When you’re feeling stuck, it’s difficult to know what to do in order to move forward. Most times, all you need is clarity about what’s holding you back and how to get past it. Here are five powerful principles that help you do just that:

One of the reasons many people are stuck is that they underestimate the power of small, incremental changes.

When we hear about someone who has achieved success, we tend to fixate on the outcome.

• Winning an Olympic gold
• Publishing a bestselling novel.
• Graduating at the top of the class.
• Making $10k/month.

Rarely, if ever, do you hear about the process:

• The hours of practice spent honing their skill
• The episodes of failure and feeling like an impostor
• Sleepless nights of study and research.

Success often doesn’t come from a one-off giant leap but through a continuous process. It’s the result of having a goal and being committed to taking small steps every day to make it a reality.
