The word ‘Sacrifice’ has many meanings. The most popular definition of the word is:

“The surrender or destruction of something prized or desirable for the sake of something considered as having a higher or more pressing claim” – dictionary.com

I have a problem with this word when people use it in correlation to achieving their goals. When people say I have to sacrifice this or that, it puts a negative connotation on something that is considered a significant cause. Putting something off that is of less importance shouldn’t be considered a sacrifice. Fun is short term, and so are certain material things. If you decide to save money for a new car instead of buying a dress, then that’s considered a smart decision for your long term goals. Feel proud that you can stick to the steps needed to achieve what you want, and not be distracted. When the term sacrifice comes into play that’s never good. The definition of the word to me is negative. The very words you say have power. When you use a negative word to describe  something positive, it reverses the positive result of what you want. Focus on the positive in everything you do so you can generate the good vibes needed to achieve your goals. Refuse to acknowledge words like can’t and sacrifice because none of these words should be relevant in your future endeavors.
