In the heat of the moment, when everything in you wants to stop, that’s where transformation begins. In this video, I reflect on something my coach says during the most brutal workouts: “This is where you change.” When the body is screaming and the mind is begging for comfort, he’d remind me: “Eddie, I thought you wanted change… this is where it happens.”

That message has stuck with me beyond the gym. Because pain isn’t the enemy, it’s the cost of greatness. It’s the toll we pay to become stronger, more resilient, and closer to the person we want to be. Whether it’s a workout, a life challenge, or chasing your dreams, the hard part is the work.

Use the pain. And keep going. That’s where you change.

At first, they call you crazy

.Your dreams? Unrealistic.

Your effort? Obsessive.

Your path? Insane.

But then… it works.

Suddenly, you're not crazy — you're lucky.

The same people who dismissed you now want your secret.

What they don’t see is the sacrifice, the discipline, the years of quiet struggle.

They call it luck, but to you… that’s the real insanity.

In this powerful episode, Eddie Pinero unpacks the misunderstood journey of creation — how every visionary is first doubted, then praised, and how success often comes wrapped in ridicule before it’s recognized.

Sometimes the weight we carry isn’t what's ahead of us, it’s what we refuse to leave behind. This video is a reminder that forward is the only direction that builds us. In order to know how far we can go, we have to go there. No shortcuts. No turning around. Just the open road, our will, and the belief that the life we want begins when we stop looking back. This is the way.More from Eddie Pinero:Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletterYour World Within Podcast: https://yourworldwithin.libsyn.com/Stream these tracks on Spotify - https://spoti.fi/2BLf6pBInstagram - @your_world_within and @IamEddiePineroTikTok - your_world_withinFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/YourworldwithinTwitter - https://www.twitter.com/IamEddiePineroBusiness Inquiries - http://www.yourworldwithin.com/contact

There’s a voice in your head that sounds like truth, but it’s fear in disguise. In this cinematic self-confrontation, Eddie Pinero sits face to face with his inner dialogue, exposing the lies we tell ourselves to stay comfortable, small, and hidden.

This isn’t just about motivation, it’s about reclaiming your power by challenging the stories that no longer serve you. The life you want isn’t waiting on luck, it’s waiting on you to silence the doubt and step forward.

What if the life you’ve been chasing is already calling out to you, waiting for you to slow down, to listen, to finally stop running? This video begins with an Ode to Life; a tribute to the moments we miss, the beauty we forget, and the stillness that reminds us who we are.

From there, it becomes a cinematic journey through motion, solitude, and the questions we avoid when we’re too busy moving. This isn’t just motivation, it’s a mirror. A wake-up call. A reminder that sometimes the most powerful step forward is the one that makes you confront who you’ve become… and who you still have time to be.

We often think we’re stuck because the path forward feels too big, too overwhelming, too far out of reach. But what if the problem isn’t the mountain... it’s how we’re trying to climb it? In this episode, we break down the illusion of being stuck and explore how creating small, intentional milestones can turn the impossible into progress. You don’t need to conquer it all at once, you just need to start. One step, one win, one breakthrough at a time.More from Eddie Pinero:Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletterYour World Within Podcast: https://yourworldwithin.libsyn.com/Stream these tracks on Spotify - https://spoti.fi/2BLf6pBInstagram - @your_world_within and @IamEddiePineroTikTok - your_world_withinFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/YourworldwithinTwitter - https://www.twitter.com/IamEddiePineroBusiness Inquiries - http://www.yourworldwithin.com/contact

In this episode, Eddie Pinero dismantles the myth that we need more plans or motivation to change our lives, and instead reveals that the real breakthrough comes when we stop lying to ourselves.

With raw honesty and cinematic depth, he reminds us that everything in life is fixable, nothing is ever too far gone to improve. Whether you’ve been avoiding hard truths or waiting for the “right time,” this message is a wake-up call to face yourself, take ownership, and reclaim your power.

Change doesn’t start with strategy, it starts with courage.

We tell ourselves we need more time - that if we just had a little more space, we’d figure it all out. But more time isn’t the answer. It’s how we use the time we already have. In this episode, we explore the idea that for every reason to quit, there’s a reason to grow. For every excuse to stop, there’s a deeper reason to move forward. Life responds to how we choose to see it - whether as an obstacle or an invitation. This is your reminder that progress isn’t found in the margins - it’s created in the moments we stop running from ourselves and start choosing purpose over comfort.More from Eddie Pinero:Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletterYour World Within Podcast: https://yourworldwithin.libsyn.com/Stream these tracks on Spotify - https://spoti.fi/2BLf6pBInstagram - @your_world_within and @IamEddiePineroTikTok - your_world_withinFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/YourworldwithinTwitter - https://www.twitter.com/IamEddiePineroBusiness Inquiries - http://www.yourworldwithin.com/contact

In this powerful reflection, we explore the truth behind Will Smith’s message that “greatness is not this wonderful, esoteric, elusive, god-like feature that only the special among us will ever taste, it’s something that truly exists in all of us.” Life’s greatest rewards don’t come through divine intervention, but by holding on until that breakthrough moment. When you feel like giving up, remember: you’re not behind, you’re on the edge of breakthrough. It’s not about others seeing your vision, it’s about seeing it yourself, over and over again, until the world can’t help but notice.0:00 It's always darkest before dawn12:12 Why gratitude will change your life13:17 One decision away21:45 Become the Answer27:20 When you don't know "what to do"More from Eddie Pinero:Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletterYour World Within Podcast: https://yourworldwithin.libsyn.com/Stream these tracks on Spotify - https://spoti.fi/2BLf6pBInstagram - @your_world_within and @IamEddiePineroTikTok - your_world_withinFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/YourworldwithinTwitter - https://www.twitter.com/IamEddiePineroBusiness Inquiries - http://www.yourworldwithin.com/contact
