Momentum

That's the word I came up with while thinking of what to call this pattern of winning and losing. It might even have influence over fate, nobody can be sure though.

Remember Newton's Cradle, watch a video if you have forgotten. It was made to demonstrate the conservation of momentum and energy but those spheres swinging inspired me with this idea.

Let's think about Newton's Cradle this way, imagine the left side as bad things and the right side as good things happening. A sphere swinging to the right side will eventually start swinging to the left until swinging towards the right again. Good things will eventually come to an end and bad things will start happening. However bad things will also end and good things will start happening again. This is how I think balance is being kept.

But this is just an idea, not important or useful in your daily life of course... What you need is something more practical. Let me explain about momentum more.

I have told you that those series will eventually end to change places. But how long do they last? Do they have a limit? Can I use these to my advantage? These are the questions you should be asking.

You must be familiar with the term " force " in physics. If you applied force you could affect the spheres in Newton's Cradle. The thing is, in life, by living, we are constantly applying the force. Whatever we do applies force for different directions, towards the bad or towards the good series of events.

Changing your actions will make you stop applying that same force. If you think something else, something different from what you were thinking about before, you will be applying a different force. It takes tremendous willpower to maintain the same force but if you can do it, you will be able to extend the good ones or stop the bad ones. In a way you will be able to control fate itself.

However, never forget that you won't always be able to stop these series of events by applying force like that. At such times, just accept defeat and minimalize your losses until it's time for " good " things to happen.
