Inertia- The dictionary describes it as "the state of being inert,disinclination to move or act."
In Physics, its definition is "the tendency of a body to preserve its state of rest or uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force or an analogous property of other physical quantities that resist change."

So if we were to apply this same premise in our day to day lives, it wouldn't be very difficult to see that we are guilty of inertia in many, many things. Think about it honestly and I'm sure that you will see exactly what I'm talking about. Sometimes in many more doses than one might care to admit, if only to yourself.I'm using my own example its the easiest way to illustrate my point.Lets say that I've been planning to start writing that next chapter for the last one month but somehow haven't got around to doing it- of course there were so many other more immediate things that I had to deal with.
Or ....
Or...
Or...
I'm sure you get the picture.
After some thinking I decided to tackle the problem- albeit in bite sized pieces. For the last few days, I've started writing more regularly on this blog and my newer one called 'Food For Thought' and I know for a fact that the speed and quantum of my writing is coming back to me.
Slowly but surely.
I'm equally aware of the fact that one of these days, sooner rather than later, I will find myself starting and completing that next chapter I've been meaning to.
So here it is above- my very basic management technique for dealing with inertia.All it takes is that first step. The rest will follow.
Never despair, it really is 'you' who is the best person to deal with your own issues.So take that first step today and be confident that you are doing the right thing!
