"I'm in another rut now. But I have managed this before so what works: Figuring out what isn't working and why. If you don't know what you really want, what's important and what isn't working you won't recognize opportunities or be able to take action. This might involve therapy etc as it isn't easy to do a Stocktake of your life.
"Exploring the options: look at job vacancies, study opportunities, real estate online, online dating, take a holiday to try a new location... whatever it takes to rule out some possibilities and carefully consider others.
"Recognize opportunities and take the first steps! This is the commitment stage. Apply for that exciting opportunity. Put your house on the market!
"Follow through. Do the Mahi (work) as we say in my country. There's a lot of work in changing your life.
"Celebrate success, recognize that it is going to be completely different to what you expected but hopefully in a wonderful way.
"For me, I bought a house, changed careers and retrained within 3 years the first time. The second one was all about emotional growth and I lost a lot of weight. This time I had a plan at the beginning of 2020 but things happened and I sheltered in place for 2 years so now is the time to reconsider it and I'm in the exploring the options stage. Ironically I wanted a quieter, less frantic life."
Sometimes it just works out like that.
