Sacrifice. "You v. Them"

Something that I've learned in my adult life is that sacrifice is a major determining factor in where we may end up.  How many decisions have you made in your life that something had to be given up so something else could be done. I'm sure in your adult life that's an everyday occurrence.  Go on this trip or pay my light bill?  Be faithful to the love of my life or give this thot a chance to ruin all my happiness? Just examples...but hopefully you get my point.

In any decision a sacrifice has to be made and something has to be given up. I've realized that everyone, even your friends sometimes, don't realize when you are making a sacrifice for the reason of YOU.  You have to decide what will be the better outcome for yourself and not others.  In then end, others are always gonna sacrifice what they believe is best for them.  Not saying you aren't to help others out, just don't make a decision that in the long run that will have you losing.

In a world where "winning" is the objective, to stay on the winning team means sacrificing and making your life work best for the person living it...YOU.  We often make decisions by what we think others think of the decision, how someone will feel or what we think should occur.  Those days for me are over; no more trying to work out the decisions of myself and others.  You may lose somethings like friends, fun memories or love but in the end you will be able to look back and what you gained from the loss that probably wouldn't have added up to anything.

Next time you have two or more things to choose from, look at the situation and say to yourself "what's the sacrifice here"?  Weigh out all options and choose what is best for yourself. Those who feel you are making the wrong decision are only wanting you to do what's in their interest.  Everything you decide you do from here on out are for you because when you wake up and go to sleep you are the soul who has to live with every decision made.
