Sacrifice – Are you prepared to sacrifice your leisure activities or not spending recreational time with your family just to commit to your task at hand? It is crucial that you are able to place your goal as top priority; over and above everything else which should take second place. If you are not motivated enough to be solely dedicated to your goals, it will be virtually impossible for you to make sacrifices and give your goal that number one position in your life. When you let everything else get in the way, your goals will be ignored, neglected and eventually forgotten. Making any sacrifice requires a deep sense of commitment to your personal desire, your reason, your motive and inmost intention; only then will you be willing, prepared and enthusiastic enough to see through your goals; without being tempted by other distractions or excuses. Remember that turning to excuses will always be your first and greatest obstacle to achieving your goals – so it is important you set your mind on what you want and not fall prey to distractions.
