Episode 84: Sacrifice and Success

Sadly, a few years ago a Gallup poll was taken and only 28% of Americans knew the true meaning of Memorial Day. Most people got it confused with Veterans Day and a few just thought it marked the first weekend of summer. Memorial Day is an American holiday, observed on the last Monday of May, honoring the men and women who died while serving our country. Although the impact of this day is lost on most it is defiantly not confused by those who have suffered through the loss of a loved one who has died for our freedoms. So today we honor those who have made the ultimate sacrifice and we honor their families and loved ones who were left behind to face life without them. We believe you do not have to directly experience something to inhale the full meaning and gravity of it. Furthermore, meaning can be changed just by the way we perceive something. As entrepreneurs, we hear all the time about the “sacrifices” it takes to run your own business. However, perhaps more important is not the sacrifice but the outcome of what we are choosing to sacrifice. For instance, giving up Netflix is less important than missing dinner every night with those that mean the most to you in this world. In this episode, you will discover: • The 3 things you need to consider when prioritizing and scheduling your time. • Why it’s important not to continuously sacrifice the things that mean the most. • Success is in the steps not at the finish line. American author Brandon Sanderson wrote “Sometimes the prize is not worth the costs. The means by which we achieve victory are as important as the victory itself.” Thus, the word itself, “sacrifice” is not where the significance lies, that lies in the intention and the outcome. So take the time and really reflect on all the things you are sacrificing to run your business and ensure you are not missing out on the very things you started your business for in the first place. Finally, for those that have and those that continue to serve this county and fight for our freedoms, thank you, and today we honor those who did and did not get to return home to their families or those very freedoms they laid down their own life for. Join us this week as we really dive into sacrifice, success, and prioritization, so you can start taking action towards your dreams and future today.
