Looking Ahead

I dread getting asked the question, "What are your plans for the future?", or any of its variants. Since this world is full of so many different people, there must be people who are very sure of themselves and their path. It's hard for me to imagine what that kind of mindset is like. I imagine that it must feel great... If I am able to achieve that some day, it would probably be liberating. At the moment, more often than not, I am hesitant and uncertain about what I want. I have so many questions that I can't answer. I think it's because I tend to overthink some things, which makes them more complicated than they actually are (but then again, with regards to some things, I am shockingly simpleminded...).

I'm at a point in my education where there are two major paths for me to choose from. I have already decided which path to take, and it would be an extremely rewarding job if I succeed. The part that is making me hesitate is the "if". I've been told repeatedly by many people that I need to have more confidence in myself. Somehow, I never feel like I am good enough. But I've almost got my foot in the door. I guess I'll know sooner or later whether I am good enough to succeed in this career path. For now, I will just keep looking ahead.
