Anything and everything you do comes at a sacrifice.

Success, family, joy, love, fitness, as well as poverty, loneliness, despair, singledom and unhealthiness are all things that require a sacrifice.

The question should be what sacrifices lead to the results you want?

First of all, know that everything you want requires the sacrifice of time.

Whether it is success, love, despair or even poverty, you need to spend your time in certain ways to reach all of them.

Sacrificing your time by learning new skills or talking to your partner will lead to more success and love, while sacrificing your time fretting over what you cannot do or purchasing things rather than skills or assets will lead to despair or poverty.

But you also have to spend your time on something.

There are 24 hours in every day and you are always using all of them.

Knowing what you are choosing to sacrifice your time for is a great way to see what you reach in the end.

If you sacrifice your time for the right things it can lead to an exponentially increasing future, and vice versa.

Your Time, energy, willpower, strength and even your motivation are all things you are constantly…
