Miss Universe & Steve Harvey

I am reading a lot of statuses and messages with people wishing or proclaiming the end of Steve Harvey's career because of his mistake in the Miss Universe contest. 



If you haven't seen it he mistakenly said the first runner up was the winner. After a mixup he clarified the winner at the complete embarrassment to everyone involved. The first runner up was extremely embarrassed. The actual winner was floored. It was a bad moment for live television. (Link to Video is Below) 



I suppose we have a right to dislike whoever we want but why wish the end of his shows upon him?  Some say because he has oversaturated his brand. How dare he have two television shows and a radio show? How dare he have a book telling women how to behave in a relationship with men? How dare he act like he knows it all?  Who does he think he is. Some messages even said he's a know it all and I'll be glad when he's off the airwaves. 

I say if that's how you feel you should worry less about Steve Harvey and his brand and worry about your own. We must truly ask ourselves why wish failure on someone? I said it before and I will say it again. Grace is something we all want for ourselves but forget to ask for it towards others. We can't be so mean spirited. Maybe those people who say that must have forgotten what is was like when they made a mistakes. We need to check ourselves sometime before someone else or something else does. 

Steve messed up but his mistake is a blessing for the show. There are more people talking about the Miss Universe then who were watching the show, including me, and giving the show and the contestants new life and coverage. Some of the greatest things came out of "mistakes". Ever heard of Viagra?  A big mistake turned into a hugely profitable product. Or do some research on Sir Richard Branson, JK Roland, Steve Jobs or Abraham Lincoln. These are all people who used failure to turn into more success. Push on Steve I hope this moment means you push even higher.

Ultimately we need to remember don't wonder about the splinter in someone else's eye when we have a 2x4 plank hanging out of our own.
