Your Willingness to Sacrifice Determines Your Level of Success

You receive only what you put in.

“There can be no progress, no achievement, without sacrifice, and a man’s worldly success will be in the measure that he sacrifices.” -James Allen, As a Man Thinketh

In his book Rich Dad Poor Dad, Robert Kiyosaki recounts a common response he gets when he asks people why they aren’t open to lucrative real estate investments.

“When I speak to people about investing in real estate, they often tell me they’re not interested in real estate because they don’t want to fix toilets.

When someone says, ‘I don’t want to fix toilets,’ they’re saying that little problems like toilets are more important than their financial freedom.”

For some, a leaky toilet is enough of a reason to never attempt to achieve their goals.

If you are not willing to sacrifice your pride, comforts, or security, you will never achieve your highest level of success.

Your level of sacrifice directly determines your level of success.
