I try.
Well came home with the wonderful idea to start looking into going back to college. Usually I start running around like a chicken with it head cut off in my mind. I decided that since I was feeling so calm about the idea to try again. I'm even looking forward to the challenge of working and going to school. I applied and everything went fine........Yeah right:/ starting flipping shit in my mind again trying to figure out what is going on. I need to do something different as far as making money. I started thinking about businesses that made it worse. Then came the thought do what your passionate about, but I don't know what I passionate about.
What seemed like a good idea doesn't seem so good anymore. I hope that I can fix this because it's annoying to say the least.
Why does this stress me out so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh and you may wonder why not just put in the application. Well did this twice the first time I stayed for 2 years. The second time I only stayed the semester. As for businesses well they never got off the ground
I might be assuming some things here, but I figured I'd throw in my thoughts on this. It sounds like you've gone too far into the future when thinking about this stuff and then from there your imagination just goes crazy. I don't know about your mind, but I have to keep mine on a leash otherwise it tends to run away haha. I'm great at coming up with new ideas, possibilities, theories, etc. not so great on follow through. Sometimes it's important to just narrow your focus a bit and break it down into smaller steps.
Forget about passion. People throw that word around too much and it fills you with too much anxiety over being passionate enough about something. Think of fulfillment instead. What would make you happy? Try asking yourself that question every night before you go to sleep. Give your brain something to focus on. Don't search for it, just let it come to you. You know when forget the name of a song or something and a couple of minutes later it pops in your head? It's kind of like that. Just be aware of any small pull towards something and let it grow.
