Frustrating

glass-4850062_1280.jpg

I've been trying to understand myself a little bit more, and figure out what likely halts my momentum and sets me back when am trying to build a consistency streak. Of course the potential reasons are many, and could vary from my own laziness to some external factors beyond my control. One thing is for sure though, one momentum is halted for whatever reason making a recovery has usually proved difficult.

I've come to realize that sustaining momentum is not a given, but an achievement. Everyday that momentum is sustained is something worth celebrating. It is usually a climb that no one should self sabotage or drop off from without good reasons. Just like the proverbial horse, it is usually very difficult to get back on once you get off. Nonetheless myself and indeed many of us do experience dips in momentum which sometimes are wildly beyond our control.

One thing that stands out for me as a potential breaker when it comes to momentum are those unpredictable moments of frustration - be they internal or external. Take for instance if I've planned to create some content on Hive and my day goes south. I come home frustrated and extreme tired. Most times the only thing I want to do is sleep and look forward to the next day. However, when the next day comes and the momentum has been lost, it usually becomes very difficult to kickstart it. A day becomes a week and the cycle deepens.

A philosophy am trying to imbibe is not to miss two consistent days for anything. Even if the momentum does break it can still be resuscitated. However once the days roll bye and nothing is done to keep the cycle going, we can go all the way to rock bottom before starting over.
