'His reason was that he’s gotten used to being a news reporter and he didn’t want to try something else, he didn’t want to take a risk of not being able to handle the new job, although he’d alway dreamed of being one.'

'he didn't want' is not equal to 'worry'. In the speaking, the rule is: what we heard is the content. don't refer something new
