If You Feel Stuck, Ask Yourself These Questions

They work every time

I know what it feels like to be stuck. I know the frustration, the exhaustion, the maddening loop of trying to push forward while feeling like you’re sinking deeper.

I’ve been there more times than I can count—trapped in my own mind, convinced that no amount of effort would shake the heaviness off my shoulders.

But after countless cycles of feeling stuck, I started to notice patterns. I realized that every time I hit this wall, it wasn’t just about my external circumstances. It wasn’t about a lack of motivation, mental exhaustion, or feeling disconnected from myself. No. There was something deeper.

So, I started asking myself questions—real, raw, and sometimes uncomfortable questions. And when I dared to answer them honestly, the stuckness started to dissolve.

If you feel stuck right now, I invite you to ask yourself these same questions. They’re not magic, but they have been my lifeline, my flashlight in the fog. And they just might be yours too.
