    So I was reading the blog post – Leaving a Secure Job When the Risk Feels Scary.  I have a wife and 6 kids.  Right now, it’s hard to make ends meet, but we do it.  There is an opportunity for me, that will allow me to provide for them without worry and then some, provided I can do well at it.  But I am unsure of myself.  How do I overcome the fear of failure when I have so many depending on me?  I have a steady income now, but would completely lose all income if I don’t succeed at the new venture…

    Dear JPBGrad98:

    With six minor children that you brought into the world, I think it is better that you stay with your current secure job, steady income and not venture into something risky. Make their home a loving home with steady (lower but adequate) income, and you would be doing a great job as a father.

    Dear JPBGrad98:

    I am new to this site and just read your story. I found this to be a very interesting question and was interested in what you ended up doing. Thank you for sharing this story, and good on you for having six kids! We just had our first and are wondering if we can eventually add one more 🙂

    Warm Regards.
