FIELD NOTES // 020 - The Truth About Sacrafice

Everyone says they want it.

Until it costs something real.

⸻

Sacrifice isn’t a word on a hoodie.

It’s missing the call you wanted to answer.

It’s being misunderstood.

It’s sitting in silence while everyone else moves on.

⸻

They tell you it’s about balance.

They tell you you can have it all.

But you learn quick — you can’t build something uncommon

without giving up what’s common.

⸻

You lose weekends.

You lose sleep.

You lose people who never understood why you kept showing up

when no one else did.

⸻

But that’s the price.

And the ones who can’t pay it,

never reach it.

⸻

Sacrifice hurts.

But regret destroys.

⸻

The truth about sacrifice:

It’s the tax on becoming who you said you’d be.
