget it. I will never give up!

Hi all, I am 63 years old, I had just about given up on life when I came across this video, all I can say now is PRAISE GOD and thank you for this video.

I think the first time I saw Steve on TV was him hosting Showtime at the Apollo. This was late late night on NBC back in 1998 after SNL. Look how far this brother has gone.

This man makes me feel like anything is possible! Thank you, Steve, for letting the Lord use you to tell your story of never giving up. 🙏🏽

And this is what you call a testimony! The perfect example of what God can do, when you can say...I don't have the answers, but let me tell you what God has done for me. I've seen this video several times of Steve Harvey and it gets me everytime. Such an inspiration to keep going and never give up. Congratulations on all your success Steve.

My eyes got teary when he was speaking about the anxiety he felt when he was offered that gig and didn't have the money to fly. I've been there. I still have my shoes I used to walk in, just to always remind me of those times. Life is a battle.
