Episode 4166:

Tynan argues that the magnitude of the sacrifice a person is willing to make tends to define the outcome they get. He points to friends who lived in RVs and walked miles to skip taxis, and notes that what usually stops people is not the discomfort itself but being seen enduring it. His caution is that sacrifice should buy a specific path rather than serve as proof of toughness.

Quotes to ponder:

"the magnitude of the sacrifice you are willing to make will define your outcome"

"The reason a lot of people aren't willing to sacrifice isn't because they couldn't endure it, but because they couldn't endure other people seeing it."

"Sacrifice, but make sure it's for something."
