The Mindset of Feeling “Stuck” and How to Get Unstuck
In my experience, feeling stuck usually has less to do with lack of talent or opportunity and more to do with wanting to be somewhere faster than where you are right now.
It sounds like this:
- “If I could just finish these songs, then I could send them to labels and grow my Spotify.”
- “If I could just get the marketing videos done, then we’d get more clicks, downloads, and sales.”
- “If I woke up earlier, I could get more music done before work.”
All of these thoughts live in the future. They create the feeling that your real life and real progress haven’t started yet; that everything meaningful is just around the corner.
That’s where the feeling of being stuck actually comes from.
Because “being stuck” is not a reality, it’s a mindset.
