Hi Samuel,
There is a quote from Eclhart Tolle that say something along the lines of “if you are in an unpleasant situation, you can either remove yourself away from it, change it or accept it.” Having been in a similar situation before, there is nothing like that feeling of being stuck. It drained all the passions I have in life and my every action was dictated by my fear of failure. Sure I hated what I was doing and I want more but what if I don’t succeed?
My advice: it’s ok. It’s ok to fail, to make mistakes, to have a heart full of passions and break it a few times along the way as long as you are moving forward because that’s what living is about.
So go out there and do something that you enjoy. Life is amazing when you don’t subscribe to someone else’s plan.
