We're HUGE believers in “work smarter, not harder” (especially when it comes to eating “clean foods” and working out).
And here’s a big tip that comes from physics class.
It’s an actual LAW of physics that it’s easier to keep going than it is to get started.
But the opposite is also true: once you get going, it gets EASIER and EASIER, thanks to a force called “momentum.”
The tip: accept that getting started will take some effort… and then once you DO start, don’t stop.
Harness the power of momentum!
How do you do that?
Every time it feels like you’ve gone a bit off track, get back on course ASAP by making a healthy choice… and then another one… and then another one!
The point isn’t to become obsessive or “perfect.”
The point is to just keep your momentum up, so you don’t have to restart again!
Miss a workout or two?
Do a workout. Boom. You’re back on track.
The slice of birthday cake at a family party that turned into an unplanned “off” day?
Have a healthy breakfast of overnight oats and eggs and voila. You haven’t lost your momentum.
The struggle happens when you wait soooo long to get back on track that your momentum has slowed or is gone altogether.
Don’t let it happen!
This idea is so powerful that John Maxwell, one of the most well-known names in leadership and self-development, made it one of his laws of success…
He called it the Law of Big Mo. What works for Fortune 500 companies can work for your fitness, too.
Another thing that can help you find your “Big Mo” moment?
A plan that is actually BUILT for you, by someone who gets it!
