Escape Velocity: “the minimum velocity that a moving body (such as a rocket) must have to escape from the gravitational field of a celestial body (such as the earth) and move outward into space.”
Holy Metaphor Alert! Here we go…
You are the rocket.
You desire to do something great, make art, make a change, start a business, break a habit, etc…That desire to do something different is like trying to lift off the earth. It will require enormous energy and focus to do so. Especially at the beginning. Possibly more energy than you think you’re capable of.
That required, beginning energy is like your escape velocity. Don’t run from the effort. Lean into it. Because someday it will all be worth it.
Someday you’ll get to this…
