What are the thoughts that keep you awake at night? [I Am Sleepless Tonight]

Is it the future or the past that leaves you most restless.
The known or the unknown can both be equally worrisome.

The future, the unknown, the fear I'll never make my dreams come true
@SW-User the future, and hence the unknown, are scary. But they can also be exciting.

What are your dreams?
SW-User
@Ghostinthemachine A happy, peaceful life with a loving partner and a home and a less stressful job so I can actually live life instead of being in a constant state of survival mode.
@SW-User not an unreasonable ask, I would say
I hope your dreams come true. Sometimes having one dream become reality makes it easier for other ones to come true.
SW-User
@Ghostinthemachine Yes wish I knew how to make even one of them come true. That's the hard part, nothing I am doing seems to be working that's why it keeps me up at night 😔
@SW-User it’s difficult for sure

Do you ever get feedback from friends or family?
SW-User
@Ghostinthemachine not really most people don't seem to have any good advice for me.
@SW-User I don’t know what to offer, other than you seem like a genuine, thoughtful person who wants to succeed and achieve her goals. To me that seems the recipe for success.
Also luck and timing, everyone needs that. Everyone.
SW-User
@Ghostinthemachine yes I just need some of that luck and timing! My timing has seemed off my whole life 😖
@SW-User some say we make our own good luck, but I believe we need a helping hand too, a mentor, someone who believes in us
SW-User
@Ghostinthemachine yes that would be really lovely to have
@SW-User or even a life coach, but it has to be a symbiotic relationship, one needing the guidance, the other with a desire to impart their knowledge, wisdom and experience

I hope you have someone like this in your life
SW-User
@Ghostinthemachine I don't unfortunately, but thank you maybe someday I will
@SW-User someone clever will see your potential :)
