I know my parents support me 100% in what I choose but I'm just afraid of failing them and having no real safety net like you said.
My biggest problem is that I know I would have a stable career if I decided to play tennis for a living, but... it's not that I don't enjoy it, I love tennis, but I can't see myself spending hours working on it. Whereas I've done my hobby for hours on end without ever being bored.
I never really had a huge passion for life, but I'm still afraid of being a failure, k'now? I don't want to be anyone special, but I don't want to waste a golden opportunity that I've been given.
I'm also afraid of my hobby/job becoming somehing I dread everyday... though I've never felt like it has been before... I guess it's a sort of paranoia I have.
... I know it's odd saying so much about my dream job without telling you what it is... but it's so derp awkward I'd be scared you wouldn't take me seriously x_x
Thanks for the reply Xiroey. I appreciate your input.
