Dreaming: Will A Goal Become An Obsession?

Hey ppl!

Recently just watched a really compelling show which really set me thinking about those ppl who actually dream. Dream as in dare to dream big to work towards what he/she wants in his or her life. Is it good or bad?
This show is about two rookie magicians trying to succeed in their profession.Both of them love the art of magic but what really sets them apart is their way of showcasing the art.
One is a natural magician, who can create any trick to showcase but he can't attract the crowd as he dosen't know how to dress it up. Lets call him A
The other one is the exact opposite. No talent but good showcase. Lets call him B
During their rookie days, something tragic happened. That incident set off something in B. It made him want to beat A in the profession. So many things happened. Both A &B wanted so much for themselves that it resulted in the lost of lives. In the end, the twist was the part they had everyone saying "WOW, didn't see that coming"

But my main point is, what was the film trying to potray?Obsession. Is wanting too much good or bad?
It's good in a sense that it shows that one knows what he/she wants for their lives. And if they acheived their dreams, then to them it will be a satisfaction- the focal point of their lives.

It's also bad. Why? Wanting to acheive something great takes courage to sacrifice many things, friends, love, family, lives etc. If one works so hard for that job that he becomes obsessed with doing well, then there will be no doubt that he would stoop low and then come at ur back to stab u at the back, to sabotage u. All of that for a big promotion. All of that to give u a black mark and
to get less competitors for the job. But there's a good part. Just like in the movie, the guy suffered in the end. Even if you managed to climb that high up the ladder by pushing ppl off, chances of you falling harder is higher. when you are at the top of the ladder, the only way to go would be down and someone you pushed down the ladder will climb back up and pull you down harder.

Think bout it, is getting what you want by scheming the best thing? Even if you succeed in it, will you be happy? is losing all your friends, your love ones worth the cost?Obsession is like a half god half devil, best fall on the god side, and it will help you acheive greater heights the proper way. Fall into the devil side and it will present you with so much evil that it will consume you. and when it spits you out, there will be no turning back.
