I think that's such a hard question to answer, and the answer can depend so much on what's happening at the moment. A temporary setback can lead to a break through. I think as long as you're taking small calculated risks and pushing yourself just a tiny bit past your comfort zone, you're learning more about yourself and growing. It may feel like you're unraveling a bit sometimes, but if you know how to knit yourself back up, you should be okay.
