I think everyone wonders what is going to happen, and why we are here, and what our purpose is. All I have to say is, is going to get better. Everything is going to work out, and don't worry.

I quote, "We do not fear the unknown. We fear what we think about the unknown." So maybe, just maybe, you're stressed because you have this idea of what's going to happen. I've been there, and I can tell you, it's not as bad as you think. It's okay, and you're going to be fine, just like the star you were meant to be.

Future might be very scary because we'll never know what might be happen there. Spending some time to thinking about future might be helpful to arrange our plans to work on, but overly thinking about future might drain a lot of our energy that should be used to work on our plans. Overly thinking about the future could affect our sleeping pattern, too. Try to relax our mind before going to sleep might help. Doing meditations, reading non-intense books, listening to soothing musics, taking a warm bath while sipping a cup or maybe 7 cups of warm tea (well, I guess 7 cups are bit too many XD)

You feel stressed about your future, because your future is important to you, you care about your future. Also you don't trust that everything will be ok and work out alright. It's called "not trusting the process/journey" of life.

Usually because the future is the unknown. There are some expectations that you have on yourself and expectations from others (family, friends, societies) that shapes our judgement and perception in life. The thought of failing or not meeting the expectation can easily make one stress further of their future instead of looking at the present and creating their own future.

People are always stressed about the unknown, and the future being just that. You need to put faith in yourself that you will be OK. Work toward your future everyday, and that way you will feel confident that it will be a good one.

Waking up worried shows that your mature- your giving tings a thought and thats great! You may be nervous, anxious or something but your looking ahead- so what if people call you a worry wart or something? Your looking towards the light of tomorrow for a reason and you should smile about it and run towards it

Fear of future is a normal thing. Everyone is afraid of a future in some point of life. However, if this happens every day, it's not a good sign. You need to know why you're afraid of a future. But remember, that the future is right now and that there's a solution for everything :)

You would wake up stressed about your future if you are ambitious. Being ambitious is a good thing, but over thinking and worrying about it will not help. Make plans and schedules to effectively achieve and succeed in the future.
