Newton’s Law of Inertia: Every object persists in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless it is compelled to change that state by forces impressed upon it.

Today is the 367th birthday of Sir Isaac Newton and let it be the first day you move out of inertia about Web 2.0 and into the Law of  Acceleration with Web 2.0.

Here are Six Ways to Stave Off Social Media Inertia:

1. Stop lying under someone else’s apple tree passively waiting for the Web to drop on you, instead start planting your own seeds on the Web.

2. Stop thinking your web presence will grow without you being a part of it. If you’re not digging your own soil, planting your own seeds and watering your own online thought-garden, then you are not participating!

3. Stop kvetching about how everyone else’s orchards are bigger and it’s too late for you to grow your own platform. As everything continues to move online, you need to do so as well.

4. Start tweeting so you can ensure lots of good “traffic” rain to your site or blog through meaningful engagement.

5. Stop wasting time on the Web. Set up a growing plan and stick to it. Keep moving, growing and seeding new ideas and opportunities.

6. Don’t let the force of fear paralyze keep you from finding new ways to build community online.

7. Stop being defined by your age or place in career, and start becoming ageless on the Web through your unique insight and wisdom.
