Momentum.

Momentum.

There's a friend that is close to Richard Branson, Lance Armstrong, Jeff Bezos, Michael Phelps, Bill Gates, and every other superachiever.

His name is Big Mo.

Big Mo (or what you may commonly call momentum) is hard to unleash, but once you are able to harness it, it can catapult you to heights you never imagined.

The only to trigger Big Mo is through long and sometimes hard effort, repeated over time.

Inconsistency is the only thing that can kill Big Mo, and once it’s dead, you would have to start all over to get it functioning.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
