Karamo tells people stuck in unhappy situations that starting over isn't failure. You don't need to see the whole path ahead. Look down, take one small step each day, and build from there.
Chapters
It completely breaks my heart that you are in a space in your life where you do not realize that starting over is not a bad thing, that you don't realize that happiness doesn't have to come with all of this. And I'm not encouraging y'all to break up or anything like that. What I want you to do is, have you ever seen any relationships that ever been healthy? Not really growing up. None, yeah. Can you see your future being happy? Not really. It's hard. Imagine this, if you somewhere and you can't see the future ahead of you, it's hard to see it. But I'm gonna ask you this, if I tell you to look down, can you see the next first step in front of you? Mm-hmm. Can you see the next step you about to take? Yeah. You can see the next step, right? Mm-hmm. That's what I want you to remember is that you might not see the day when everything's gonna be happy, but you can see yourself taking one step a day. Okay. And if you take one step a day, one step a day, one step a day, you can get to a place where you can build your self-esteem, but you have to do the work, okay? Okay.
