Maintaining momentum
Learning from Dicke Bush:
- Objects in motion tend to stay in motion. Objects at rest tend to stay at rest.
- Progress comes from ruthless protection of momentum.
- The best way to keep momentum is to avoid things that kill it.
- Momentum is addicting and leads to more momentum. Lack of momentum is stagnating and leads to more stagnation.
- It takes way less effort to keep momentum than you think.
- It takes way less time to lose momentum than you think.
- Society is set up to constantly kill your momentum.
- The simplest daily goal is to maintain momentum for each of your commitments.
- There are 3 time periods to measure momentum: micro, meso, and macro. When you have all 3, you’re unstoppable.
- Friction is the enemy of momentum. Ease is its best friend.
Remove friction. Maintain momentum. When things stop, put real effort into getting them moving again.
