“Improvising things is always changing. A lot of momentum.”

- Ikue Mori  

Momentum is motivation's most accessible companion--we're talking small, but generative moves. If motivation doesn’t come easily, consider what gives you momentum and the outcomes that momentum delivers. Small sparks can fuel productivity and growth! What assumptions or behaviors support your momentum? What assumptions or behaviors undermine your momentum? What is one thing you can do to challenge those assumptions and behaviors? How compelling is your current goal? How can you align your goal with your current momentum? How can you align your mindset with your current momentum? How sustainable is your current pace? What is the smallest, most achievable change you need to make today?  

As you consider these questions, spend some time reviewing the linked articles below. These resources provide various frameworks for reflecting on the benefits of harnessing your own momentum to push yourself beyond your own expectations, particularly in the wake of stressors, burnout, anxiety, and other cognitive distractions.
