I admire that.
But are you willing to risk everything you’ve already got in order to get it? There’s a part of me that thinks I can get it without having to sacrifice anything (except some sleep perhaps). But I feel like, in order for young dude to accept me, I have to be willing to say, “I’m willing to sacrifice anything for this.” And just saying that, let alone acting on it, doesn’t sit right with me. I love what I have already. Know what I mean?
I feel you. The sacrifice of something good to potentially (but not assuredly) get something great in return is not an easy choice to make.
