What’s the last real decision you made—and how did it change your life? https://www.getinthefight.club/7 — If you’re looking for help to break bad habits or build better ones and you want to be the man God made you to be, check out this link and our 7-Day Challenge — an email-based course absolutely free to help you learn how to change and grow and become more of the man you’re meant to be.

Most of the “decisions” men make aren’t really decisions at all—they’re half-hearted wishes. We like the idea of change, but if nothing changes, we shrug it off. But every once in a while, a man makes a real decision. The kind that changes everything.

In today’s episode, I share the story of a man at a bonfire who said, “I decided to follow Jesus and nothing has been the same ever since.” That story led me to reflect on my own life and the men I coach—how real decisions are the turning points that reshape identity, priorities, and daily action.

We’ll also look at men in Scripture who made powerful decisions—Joshua, Moses, Daniel, the disciples, and Paul—and what their examples show us about courage, clarity, and surrender.

In this episode you’ll learn:

Why change is so hard (and why most men never follow through) The difference between a wish and a decision

What’s at stake if you keep putting off real change

How to declare a decision that actually sticks

Practical Challenge for You:


Ask yourself: What’s at stake if I don’t change?

Burn the ships, then make your decision. You’re not broken beyond repair. You’re valuable to God and invited into real change. You don’t need hype — you need the right tools, the right truth, and a better way forward.
Start small. Start now.
