Sounds backwards, right? But fear is oh so present. Here are
3 examples:
- Fear that I am 1 week away from completing a journey I have been on for years and something could go wrong. Something catastrophic could happen and trip me up mere moments before crossing the heavily anticipated finish line adding possible years to the debt fight.
- Fear that I will be debt free then end back up in it down the road. Although I have taken the necessary behavioral steps to ensure this doesn’t happen, you never know what could shift.
- Fear that even if I do not end up back in debt, I will not win with money in the long run because I will misplace money along the way. Not choose the right options in stocks, a Roth IRA, investments, etc.
These may seem a little silly, and I haven’t put much
thought into those 3 things over the years; however, now that I am about to step
into the bright light at the end of my dark tunnel, these are my present fears.
I’ll keep you posted as always, but for now, I’m simply keeping it real J
A bite of food to chew on:
“If you live in fear of the future because of what happened
in your past, you’ll end up losing what you have in the present.”
