Is it normal to be scared of my future.

I have a lot of things I want to do in my future and I feel like I have no time to do everything I want. Am scared am only gonna work and not follow my dream. I also have a wonderful bf that want to stay with me forever and have a family. But I feel like if I have a family then I would have to give up my dream. I'm I selfish? And I'm really scared what my future is going to be like. Is it normal? And tell me what you guys will pick a career or family.

    Your ams and I'ms are backwards. Its all I could focus on, but after re-evaluating your story, I think we are all scared of our futures. At least the people that have hopes and admirations. I am terrified and curious at the same time to see what my future will hold.
    Just gotta prepare yourself every step of the way to ensure yourself that your future will be a bright one.

    I think it's very normal to want to pursue your dreams, and worry that you will not achieve them during your lifetime. You're not selfish, but ambitious, which is a good thing.

    You don't necessarily have to pick one over the other. You should be able to follow your dreams and cater for your family.

    If I was in a relationship I'd expect my partner to accept my dreams and support me.
