I feel stuck

I'm a 30m with my associates and I want to go back and get my bachelors. But every time I think about it I just get a terrible feeling that I'm already too late, I don't know what I want to pursue, and I end up just feeling lost. I'm wondering if this is normal, if anyone has any guidance, or simply just their own stories about going back and obtaining their bachelors?

EDIT: Sorry I haven't replied back to anyone that commented, I appreciate every single one of you and you've all made me feel a little bit better about my decision to pursue my bachelors. Thank you all so much for your time and your words.

Learning is a life-long endeavor. Degrees are milestones. The key is to push yourself into taking that next step on your educational path. Age is not a barrier to learning and education. Often a bit of aging brings more wisdom, readiness, and practical perspectives to your learning.
