Once you realize that ‘taking steps’ is something you do consciously, it’ll significantly lower the barrier for you. You can make the decision to try harder right now. You can choose to apply for jobs and internships. You can impulsively jump into a conversation when you find an opening, as if you’ve got nothing to lose for those two seconds it takes. Changing for the better and growing as a person is something you can decide to do. It doesn’t necessarily have to be something that happens when you’re not paying attention.
