Building Relentless Confidence for 2026

Happy New Year! It’s that time of the year again, when we plan and strategize and feel the highs of another new year. I’m grateful to God that we’ve made it to the halfway mark of 2020. This remains a decade that calls for 20/20 vision. As the world continues to evolve and gets increasingly cluttered, it's more important than ever to know who you are and what your deep-rooted why is.

Now, how do you act on vision and execute purpose when there are so many distractions? You need unrelenting clarity and confidence. While we don't know what will happen in 2026, what if we approach the year on the offensive? Positioning ourselves to not just survive another year, but instead positioning ourselves to win every moment regardless of what's coming. That's going into the year with confidence.

You need to burst forth like Nehemiah (Nehemiah 2:11-20), operate with the confidence of David (1 Samuel 17:39-51), move with the grace of Esther (Esther 5), and function with the focus of Daniel (Daniel 6:10-28), and build with the wisdom of Solomon (1 Kings 3:3, 6-9). 

In a time where AI is on the rise, the global world is changing, and economic liberties are shifting, I assure you that being timid is not the answer. The dream that’s locked up inside of you, that’s been arresting you since you’ve received it, requires your attention, and it’s urgent. 

What if God came and personally met you in your room and told you this is not a request but a command that you must fulfill this purpose? What would you do? What would you say? 

"Just one more year Lord…I’m too afraid…I’m too young…I don’t have what I need yet." All things He’s heard before. 

And it's okay, because He’s the God that sees and knows all. He expected it, so He’s already aligned the time to present you with the moment that He knew your "almost" would become let’s GO! Why not make this that moment?

It's time to stop being theoretical in your faith and be more real. Instead of over-hypothesizing and overthinking ourselves out of the opportunity, we need to just go, walk right into it. After all, our faith literally calls us to do this, walk by faith, not by sight. Forget not seeing the full picture, YOU 👏 HAVE 👏 SOME 👏 THING, YOU HAVE IT 👏 and this needs to be enough to give you the confidence that if it's from God, then something good is on the other side of it. 

Think about this: if He has done miracles, has taken slaves and set them free, has saved men from lions and prisons, has turned men/women with nothing into something, why not you too? 

You need to be confident that the God of the bible is the God of your reality. Be confident that He has good in mind for you, and be confident that you were created intentionally and everything about you is perfect for your life.

Building Relentless Confidence for 2026, because it could hold the very thing that will change everything for you. Here’s how: 

1. Consume what reinforces what is good and perfect about you (highlight key scriptures, watch old videos of your successes, connect with people who remind you of the best in you, stay close to the voices that celebrate you) 

2. Celebrate your big and minor victories: whether it’s creating the biz account, hosting a program, submitting an application or starting your day the way you planned, find ways to celebrate when you make progress – our brains need the dopamine boost to keep us going 

3. Reject and remove what doesn’t serve the present and future you: (This includes people and things) - Follow what looks like where you’re headed 

4. Dwell in the presence of your creator: I promise you He’ll comfort you best. And not only will he comfort you, but He'll also show you, you, by discovering more of Him.

2026, it's time to build, elevate, and be bold. It's time to hit GO!
