You may want to give up or do something drastic with your appearance and that is totally normal! You being aware of this feeling is what is important and what will help you on this journey. Below are three tips/ qualities to practice that could aid in the process of becoming unstuck:
PATIENCE
The moment you feel stuck ,take a step back and tell your self, "it is okay!". Because it is. it is okay to have a temporary blockage. This blockage could mean that you should focus on another part of your life or career. Try not to be so hard on yourself. Knowing when to take a step back and relax is key.You are going to burnout/ lose it, if you are constantly thinking of ways to get unstuck and you are being hard on your self. Normally when you are patient with the process, of whatever journey you are on, you are more likely to take your time. when you take your time you will be able to analyze the situation better. When you are able to analyze the situation you can start to see your next move.
DISTRACTIONS
Once you are patient with yourself , finding a healthy distraction should come easy. You are already taking your time and trusting the process. Now you just need to focus on something or someone for awhile. An example of a healthy distraction is meditation. You can clear your head of all negative thoughts and this feeling of being stuck. Here is a 5 minute video that will help you clear your mind and get you back on track to being productive.
HAVE A NOTE PAD
Write it out!!! Write it out!!! Write it out!!! Get a notepad and keep it close. it can be on your phone or you can get one from your local dollar store. When you start to feel creative or productive you want to be ready.

Dream House
Coming from very little, ownership was a goal I have always set for myself. Being one of four siblings and always having to share, made me want to achieve that goal even more. I am a very creative person and the thought of building my house from the ground up makes my creative side tingle. It will be like I am a artist with a fresh canvas and endless possibilities. Also being a big family person having a place where I can set the foundation for my own is even more motivating for me to pursue my dream of building my house from the ground up, getting a fixer upper or a tiny house. I have dreamed of having them all but will be happy to have just one if it means I will finally be able to own my home. I started my ownership journey when I decided to become an entrepreneur and own my own business. Although it is a tough journey, knowing that I own it one-hundred percent sweetens the blows that come with being a entrepreneur. I believe that everyone should strive to own something in there lifetime to get that experience of ownership and sense of freedom it can bring.

Why Just Write Is The Best Advice You Don’t Listen To
Before the last 6 months, I hadn’t written anything that wasn’t for my job or university for a number of years. I wanted to write more, I used to write all the time just for fun. I used to write poems and short stories that were just for me. I used to show them to certain members of my family but it was the process of writing them that I really enjoyed.

I see your pain; I am hurt too. Let’s heal together!
Life is full of pain and hurt and so it is to be expected that everyone around us has been hurt one way or the other. While on the outside we all look whole and together, giving the impression that all is well and going the way we want it to, we know that is not always the case. We may seem to be all good on the outside but deep inside we are hurt and broken. Someone did something or something happened to us and that hurt us, and life has never been the same from then on.
