Repetitive Brilliance

It's another crystal clear and sunny morning in Chicago. In fact, there isn't even a hint of a cloud anywhere in the sky. The sky is so brilliantly blue that it's hard to imagine that the light from the sun is golden. It's almost a complete repeat of yesterday. It must be momentum.

It's amazing how easy it is to keep going when you have momentum. Even challenges that might otherwise stop you and trip you up are easy to overcome when you already have motion and momentum. Newton's third law states that anything in motion tends to stay in motion and anything at rest tends to stay at rest unless acted upon by a considerable force. This is critical understanding. When you are moving then almost nothing can stop you. When you are stuck then it takes a great effort to get moving again. The trick is to always be moving.
