Negativity and skepticism from family
I think the doubt is the hardest thing to deal with when it comes to people around me. Anyone else had that problem?

@Rod Desinord I am currently dealing with the same problem with my parents. It is a battle most every day I talk to them because they are not and never have been risk adverse, just stay positive do what you have to and prove them wrong. Use their negativity to help drive you this is what I am doing. Good luck and may you be blessed.
