Shark Theory

Just Keep Moving: Momentum Over Comparison


Listen Later

The simplest advice often carries the most power: just keep moving.

Show Notes: In this episode of Shark Theory, Baylor unpacks how a simple phrase from a training partner—"just keep moving"—has become a life philosophy. Whether in grueling Hyrox workouts, marathons, or the pursuit of personal and professional goals, momentum is built one step at a time.

Baylor also highlights the trap of comparison. It may look like others are ahead or behind you, but the truth is, you're not in the same race—they started in different places, on different stations, with different circumstances. Wasting energy measuring yourself against others robs you of the energy you need to invest in yourself.

As we approach the final stretch of the year, Baylor challenges you to stop waiting, stop comparing, and start moving—because momentum creates results, and results fuel motivation.

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

  • How to turn simple advice into applied life philosophy

  • Why progress comes from consistent small steps, not giant leaps

  • The danger of comparing your path to someone else's

  • How to build self-motivation through action and momentum

  • Why "forward is still a pace" is enough to change your trajectory

Featured Quote: "If you move, you get momentum. If you get momentum, you start to see results. And results become your motivation."
