πŸƒ What Is Momentum Strategy and Why Does It Beat Regular Planning?

Strategy matters β€” but slow, static planning is broken in today's fast-moving world.

A 5-year plan made just 5 years ago would already be useless. AI changed everything.

Enter: Momentum Strategy

Momentum is something you can see in sports β€” you can feel when a team has it and when they lose it. Momentum strategy asks:

  • What do you do when you HAVE momentum?
  • What do you do when you DON'T?

The Two Emotions You Must Manage

  • Courage β€” taking risks, moving fast, being bold
  • Fear β€” playing it safe, worrying about losing what you have

The skill is turning fear down and courage up.

Quick gut check: If you are not sure whether you have momentum right now... you do not. When you have it, it is crystal clear.
