Keep Moving Forward: Why Progress Matters More Than Speed 

Writer's picture: Sarah HardySarah Hardy

“Keep moving forward” is one of my favourite quotes from The Walt Disney Company film Meet the Robinsons. It’s a simple yet powerful reminder to persevere, even when progress feels slow or challenges seem overwhelming.


Why Comparison Can Stall Your Progress


When things don’t move as quickly as we’d like, it’s easy to start comparing our journey to those around us. Maybe a friend’s career is skyrocketing, or a colleague seems to achieve their goals effortlessly. This comparison can lead to frustration, doubt, and even a loss of motivation.


But here’s the truth: progress doesn’t have to be fast to be meaningful. Even small steps add up over time, and forward momentum—no matter how slow—is always better than standing still.





The Power of Small Steps


Progress doesn’t always come in big leaps. Often, it’s the small, consistent steps that make the most significant difference. When you feel stuck or uncertain, remember:


  • Every step counts: Even the smallest action can create momentum.

  • Progress is personal: Your journey is yours alone, and there’s no one-size-fits-all timeline.

  • Growth happens over time: Slow and steady can often lead to deeper, more sustainable success.


How Coaching Can Help You Move Forward


If you feel stuck or unsure about your next steps, coaching can provide the clarity and direction you need. Working with a coach helps you:


  • Gain Perspective: Understand where you are and where you want to go.

  • Set Clear Goals: Identify what matters most and create an actionable plan.

  • Stay Accountable: Ensure consistent progress, no matter how small.


Coaching isn’t about quick fixes; it’s about creating sustainable momentum that aligns with your values and long-term vision.
