Simple Mansion-Back to the Basics: How to get unstuck?

I feel stuck. In fact I always do and it is a state that I get myself into every so often. It's like there is this invisible wall which blocks me from moving forward. After much contemplation, I realized that I am avoiding doing or thinking about something, which is the biggest cause of stuckness. I feel stagnant because I am avoiding doing or thinking something that needs to be done or thought.

less time on social media and TV
commit myself to another e-course to learn something new
break some routine and be uncomfortable
be more socialising

It takes much courage to get unstuck and taking action is the only way for change to happen. To shake things up a little, here are some of the things I have started doing more regularly:
