This, after his injury-time thunderbolt at West Ham on Monday night secured Spurs a 3-2 win to move them into third place on the Premier League table.
The Welshman's scoring spree this term has seen him notch up 19 goals from 31 appearances for Andre Villas-Boas' side, with another four more for his country.
With the White Hart Lane outfit pushing for a return to the UEFA Champions League next season, Villas-Boas will be eager for Bale's hot-streak to continue for some time yet, and the 23-year-old is only happy to oblige.
"I am just enjoying my football. That is the most important thing," he told Sky Sports after the game at Upton Park. "The team is playing well, which makes it easier. It is not about me, it is about the team. We played well tonight."
Tottenham now head into Saturday's North London derby on a high and favourites to garner the win, although Bale remains cautious of Arsenal despite their troubles this term.
"We know it is going to be a massive game," he added. "They are a great team and we obviously want to get the three points and keep our Champions League hopes alive."
