Why you get stuck after deciding to change is simpler than you think. We have circled around the moment you realise that one income isn\u2019t safe like a hungry shark circles a group of surfers out on their boards. We are fully aware now that we are up shit creek without a paddle. And that in order to make things work \u2026 we have to DO something.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"why<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Paralysis sets in because the voices around us are so loud, so competitive, so urgent that for a hot minute our 9-5 looks peaceful again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every person you come across in your quest tells you their business is the fastest growing, the best paying, the most rewarding. Yet when you sit with the information you have\u2026something doesn\u2019t quite add up. To you it doesn\u2019t look like you can do this business in \u2018pockets of time\u2019 or \u2018without any tech skills at all\u2019. You can\u2019t even get to the login page for the offer without a degree in IT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you sort the wheat from the chaff? What actually fits into your life?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I believe this is exactly where people get stuck after deciding to change. So stuck that they do nothing at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And in that void sits a lot of disappointment and even a touch of desperation. The saddest thing is the next time we get inspired to try, that previous inactivity is stirred up again and the inner voice speaks loudly:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018You have been there\u2019
\u2018You can\u2019t do this\u2019
\u2018You are not the right person\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Around and around we go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Waiting for the full plan to land in our lap. For the perfect sequence to be presented to us on a silver platter with a sprinkle of glitter. With absolute clarity and steadfast proven outcomes and statistics\u2026and of course, the right product or service. Finally, something we can actually stand behind. We can even recommend this to our closest friends\u2026because the last 10 things we investigated\u2026oh those were not quite the deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In waiting for this perfect \u2018thing\u2019 we waste so much time and opportunity\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

we fuck it up without even being in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why you get stuck after deciding to change in real life<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Because if you\u2019re honest, it\u2019s not that you don\u2019t have options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s that none of them feel clean enough.
Simple enough.
Safe enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So you hover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You read.
You compare.
You open another tab like this one might finally be the one that makes sense.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And suddenly, you\u2019re back where you started. The frustrating part is you can see it happening \u2014 and still feel stuck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not because nothing exists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But most people don\u2019t realise what\u2019s actually keeping them stuck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because nothing feels like it fits into your actual life. That\u2019s exactly why you get stuck after deciding to change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wrote more about this shift <\/a>when I realised why going deeper wasn\u2019t actually making me safer anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And that\u2019s the part most advice completely ignores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
