Hi Trevor,
Would it help to do the following?
– Consider what it means to leave a legacy in the world?
– Ask the others who are dear to you, what their legacies will be?
– Ask yourself what your legacy will be?
The first question gives you a new context. The earliest value here, I suspect, will be in the middle question, because you will be engaging in a meaningful dialog with the other folks. This dialog will become a journey for you. Then, over time, you will gain your own perspective and understanding of what you contribute as yourself. I’m thinking that you will become more comfortable and less anxious as you realize that there are no absolute, perfect answers, and that a good course of action is taking a course of action with others, while being ok with yourself.
Now, I’m not recommending that you only live in the future, but rather that you more consciously live in the present through this process of considering your future legacy.
