It is good to have passion. It is even better to feel like our goal is within our grasp and that we can take action every day to get there.
There are times when, as we get closer and closer to our goal, it starts to take up more of our time, energy, and attention. When this happens it can create the concern that it will take over to the extent that we neglect other parts of our life.
Today we are going to tap for those times where it feels like our desire for one thing is going to take over our life completely.

I’m glad I have goals…I’m glad I have something I’m striving for…It’s good to be excited about those goals…And that excitement pushes me forward…It pushes me through hard times…It pushes me through those places where it’s hard to do the work…But there is a part of me that is concerned…That I’m going to throw myself completely into this…That I’m going to become completely consumed by it…That my whole world…That my whole life…Will be thrown into this one thing…And sometimes I need to do that in the short term…Short bursts of work…That help me to have success quickly…But there are times…In which I can lose balance…Because I’m so consumed by one thing…And I appreciate the fact that there is a part of me…That wants better and wants me to be successful…But no matter how important this goal is…I still need to maintain balance in my life…No matter how important this goal is…There are other things I need to put my attention to…It’s good to keep balance…And as long as I keep reminding myself…That even though these goals are important…They are not the end-all and be-all…They are not everything in my life…As long as I commit to…Remembering to look at the big picture…And seeing how all of this fits into my life…If I keep doing that…I will maintain balance…I will stay focused…I will stay dedicated…And I will keep moving forward…I give myself permission to be excited about my goals…I give myself permission to throw my heart into them…While always recognizing it’s important that I keep balance…And that it’s possible for me to keep balance.
