I love this perspective on momentum. It’s so easy to fall into the trap of thinking that slowing down means losing progress when really it’s just a recalibration. “Slow down to speed up” is a gem I’m holding onto.
When my momentum stalls I focus on reconnecting with why I started in the first place. Sometimes that means stepping away completely to clear my head and other times it’s about shifting gears and finding smaller manageable wins to build back up. And I completely agree that leaning on community is a game-changer. The right conversations, even just a quick check-in, can be the nudge that brings clarity and motivation back.
Appreciate you sharing this. Looking forward to hearing how others navigate these moments too.
