If you're passionate about something, and half-way believe you can have that something, just thinking about it for a few seconds should automatically make you feel good, after all it's something you want. If you don't think you can have that thing, I wouldn't focus on trying to feel better about that thing, I would look for ways to get rid of the belief that I couldn't have it, as it's probably affecting other aspects of life as well.
Think of it this way, if you get overly excited, that sort of shows you weren't expecting to get it. Like when the Publisher's clearing house people knock on someone's door with a million dollar check (or whatever it is) those people are jumping up and down and freaking out because they never in a zillion years thought something like that could actually happen to them.
Contrast this with something like knowing that tomorrow you'll be going to Disneyland or having a date with a cutie, it's something you look forward to and have positive anticipation for, but it isn't necessarily overwhelming because you already know it's going to happen.
