“If you’ve got severe anxiety, it may have created a goals vacuum in your life. It may seem like your anxiety problems have been so all-consuming that you haven’t focused much on anything else. This is understandable. Since overcoming anxiety involves moving toward something, not just moving away from anxiety, it’ll involve rediscovering what your goals are. You need to uncover the goals that genuinely light your fire, where pursuing them is worth tolerating the anxiety that they create.”
