You're Not Stuck. You're Refusing the Call.

Joseph Campbell in The Hero's Myth. There's 3 components to the hero's journey. Number one, you receive a call to adventure, to exit your comfort zone, to become the next best version of you. Now, you get big calls, but you also get micro calls all day, every day. The hero almost always refuses the call. Nothing happens until you're willing to take those first courageous steps off the beaten path. Then basically You face dragons. Now, important point here. George, when he talks about his own story dealing with his addiction to alcohol and heroin, and he's now like basically 40 years in recovery, that hell was training. The dragons we face, the challenges that we are challenged to overcome, are what forge our strength. Then the third part is we return. We return transformed. We come back and we serve, having answered the call, faced dragons, and becoming a better version of ourselves.
