Get in motion (DW#319)
Do you remember Newton’s First Law of Motion?
"An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by some outside force."
This is also known as the law of inertia or the law of momentum.
How does it apply to us with regards to goal setting?
Well, some of us have a hard time getting started towards our goals. We have a case of ‘paralysis by analysis’. We think and think and think and think without taking any action. We plan and think of obstacles and do ALL of that.
And we get the booby prize for goal setting. The prize for knowing the most theory and having the most knowledge (please do not ask me how I know this)
There is however, no actual change in our lives. Oooops!
Life, in turns out, only rewards actual effort. And movement.
Here’s the good news though. Once we take that first step, we are in action and then Newton’s law kicks in. The moment we take a little bit of action; we will tend to STAY in motion.
And things begin to change . . . and we are one step closer to our goal.
See how that works?
You already have everything you need to take the first action towards you goal.
