momentum
The hardest part of my run is not the end, when I am exhausted, its the first 100 feet when I am completely filled with energy. The hardest part is the beginning, gaining the momentum. Momentum is what gets me to the end of a run, the finish line at a regatta. Momentum is how I get things done. Momentum will only exist if it is set into motion. Starting something is all about giving it all you got, a one hundred percent effort for what may be a one percent return, but that one percent return builds and as the effort continues to be made that one percent turns into two and that two yields four, four to eight, eight to sixteen. In no time you are just riding in the wake of your momentum. This is a runners high, this is euphoria during a workout, that moment when your exhaustion turns to energy, where your stress becomes motivation. In life this is when all of your hard work starts to pay off. This is when you are getting A's, getting jobs, being productive. This is when your accomplishments start pushing you to attempt to accomplish other things and in turn those accomplishments push you more. I am riding the wake of my momentum right now. You see momentum is this impelling force that constantly pushes forward all you have to do is set it in motion.
