Overview
If you feel like you're being held back in some way, do not put 'external forces' at the top of your list of possible causes. No one is affecting your life as much as you might think, so do not attribute to others a power they don't have. Work-wise, the authority figures in your daily routine have nothing to do with this stuck-in-the-mud feeling you have. And if a relationship seems stalled before it even gets out of the starting gates, admit to yourself that it was probably never meant to be.
