Let’s be real, everyone wants the magic button.
That secret shortcut to success that’ll finally make their business explode without the hustle, the waiting, or the messy middle.
Maybe it’s a new course, a “perfect” funnel, or the latest AI tool that promises overnight results.
We’ve all been there, believing that this time it’s going to be easy.
But here’s the truth no one wants to hear: there is no magic button outside of you.
The real magic button is you – your consistency, your commitment, and your willingness to stay in the game when it’s uncomfortable.
Most people quit too soon. They jump from one shiny thing to the next, convincing themselves the last thing “didn’t work.”
But it’s not that the strategy didn’t work, it’s that they didn’t stick around long enough for it to show them it worked.
If that one stings a little, good. Because once you stop chasing shortcuts and start building belief in yourself, you realize that success was never about finding something new, it’s about becoming someone new.
Why Growth Takes Time (Even When You Can’t See It)
There’s a story we love – the bamboo story.
You plant bamboo, you water it, you feed it, and… nothing. For years.
You start to think the thing’s broken. You’ve prayed over it, spoken affirmations to it, and still crickets.
And then, in its fifth year, that bamboo shoots up four feet in one year. It explodes.
But here’s the thing: it wasn’t doing nothing for those first five years.
It was building roots deep below the surface, preparing to hold the massive growth that was coming.
That’s exactly what’s happening in your business.
Every skill you’re learning, every strategy you’re testing, every mindset shift you’re making – that’s root work.
It’s invisible for a while. But it’s necessary.
The problem is, most people never stick around long enough to see their bamboo grow.
They start comparing their timeline to someone else’s, forgetting that everyone’s soil is different.
Some people start with skills you’re still developing, and that’s okay.
The only person you need to compete with is the version of you from yesterday.
Your job isn’t to look at how fast someone else is growing, it’s to keep watering your bamboo.
Because your roots are forming, even when you can’t see them yet.
The Real Magic Button
We’ve all done it… bought the course, watched the videos, taken notes, and then… did nothing.
It’s like we think consuming information is progress.
But your business doesn’t grow by watching someone else’s training, it grows when you take action.
And not just the easy action.
Everyone wants to do the comfortable stuff, the tasks that don’t risk rejection or discomfort.
But that’s not where transformation happens.
The magic button is found in the scary stuff, the things that push you outside your comfort zone.
You’re not missing a secret strategy; you’re missing consistent action.
The kind that feels awkward, clumsy, and uncomfortable at first.
You have to go through the “this doesn’t make sense yet” phase before things start clicking.
And yes, that phase sucks. Your family might tell you to quit, your results might not show up for a while, and you’ll question yourself a hundred times.
But that’s the process.
The people who win aren’t the smartest or the luckiest, they’re the ones who stay in the game long enough for their effort to compound.
Because once you keep going through the uncomfortable, you start to change.
You care less about what others think and more about where you’re going.
And that’s when everything you touch finally starts turning into gold.
From Uncomfortable to Unstoppable
Every entrepreneur goes through three stages on the path to success: uncomfortable, unbearable, and unstoppable.
The first stage – uncomfortable – is when everything feels awkward.
You’re learning, trying, failing, and repeating.
You feel like a beginner, and that’s okay. Everyone starts here.
Then comes the unbearable stage. This is where most people quit.
It feels like you’re trudging through mud, you’re doing all the things, but the results aren’t showing up.
It’s frustrating, exhausting, and it feels like nothing is working.
But this is where the magic happens.
Because right on the other side of “unbearable” is unstoppable.
That’s when the momentum kicks in. Your energy shifts. You stop overthinking and start trusting.
You become the kind of person who keeps going no matter what and the results finally start compounding.
Most people quit right before they break through.
They throw in the towel, start over, and end up stuck in a painful cycle of quitting and restarting.
But if you can recognize when you’re in that “unbearable” stage and just push through it, that’s when you finally hit your unstoppable season.
So the question is, what stage are you in right now?
Do the Work, Feel the Magic
Here’s the truth: your magic button was never a course, a strategy, or a system.
It’s been you all along.
You don’t need to do more, you need to stick with what you’re doing long enough to let it work.
Because every uncomfortable action you take, every scary step forward, is shaping you into the kind of person who doesn’t just dream of success, she creates it.
So stop chasing quick fixes.
Keep watering your bamboo.
Do the scary thing.
And when it feels unbearable, remember, that’s just the universe testing how bad you really want it.
The magic happens when you refuse to quit.
