Obsession and Sacrifice

two man hiking on snow mountain

The two go hand in hand

You have to be even slightly obsessed to get anything done. Or, at least, to give anything a chance of being done to its potential.

Our obsessions get a bad wrap. When we become obsessed with things, we neglect others.

By being obsessed we can give things our best. Therefore, to be able to give your best requires neglecting, sacrificing, one thing or another.

When you are prepared to be obsessed with something, you have to be prepared to sacrifice something else.

What are you ready or willing to sacrifice?
