Short-term versus long-term
What are you invested in? What is your ultimate goal? Do you want to gain today or win tomorrow? To answer these questions, you have to make some exchanges, some trades. Will you give up tonight‘s movie? Will you give up going to the bar? Will you give up spending time on Facebook or other social media? Will you give those up in favor of working on the long-term win?
That’s how we gain insight, leadership skills, focus, and success. It doesn’t happen overnight. It will take many overnights. If it’s worth the sacrifice to you, you will make it happen.
