Community: Something you want to do

Each week, we gather our community’s wisdom. This week, we asked:

What’s something you want to do, but feel like you can’t?

"I would like to recover from my eating disorder which is with me since I was 8 years old. I’m 29 now."

"I’ve always wanted to be a professional writer. I have several novels and songs of my own but just share them with my friends."

"Go karaoke-ing."

"I really want to start a podcast but I feel like no one would listen to it and I’m scared/shy about posting about it on social media since I know that there are a lot of hateful people out there in the internet world."

"Take more consistent actions towards executing my projects. I feel like I get these sudden "oh okay, let's get moving" exciting moment where I "finally" make a move, but never continue on a consistent way to see them flourish naturally, but instead I get back to doing other stuff until I have one of those moments again. So the progress is in fits and starts."

“Speak up to my parents about specific things.”

“Changing my career path.”

“Be a working student. I have a chronic illness.”

“Grow my business.”

“Travel!”

“I want to tell someone I love them.”

“Accept myself wholeheartedly.”

“Land a job in the current market.”

“Act in big productions.”

“Learn to sew.”

“Write a memoir.”

“Spend less of my time and energy on my job, and more on enjoying life.”

“Become a people manager as a new mom.”

“Start a coffee shop.”

“Write a good short story.”

“Leave my job and go freelance.”

“Travel alone.”

“Open my own business.”
