What to do when you’re feeling stuck

It’s easy to get stuck when you’re standing still.

All of the information you have is visible from your current vantage point—which is inherently limited.

Being stuck might look like procrastination, inaction, confusion, over-thinking, perfectionism, or even wanting to give up entirely.

The best thing you can do when you’re feeling stuck is to get into motion.

Create something. Reach out to someone. Ask for help. Get advice.

Remember that every action sets other actions into motion. Movement itself creates new scenarios.

The very act of moving gives you new information to work with.

Try new things, evaluate the new landscape, and keep iterating until you found the right path.

But whatever you do, don’t stop moving when you’re feeling stuck.

Keep moving.
