If you’re feeling stuck, like you don’t have any options or don’t know how to move forward as a dad or an entrepreneur, Charlie suggests these actions to get moving:
1) Acknowledge that you’re stuck, that it’s a thing in your head, and that making a change can break it up.
2) Speak it outside of your head to a mentor, spouse, coworker, or anyone you trust.
3) Bring your awareness to how you get unstuck and make note of that for later instances of the same problem.
