I don’t think of it as a sacrifice (loss), but rather a series of intentional choice (without regret) to achieve my goals.
This is mindset! Thanks for sharing
Becoming very close to my co-workers. When I was younger, I became insanely close with everyone. Now, I need to be more measured with my personal connections. We still share personal details and I encourage camaraderie, but I have needed to implement some distance from the people who report to me.
Sucks a little but it’s what’s needed in order to remain impartial and fair.
It’s OK to be close with your coworkers just not your team. Now understand what I’m saying you can’t be overly close with your team because then they won’t know where the line is and trust me, you need a line.
I’ve invested an enormous amount of time in myself (acquiring knowledge and skills, learning to navigate politics, …) —- It required that I sacrifice personal time (I went years without ever taking a single day off), boyfriends and friendships along the way, 💰 money, often taking care of my health was last on my list and more...
Sacrificed my sanity y’all. I was on the grind and now retired early at 47! Stay sane friends! Haha
Congratulations on achieving your early retirement goaks

Empathy. The first 20 years I needed to steer clear of empathetic, nurturing, and soft “you catch more flies with honey” tactics. Sometimes you have to be a hardass (not bitchy but rigid), especially in tech. Now I am a the hugger and den mom :).
I am curious to know more. In my world, leading with empathy has become a buzz. Curious if we can still demonstrate empathy without comming across as weak.
I haven’t sacrificed anything
