The Stuck Is Self-Inflicted

Luck isn't the problem. The problem is that something in your life was supposed to turn months ago and you've been standing on the brake with both feet. You call it waiting for the right moment, or being realistic, or not wanting to make things worse. It's fear, and it has a schedule of its own — every day you don't act, the bad stretch gets one day longer. The cycle you're in isn't fate. It's maintenance. You keep feeding it by refusing the small, awkward, irreversible move that would change the shape of things. Today the drag feels heavier than usual. Good. That's the weight of a wheel you've been holding still. Let go of one spoke.}
