Simple Harmonic Motion is actually a concept from physics and kinematics. (Yep, I’m throwing it back to my undergrad!) It describes the repeating motion of a system in which the restoring force perfectly opposes the displacement, so that the system consistently oscillates around its equilibrium.
Now, you might be wondering… “What?!”
It’s a metaphor, I promise. Just hear me out.
Imagine a perfect spring bouncing around its neutral, half-stretched state. Or imagine a pendulum swinging back and forth, never slowing down or stopping. These are examples of Simple Harmonic Motion.
While the system has highs and lows, and it’s always on the move, that motion is predictable. It’s in control. It’s organized. It’s simple. And the force acting on it, rather than pushing it beyond its limits, actually drives it forward (and backward) in a consistent, efficient way.
This is the vision for your life.
Your life will have highs and lows, and the forces acting on you — your health, wealth, relationships, and circumstances — can drive you toward a sustainable, simple harmonic experience.
All you have to do is identify, analyze, and organize those forces in your life. Find ways to make them work for you, and soon enough, they’ll be pushing you in the exact direction you need to go. You’ll find your perfect equilibrium. And from there, who knows what you can dream and accomplish!
