You may feel down and stuck right now. You may feel like your life is going no where and you will never succeed.
We've all felt that way at one point in our lives. I felt that way for a while actually. I felt like I was stuck, but I didn't really mind that feeling as long as my daughter was happy, healthy, taken care of and would get everything she wanted and needed.
Then I made the decision to go back to school and I knew it would be difficult to do but I knew I had to try. We moved to a different state which I knew would make it a lot more difficult because I was leaving all my family that has been helping me with my daughter. I knew I had to try though. We then moved again into our own apartment after a few months and it's our very first time ever being on our own.
I worry all the time about whether we really can do this. Afford all our bills, plus stuff my daughter needs, daycare, food, gas, car repairs, me working less to go to school, my fiance working more to compensate, and everything else going on in our crazy lives. But I still know that we have to try.
Doing big moves, or taking big steps in life is stressful and scary but if you don't try then you aren't truly living your life to the fullest. Those struggles and stress are what teach you and make you a stronger person. So go back to school, move, ask for that raise, apply for that job, and do what you keep wanting to do but don't because you're scared things won't work out. You may struggle and stress out but that's okay, you will grow stronger from it and will succeed as long as you try.
