Where do you feel stuck mate?
That's a great question. Somehow on multiple levels...

First, as the thread implies I do not see the opportunities to pursue. The ones I have pursued turned up badly. Maybe ignorance, maybe giving up too early but problably wanted to project my own reasons why something should work into the marketplace. I'm kind of in a bubble because of some past decisions not many social connections left and due to health reasons cannot do sports or a lot of activities (f*cked up my back and now I'm restricted in how much I can lift/how long I can sit and even stand, need constant movement and change in position from time to time)
Second, the things I'm doing feel as if they lead nowhere and as if I get nowhere. Time and life feels to slips through my fingers and week after week, month after month passes and I do not get anywhere. Maybe I'm too impatiant. All the people here talking about taking action and I sometimes see how fast some people move and this gets me then...

I do say this because this is the situation not to complain or not to feel sorry for myself. I do take steps to fix what can be fixed but also these do feel like they lead nowhere and I'm wasting a lot of energy and time.
