We suddenly get too anxious about our future because we feared failures or not being good enough. We may make one mistakes or bad grades and define ourselves for it. We may also have low esteem or less confidence in our ability to do better. The future is scary because we tend to easily give up, when things do not go our ways. We change paths thinking we are not good enough for our future. Most importantly, we do not give credit to ourself for doing the best that we can possibly do. We are extremely too hard on ourselves.

This can be due to many factors but I feel two of the main reasons are time and expectation. When we are thinking about the future, we are actually thinking about something which we have no idea is going to take place or not which can then definitely cause one to go down a spiral of overthinking thoughts and all that. And this tends to lead us into always being in a hurry to see results instead of living in the present moment. This is a completely natural phenomenon though and I am sure everyone goes through these emotions at least once in their lives, which is why it is important to talk about all of these feelings and letting them out so that the burden of these feelings doesn’t overwhelm us and cause anxiety as anxiety is something that can be triggered in any one at any time
