Change works 100% of the time.
It’s either working for you or against you — but it’s never not working.
In this episode, I am breaking down the truth about change: it never stops and never takes a day off.
The problem isn’t that change isn’t happening — it’s that most people stop working with it. They quit right before the tipping point, when all their unseen effort is about to pay off.
You’ll learn how to recognize when change is silently shaping your life, how to flip it to work in your favor, and how to rebuild trust with yourself through small, consistent commitments.
I will walk you through the five areas where change shows up every day — faith, family, fitness, finances, and fulfillment — and show you how to start with one and let that momentum spill over into the others.
This episode will challenge you to ask:
👉 Am I changing… or am I being changed?
Because remember — change never takes a day off, so neither can you.
Keep it simple. Keep it moving. Never settle. Stay tough. Peace.

Keep it simple. Keep it moving. Never settle. Stay tough.
00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:04.689
Change works a hundred percent of the time.
00:00:05.689 --> 00:00:06.229
It does.
00:00:07.038 --> 00:00:14.718
But change is either working for you or against you, but it's never not working.
00:00:15.410 --> 00:00:18.199
Change never takes the day off.
00:00:19.039 --> 00:00:21.978
That's what today's episode is all about.
00:00:22.849 --> 00:00:24.949
Change the kind that.
00:00:25.564 --> 00:00:28.265
Either builds you or breaks you.
00:00:29.265 --> 00:00:33.015
That kind is always there, whether you pay attention to it or not.
00:00:33.375 --> 00:00:39.104
And more importantly, the kind that test your faith when you can't see the results yet.
00:00:40.484 --> 00:00:42.399
Change doesn't wait for you to get ready.
00:00:43.390 --> 00:00:45.039
It doesn't ask for your permission.
00:00:45.609 --> 00:00:53.875
It's happening right now, quietly, subtly, constantly, every day.
00:00:54.503 --> 00:01:03.804
You're either consciously feeding change that aligns with the person that you wanna become, or you're being unconsciously changed by what you allow.
00:01:05.064 --> 00:01:08.155
Acceptance equals exceptions.
00:01:09.010 --> 00:01:23.480
The little acceptance, just this once become these tiny incisions of exceptions and your death of success comes by a thousand cuts.
00:01:24.480 --> 00:01:43.649
And most of us don't realize it, sadly, until it's too late because we've been making these small concessions, like skipping a workout, giving into the cravings, putting off the work, coming in a little later, leaving a little earlier, ignoring the signs.
00:01:43.739 --> 00:01:48.569
And little by little these yeses add up.
00:01:49.484 --> 00:01:59.174
This is when the, all of the sudden's, all of the sudden your world came down on you and you sober up and you're like, oh my God, what happened?
00:02:00.795 --> 00:02:01.814
You know what happened?
00:02:02.745 --> 00:02:06.805
Change kept on working, but you just stopped working with it.
00:02:07.804 --> 00:02:12.604
But here's the thing, just because you can't see change doesn't mean change isn't happening.
00:02:12.704 --> 00:02:19.424
Things are happening that even though you can't see the results, there are things that are shaping up inside of you.
00:02:19.844 --> 00:02:23.414
Your confidence is building, your discipline is compounding.
00:02:24.179 --> 00:02:25.438
And everything is happening.
00:02:25.438 --> 00:02:29.098
A lot of things are happening just beneath the surface.
00:02:29.848 --> 00:02:51.688
And this is where most people quit right before they reach that tipping point, right before all of the work they've been putting in manifest into tangible results, It's not that like when people quit, it's not that it's not that change wasn't working, it's that you truthfully just lost belief.
00:02:52.468 --> 00:02:59.159
You gave up on your timeline because your results didn't match your expectation.
00:02:59.639 --> 00:03:05.008
This is why until it needs to be your timeframe, like seriously, like how much longer until.
00:03:06.628 --> 00:03:08.789
Because change works a hundred percent of the time.
00:03:09.508 --> 00:03:12.058
You just don't know when that time's gonna come.
00:03:12.838 --> 00:03:20.340
This is why you need to faithfully put in the effort and doing so forges those commitments.
00:03:20.878 --> 00:03:27.840
See, when you start keeping commitments to yourself, even the small ones, you can keep commitments to others as well.
