Start small

We learn to juggle by first learning to toss (and catch) one ball. Only one. Then two. Then three ...

We start small.

While the vision is to be juggling, we do not begin by throwing all the balls into the air simultaneously.

And yet this is what we sometimes do with projects. We begin by launching them all at once. All the balls in the air without a viable catching strategy.

Instead of “toss, toss, toss,” what happens when we play, “toss, catch,” and then we do it again?

Small steps that we can complete are small steps that can be repeated.

That ... is momentum.
