Think of it this way. Suppose you have, say, six components in the flywheel, and you score your performance in each from 1 to 10. What happens if your execution scores are 9, 10, 8, 3, 9, and 10? The entire flywheel stalls at the component scoring 3. To regain momentum, you need to bring that 3 up to at least an 8.
Constant feedback loops improve the system as a whole and make for dynamic action feedback loops. This is the essence of Peers Inc miracle #3: The right people will appear.
Using the components you’ve identified (keeping it to four to six), sketch the flywheel. Where does the flywheel start—what’s the top of the loop?

He encouraged Bezos and the board not to react, but rather to sketch out the components of a flywheel and focus his team on pushing it every day.At Amazon, the flywheel c
“Inertia is the stubborn resistance of the universe to change. It’s the reason why objects at rest tend to stay at rest and objects in motion tend to stay in motion. You can think of inertia as the guardian of the status quo.
At its core, inertia is a property of mass. The more massive an object is, the more it resists changes to its state of motion
