Momentum

There are days that definitely seems like nothing is working. Sometimes those days becomes weeks or even months. You question yourself, your decisions and the even the future. Are you doing the right thing? Is it going to be always like this?

Who knows?

But the only thing I always say you cannot do, is not trying.

There will be days that will totally feel waste of time, like lost or even worthless, and those are the days that you just keep doing it what you are doing. Get out, show up and do the work, it doesn’t matter what.

It ain’t cool to keep trying and see no results. It frustrating at times, but if great things take time, and everything that worth doing requires patience and discipline, then the last thing to do is to give up.

I have had a lot of those days, but then you have those moments where everything seems to be in the right place. Everything makes sense. Everybody gets it.

Momentum.

These moments just happen, you cannot fabricate them, you cannot force them. They appear in front you, but they are not miracles, they are the result of all that work that you once almost stopped, all that work that you questioned many times. The result of commitment and belief that what you were doing was the right thing no matter what.

However, easy as these moments appear they can go away. They can vanish in the air even faster than when they arrived, but like anything else, like the work that brought them in the first place, is up to you.

You don’t own momentum and it doesn’t owe you anything either, but you can make it stay longer. Rather than satiate your ego and fill the voids for all those missing opportunities, for that long wait, treat it well and show it that you care.

Grab it and get hold onto it, not because that way it won’t escape, it will if it wants to, but because it is your opportunity to move away, far where you always dreamed to be, where you have always wanted to be. Don’t let it go.
