Momentum or Motivation?
👋 Hello again, Business Builders!
This week’s Business Builder Bulletin covers:
⚡ Why Motivation Alone Won’t Build Your Business
🛠️ The Power of Momentum in Daily Action
🚀 How Business Coaching Manchester Helps You Keep Moving Forward
Let’s begin with a quick story...
🏃 The Morning Run That Taught Me About Business
A few months back, I laced up my trainers for a morning run. The truth? I didn’t feel like it. I was tired, the weather was grey, and motivation was nowhere to be found.
But I told myself: “Just get started. Run to the end of the street and see how you feel.”
Ten minutes later, I’d found my rhythm. Twenty minutes in, I felt strong. By the time I got home, I’d smashed a 5K and felt brilliant.
The lesson? I didn’t need motivation. I just needed momentum.
And it’s the same in business.
💡 Why Momentum Beats Motivation Every Time
Motivation is great when you have it — but it’s unreliable. It comes and goes. If you only act when you “feel motivated,” your business will stall.
Momentum, on the other hand, is built by taking small, consistent actions that create energy, confidence, and results.
✅ Momentum is:
Sending that email you’ve been putting off
Making the sales call even when you don’t feel ready
Posting that piece of content your audience needs to see
Taking daily steps, however small, towards your bigger goals
Each small action compounds, building a business that moves forward — even on the days when motivation is low.
