“I feel like nothing can stop me at the moment.”
“I feel like it’s so hard to get anything moving right now.”

These are two statements I’ve heard the same person make at various points, and I’m sure you might relate to one or both of them. At times, feeling like you are pushing and experiencing friction at every turn, while at other times, feeling like momentum has taken over the wheel.  

Everyone loves that sensation of just flying through their work with everything they do seeming to have the golden touch. But what most don’t realize is that this type of impact is created.

In reality, the heavy mechanical wheel of progress can take significant effort to move. It can feel sluggish, difficult, and exasperating at times. However, once it does start moving, that heavy wheel can produce a force all its own — moving with seemingly no effort — unleashing the flywheel effect.

Achieving growth and success that outpaces the effort you put in is the goal of almost everyone in every area of life. Ultimately, that’s what the flywheel effect in business is all about. You don’t want a career that feels like a slog at every turn, a business that feels constantly uphill, or even a relationship that is *constant* work. 

You want seemingly effortless growth; the ability to lock into flow; and momentum that builds, compounds, and creates its own magic. So what does it take to get your own flywheel humming along? Here’s how to set it up.
