"Push The Truck"

This piece is about momentum in life. Before the days of power steering, there was a saying that "it's easier to steer a moving truck".

If you've ever driven a car without power steering, you'll know that it's a bear to turn the steering wheel when at a stand-still, but once you pick up momentum, you can easily steer the car whichever way you want to go.

​

I think the same is true for life. If you feel stuck in your ways doing the same thing day-in-day-out, changing your trajectory can feel impossible; but once you take that first step in a new direction, and then another, sooner or later your new path will become the habit, and it will feel as though that's the way things have been all along. 

​

All it takes is that initial effort of breaking routine and starting something new. If you're feeling stuck, PUSH THE TRUCK.
