Article - 5 Sacrifices Every Entrepreneur Must Make

Being an entrepreneur, regardless of what type of business you decide to endeavor, is a challenge.  Rewarding, yes.  Easy, no.  As entrepreneurs, it is more than fulfilling, more than exciting, to see your dreams come to fruition.  Getting your tax ID, your DBA, your website, etc.  But after you have everything set and in place, it's time to make money, get clients, and generate revenue.

When this does not happen overnight, it can be devastating, but giving up is not an option for most.  In this article, "5 Sacrifices Every Entrepreneur Must Make," by Jayson DeMers, posted on Entrepreneur.com, the author discusses five sacrifices that I feel are very important to keep in mind on your entrepreneurial journey.

"Every entrepreneur starts out with big dreams and excitement.  As an entrepreneur, you control your own destiny, and with the right ideas, the right skillset and unflinching dedication, you can build wealth or establish an enterprise to serve as your legacy" (DeMers).

1. Stability
2. Work/life split
3. Income
4. Sleep
5. Comfort
