You’ve sacrificed A for B, this for that, your money for the chance to get it back ten-fold, your time for the money you save not hiring someone else to do it. If you give something up for something you will benefit more from, is that a sacrifice? Or is calling it a sacrifice just having a poor perspective on the situation?
If you choose to stay up late to work on your startup, that’s not a sacrifice, it’s a smart choice.
If you choose to quit eating out so often so you can by a new camera for your photography project, that’s not a sacrifice, it’s a worthy decision.
Next time you say you’re making a sacrifice, really think about it.
Stay Positive & Calling It A Sacrifice Is Just Added Unnecessary Stress
