Entrepreneur Ben Chestnut on the importance of momentum:
"Never sacrifice momentum. I might know a better path, but if we've got a lot of momentum, if everyone's united and they're marching together and the path is O.K., just go with the flow. I may eventually nudge them down a new path, but never stop the troops mid march."

Momentum is often talked about during sports matches where a surge of effort is maintained for a period of time so that it overwhelms an opposition. It's palpable and emotional, that feeling, but that surge is tough to sustain.
Momentum ebbs and flows through a match. Same in a school setting. It's rare to have a situation where 'everyone's united and they're marching together'. I've felt it a few times in my teaching career.
It's great to be a part of it when it happens.
