I am so conflicted and confused about my future. I feel stuck and paralyzed by indecision. How do I move forward when I have no support and can't seem to formulate a plan?

Moving forward can be tough, scary and difficult. The first step is really simple, just to make up a small goal for each day. It can be as small as, "I will clean my room today". Then forming a reward system when you reach each goal would be a great idea. Slowly as you meet your goals, a larger, long term goal may start to form for you. No matter what you do, no matter how small, you can make your time start moving forward again. :)

I really relate to this feeling of lack of support. It can feel like we are rudderless, and we can lack motivation without anyone there to cheer us on.. Making big plans is usually a recipe for failure, but recognising small things we could do to build ourselves back up is probably the way to go.

Speaking with a life coach might help you formulate a plan that will help you move forward. Sometime speaking with a good trusted friend can do the same.

Your future is going to be like that a lot of the time. I plan everything to the last detail and yet things change in my favor, whether I like it or not. I have had great changed and horrible ones. But that's what's so good about the future; it's unpredictable and you always have something new and nothing will truly stay with you forever. You don't need support all the time and that's okay, the whole adulting thing with me is still a work in progress and I'm okay with that. You will be okay and honestly, don't even worry one ioda about the future. You need to worry about the present and what you are doing now. Stop trying to be a day ahead when you can't even see that far. Take a breather and just take it one day at a time.

When feeling stuck and in doubt, go with your heart. With following your heart, you will always feel at peace and one with yourself. You will do what makes you feel most passionate and happy, rewarding others in return.

No one knows what the future holds. If we do we will be bored because we already know whats coming. The idea is to treat each day as present since not many has the chance to have this day and move forward from there.

Sometimes reflecting on the past can make us feel more confident about the future. When I feel stuck in life, it can really help to sit down with myself and ask how I would have liked to deal with a similar events I had gone through in the past, or how I would advise a close friend. Being conflicted with choices is quite common with me, but over time I have learned to trust myself a bit more with this stuff. What can help is putting things in different perspectives, asking "how would x affect y if I chose x?"
