EmploymentScape Chief Executive Officer, Harrison Barnes discusses the importance of sacrifice in our lives and careers.

Harrison believes that we need to constantly be sacrificing in order to insure that we are advancing in our lives. Sacrifice typically means to give something up of value to get something even more valuable in the future. The people in the world who achieve the most are the ones who are able to sacrifice. It is only through incredible sacrifice that our lives can change.

In your job and in your career you are going to be called upon to make sacrifices. In order to do anything and be someone of great substance you need to learn how to sacrifice. One of the greatest causes of failure in life is the inability to make sacrifices. We must always be sacrificing in order to grow.

The work you do is sacred. You need to take your job and your career seriously. The more you put into it the more you will become. The more you appreciate something the better you will get at it. You need to remind yourself of this every single day because it is about the most important factor in who you will become.
