Good morning and welcome to the Increase Your Impact podcast. I'm Justin Sua, episode 1,872. This episode is for those of you who are facing the inertia of getting started. Now, for those of you who aren't familiar with the word inertia, basically all the friction that is present, that is in your way, all the obstacles in your way from starting

is keeping you from starting.

Even though you know the benefits that come if you get started, even though you know the

results that you're going to get, you know it's good for you but it's just so hard

to get started now in order to generate momentum momentum for yourself one thing i'd suggest is to

start small just move start small one rep one day one of writing, just one little rep, and then do it again, and then do it again until you have momentum.

Something that grows exponentially, something that just grows tremendously, can become so valuable.

And it is so valuable that it's worth making incredible

an incredible effort just to get started so if you know you're going to have

unbelievable benefits from doing this thing you need to do everything you can to fight through that inertia just to get started.

Because you can't underestimate the compounding effect of putting a little work in every day.

Writing one page doesn't sound like a lot.

Going to the gym once doesn't sound like a lot.

That one bottle of water does not sound like a lot. But if you do it every day, you're going to the gym once doesn't sound like a lot that one bottle of water does not sound like a lot but if

you do it every day you're going to achieve massive results and this comes down to consistency

being consistent by doing the little things every day it feels like i keep hitting that drum

often multiple times and many of my social media posts and

many of these podcasts, but it all comes down to consistency. Remember, consistency over intensity

every single time. Just be consistent. And don't beat up on yourself with how small your momentum is,

how small your step might be.

That doesn't matter.

Just keep taking small steps until your small steps turn into bigger steps and turn into bigger steps and turn into bigger steps because you're building that capacity.