00:03:28.409 --> 00:03:35.069
You strengthen your mindset, your independence, you create your freedom, and then you start to trust yourself Again.
00:03:35.580 --> 00:03:36.210
Think about that.
00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:49.049
Like a lot of times the reason why we like start over, continuously start over, or turn devices or sabotage our own, you know, happiness in our life.
00:03:49.590 --> 00:03:53.849
It's because deep down inside, and maybe you don't even know what to call it.
00:03:54.554 --> 00:03:56.144
You just lost trust in yourself.
00:03:56.443 --> 00:04:15.114
These broken commitments, these broken promises, the, you know, if thens all of these things, it's just like your, your body intrinsically is like, your body internally is just like, So there becomes this, this cognitive dissonance, this separation.
00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:20.829
Between the person who you want to be and the person you really are.
00:04:21.579 --> 00:04:23.620
I, I know this firsthand, I get it.
00:04:24.619 --> 00:04:39.079
But see, when you're the one instituting change, instead of allowing circumstances or emotions to change you, this is how you get back on top of things like in certain moments.
00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:55.649
Just ask yourself, if I played this day out, like if I played this moment out every day for the rest of my life, is this action going to lead to knowing that change works a hundred percent of the time?
00:04:56.490 --> 00:05:00.120
Will this change the trajectory for success or failure?
00:05:01.410 --> 00:05:03.000
Will it be productive or destructive?
00:05:03.540 --> 00:05:06.300
Will it make me stronger or weaker?
00:05:07.300 --> 00:05:11.980
Would it help me or hurt me, and also the people around me.
00:05:12.980 --> 00:05:20.165
That's how you measure whether you're consciously changing or unconsciously being changed.
00:05:21.165 --> 00:05:34.875
See, when you stand up against the easy yeses, the cravings, the excuses, the, I'll start over on Monday at the first of the month, at the first of the year.
00:05:35.625 --> 00:05:44.084
See when you stand up against those things, the bullshit excuses that you make, you take control of change.
00:05:44.819 --> 00:05:46.889
Remember, change works a hundred percent of the time.
00:05:46.889 --> 00:05:48.988
It's either working for you or working against you.
00:05:48.988 --> 00:05:52.189
It's never gonna work for you if you're not the one pushing for change.
00:05:53.189 --> 00:05:57.658
So at first, the yeses are easy.
00:05:58.559 --> 00:06:02.218
The little tiny concessions that are saboteurs to your success.
00:06:02.399 --> 00:06:05.699
The yeses are easy at first, and the nos are hard.
00:06:05.699 --> 00:06:08.519
Like, no, I can't, no, I can't go out with y'all.
00:06:08.788 --> 00:06:10.798
No, I'm gonna pass on these meals.
00:06:11.158 --> 00:06:13.918
No, I'm gonna pass on the, on the fried food.
00:06:14.579 --> 00:06:25.738
Uh, those, those are, those are like hard at first, but the more you stand up to those, just-this-onces these small concessions, you just stand up.
00:06:26.113 --> 00:06:29.774
To the yeses, reinforce it with no man, I appreciate it though.
00:06:30.223 --> 00:06:31.603
And you just change the environment.
00:06:31.603 --> 00:06:37.903
When you stand up to these things, you catch that rhythm and bro, everything begins to change for you.
00:06:38.923 --> 00:06:46.483
Saying no actually gets easier and saying yes to the saboteurs of success.
00:06:46.483 --> 00:06:47.954
'cause you see it for what it is.
00:06:49.423 --> 00:06:50.834
Well those actually become harder.
00:06:51.384 --> 00:06:53.394
That's no longer when you're being changed.
00:06:54.413 --> 00:06:55.434
You are the change.
00:06:56.843 --> 00:07:05.274
Change is ever present in your faith, in your family, in your fitness, in your finances, in your fulfillment.
00:07:06.274 --> 00:07:08.105
And you don't have to overhaul everything at once.
00:07:08.105 --> 00:07:13.564
Like look at all, all five areas of your life, your faith, your family, fitness, finances, fulfillment.
00:07:14.464 --> 00:07:18.095
You may be like bombing in all of them, okay?
00:07:18.245 --> 00:07:19.685
You don't have to change all of 'em at once.
