Have you ever caught yourself thinking…
“If I do this action, then I should get this result.”
It sounds logical.
You’re negotiating, and telling yourself to do the hard thing so you can get X result.
But here’s the truth most people don’t realize:
We drastically underestimate what it actually takes to create the results we want… especially when it’s the first time.
Whether you’re trying to sign clients, lose weight, rebuild connection in your marriage, or grow into a deeper version of yourself…
There’s a gap no one warns you about…
The emotional gap between taking the action v.s. actually believing the action will work.
And when the result doesn’t show up right away, the mind jumps in with:
“I don’t know how.”
“I’m missing something.”
“Maybe I’m not cut out for this.”
“Maybe something is wrong with me.”
So what happens?
You start taking action just to check the box.
You go through the motions.
You do the “right things” from the “wrong energy.”
And this is where people get stuck.
Because if you do the right things while quietly believing it won’t work, your mind registers that as evidence.
Evidence that:
“I tried. I did everything. But nothing changed.”
But the truth is…
The action wasn’t the problem.
The energy behind it was.
Most people aren’t failing because they’re doing the wrong things. They’re failing because they’re doing the right things from a place of doubt, fear, or self-protection.
You can’t plant a seed and then dig it up every day to check if it’s working.
There is a version of you who takes action from self-trust instead of self-doubt.
THAT’s the version who gets results.
So today, ask yourself:
Am I taking action from belief… or from hoping something finally proves I’m enough?
Because the moment you shift that, the results shift with you.
