I had that very same fear at your age about the small life. It never felt like the "right time" to have a family because of other goals/interests. Sometimes I think about that on this side of life and wonder if it was just me being selfish. I see plenty of people who have achieved great things and have had families too. I can't help but believe those feelings are there for a reason though, and for me that nagging feeling never went away. I think what ignites us and fills us with excitement draws us closer to our destiny and it's smart to follow that.

I agree. I've always seen this nagging as a protective fence of sorts, and I always feel safer within its confines than outside of them. I've no idea how things will play out, but right now, I think this fear is helpful, as it's steering me towards the things I want, or that I think I want, at least.
