So often we speak of the visions we have for our lives.  We have rehearsed to our friends how we long to do this, create that, travel there, become someone here, yet we remain exactly in the same place.  Why is it that we spend so many hours day dreaming, combing through images in our minds, building the fantasy in our heads instead of creating the reality of which we desire to live?  No dream is to big to achieve, but with every dream comes hard work and the inevitable duty of sacrifice.  How many times have we heard, "success comes by hard work and sacrifice?"  Yes, we have heard this statement from our parents, teachers, mentors, loved ones, and sometimes people that we did not ask advice from.  At times, what we do not realize is that hard work and sacrifice are two completely different elements that work together.
