I felt stuck towards the third quarter of 2024. Life seemed to be dragging, and no matter how much I tried to push forward, I felt like I was running in place.
I was anxious, constantly questioning my progress.
There had been no career change, and my earning potential had only slightly increased.
To make it worse, the stress and burnout were real. I was working twice as hard only to get the same outcome. It was exhausting.
At some point, I started wondering if I was doing something wrong. Should I change strategies? Was I missing something? Or was I simply not good enough?
It was a tough time in my life, and made even worse because i went through all that alone.
But then, I had a change in perspective.
I began to understand that just because I couldn’t see progress at the moment didn’t mean things weren’t moving.
Some changes happen beneath the surface before they become visible.
Looking back now, I see that even in that “stuck” phase, I was learning, refining my skills, and preparing for the next stage.
So if you’re feeling stuck, I get it. It’s frustrating, and it makes you question everything. But trust that sometimes, even in the stillness, you are moving forward. Keep showing up.
