I’m such a procrastinator!
The story
I’m the biggest procrastinator, my visions & goals stay all in my head. Im scared to fail, or take chances & I hate it! I feel like I make excuses, like I want to become a nurse. It would change my life all the way around. Last week I was supposed to to take my entrance exam & didn’t because I felt like I didn’t have time to study. I’m a stay at home mom, with a spouse who works all the time but takes advantage he’s the main provider. He keeps to decided how much money I can like $20 a week or if we get into it he throws in my face he’s going to leave me with this huge house & rent. For the sake of my kids I keep it a non toxic environment & try to get along with him. But I want my own money, My own career. I want to live in an apartment in downtown, with my kids & nice car in the garage & start are life. I’m only 26 but feel like i’ve waisted so much time & i’m getting older. I was a stripper, a did so good, but i’m past my 21 phase & want to secure a career. I went to college for medical assistant & it’s cool & all but I want more. I’ve never worked at a fast food place I knew I’ve always wanted more in life ( No shade to the people who do, bc of yall I get to pull up, order & go! ) Even when I danced, I would hesitate to walk up to customers. They would come up to me but some nights I left home with nothing just because I was scared to approach someone. I wasn’t always like this. The current person i’m with, had me locked away at home for 3 years so when we spilt I had social anxiety so bad & had to get on medication. Now i’m doing a lot better & don’t let him do that anymore but man I couldn’t even go to walmart without breaking down feeling people looking at me. i just want to be able to say I took the first step & did it. Or sit in my nice bedroom & look how far i’ve came. But need that extra push.

Totally hear you on feeling stuck and wanting change. Life's not always a smooth ride. We all have those moments where taking the plunge is daunting, but you gotta believe in yourself. Chasing dreams—yeah, sometimes it's scary, but it's definitely worth it.
Glad you're not letting past fears hold you back anymore. It's really inspiring to hear you wanna turn things around. Remember, every journey begins with a single step. Good vibes your way as you go after what you deserve. 💪✨
Sounds like you're caught in a tough spot, but it's great you're recognizing what you want. Change ain't easy, and those first steps can be a doozy, but they matter. You're young and have plenty of time to chase those goals. Wanting your own career is solid, and taking that entrance exam could be your ticket.
You've got this, just take it one step at a time. Success might be closer than it seems. Keep your head up and stay focused.
