It's occurred to me recently that you're either starting or quitting.
There's really nothing true about the idea of "standing still." If it feels like you're standing still, it's just that you're starting slowly or quitting slowly.
If you feel trapped, figure out where you're pointing and step on the gas. Either way you should accelerate.
It's a bit like Red said in Shawshank: "Get busy living, or get busy dying."
