I feel like fearing the future. I don't know. All of a sudden, I feel like scared of the future. I have just realized the reality of life. I should have accomplished many things. I should have saved a lot of money. I should have planned my future well. Now, I am fearing that one day I would be all myself. I need to survive. Oh, there are so many things that I want to do. First, I need to save and save. Second, I need to find a stable job. Third, I need to have a good insurance. I need to prepare for my life. I need to put an end of enjoying life so much. Like spending lots of money to unnecessary things. Going out too much with friends and so on. I have to think of my old age and my life in the future. Life is full of challenges. I need to put courage a lot.

To be honest, I get pretty tensed too when I think of the future. Everyone wants to be successful and so do i but there is always that one thing that keeps telling me what if I don't make it. It really freaks me out. But I have to believe in myself and move on to the future.

I feel like that most of the time too. I am fearing of hat I will become in the future because right now, I still haven't achieved anything. I feel so old already but at the same time I still feel unaccomplished. I fer that maybe in the future I am still like what I am today.

I have a tip for you. Earlier, me and my boyfriend were just talking about goals and such. I said to him I was always lazy and I still couldn't make myself find a job. So he told me that this week I should be able to get a job interview and if not, I'll have to face his consequences. I really hate to sing and my voice is really bad so he said that if I don't get a job interview this week, I'll have to sing to him a song that has a very high tune, that will make me motivated to finish my goal this week. You should make a close friend or a boyfriend to make consequences for you too. It helps to make us motivated.

I will try my best that I can make a huge change or difference in my life. Let us keep on trying and set goals. Let us work hard to achieve it. I am not dreaming much to be rich i just want to have a good life and good family.

tess really fearing is counter productive knowing what yo feel you must do can be overwhelming but taken step by step with courage not fear, you will get there. Relax as this kind of thinking can give you ulcers or heart disease.You can still enjoy life just not be a spendthrift. You need joy in your life always.You can plan for the future b
t we can only live for today.

That nice of you feeling to fear the future. At least you come to think of accomplishing things. At least you're thinking of saving and get rid of unnecessary expenses. It's never too late. Still you can prepare for your future. Good luck.

Last time, we got hit by an earthquake. I was so scared almost everyday that it might happen again. And now, recently, in my neighborhood, there were three fire accident happened already. Some families lost their homes and everything. I have never felt this fear before. But you know that's real life. whatever happens. We have to be strong and have faith in God.

Hi,
Everyone has fear of future in the mind. everyone is struggling for having success in life. All have to worry about the job, savings, investments and all that. As you said life is full of challenges. We have to accept them courageously. Fear is the obstacle in the way to success. So we should not be afraid of future. You just keep doing your efforts for betterment of future without fear. You surely get success.

it is our nature to fear almost everything that is not happening yet so we worry a lot. that is not healthy for us though at some point it can be helpful but too much of something is not good right. so try to focus on what you have right now and always ask for God's guidance. Problems and trials are part of our life and these are the spices of life that make us a better and stronger person in the end. Fear not because there is no bigger than God and through Him nothing is impossible.

.....etc and etc..
It is going to be no ends list to me~(^^)
That is true..I agree with you. If we need to list everything we should do it will never gets to the end. I admit that I feel a bit scared of it but the time will come so we do what we need and afford to do. If we could leave all the unnecessary habits and activities that bring no good to us then do it. Don't let the fear take over your life. Go and do the important first as we can't push and force ourselves to do all the things at once.(^^)

Whenever i think of future, i have the same feeling: scary. many thing else we should care, many things maybe coming, is it nice or not? and i am worry about my relationship too. Sometime i feel so tired with my current life.
However, better don't think too much about future, i told myself like that also to end my thinking of future.
I go to drink coffee to end my fearing the future now.
Have a nice day and keep your smiles.

I exactly feel the same way, it's like I've not accomplished anything that's satisfactory to me. I feel like I'm running out of time, and have to conquer and achieve my goals now. I'm anxious and worried that I might not be able to secure my future. We got to stop this, but how? that is the question.
