If you feel stuck in your life that can be a horrible feeling, regardless of how good your life is. When I first got married and had kids I finally saw clearly the long span of my life ahead of me, and all the lives I wouldn’t live… it was pretty jarring. The cure, for me, was re-realizing just how lucky I am, despite my shortcomings. Listen to the news and pretend it’s you. Bask in your luck that it’s not. There is a technique called “self authoring” that I recommend for anyone stuck like this. Write down your own story - just a few pages is fine. It’ll do you wonders to get your own story straight. I can’t explain why it’s so motivating. That and no avocado toast!!
