This week Janell and I made a sacrifice that will hopefully help us with our goals for the coming year. We had been paying quite the premium for our cable/internet bundle after the introductory period expired a couple of months ago. Now that Janell is done with her Bachelors degree (Congrats Janelly!!!) we have decided to go with basic cable and basic internet. The switch happens Monday. So, now we will have to deal with the much slower speeds while online.
I guess the point here is that reaching our goals takes sacrifice. We must give up something we have or want to get something better. In business, opportunity cost is what you give up to get something different. We must decide if what we are sacrificing is worth more than what we are getting for the sacrifice or not. The answer is subjective and thus it is different for everyone.
Hopefully we are sacrificing the right things for that which will last. Giving our time, talents, and money is worth the reward of a strengthened relationships with family and friends.
