Sacrifices

Sometimes you just need to make it hurt. Sometimes you just need to postpone that pleasure. Sometimes you just need to keep your eye on the prize. If you want to succeed, you must make some sacrifices. That is just the way it is. Do you want to satisfy those goals and objectives? Make some sacrifices. Let me make myself clear. I do not refer to pagan sacrifices of self-mutilation or animal mutilation. I refer to hard work. I refer to the need to pursue your goals. Many people out there are unwilling to "pay the price." It is not wrong to love yourself. Here is the rule: You must make sacrifices for the things you love, whether it is football or a woman. You must make sacrifices for the things you love, that is just the way it is. Please do not take a course of action that will cause you to regret, or a course of inaction that will cause you to regret. Jim Rohn sums it up: "We must all suffer from two pains: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The difference is the pain of discipline weighs ounces, while the pain of regret weighs tons."
