OUTLINE
1. Heart Check-Where is your treasure?
2. Eye Exam-What is your focus?
3. Will Assessment-Who is your master?
Today we are kicking off a brand-new series entitled, ''Triggers.'' Usually, we encounter situations that aren't a big deal, but sometimes, things will set us off, something will trigger an emotion or a feeling, something will snap, something will change.

Money is a funny thing because if you have it, you worry about keeping it. If you don't have it, you worry about trying to get it. If you're somewhere in between, you worry about both. All of us today, regardless of our financial standing, struggle with feeling, ''Do I have enough? Am I going to be able to keep what I've got? Am I going to be okay? Is my family going to be okay?''
And many times, the result of these feelings can be fear. We fear that we aren't saving enough for retirement. Or, sometimes, it's guilt because maybe we spent money ...
