The God Step: Unlock Success Through Mindset, Repetition, and Decision-Making
By Hunter Grimm (Inspired by The Successful Mind Podcast)
What If Success Was Never Supposed to Be Hard?
Most of us were raised to believe that struggle earns us success. That we have to grind, sacrifice, and hope for a breakthrough if we just suffer long enough. But what if it’s the opposite? What if success is natural, and the real problem is how we’ve been taught to think?
That’s what I’ve been reflecting on after listening to The Successful Mind Podcast episode on something called “The God Step.” And honestly—it changed the way I see effort, results, and reality itself.
🔑 Success Is Supposed to Be Easy (But We've Been Programmed Otherwise)
The host, David Nagle, makes a wild but powerful claim:
“It’s easier to make $10 million than it is to make $100,000.”
At first, that sounds delusional. But the point is: with the right mindset and decision-making, you align with more, not less. If your beliefs say success must be slow, painful, or scarce… then your life will reflect exactly that.
🧠 Mindset Isn’t a Buzzword—It’s the Entire Game
I’ve seen this in my own life: when I expect things to be hard, my brain finds every reason to prove it. But when I immerse myself in ideas of expansion, ease, and purpose, I actually start to live from that place.
Our biggest obstacle isn’t lack of knowledge—it’s lack of belief in what’s possible.
🎧 School Teaches Us to Survive—Not Succeed
We’re trained to get through information, not absorb it. To pass the test, not transform through it.
But mastery doesn’t come from once-and-done learning. It comes from immersion:
Reading, re-reading
Listening, re-listening
Practicing until it becomes who you are
This is how your brain rewires itself. Repetition isn’t boring—it’s your brain asking for more time to become the thing you're learning.
🌀 Thinking FROM Success vs. TO Success
This one shook me:
Most people think success is “out there,” and they need to “get to it.” But the real shift is this:
Think from the person who’s already living it.
Not “how do I become successful?”
But “as someone who already is—what do I do next?”
Your outer life begins to rearrange itself to match your inner identity.
🌍 Your Environment Shapes You (Whether You Like It or Not)
Just like water takes the shape of its container, your mind conforms to your surroundings. If you’re in a space full of scarcity, fear, and negativity, your mind will adapt to survive—not thrive.
Choose spaces that feed your vision. Even if that means being alone until you find the right people.
⚖️ The Law of Polarity: If a Problem Exists, So Does the Solution
Every obstacle comes with its opposite. That’s the Law of Polarity.
If you’re facing fear, doubt, or limitation—the solution isn’t far. It’s just that your mind hasn’t been trained to see it yet. That’s why mindset work isn’t fluffy—it’s essential.
⚡ The “God Step” = Decision Before Evidence
This is the core idea:
Make the decision before you know how.
When you decide from the place of power—not fear—you activate the universe to respond. New ideas, connections, and resources begin to show up. But it starts with one bold choice.
Decide → Receive → Act → Receive More
That’s the feedback loop of faith and creation.
🎨 You Choose the Meaning of Your Life
The meaning of life? It’s not given to you.
It’s chosen.
You decide what matters. You decide what you’re here for. You decide what success means for you.
And the best part? Once you make that decision, life starts to mirror it back to you.
🔁 Final Reflection
I’m living this in real time. Building a business while working full-time. Creating content daily. Sleeping in my car right now—but holding a vision in my soul that already exists. That’s the difference.
You don’t need to figure out how right now. You just need to decide.
🧭 Key Takeaways
Success becomes simple when you think from the version of you who already has it.
Repetition transforms knowledge into identity.
Your environment silently shapes your outcomes—choose wisely.
Every challenge contains its opposite solution.
The God Step is this: Decide, and the “how” will come.
Your life’s meaning is a choice—make it one you’d be proud to live.
