You may know that something needs to change, yet every option feels heavy. Thinking does not bring clarity. Motivation does not arrive. And the harder you push yourself, the more stuck you feel.

How to Think When You Feel Stuck is a calm, reflective book for these moments.

Rather than offering motivation or productivity advice, it explores the inner conditions that cause movement to stall - and how momentum returns when pressure is reduced rather than increased.

Drawing on psychological insight and lived human experience, this book examines:

• Why being stuck is not laziness, fear, or failure • How the mind enters freeze mode under prolonged strain • Why overthinking often deepens paralysis • The misconception that clarity must precede action • How too many choices quietly exhaust decision-making • Why small, reversible movement restores capacity • When waiting is wiser than forcing decisions • What stuckness may be protecting beneath the surface • How to move forward without urgency or self-criticism

Written in a measured, humane voice, this book does not promise transformation or quick answers. It offers understanding - and through understanding, a way for movement to return naturally.

For readers who feel paused rather than lost, overwhelmed rather than broken, this book provides clarity without pressure.
