Sacrifice
Something we can never forget is the reality of the struggle ahead of us.
When we decide to create the life we have always wanted, we have to be willing to sacrifice. You and I will need to be willing to make sacrifices in order to successfully reach for our goals.
The life we have been living is simply not enough to get us to where we would like to be so we have to either accept defeat, or start making changes.
Perhaps our greatest sacrifices will be the abandonment of the average. We have to determine what we simply don't need to do, and work on put it all behind us.
All the while remember that the sacrifices and changes we make are not to make our life difficult, but rather more rewarding. We also have to see that our fulfillment wont just come from reaching our goals, but will come as we become who we truly want to be.
All our goals whether we are conscience of it or not are about refining who we are so we can be happy with the person staring back at us in the mirror.
My biggest struggle when it comes to changing and sacrificing in order to accomplish and become more, is my ability to see my short comings so very clearly.
For instance, last night I totally forgot to set my alarm. As a result I slept in several more hours than I planned, and started my work day far later than I would have liked to. It's easy for you and me to get frustrated when we make mistakes like these, or when we feel we just aren't measuring up to where we should be.
What I think we have to keep in mind is that our momentum means more then our struggles. Essentially, so long as we don't give up, and we keep working on our goals, and keep pushing ourselves regardless of our struggles then we can maintain our momentum and keep making progress.
On a side note, if you're like me and have a big vision of where you would like to be that excites you. Then sometimes it can be easy to get all wrapped up in the "it's all about me mentality." This isn't healthy. I struggle with it, so I'm not about to start pointing fingers at people, but I've realized if I make an effort to change this mentality I'll have a healthier prospective. This can be seen as a sacrifice, to stop and help someone, provide a simple act of kindness etc. But the effort is well worth it. When you help someone else you help ground yourself to what matters most. The way you live your life, and the person you are becoming.
Oh and just for fun, here's a sports car gif:
Always remember to take things one paw at a time. Don't give up on your dreams. Keep working, keep moving. Get in and start that engine. Your potential is waiting to be unlocked. I'm sure it'll give you the ride of your life.
