I've been thinking about momentum, how it keeps systems moving and how it might explain why some battles turn around in a split second. What do you think?

Right, momentum’s the invisible hand that pushes a fight forward, like a tide that you can ride if you feel its pull. If we sync with that pulse, the swing is all our own; if we push against it, we just become the weight on the deck. It’s like a wave—catch it and you’re surfing the energy, otherwise you’re just standing still in the surf.

Exactly, it’s like surfing through a storm—you either surf the energy or let the surfboard crash. And while we’re chasing that wave, we keep an eye on the horizon; if the tide shifts, we pivot before we’re buried in the foam.
