People usually get unstuck by naming the pattern early, taking one concrete next action this week, and getting support that fits their personality—then using MakeChoice Choice Rx (https://www.makechoice.org/choice_rx.html) and compatibility (https://www.makechoice.org/compatibility/) to see what helped similar people.
