“There’s no such thing as a free lunch.” -Traditional proverbIt’s often said that in any endeavor of life, you need to give something to get something. In business seminars the most popular motto is “you have to spend money to make money.” But sometimes I wonder, where do you set the limit? To what extent do you sacrifice things to achieve your dreams? Personally, I feel you should keep “investing” in your dream until you come across two roadblocks:
- You’ve given 99% of what you have, be it money, be it time or anything else. That remaining 1% of ANYTHING should always be kept at all costs as it will serve as the springboard to bounce back. Retaining that last portion will also serve as a reminder that you’re working to get control of your dreams and not the other way around.
- You reach a point where you’ll have to sacrifice your principles. If you do indeed do that, your values will never be the same again no matter what happens afterwards. For example, there are cases of even sadistic murderers in prison who find go on to change for the better. But no amount of change can erase their crimes.
