Momentum is quite possibly one of the harshest realities one has to face.
The fact is momentum is never truly achieved; it’s only perceived.
When you look at this graph, it appears whatever it is measuring has gained momentum.
The reality is whatever is causing the increase is causing it because it’s showing up, working, producing, giving, sharing, caring, doing.
Those who strive for momentum head down a tragic path because they assume that momentum will make things easier for them, that they can glide or build off the energy behind them, but the reality is they must keep showing up, keep being vulnerable, keep shipping their work if they want to succeed.
Momentum won’t make things easier, it only makes things look like they’re easier.
But I suppose there is something comforting in that.
Stay Positive & It’ll Never Be Easier, But It Will Always Be Worth It
