You’re Just Too Loud to Hear the Answer

QUOTE:
"In quietness and confidence shall be your strength." – Isaiah 30:15

I saw a video the other day that made me pause.
A guy said:

“Rich people live in quiet neighborhoods… because money is made in silence.”

At first, I thought: Clickbait.

But then I sat with it.

And the more I thought about it, the more it made sense.

My best ideas have never come from chaos. They’ve shown up:

  • On peaceful morning walks

  • In the shower

  • Mid-prayer

  • While driving with no music

  • Or journaling alone in silence

Not in noise. Not in the group chat. Not in the algorithm.

THE TRUTH IS: Your environment might be blocking your next breakthrough.

Not because you’re not smart.
Not because you’re not called.
But because your life is too loud.

Your schedule is loud.
Your friends are loud.
Your notifications are loud.
Your habits are loud.

And God? God speaks in whispers.
So if everything around you is chaotic, you won’t hear Him clearly.

HERE’S WHAT I HAD TO LEARN:

1. Peace is a requirement.
If your life is full of stress, conflict, gossip, and overstimulation don’t be surprised when your creativity is dry and your faith feels distant. God flows best through peace.

2. Noise feels productive, but it’s not.
Scrolling, rushing, constant talking, none of it creates clarity. It creates clutter. And cluttered minds don’t build powerful things.

3. Peace is about decisions.
It’s about removing what steals your silence: People who drain you, habits that overstimulate and rnvironments that distract.

You can’t keep saying “God guide me,” while staying in rooms He didn’t call you to be in.

NON-NEGOTIABLE ACTION FOR THE WEEK:

Create your “peace audit.”

✅ What people, habits, or environments bring calm, clarity, and alignment?

❌ What brings noise, drama, or distraction?

Now make a plan to double down on the things that bring peace and cut the noise this week.

Even 15 mins of stillness a day can change your mind, mood, and momentum.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK:
"Clarity lives in silence. Peace is the platform God builds on." David Olusegun

Some of you are one moment of stillness away from the idea that changes your life.

But you won’t hear it in chaos.
You won’t find it in noise.
You’ll find it in peace.

So this week, chase peace like it’s money. Because it is.

Stay bold. Stay relentless.

David
