Action’s biggest stumbling block is inertia.

Newton’s First Law of Motion explains that an object at rest will remain at rest until acted on by a force.

Forcing yourself to move is always a starting point, not a lifelong strategy.

Willpower is a force. It’s like the Russian Olympic weight lifter that can move a car with his mass, but can’t find pants that fit.

It’s helpful to have willpower to get you started, but if you seek it as a steady diet, you’ll remain at rest and shopping at the Plus Size Shop.

This is not as much about weight as it is about movement.

Back to Newton’s First Law: “Every object persists in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless it is compelled to change that state.”

There is magic in movement. That magic is called momentum, another of Newton’s Laws.

You cannot get to momentum if you are always starting. You waste all of your energy starting one thing after another and never getting into the flow of one specific thing. This will leave you scattered, depleted and quickly return you to a state of rest.

Movement has transformative qualities about it. That means if you commit to movement in any one area, the momentum it causes transfers into other areas of your life that need movement.

Pick one area of your life and add physical movement to it. For example, if you are a homebody, couch potato, or anti-social, move yourself outside your home on a regular basis. Take a walk, go to the market, visit a friend, anything that causes you to move more than you normally do.

You are training yourself in movement and, with practice, you will find your way to momentum.

Movement is the catalyst for momentum and momentum will find its way into all that you do.

There’s a reason that business books are filled with this idea: If you want to get a job done, give it to a busy person. The thought being that a busy person is already in the flow and his/her momentum will infuse your project.

This is not a recommendation to get busy for busy’s sake. That’s wheel spinning. This is about movement in a specific direction.

Pick something in your life and add physical movement to it. That means do more than think about it.

Movement leads to momentum and momentum leads to completion. If you get in the habit of movement, you will automatically complete more things, including some things you thought you could never do.

Get momentum on your side; it all begins with movement which is only a step away.

All the best,

John
