Episode 18: 92% Won’t Do It: Why You Haven’t Committed (Yet) | The 7th Cents Podcast

Coach R.L. Simmons, Kalecia Simmons, Donnell Johns Sr., Michael Macklin Season 1 Episode 18

According to research, only 8% of people actually take action on the changes they say they want. That means 92% are stuck in limbo — thinking, wishing, and waiting.

In this episode of the 7th Cents Podcast, Coach R.L. Simmons and Money Mike (The Green Order) break down why people fail to commit, how ego, fear, and emotional comfort zones block progress, and what it actually takes to get out of the 92% and join the 8% of high-action, high-impact individuals.

🔥 From financial goals to mindset shifts, entrepreneurship to everyday habits — this episode will challenge how you think about commitment and call you out (and up).

📌 Key Topics:

  • Why 92% of people never take action
  • The myth of "needing more information" before starting
  • Ego, pride, and the fear of being seen “naked”
  • How mentors and accountability partners change everything
  • Why most people don’t fear failure — they fear success
  • The difference between comfort and contentment
  • The psychology behind procrastination
  • Why consequences are the key to commitment
  • The universe is not on a budget — but your mindset might be
