Faith in Action: Why Waiting for January is Killing Your Momentum

By Wyatt Poindexter

If you're reading this, there's probably a part of you that knows — deep down — you were created for more. Not just “more” in your real estate business, but more purpose, more faith, more discipline, and more confidence in who God designed you to be. And yet, most of us sit and wait for the perfect plan, the perfect moment, or the perfect clarity before we take that first step.

Let me tell you what I’ve learned after 31 years in this industry:

Your life changes the second your belief becomes behavior.

Faith in action is what separates the people who hope for greatness from the people who experience it. You don’t need more time. You don’t need a new marketing plan. You don’t need to organize your desk for the 10th time before you make a call.

What you need is movement.
What you need is action.
What you need is now.

Because now is where confidence grows.
Now is where fear loses its power.
Now is where God shows up.

Why Wait for January?

Everyone is about to start talking about New Year’s resolutions. And that’s great — I love goal-setters. But why are we waiting?

Why wait until 2026 to change your life when you can begin the transformation right now at the end of December? You don’t need the calendar’s permission to grow.

Ask yourself this with complete honesty:

What will you do differently in 2026 to grow your real estate business?

Not what will you plan.
What will you do?

In the last few years, I’ve lived by a concept that changed my productivity, my faith, and my capacity:

The Power of ONE MORE.

A concept I learned from Ed Mylett (if you haven’t read The Power of One More, I highly recommend it — great book). The idea is simple and life-changing:

One more call.
One more hour of work.
One more follow up.
One more conversation with God.
One more note to a client.
One more act of kindness.
One more minute on the treadmill.
One more rep in the gym.

One more.
Every day.

Do this consistently, and your life will change faster than any business plan, lead-gen strategy, or New Year’s goal sheet.

Real Estate Truth:

People don’t buy your marketing.
They buy your belief.
They buy your discipline.
They buy your consistency.
They buy your faith in what you do.

Your real estate success in 2026 won’t be determined by social media, branding, or even the market. It will be determined by your behavior when you don’t feel like it.

And the moment you start acting faster than your doubt, the game changes.

Faith Isn't a Feeling — It’s a Movement

We say things like:
“God, show me the path,”
but then He gives us a step and we say,
“Yeah, but I was hoping for the whole staircase.”

Faith is motion.
Faith is acceleration.
Faith is taking the step you have — even if the rest of the path is foggy.

In business, in faith, in your personal life:

Faith becomes real the moment it becomes movement.

So Here’s My Challenge to You

Don’t wait for the ball to drop.
Don’t wait for January 1.
Don’t wait for the perfect plan.

Start now.
Make the call.
Reach out to that client.
Get to the gym.
Change your habits.
Build discipline in the small daily promises you keep to yourself.

The market rewards momentum.
God rewards obedience.
Your business rewards consistency.

If you stop negotiating with your excuses, you will be unrecognizable by this time next year.

2026 Is Coming — But Today Still Matters

You don’t need to overhaul your life overnight.
You just need one thing:

One more.
