Initiating change is a tough business.To lose weight, to stop smoking, to stop drinking, etc., is a tough business.Start, stop, start, stop . . . only keeps you in place.To give yourself at least a fighting chance to lose weight (or to kick the habits of cigarettes, alcohol, drugs, etc.) building momentum — and sustaining it! — is fundamental to getting a change of habit or course of action to stick.Once you have momentum, it is much easier to keep things going because momentum is a force that far outweighs any kernel of self-doubt that may creep in.Start. Keep pushing. Don’t stop.Momentum is what drives success. It takes time, and you only get there if you stay the course.
