Hi, I am 34 years old. I have been unemployed for the last 4 years. During this time I prepared for government jobs, but couldn't get a job. Now I am planning to go back to private jobs. I have been working hard on my skills to get a private sector job, and I'm happy to have acquired a lot of skills. I managed to get a fake work experience letter for those four years, when I was not working from a friend is company. My problem is, I keep on thinking what if I get caught using a fake letter (though the probability of getting caught is extremely low, as the company went out of business few months back) .This fear is always on my mind and consumes a lot of mental energy from me. This fear is always holding me back from going to interviews and applying for jobs. Please help me to start a new positive life and how do I overcome this thinking habit.

This is actually a good sign: it only shows that your conscience does not accept your unethical action. You cannot leave your conscience behind and just forget it. therefore I suggest to have a clean mind and remove that letter and the mention of that sabbatical in your resume. You would rather face life telling the truth than be successful by lying. The job scene is competitive but that does not mean it is acceptable to use deception even if others do to somehow get a placement. With a clear conscience life will be better and your mind will be free of any guilt. If you believe in karma and if you believe in Christ's famous words, 'You reap what you sow' , you may pay a price in some form or the other in life, that is for sure. Sometimes far worse than the crime.
