Don't know what you plan to major in? Can't think of what to write for an upcoming essay? Not sure if you want a summer job or just want to see your friends? If you've answered yes to all of the following, you're not alone.

Lately, I feel that I've been stuck in the same position, not knowing how to move forward with big decisions in my life. Maybe this is because I have so much on my plate since my second semester of college is almost over, or maybe it's because I'm overthinking things.

Anyone who has been through this can attest and say that it's one of the worst feelings because you have no idea on how you'll get out of this ditch that you're stuck in, or if you'll even get out at all.

If you need a visual representation, just imagine yourself in bed, engulfed in all of the blankets you own, watching Netflix on your laptop and feeling like you can't move or respond to any of the messages on your phone, because you just have no motivation for anything.

But while all of this is true and very real, this feeling isn't permanent.

These tiny moments where we feel clueless about how to progress forward are only tiny bumps in the road that is our life. Just because we get over one doesn't mean that there won't be anymore along the way, but we are capable of conquering them. It might not be the easiest thing to do, but it's possible.

One way to make this easier is by surrounding yourself with the people that you love and care about the most.

Lately, I've found that by being around my closest friends has made things a lot easier and more peaceful instead of stressful, because sometimes when I hang out with them, I can sometimes find an answer to the problem I was trying to solve just from being with my friends. They can also help out by offering advice or insight, which is always more helpful to hear from someone you really trust.

Reaching out for help is another smart thing to do if you're feeling stuck. If you can't get past your writer's block for an essay, schedule a time to meet with your professor to go over things. Or if you feel indecisive about what kind of classes to take for next semester, talk to some of your peers about the classes they've taken and listen to what they'd recommend.

Asking for help might seem like a sign of weakness, but in reality, anyone is usually willing to help you out.

Finally, set some time for yourself to just let your mind wander and think things over. Go for a run, write in a journal, do some yoga, have a coffee break at Starbucks, the list goes on! Having time to yourself really lets you think things through and is a nice break especially when you're often surrounded by so many people on a large campus.

No matter what bump you're currently trying to get over, just know that you can and will move past it, and eventually figure things out. And even if it's not the result that comes out of it that you were hoping for, accept that everything happening in your life is happening for a reason that will soon be more clear to you.
