What to Do When You Feel Stuck (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If you’ve been reading these articles for a while, you know that much of the SAGE orientation begins with recognizing that we are always making meaning. Something happens, we interpret it, and the meaning we make influences how we feel, what we notice, and what seems possible to us. And we can get better at this. We can learn to recognize the meanings we are making and, usually, make meaning in ways that are more constructive, more empowering, and more useful.But what happens when you can see th
