Stuck.

Thats exactly how I feel now. After i got out of treatment i got stuck in a cycle. Gym, work, home and isolate. At my job, the benefits are great but where I'm at the only way to progress is a Supervisor or Department manager and I aint in love with either idea, being stuck in an office. Its been taking a toll on my mental health and i can tell. Just sitting here at my desk for 3 hours will have me feeling brain dead or out of it by the end of the day and i just go home and watch tv or play games until i pass out to do it all over again. Work with a bunch of older ladies (couple dudes too) so nobody i can relate with too well so I kind of keep to myself.

Thankfully this is my last day here today and I start work as a chemical technician on monday. Will take a pay cut and have to restart my benefits with them, but I at least wont be cooped up in an office all day, work with some dudes closer to my age and get to travel often. After 3 months of training we will re negotiate my wage though so just have to do well with training then i should be making about the same money as i currently am with possibilities of quicker raises and a whole new list of things i can get promoted to after some time.

Really im just hoping this will give me some work experience that I can do other places in the states and work here a couple years then move out of Alaska and continue doing it elsewhere.
 
im not sure i am stuck.
i think i am a bit nervous about my next move.
its one of them.."maybe this is too big for me to handle alone"
cause it seems like everytime i get right to the launch...something always comes up that i missed and it sets me back a few weeks.
so i guess moving too slow is more the term.

some shit i just realized about me, where I stay ain't what motivates me. I'm in the northern part of my city. its sidewalkless roads and yards and oak trees and just country. country dont move me, when I'm in the congested buildings and homes city part of my city. I just feel more at home which makes me feel more inspired. just realized alot of time when I feel in that stuck mode like u said. it just cause I've existed outside of the element that sparks fire in me for too long.
 
Yup...so I moved.

One of the best decisions I've made. Had I not moved, I would've been stuck in the same rut. That was not a good feeling.

No drive
No real motivation to do anything
Being miserable all the time

Honestly the only thing that kept me active was riding around hittin up the chicks I was dealing wit. I had to break outta that.
 
Recently! It hit me so hard too because I know my purpose. I just feel stuck and I work a job that doesn’t allow me to work more towards my dreams and goals as I’d like.

I'll be honest tho...
Kandy t-shirt business is inspiring ...

ESPECIALLY with Goldie site.

You gotta think, most company websites are trash.

With selling shit in abw, the site already the shit, so that's half the battle. I wish I had something to sell in the abw store

I don’t fuck with nobody like that. I’d literally have to start cutting off my mama and family.

I’m stuck because of me.

kinda hard to read your post being distracted by you avi..

if you have free time...you owe it to yourself to work towards your goal.
jobs are loyal to production and profits.
only you are loyal to you.

Seems like many of us need growth but aren’t allowed. We ALL who feel this way need to make steps towards growth!

Technically we are here (on ABW) for a reason. We are our support system in so many ways.

Ignoring the first part lmao.

I definitely agree, I have some books to read on and order to start moving forward.
 
being content leads to being stuck, being stuck too long leads to self doubt and depression...

that’s the boat I’m on.

I’ve always felt I was a strong-minded individual, but for the past year and a half I’ve been down. It’s because I’ve allowed myself to become stuck and remain stuck. Selfish and careless choices. I’m unhappy w myself as an individual.

Alcohol is no longer a problem. I’m out of that position of stuck. Now I’m busy focusing on getting the other shit fixed so I can be completely unstuck.

a day is going to pass, so will weeks, months and years; so in 5 years, where do you see yourself? doing something different or the same? heard that recently and was like fuck, something so simple put into perspective lit a fire under my ass
 
i felt stuck in a relationship in my young twenties. Bitch was suicidal or played suicidal. Finally took a friend's advice and told her to kill herself. She ain't bite so at that moment Iknew she was full of shit and was using that to keep me there.
 
I observed a lot successful people.

Homelessness, grinding for years, knowing the right person, loosing everything, almost giving up, and the like were common things before they reached success.

Rarely, if ever, did I hear a person say that they did "X" that lead to "Z" and then they were successful over night. It took months and sometimes it took years.

Anderson Paak was fucking with music for 10 years before he met Dre. Eddie Griffin was homeless when he first came to Hollywood. Snoop Dogg threw his raps in the trash can before Dre gave him a shot.

Your dream is the same dream thousands, if not millions, are trying to accomplish. The ones that made it likely went through the same "stuck" phase as you did in the beginning. Everyone does at some point.

"Git gud" and keep going is all it really boils down too. The gate keepers are gone, but the bad part is also that the gate keepers are gone. You're out here competing with everyone else. You can be one of the folks that gives up or one of the folks that keeps going. And as I like to say, you might as well pursue something you like before the day you die.
