1/ (7) Young lawyers often feel stuck in their career. They may try following exercise.

This exercise is called "20 Sentence Completion Exercise"

2/ Write, "I feel stuck in my life because ........ ".

Then complete this sentence 20 times. This will take out all worries from your mind and will put them on paper where you can see them.

3/ Then write, "I feel unstuck because .....".

Now, complete this sentence 20 times.

Here are some examples which have guided me :

4/ 1) I feel unstuck because I see that every cloud has a silver lining

2) I feel unstuck because even in a darkest night, there are stars shining in the sky.

3) I feel unstuck because I have stopped expecting favours from others.

5/
4) I feel unstuck because I have no desire to achieve more in less time.

5) I feel unstuck because I have stopped chasing illusions.

6) I feel unstuck because I have stopped complaining.

and so on.

5/ I read this exercise somewhere around 1999 on iternet.

I have tried this exercise many times. I can write first seven sentences very easily, but thereafter, the exercise becomes harder to complete.

6/ Let me know if this post gives you a tool to find ways to feel unstuck.
