School starts on Wednesday and I’m afraid of failing. I haven't been back to school in years. I want to do it, but I’m scared I’ll show up and realize

I don’t know/remember as much as I thought and I’ll look stupid. I don’t want to attract too much attention to myself. I just want to learn and get the credit. The class costs a lot so I don’t want it to end up being a financial mistake. I want to get my internship next semester. I want to be good enough. I want to change my life for the better…A lot of people are counting on me and I don’t want to let them down!🥺 I’m scared!

Heeeeeey! I left school at 15 with no qualifications (I got a C grade in cooking class that's all lol), but at 21 I went to college, then to University and now have a Bachelors and Masters degree and 1.5 years ago started a great, high paying job in my field of study.

I had the same feelings as you when I started, and constantly felt like it would be a waste of time and money and I was already 3 years older than the rest of the class. But I did it, and so can you :) People just don’t know they can do something of this calibre because the results are too far in the future. But you can
