What you're feeling is completely natural. It's a huge step to go out in the world and stand on your own two feet. There's no way of knowing which things you'll mess up and what you'll get right but you'll be the same as every other human on this planet, just trying to do our best! If you never make mistakes then you never learn right? It will become easier. The more you do for yourself the more confidence you'll gain and you'll soon have the self belief that you can go out there and make your life the way you want it. I wish you lots of luck :)
