That depends on what it is. I will discuss power. When you can do what you want you have enough power for yourself. However for most people this will corrupt them, so this would be too much for others. It would appear as if you have enough power, then for others you have too much. But, there is a third path. If you make it so you will have far too much power but not for a long time, then the thought of the power will make your wonder what you will do with it. It is possible you will simply corrupt but there is a small chance that you will think so much about that you enter a state of mind that I call the random power state. In this state you don't really care what your power does. You lose the ability to corrupt and at that point you are extremely vulernable to outside influence. Most likely you will become a slave to a powerful influence. Then you enter the slave power state. This is as dangerous as if someone instantly got absolute power. There is a chance that an opposite and stronger influence will break the hold on you then you reenter the random power state. Another option in the random power state is that no strong influence takes hold of you. When this happens you invent a purpose for your life. I call this the purpose power state. This purpose depends upon your personality. After this you will fufill your purpose. After this you rid yourself of all power because if you don't then you reenter the random power state. In the purpose power state you become afraid that if you return to the random power state that you will undo your work. To stop this you will rid yourself of all power. Overwhelming power is not a blessing, it is a curse.
