Maintaining momentum
Maintaining Momentum It’s typically easier to maintain momentum than it is to recreate momentum. If you’ve ever ridden a bike up a steep hill, you know that it is hard work. If you keep pedaling, it is hard work. If you stop pedaling and then have to start again, it is even harder work. The […]
