Give up

What would you give up to get to your dream?
What’s the first thing you would give up?
What’s the last thing you would give up?
Say, to get to $10k MRR, I would give up hobbies. Then free time. Then sleep. Then fitness. Then some (not all) family time.
There’s some things which you can easily give up.
There’s some things which you will never give up.
In between that is your playing field. Escalate where necessary. But know your baseline. Because beyond that baseline, the dream no longer makes sense. No longer makes it worthwhile. No longer is a nett positive.
That baseline is how much I know I need to commit to, to sacrifice for, to give up.
