For months, I struggled trying to make money online.

I wanted so badly to stop giving all my time to a company that barely pays me enough to cover my bills. So I did what most people do… I poured every extra second I had into trying everything. Blogging, selling courses, promoting affiliate links… just throwing spaghetti at the wall, hoping something would finally stick.

And the truth is, those are all legitimate ways to make money online.

But something was off.

What actually changed everything wasn’t a new strategy… it was a shift in my habits...and more importantly, my focus.

I started putting God first again.

Not just when I felt like it. Not just when things weren’t working. But daily.

I made it a priority to read the Word, even on the days I didn’t feel like it. I started praying for discernment and wisdom, asking God to guide my next steps instead of trying to force my own way through everything.

And then I realized something else that needed to change: my words.

I had been speaking so negatively over my life without even realizing it. Saying things like, “This is never going to work” or “This isn’t going anywhere.” And even if I didn’t fully believe those words, I was still planting them.

So I had to shift my mindset.

I had to start speaking differently…even before I fully felt it.

In a way, it felt like “fake it until you make it,” but it was deeper than that. It was choosing to align my words with what God says instead of what I feel in the moment.

Because Scripture tells us that death and life are in the power of the tongue.

That means what I speak matters.

So instead of speaking doubt, I started speaking life. Speaking hope. Speaking belief over what I’m building, even when it felt small.

And lastly, I had to learn to have faith… real faith.

Not just praying and hoping God hears me, but praying and expecting Him to move. Trusting that He will answer, even if it doesn’t happen on my timeline.

That part isn’t always easy.

But it’s necessary.

Since making these small shifts, I’ve noticed a real difference… not just in what I’m doing, but in how I feel. There’s more peace, clarity, and confidence in the direction I’m going.

Things are starting to look up.

More than anything, I know that God is on my side. That what’s meant for me will come, in His time, not mine.

Until then, I’m just being faithful with what’s in front of me…

And trusting Him with the rest.
