1 00:00:05,881 --> 00:00:15,401 Speaker 1: Appote production. Hi, I'm Jennifer Cray. Welcome to your evening mantra. 2 00:00:17,521 --> 00:00:21,480 Speaker 1: If it's safe to do so, close your eyes or 3 00:00:21,521 --> 00:00:31,001 Speaker 1: lower your gaze. Relax your eyes, relax your ears, relax 4 00:00:31,041 --> 00:00:38,840 Speaker 1: your jaw, relax your shoulders down, and bring your attention 5 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:49,761 Speaker 1: to your breath, drawing your breath down into your belly. 6 00:00:52,001 --> 00:00:56,401 Speaker 1: Working on something you love can be a bit like 7 00:00:57,121 --> 00:01:04,681 Speaker 1: starting a flywheel. Turning a huge metal disk weighing over 8 00:01:04,761 --> 00:01:12,761 Speaker 1: two thousand kilos takes an insurmountable amount of effort to turn. 9 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 1: The first rotation excruciatingly slow, brow sweating work to move 10 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:32,041 Speaker 1: only mere centimeters, and so it continues until around the 11 00:01:32,161 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: fifth or sixth turn, when the wheel itself starts to 12 00:01:37,481 --> 00:01:49,881 Speaker 1: gain momentum. Rotating the wheel becomes a bit easier. At 13 00:01:49,921 --> 00:01:57,201 Speaker 1: some stage, there's a breakthrough where the flywheel wooshes forward, 14 00:01:58,161 --> 00:02:06,641 Speaker 1: its heavy weight now helping rather than hindering. Faster and 15 00:02:06,761 --> 00:02:15,601 Speaker 1: faster it goes with unstoppable momentum. To find the part 16 00:02:17,161 --> 00:02:24,641 Speaker 1: that started the momentum is almost impossible. It's an accumulation 17 00:02:25,081 --> 00:02:31,761 Speaker 1: of all the past effort. The hardest part was making 18 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:38,561 Speaker 1: a start and sticking with it. Imagine if you quit 19 00:02:39,441 --> 00:02:47,001 Speaker 1: before the momentum kicked. In today's mantra, I keep on 20 00:02:47,601 --> 00:02:54,241 Speaker 1: keeping on repeat to yourself, either out loud or in 21 00:02:54,281 --> 00:03:01,921 Speaker 1: your mind. I keep on keeping on Follow us on 22 00:03:02,001 --> 00:03:05,281 Speaker 1: Instagram at your morning mantra. Yeah,
