Sacrifices AND Success
Get your mind right! Do you have the right mindset to truly achieve and realize your dream? Be honest: to win is to sacrifice, trading off all that does not aid you in winning. You must pay the price, sacrificing everything that stands in the way of your goal. Prepare yourself to forgo much in order to win. If you think you know the full cost, you do not. There will be prices to pay along your journey to success that may cost you more than you initially comprehend.
If the win, the goal, is something that truly matters, you will not hesitate to sacrifice everything. But beware: to sacrifice yourself to a thing may rob you of something else. In this way, you must get your mind right. Know who you are and who you want to be on the other side of this journey. What are you unwilling to sacrifice? What trade-offs are unacceptable to you on this journey? Win or lose, know what you are willing to sacrifice and what you will not compromise. The cost may ultimately be too high. Set your mind right and then get to work.
