I love all the points about reacting to other people's negativity. "Nobody can make you feel bad about you without your consent" it's up to us to put up boundaries and not engage further with negativity. It's hard I won't lie, but practice makes perfect. I really like the momentum log as well, reflecting on small moments help to gain clarity on what's working and what can be improved. Great message, thanks for sharing!
It took me a long time to figure out that the best response is no response more often than we assume it should be.
I was thinking about the momentum log in relationships, like with my kids. If we think about every interaction as a contributor or detractor to a goal (like a good relationship) it reframe things
I have recently started my Architecture undergrad degree and there’s been a lot of extreme lows and highs; both because of school and my personal life. Although I started with great momentum it seems constantly trying to deal with a steep learning curve and other aspects of my life has slowed down that momentum but reading this article has definitely put things in perspective for me. Thank you!
Thank you for this. One of the things my advisor told me for my PhD dissertation is that once you're knocked off the horse, it's brutal getting back on. So, no matter what happens, make sure you never get completely knocked off. Do something - even if it's a little bit - to preserver the momentum

Huge fan of arch students! Training is brutal but the skills you’ll pick up are invaluable and applicable to the creation of - pretty much - anything

Absolutely true — professor nailed it
