The Fear Of Losing It All

I live with the fear of losing everything I've worked so hard for.

And this feeling never goes away.

Every day, I'm scared of losing it all:

• The time I've invested.
• The business I've built.
• The reputation I've earned.

They're my life's work.

The nightmare of seeing my house crumble keeps me up at night.

And I can't let it go.

To get here, I've poured in:

• Years of my life.
• Savings I've worked hard for.
• Precious time I could’ve spent with my family.

And it did pay off for me. I got a lot in return.

Most of all is a childhood dream realized.

And that’s the root of my fear. Losing that very dream.

In moments of doubt, I ask myself:

“If I lose it all, what would it take to bring it back?”

This question eases my mind. I know the answer very well.

Over the years, I’ve:

• Made all the mistakes.
• Learned the lessons.
• Honed the skills.

If I had to start all over, I’m certain I would:

• Do less of what didn't work.
• Do more of what worked.
• Take way less time.

This realization alone slows my heart rate, allowing me to fall back asleep.

If you're haunted by the same fear, ask yourself:

“What's the worst that could happen?”

I assure you, it’s not as bad as you fear.

And maybe, like me, you'll accept once and for all that this feeling is never going away.
