one point that John Maxwell pointed out in his book was the principle of trading up in life.
you see.. in life we make decision after decision.
whether it's career switch, or relationship commitment.
whether it's decision to get married, or to stay single.
whether it's to move to another church or city.
well.. what we, as human, naturally want is to keep whatever good things we have as we move onto the new situation or position.
but the reality is, something gotta give.
you probably get quick promotion in your career.. at the expense of your relationship with colleagues and time with families.
with each climb we make, we have to trade something valuable away.
the principle of alchemy.
you cant have it all dear friend..
