Can you keep up the momentum?

When you hurt your leg, what is the one thing that everyone tells you to do?

Rest and relax. Take it easy. Recover

Sounds logical right? But sometimes, that’s the opposite of what you need to do. Because when you rest, you also kill something important.

You kill your momentum. 

Momentum is the reason an oil tanker takes a long time to come to a stop. Momentum is the reason that the successful keep making more and more money. Momentum is the reason sports teams keep winning.

Momentum is a powerful force in your life. And you must nurture that force in your life by keeping it alive.

Here’s the secret to nurturing that force:

Keep moving forward. 

Even if you only move forward an inch, that’s forward motion. That’s enough to accomplish your goals.

So instead of resting and recovering, can you keep up the momentum?
