What are you willing to do to satisfy your heart’s desire? What are you ready to give up to get what you want? What concessions are you willing to make to accomplish your goals? What habits are you willing to put aside to take your life to the next level?
What are you willing to live without today so that you can live like no one else in the future? What are you willing to sacrifice to become the best version of yourself?
We can also ask…
What are you willing to gain? What are you willing to add to your routine to realize your ambitions? What new information are you willing to learn? What body of knowledge are you willing to acquire? What networks are you willing to be a part of? What circles of influence are you willing to join?
In what ways are you willing to step out of your comfort zone to reach your pinnacle of success?
: “Success is not a pursuit. Success is a mindset.” -Josiah Samuel Harry

I think it’s easy to say that you’re motivated but the proof is in what you actually do to support your words. Great post as usual, Josiah.
Your blog stats are impressive by the way. Congrats on all you have accomplished.

Good morning! To answer most of the questions asked, I would say, I’m willing to add mentors who have been there and done all the things I haven’t. I’m willing to take another class on top of my busy schedule. I like meeting new people, so that could be an added bonus too because although we might not have the same journey or the same tunnel vision, I can still learn from them. This way of thinking is different, but it’s good. Sometimes, adding is also good as well as subtracting. If we really look at it, we are still growing, right?

I agree Josiah, it’s a lifelong journey. I always want to be teachable because there’s a lot to learn; I don’t know everything. Thank you!

This is so true, sometimes we haven’t really evaluated our goals. To truly put a plan into action you need to understand what achieving the goal means in terms of sacrifices and gains.

I once read somewhere that a lot of people say they want something but that they are not willing to work for it, and if that’s the case that it means they don’t really want that something. I had to think of this because of your question: ‘What are you willing to sacrifice in order to become the best version of you?’ and I think it’s really interesting to think about that on a personal level.

Well captured, Malou! I would add that many people aren’t willing to make the necessary sacrifice(s) because their dreams, goals and ambitions are too small. If a person truly has a great idea, that idea will move that person to action. Thanks for sharing.
