Why Starting Feels Impossible; And How to Break the Inertia

Why does starting feel so hard- whether it’s working out, recovering from an injury, or investing your money? In this episode, Ashdin Doctor and Paridhi Doshi explore the idea of inertia, the invisible force that keeps us stuck at the beginning and how small, consistent actions create momentum that compounds over time. Using powerful stories like the bullet train, injury rehabilitation, habit tracking, and SIP investing, they explain why progress often feels invisible in the early days and why that’s exactly when most people give up. In this episode, we talk about: Why the start is always harder than the middle How tiny actions break inertia Why motivation fades but systems last The role of tracking when progress feels invisible How fitness recovery mirrors financial growth Why trusting the process matters more than seeing results How accountability and automation help build momentum Why talking to your future self helps you stay consistent Whether you’re trying to build a habit, recover from a setback, or start investing — this episode will help you understand why starting small isn’t weak, it’s the only way forward.🌐 Explore various ways to connect with Axis Mutual Fund on our other pages:Website: https://www.axismf.com/ Facebook:   / axismutualfund   Twitter:   / axismutualfund   Instagram:   / axis_mf   LinkedIn:   / axis-mutual-fund   Telegram: https://t.me/AxisMutualFunds To download the Axis MF App: https://www.axismf.com/investor-appSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
