Success. We all want it. I believe every person dreams of success and being successful.
The problem is not everyone is successful and I believe few people ever accomplish their dream.
What’s the issue? Why aren’t people accomplishing their dreams? Why aren’t more people successful?
I look at my own life and where I’m at and I realize that I’m blessed beyond measure with everything God has given me. But I ask myself, is this all that God has for me?
I believe that God helps those who help themselves. What I mean is, God helps those that aren’t afraid to put in the extra hour of work, those who are willing to go above and beyond.
A key ingredient to being successful is sacrifice. You have to sacrifice something to put more time into your dream, into your desire.
“For a dream cometh through the multitude of business; and a fool’s voice is known by multitude of words.” Ecclesiastes 5:3 KJV
Dreams are only accomplished by business or work.
You ask people who are successful and have accomplished their dreams how they did it and they will tell you they worked hard.
What areas do you have to sacrifice in to be able to be successful?
Sacrifice some of your free time to put extra work in your dream.
Sacrifice some of your sleep to put extra work in your dream.
Sacrifice some of your extra money to invest in your dream.
Sacrifice is a part of success.
Don’t get discouraged when you feel like you’re sacrificing without seeing success. Keep on working hard, keep on giving your all. Don’t give up!
Just remember you can be successful, but there has to be some sacrifice somewhere that brings you to that success!
