The two sound very similar, but it turns out they're really quite different.
Being in motion means you are doing something. Maybe you've spent the last five hours researching something before you start tackling it.
Taking action is when you actually decide to do the thing.
I've been feeling like a lot of my work lately has just been motion.
But I think to have action, you have to be moving.
Getting stuck in motion can be a pretty bad place to be. But I would argue getting caught standing still is worse.
What's one thing that has helped you go from standing still to being in motion, and then from motion to action?