00:07:19.923 --> 00:07:25.235
'cause what's gonna happen is you change one, it starts to change the other.
00:07:25.324 --> 00:07:26.584
That's what's beautiful about this.
00:07:26.584 --> 00:07:30.904
So you can transfer your wins, you can leverage those wins over.
00:07:31.235 --> 00:07:34.144
But first, bro, you gotta win in one area.
00:07:34.625 --> 00:07:36.725
What is that first thing that comes to mind?
00:07:36.725 --> 00:07:38.404
What's the first thing you wanna change?
00:07:39.860 --> 00:07:41.240
Do you wanna strengthen your faith?
00:07:41.839 --> 00:07:44.178
Is your family kind of just wonky?
00:07:45.178 --> 00:07:47.968
Like are you just hiding your burying yourself at work?
00:07:48.418 --> 00:07:51.749
'cause you don't wanna deal with any issues, man, start dealing with these things.
00:07:51.959 --> 00:07:55.978
Change doesn't happen all at once, but change does happen once all the time.
00:07:56.978 --> 00:07:58.029
You didn't get here overnight.
00:07:58.509 --> 00:08:01.478
You're not gonna get out of it overnight, but you will over time.
00:08:02.468 --> 00:08:06.519
Until as my timeframe change is always working for you against you.
00:08:07.478 --> 00:08:09.728
So is it your family?
00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:11.259
Is it your finances?
00:08:11.798 --> 00:08:13.869
Did you just kind of pacify yourself?
00:08:14.499 --> 00:08:15.608
Extra spending?
00:08:15.668 --> 00:08:17.319
Put yourself behind the eight ball.
00:08:17.348 --> 00:08:17.798
Okay?
00:08:18.038 --> 00:08:19.088
You can work out of it.
00:08:19.538 --> 00:08:20.559
Everything's fixable.
00:08:22.029 --> 00:08:22.959
And your fitness.
00:08:24.098 --> 00:08:25.658
Just get back into it, man.
00:08:25.750 --> 00:08:26.978
Like know yourself.
00:08:26.978 --> 00:08:30.189
Like if you're early morning, you can always hit it no matter what.
00:08:30.189 --> 00:08:30.908
Early in the morning.
00:08:30.908 --> 00:08:32.708
That's what it is for me in the evening.
00:08:32.708 --> 00:08:34.029
Like, I'm gonna work out tonight.
00:08:34.029 --> 00:08:34.538
No, I'm not.
00:08:34.629 --> 00:08:36.250
I know I'm not Know yourself.
00:08:36.610 --> 00:08:36.879
Okay?
00:08:37.058 --> 00:08:39.578
You may not be a morning person, but bro, you can.
00:08:39.818 --> 00:08:42.099
You just like come alive at night.
00:08:42.219 --> 00:08:42.458
Okay?
00:08:42.458 --> 00:08:44.919
If that works for you, that works for you, then do that.
00:08:45.639 --> 00:08:49.059
Or your fulfillment both professionally and creatively like.
00:08:49.673 --> 00:08:53.183
What are, what did, what's happening creatively?
00:08:53.183 --> 00:08:57.203
What are the things creative, like the podcast for me is like a creative outlet.
00:08:57.504 --> 00:08:57.833
Okay.
00:08:57.953 --> 00:09:00.323
Writing, reading, it overlaps.
00:09:00.323 --> 00:09:05.333
It helps me professionally in my fulfillment, but it also serves a creative element too.
00:09:05.994 --> 00:09:11.453
But maybe you have something creative that has nothing to do with what you do professionally.
00:09:11.754 --> 00:09:18.389
It does though, because you have a sense of accomplishment and you're able to, creativity is like a muscle.
00:09:19.119 --> 00:09:19.899
It is.
00:09:20.078 --> 00:09:24.339
And so the, the, the more it, it's never that I'm not creative.
00:09:24.578 --> 00:09:27.458
No, you're not doing creative things.
00:09:27.578 --> 00:09:28.778
We're all creative.
00:09:28.808 --> 00:09:30.158
You've just gotten away from it.
00:09:30.489 --> 00:09:32.469
So is in your fulfillment.
00:09:32.769 --> 00:09:33.788
Creatively.
