Momentum: The Law of Inertia, Applied to Your Life, Your Work, and Your Goals (The Mental Edge)

In Momentum, Timothy Cobb, Navy veteran, entrepreneur, and author of Rebuilt, takes Newton's First Law of Motion and applies it to the one place it matters most: your life. An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion. The same is true of people.

Drawing from his own journey of losing the dream around which he had built his identity and rebuilding his life one step at a time, Cobb breaks momentum down into five parts: Rest, Motion, Force, Direction, and Resistance. Each chapter turns a simple idea from physics into practical steps you can start using today.

Whether you're stuck in a rut, starting over after a setback, or already moving and trying to keep it going, this book was written for you.

Momentum will show you how to:

• Find a reason strong enough to break the comfort of standing still

• Take the first step, even when you don't feel ready

• Put real effort behind your goals by pushing harder and carrying less

• Set a clear direction and correct your course before small drifts become big mistakes

• Push through resistance and get moving again after life knocks you down

Inertia is always working on your life.

Every single day, it's either keeping you stuck or keeping you moving. You don't get to opt out. You only get to choose which side you're on.

This isn't a book about physics. It's a book about getting moving and staying in motion.
