Meteor

The writing of James Clear, the author of Atomic Habits, continually inspires me. I remembered a statement he had:

"On the ground, a rock is just a rock. But when moving at high speed through the atmosphere, a rock becomes a meteor — alive with fire and burning bright.

People are not so different. Without activity, we are lifeless and dull. When moving fast and taking action, we come alive."

Totally agree. It made me think of two things:

  • Momentum is amazing. Small acts can compound. Little actions can snowball. And soon that BHAG (Big Hairy Audacious Goal) can feel closer than ever.

  • The right alchemy of an environment and community can fuel my brightest light. Have I audited my atmosphere?
