Hi I'm afraid to take up jobs that require to put a lot of efforts and responsibility. For a context, I'm a 15 yoe developer and I'm still working as lead engineer in my current company . My classmates are product owners , vp s, senior managers etc now. I'm technically not that bad, but am afraid of fulfilling the responsibilities which come along with the role. Anybody having the same dilemma when looking for next job switch? How to get around?

To be Frank I feel you are in Comfort Zone.
For Ex I worked in single company for 6 Years . I got a feeling like I'm in comfort zone and I can't survive in other companies. In Old Organization I Got promotion with little hike. I rejected it. I worked hard struggled struggled and got placed in other company after 100 of failure interviews with 💯% Hike.
Now I'm the Manager of the Team.

Great. You are an inspiration for me 🙂

Don't look at others. Look at yourself and see what best you could do. My classmates are even ceo although in small companies . You will spend your whole life in stress if you look at others. Everyone has their own limits . Do what makes you feel happy.
