- Jessica Figueroa: Hello again. Thank you so much for spending a couple minutes with me every single morning. Let's see. Sacrifice. Sacrifice is giving up something. Nothing great happens without it. Nothing great. What are the great things you're trying to do in your life that you're not sacrificing for? And maybe you're not sacrificing for them because you haven't sat down to think about what those sacrifices might be. Maybe you have to give up time, you have to give up money, you have to give up a friendship, you have to give up playtime, maybe you have to give up work. Maybe where you need to sacrifice is giving up some work to spend more time with your family or your kids to have better relationships. But nothing great ever happened without sacrifice. For example, the greatest sacrifice of all time was Jesus Christ dying on the cross for our sins. Use that as an example. He died on the cross for you and for me because he was perfect. Let's be a generation that is willing to sacrifice for greatness. And we don't have to think greatness that makes the history books and that people talk about for thousands of years. What about Having a great day takes sacrifice. What if you just sacrificed every day to have a great day? What would today look like if it was so great? And what sacrifice would have to happen in order for you to make today great? So let's just remember that nothing great happens without sacrifice. Where are you needing to sacrifice for the sake of something great? A great meal requires sacrifice. A great friendship requires sacrifice. A great thought is gonna require sacrifice because a great thought will take time. We've talked about going on that walk to stimulate your thoughts. Let's be people who sacrifice for greatness. Have a great day, guys.
