In our society today, everyone wants to gain some form of relevance, it is unfortunate that we now have a society that celebrates even things that are not valuable any longer that the sincerity of those who have value to add is not so significant. My writing today is for those who desire to achieve a certain level of success, but before success comes, there has to be a place for intense sacrifice, so the real question to be answered is, how much sacrifice are you willing to pay for the intended level of success to be attained. So, this post is basically to let us know that, if we are to attain success in life, it is not just enough to desire it, but sacrifices have to be made in order to make it work.

Oversleeping: A good rest is very important, I do not advise that we skip or miss out on it, but spending almost every hour of the day sleeping does not make any meaning. Sometimes, you need to stay awake at night to complete a particular project or to strategize properly on the next move. While sleep is a serious necessity, we also need to get real about it, there will definitely be some moments when you will only be able to get a few hours of sleep and that is a sacrifice you need to pay.
Relationships: It is very good to spend time with friends and close relatives, it is important to spend quality time with them, but you also need to create a calendar to know the time to spend with them and how long it would take, it makes no sense to spend your entire day and your entire time playing with friends and family members, you need to make the sacrifice of time and invest everything to build yourself.
Change your mindset: In order to get productive and successful, you have to position your head in the direction of growth and consistency. Change your mindset to fit into the path of consistent increase and channel that energy into growth, that is also an intentional sacrifice you need to make.
What people think: We definitely cannot live life on our own, we need the advice of people to help us navigate through, especially the advice of the people who have come before us, but while we sought for advice, we also have to be careful about the things we choose to listen to, if you decide to listen to everyone's opinion about you, you will be unable to achieve any serious thing at the end of the day.
Remember to gain knowledge: Having an extremely busy day is not an excuse not to gain knowledge, read your book, and pay attention to burning the mid-night candle even when you do not have an exam to write. Gaining knowledge does not stop with going to school, be intentional about gaining knowledge in your field.
