Action Brings Momentum
I heard the phrase "Action Brings Momentum" yesterday. It jumped out at me in from a string of productivity videos, and now I can't remember which one it came from. But the phrase was very powerful, even if the rest of the video wasn't, and I've been thinking about it ever since.
Last year, when I was struggling with writing, I decided to take a break, and I had planned that break to last until my Q1 writing retreat. I think I forgot about the plan, because I only just realized that my Q1 retreat is supposed to be this coming weekend, and I don't feel ready to get back into things. I feel rusty, and anxious about trying again, because what if the break didn't work? What if it made the issue worse? What if I try writing something and I hate it?
But that phrase Action Brings Momentum is like a clarion call, that I just need to do. The quality doesn't matter right now. Just the action.
I don't think I'm going to wait until the weekend to get started.
