We need friction to create movement

We need friction to create movement

Friction, a force to overcome, prevents us from starting–hesitation, contemplation, stagnation. Do we possess the fortitude to traverse obstacles?

When we concede to our circumstance, we excuse our agency. ‘I would, if I could only…’ allows us to remain inert. We transition from exploration to explanations.

Friction, a warning, conspires to stop us when we are in motion. Have we obtain skills and experience to identify signs of a stressed system, before it break? 

Increased pressure on the process, with no attention or maintenance prescribed, grinds work to a halt. Our systems burn out. 

Friction is resistance.
Overcome the gravity of the barrier and find traction.
Practice and cultivate intention.
