What are you willing to Sacrifice?

Date: 26th, October 2021

There are only five days till we enter November; I am happy we are all healthy and still here; entering a new month is something you should be grateful for because it is not easy. People die every day, but I am glad I still live and have the strength to keep posting here.

Some of us on this platform have a lot of stuff we are doing outside this platform, but you still try our best to post every day; you even sacrifice your time, sleep, and leisure hours to post and interact here. 

Even if you are receiving money for it, I know what you are doing isn't easy. 

You all comment, upvote, and help other users even when you could be doing other things outside of this platform, and that is why you usually do very well here.

Rusty notices people who do this much more than others because he knows they are helping the platform, which is his way of appreciating them.

When you learn to sacrifice things, you will always reap the rewards at the end, and it could be your time, your strength, or even your body. 

Our teacher gave us an essay on what we would sacrifice for our dreams if we were ever given an option.

She was surprised to see the answers because some students wrote they would sacrifice their parents, friends, and even themselves. It was such a crazy day for our teacher as she read our insane essays, lol.

Let me ask you a question, "What and who are you willing to sacrifice for your dream? 

This question may be weird, but you need to ask yourself this question sometimes because you never know when you have to make these choices in your life.

You must be willing to make sacrifices if you ever want to achieve something that is a given, but most of us never want to sacrifice.

We keep holding onto and doing things that won't help us reach where we want to be in the future; we forget that time is one of our precious assets, and it waits for no one.

You would need to sacrifice some things to achieve success in life; here are some of them.

. Time: As I have said before, time is precious, and we shouldn't use our time to do things that won't benefit us later. We need to do so many things every day, but we never have enough time. It is crucial to make the best use of your time so you can achieve what is essential. 

Procrastination is a significant problem, and everyone has fallen victim to it, but you must never allow it to halt your progress.

. Personal Life: You must sacrifice a lot of your personal life and relationships if you ever want to move forward; the problem is most people keep staying in toxic relationships that won't do them any good. 

You need to make significant changes to your personal life; you are not neglecting anyone, you are just focused on your goals, and that is all.

. Sleep: Most of us sacrifice this even when we don't need to; for one, I have an awful sleep schedule; that's if I even have one. 

There are nights that I would have to keep on writing and deprive myself of sleep because I know I have to make four articles for this week in one night.  

It may not be easy, but that is the best way to utilize your sleep; instead of using it for something that won't benefit you, you use it to make your tomorrow easier.

. Immediate desires: We have so many desires, and it is impossible to satisfy them unless you want to waste your life. 

There are so many things that can lead to distractions, but we shouldn't let them make us procrastinate; it might be checking your social media or watching a movie. 

Never lose focus on what is essential in your life; it is up to you to make these decisions; you must learn to sacrifice your immediate desires if you want to make good use of your time.

 It is not wrong to have immediate desires, and it is normal to feel that way, but when you sacrifice what you want now, you are saving a lot of time and energy for something more essential. Sacrifice for the future because time won't wait for you.

Now I want to give you a couple of scenarios that I just thought of. Comment your answer below; I can't wait to read it.

"If you are allowed to have everything you have ever wanted and fulfill all your dreams, but at the cost of your loved ones, would you sacrifice them, or would you leave the deal?

Second Question:

"Would you sacrifice your co-workers lives for your benefit?"

Those are the two questions I wanted to ask you; if you are willing to answer them, you can comment on your answers below.

It may not be easy to make sacrifices, but you should be able to do anything for your dreams.

Here are some quotes that I wanted to leave here before I finish.

"A dream... It's something you do for yourself, not for others."

"In order to accomplish something, sacrifices must be made."

"There's no such thing as a pain-free lesson; they don't exist. Sacrifices are necessary; you can't gain something without losing something. If you can endure the suffering and walk away from it, you'll find out that you now have a strong heart to overcome any obstacle."

Thank you for reading; leave a comment if you have any; I will see you later! Bye!!
