You’ve had a setback. Make sure it doesn’t become a permanent disruption.
Your progress has been slowed, your momentum has been reduced. Yet that momentum continues to echo, and with a quick recovery you’ll get it back.
Rather than cursing the setback, put your energy into going beyond it. Instead of wishing it had never happened, adjust to the new circumstances.
You were previously moving forward at a good pace. Feel the power of that latent momentum, and get yourself going again in a positive direction.
The setback is now part of where you’re coming from, but it’s not where you’re going. Get back up, look ahead toward your objective, and begin to do what will take you there.
Sooner than you realize, whatever interrupted you will be a distant, fading memory. You can make it happen, and now is the time to act.
