What To Do

In any situation, the best thing you can do is the right thing; the next best thing you can do is the wrong thing; the worst thing you can do is nothing. – Theodore Roosevelt

Feel frozen and “can’t” act?

Ask yourself what you have, that you want more (than what you say you want), and see if it’s worth being stuck for . . . and then act (somehow, someway).
