goals in life

i have a few goals in life..probably more than juss a few, but only a select few really motivate me..these goals make me who i am

at times, i can envision the future and i can picture myself accomplishing these goals..

reason being: i know who i am, i know who i want to be and theoretically, i know how to get there

but at other times, i can't envision it

reason being: at the present time, i fear i'm losing who i am..losing my ambition, my confidence, my passion and more

now i'm wondering how much you can actually compromise and sacrifice before you lose your self identity?

or the more important question is, am i juss taking a different path to reach my goals or am i straying far away from the path, eventually losing sight of my hopes and dreams?
