Here is an original quote by yours truly, “Sacrifice is key along the path to salvation.”  I came up with that sitting in my office talking with my business partner, David.  It sounded pretty good and it was deeper than I had anticipated.  Let’s break it down word by word….

Sacrifice:  We all know it takes hard work and dedication to become successful… But it also takes sacrifice.  You usually have to give up the NOW for the LATER.  Not all the time… but… most of the time, right or right?

Key:  Our life and world is operated with keys.  Key to success, Key to salvation is being saved, Key to the executive washroom…. hahaha.  Keys are all around us.  We have to put the right key with the right opportunity and that usually means – Discernment.  We have to be able to discern good opps from the not so good.

Along the Path:  We all have a path we have taken, chosen or will choose in the future.  Along the way we will stay on the straight and narrow or we may stray away from it.  There are paths that are good for us and others that aren’t so good.  That’s ok.  We learn from mistakes and forks in the road – stumbling blocks.  Life is a journey along many paths.  Find a few good paths and stick to them.

To Salvation:  Success right?  Depends on your definition of success.  Success is different for everyone.  Could be financial success, family, afterlife, no debt, extra 10k a year, being a good person, finding the woman or man of your dreams… etc…. Salvation is whatever it means to you personally.  Think hard and create the goals to lead you to your personal salvation.

Ya know…. there are so many other things I can write about this quote— why don’t you give it a stab and tell me what it means to you.  “Sacrifice is key along the path to salvation”
