“In thrust we trust.”

Reportedly a Pratt & Whitney (a jet engine manufacturer) motto.

Also a thing you’ll hear from kettlebell practitioners.

Hips drive, arms guide.

Whether you’re talking about standing an F-16 on its tail, cleaning a kettlebell into the rack, or finalizing a project at work: the principle is the same: what got you there in the first place?

It’s not that last slide edit, or pulling the bell into place, or that list twitch of the joystick.

It’s the main thing: the engine, the hips, the team.

Trust the thrust.

The rest is just details.
