Everyone gets confused about how to move forward. Even those who are motivated and organized in their process will find themselves getting stuck or unsure of what path makes the most sense for growth. Life can knock you out, creating confusion and feelings of inadequacy. It doesn’t matter who you are, you will reach a point where you are unable to see the horizon of life.

While these feelings are uncomfortable, the real problem is just giving up and stopping due to them or because you can’t find the perfect solution to the problem. Usually, there is no perfect solution and what needs to be done is to just pick something and start moving again. That’s right - Pick Something- as long as it’s not harmful to you, just get moving. Sitting still for too long will only invite trouble. Get moving towards somewhere you think you should be heading, even if it doesn’t feel totally right.

Often, once you start, a path will become clear and open for you. This path may wander away from your current destination, and it may feel like wasted time by going a different way, but you may have done a service for yourself by moving, doing, and creating instead of sitting in confusion or loss. Often times just getting started doing something will allow you to achieve more, or at least fall back into the habits and expectations for yourself.

Sitting still, thinking, wondering, doing nothing, will only make you feel thin and confirm to yourself that you cannot do or complete what you want in life. So, when life slides in the wrong direction, or knocks you over, don‘t sit in despair, but get up and pick something, anything, that will set your feet moving forward once again.