00:09:33.908 --> 00:09:34.719
What is that outlet?
00:09:34.719 --> 00:09:35.438
What's the thing, man?
00:09:35.438 --> 00:09:37.298
Like, don't try to make money off of it.
00:09:37.303 --> 00:09:38.109
That's the first thing people say.
00:09:38.379 --> 00:09:40.629
What kinda money you make off doing podcasting?
00:09:40.928 --> 00:09:42.489
I did it first and foremost for me.
00:09:43.089 --> 00:09:43.389
Okay.
00:09:44.499 --> 00:09:50.139
The, I did, uh, the, the, the monetary means that, that's just, that's just bonus.
00:09:50.469 --> 00:09:51.369
That's just laying up.
00:09:51.428 --> 00:09:54.249
I would, I would do it for free for the rest of my life.
00:09:55.178 --> 00:09:55.509
Okay.
00:09:55.899 --> 00:09:58.509
I would So what is that thing for you?
00:09:58.509 --> 00:10:01.658
Don't try to monetize this thing right now and then.
00:10:02.543 --> 00:10:05.153
Professionally, like what's the professional fulfillment?
00:10:05.903 --> 00:10:07.793
Okay, so what in all you?
00:10:07.793 --> 00:10:10.524
You, you can't tackle all those all at all at ones.
00:10:10.793 --> 00:10:11.184
Okay?
00:10:11.333 --> 00:10:13.344
What is the one that first pops up to mind?
00:10:13.913 --> 00:10:15.144
Probably your fitness.
00:10:15.354 --> 00:10:16.823
Probably your finances.
00:10:16.943 --> 00:10:19.193
It's one of those two usually is the common one.
00:10:19.374 --> 00:10:23.514
If that's the one, start on that one and just chip away at it, man.
00:10:23.543 --> 00:10:28.193
Are you being changed or are you the one instituting change?
00:10:28.374 --> 00:10:28.793
All right.
00:10:29.793 --> 00:10:33.214
Remember, change works a hundred percent of the time.
00:10:33.663 --> 00:10:34.083
Alright?
00:10:34.234 --> 00:10:35.884
Change never takes a day off.
00:10:36.514 --> 00:10:38.403
So you can't take a day off either.
00:10:38.673 --> 00:10:40.384
Change is never not present.
00:10:40.594 --> 00:10:41.734
Well, I'm just change.
00:10:41.734 --> 00:10:42.033
Never.
00:10:42.033 --> 00:10:44.583
Just is like, Hey, I'm gonna see you next Monday.
00:10:44.614 --> 00:10:45.693
No change.
00:10:46.053 --> 00:10:47.043
Change is there.
00:10:47.224 --> 00:10:48.244
Change is happening.
00:10:48.364 --> 00:10:48.874
Alright.
00:10:49.504 --> 00:10:50.494
You happen to it.
00:10:51.174 --> 00:10:54.325
If it's happening for you or against you, make sure it happens for you.
00:10:54.414 --> 00:10:54.804
All right?
00:10:55.014 --> 00:10:58.375
Be sure and share this episode with someone else who needs to hear it.
00:10:58.585 --> 00:11:01.975
Also, if you would leave a rating and review, this helps get the show out.
00:11:02.184 --> 00:11:05.125
This helps get the word out just and then share this.
00:11:05.154 --> 00:11:06.565
Just do me that one favor, man.
00:11:06.565 --> 00:11:11.455
Share this with one person who you know you'd like to see 'em change.
00:11:11.455 --> 00:11:14.634
Man, they just kind of, they're, they're kind of backsliding a little bit.
00:11:14.904 --> 00:11:15.384
All right?
00:11:15.625 --> 00:11:18.985
Just say, Hey, man, friend of mine sent me this.
00:11:19.355 --> 00:11:21.312
And I just wanted to share it with you.
00:11:21.552 --> 00:11:22.841
All right, let's get outta here.
00:11:22.871 --> 00:11:23.412
Keep it simple.
00:11:23.412 --> 00:11:23.951
Keep it moving.
00:11:23.951 --> 00:11:24.461
Never settle.
00:11:24.461 --> 00:11:25.001
Stay tough.
00:11:25.001 --> 00:11:25.361
Peace.
