How to get unstuck? 5 Secrets from research.
This is how to get unstuck:
Simplify And Pivot: If you’re trapped in a depthless dystopia, the first step isn’t to totally overhaul your life. See if there’s one “friction point” you can adjust to pivot to a more promising path.
New Idea Generation: If you do need to overhaul things, generate tons of ideas. And then when you’re utterly empty, generate even more. Luck = preparation + more possibilities.
Experiments: If you just keep thinking and don’t test those ideas you will learn everything about yourself except the truth. Explore and Exploit. Keep saying “yes” until something clicks and then start saying “no.”
The Muddy Middle: It can feel like an epic Greek myth — but you’re Sisyphus. We always slow down in the middle. So break it up into sub-goals. You can’t get stuck in the middle if there is no middle.
