Fear

What is one of your fears? How have you worked through it (or do you just wish you could)?

My one and biggest fear is failure. Of being out of money and with no job or means of income in sight. What will I do if such a situation does come up? What will I do if I cannot pay my bills and buy food and medicine? Will I be a total disaster at the end and in my old age be forced to beg money from relatives just to get by in life and be worried about where my next Re.1 is going to come from?

This is the biggest thing that I fear. I have stayed awake a few nights thinking about this during tough days and especially as I have grown older. I don’t have much savings stashed away. I take care of my dad and mom and the bills are payed by me. I’d like to have a large savings piled up and making money in a bank, just waiting for me to retire and live off. But its not the case.

I’ve had that spell of many months where I wasn’t making money and it was really bad. The only thing I could do was apply for jobs online and every Wednesday look for job openings on the local newspaper. It was very disheartening and embarrassing as I had to borrow money to pay my internet and phone bills, even after I changed my plans to the lowest plans for each. I never want to see that kind of a situation anymore in my life. I would rather die.
