And I think that anyone listening can relate to that thing they’re sitting on, or stalled on — maybe they did it — or maybe they’re still sitting on it, because they’re not sure it’s ready, or they’re not sure they’re ready, they’re not sure it’s good enough, they’re not sure they want to be seen, or what would people say? And I would just say, what if you acted as if you had no choice, and you just did it and see what happens? Because sometimes action can be a hell of a lot more effective than analysis.”“If we are waiting for lightning bolt motivation to do the thing we’re meant to do in life or to develop that skill or to learn that language or to start that exercise routine or to revisit our relationship with our spouse or our partner, whatever. If we’re waiting for that lightning bolt, you’re gonna die waiting. And I say that not to be cynical, but to say, if that were the secret, don’t you think that we would have hacked that by now? Don’t you think we would be doing all the things and all out here living our best life? I don’t know about you, but that’s not what happens for me. And the myth that you need to land on motivation, or even better, that it would land on you, that is not going to get you where you need to be. So the word I replace it with, every day of my life, is momentum.”
