The state of being inert; disinclination to move or act. physics. the tendency of a body to preserve its state of rest or uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force. an analogous property of other physical quantities that resist changethermal inertia.
https://daringtolivefully.com/overcome-inertiahttps://www.artistsnetwork.com/art-inspiration/how-to-overcome-inertia/The law of inertia states that it is the tendency of an object to resist a change in motion. That is, an object at rest will stay at rest, unless it is acted on by an external force. The same is true of an object in motion.
Think of a soccer ball lying on the ground. The soccer ball will not move from that spot, unless someone kicks it. When the ball has been kicked and it’s moving through the air, it won’t stop until the force of gravity forces it to drop down to the ground; once it’s rolling on the ground, it will continue rolling until friction forces it to come to a standstill.
What this means, when it comes to goal achievement, is the following:
If at present you come home from work, grab a bag of chips, lie down on the couch, and turn on the TV, you’ll have a tendency to continue doing just that. Getting yourself to go out for a jog as soon as you get home from work, instead of plopping down on the couch, requires that you overcome inertia.
If you want to start getting up half an hour earlier in order to start a writing practice, you have to overcome inertia.
If you’re bored at your job and you’re thinking of starting a new business, you need to overcome inertia in order to create a business plan and start taking the action that’s necessary to get a new business started.
When there’s a goal that you want to achieve, one of the biggest hurdles that you’ll face is overcoming inertia in order to get yourself to start moving in the right direction. The good news is that once you initiate movement, the law of inertia helps you to keep moving and to continue taking action.
