On: Ask HN: When you feel stuck in life

[ruffrey]

There have been times when I used a goal as a distraction from other stuff. When it was completed, I could no longer avoid things.

Other times I have reached a big goal and not been making new goals to complete next.

In either case, for me the solution involves getting quiet and writing out how I feel. YMMV, i am fairly introverted and work things out internally.
