Could it be guilt?

Often times I feel the fear and when I think about it, for me, it comes partly from guilt. Why? Well, for one thing I personally don't know where my next commission is coming from.

Should I be somewhere working on promotion or marketing? Are my friends and family disappointed because I didn't pick a more conventional way to try to make a living? Will I be successful at this piece or mess it up, making the client unhappy with my work, perhaps after hours of labor? It is not pleasant to think of these things but for me, these are the causes of my fear.
