since we don't have an office, it's easy to get disconnected. we use the momentum thread to update each other on every significant victory – signing new clients, progress with investors, development updates – it's the stuff that isn't really worth a phone call or a separate email, but is worth mentioning. [i haven't used Yammer, though i suppose this is similar].

point is, all those little victories add up. momentum doesn't happen with one push, it's every little push along the way that gets you speeding 'high and to the right.'

The laws of physics are always at work & present in everything we do. Well said.. especially “with momentum it's difficult to stop” ; it's what many forget while trading.
