Beneath the fear, beneath the conditioning, beneath the survival identity, beneath the masks you learned to wear to be accepted, beneath the quiet ways you’ve abandoned yourself just to fit in, there is a self that has never wavered. Never weakened. Never disappeared. This self has watched you struggle. Watched you doubt. Watched you shrink. Watched you forget. And yet, it never left you. This self is The Great One. www.iammethod.com

Have you ever felt invisible? Like no matter how hard you try, people just don’t really see who you truly are. They don’t see your passion, your heart, your soul. You show up. You work hard. You give your best. And yet, it feels like your presence slips through the cracks. That feeling, that quiet ache of not being seen, not being having your greatness witnessed, isn’t because the world is ignoring you. It’s because you are hiding,  you haven’t fully seen yourself yet. Welcome to IAM, I am David Andrade - www.iammethod.com

Have you ever felt like no matter how much progress you make… you end up back in the same place? Like some invisible hand keeps pulling you toward a version of yourself you thought you outgrew? Or like you’ve been following a plan for your life — but deep down, you know it’s not yours?  

You think the noise is out there, social media, opinions, politics, the world moving too fast. But what if the noise isn’t out there at all? What if the noise… is you?  

Let me ask you something. When you feel something — anger, sadness, peace, or joy — who’s really in control? Most people believe emotions happen to them. That they’re trapped inside whatever they feel. But the truth is… you’re not your emotions. You’re their architect.

Imagine this, you have just been told you have 24 hours to live. No extensions. No negotiations. The clock is ticking. Suddenly, everything you thought you’d do ‘someday’ disappears. The self you were waiting to ‘change' into is gone and you only have right now.

"The future is an illusion until it arrives, and when the future arrives, you will still only be able to live it today, not tomorrow. You see, 'Change' wants you to wait for the future, 'Change' doesn't believe in now. But 'Choosing' gives you the power to live your future today."

Life is  not about what you want to change or where you hope to be, life is  about the decision sitting in front of you right now. And the reason this matters is because every time you avoid a choice, you’re wiring your brain to stay stuck. What Choice are you avoiding?

Here’s the truth you may not want to hear: The pain you bear often comes from the change you seek. Why? Because change always puts you in waiting. It says, “When I finally change, then I’ll be who I want to be.” But waiting keeps you stuck in the very pain you want to escape.  

For generations, we’ve been told the same story: You must change your life in order to advance. Change your habits. Change your mindset. Change your circumstances. But here’s the truth: change has always been a lie.

When you 'Choose' you are commanding a now. When you attempt to 'Change' you command a tomorrow.

We call things ‘habits’ like they’re harmless routines; brushing your teeth, scrolling your phone, always running late. But the truth is this: a habit is not just behavior. A habit is a command. A survival mechanism your identity uses to keep itself alive.

We’ve all heard it.Someone says, “This is going to change my life.” And every time, I cringe. Because I know what’s about to happen.

“Why Does This Keep Happening to Me?” You’re not cursed. You’re not stuck. Life isn’t against you—it’s reflecting you.In this episode, I break down how your identity—your “I AM”—shapes your experiences. The patterns you keep running into aren’t punishment... they’re feedback.Once you stop trying to change your life and start choosing who you are, everything shifts.Let’s explore how to reclaim your power—no change required.

"The Importance Of Now!" Think about this  When are you living? Yesterday, Now or tomorrow? Which one of these do you have control over? Which one of these holds you back? "Now" refers to the present moment—the point in time that is happening right at this instant. It’s the only moment you can truly experience and act upon because the past is already gone, and the future hasn’t arrived. You can control now.

Why are you always angry at everything, or, conversely, why are you always positive and happy? The body, in essence, becomes the mind, the triggering chemicals produced in the body are orchestrated by your thoughts. What you think triggers specific neural and hormonal responses, leading the body to manufacture chemicals that align with and reinforce those thoughts. This means your beliefs and mental focus shape your emotional state and, over time, can solidify into habits or even a perceived identity. It’s a dynamic feedback loop where thought influences chemistry, and chemistry, now in turn, reinforces thought, where now your Body becomes your mind.

Just for a moment have you tried to change and been absolutely frustrated? Just for a moment have you ever thought that personal change was a futile attempt? Just for a moment have you ever thought that we are not meant to change..but meant to BE?

Today, we're diving deep into a topic that has shaped societies throughout history: Government Leadership and the control of….'Choices.'  Governments and leadership already know that the power is in not controlling the idea of 'Change' but in the power of controlling 'Choices.'

Have you ever done something you knew you shouldn’t have, then immediately asked yourself, “Why did I just do that? I know better!” You tell yourself, “I don’t act like that. I never act like that. So why now?” We then berate and beat ourselves for doing what we know we should not be doing, yet we did it anyway, wondering why we repeat behaviors that lead us nowhere. Why? Why do we tend to conduct a ritual that we know is detrimental and unresolving?

We have all told someone this or have been told ourselves, "Why are you so lazy?" But what is actually behind the word lazy? We are transfixed on the term only as the unwillingness to get up and move, but there is more to this.
