Culture

By Leo Babauta

In much of our lives, we get stuck in a kind of holding pattern — things aren’t moving forward, we’re doing the same things every day, holding ourselves back because of doubts, uncertainty, fear, indecision.

That’s totally OK! It’s a very human thing, to stay in our comfort zones … but at some point, we start to want to move our lives forward in some meaningful way. We want to get unstuck, and make things happen.

It can feel really overwhelming to get out of this holding pattern, and there are so many decisions to make and steps to take that it can feel incredibly complicated.

But it doesn’t have to be complicated. It can actually be made pretty simple.

The simple way is by fully committing yourself.
