SACRIFICE AS A STUDENT
Hello, mentorship family.
Today, I want to speak to every student—whether you are in junior school, high school, college, or university.
If you have ever wondered “What’s the secret to success?” let me tell you the truth: Success has a price—and that price is sacrifice.
The real question is:
What are you willing to give up today to build the future you dream about tomorrow?
Many think success comes by luck or chance. It doesn’t.
It is built quietly, behind the scenes, in moments no one sees—through choices that demand discipline and sacrifice.
I know this because my own journey proves it. From my earliest days as a student to where I am now—a mentor, author, public speaker, and founder of Mentorship Beyond Boundaries—everything I have achieved was built on a foundation of sacrifice.
Sacrifice #1 – Trading Sleep for Time
In high school, while many were sleeping, I was already awake—creating more hours in my day.
Even in university, with no morning bell, I still woke up early. Why? Because I had dreams bigger than my bed.
I was writing books, creating content, building my speaking career, and mentoring others while still studying. Waking up early was not just a habit—it was a declaration that my dreams mattered.
I remember a hospitality staff member named Evans who would always find me at the student mess early in the morning with my laptop. That friendship grew, and today his son is my mentee—already building a brand as a first-year student at Kibabii University.
So, I ask you: What excuse do you have? If you think mornings are cold now, wait until life hands you bills—you will wake up without an alarm.
Sacrifice #2 – Choosing Focus Over Pleasure
As a student, I made a decision:
No drugs.
No alcohol.
No night parties.
No premature relationships that would derail my focus.
Not because I was boring—but because I valued my destiny more than momentary pleasure.
I watched classmates waste time and emotions on relationships they were not ready for—ending up disappointed both academically and emotionally.
Some even faced early pregnancies and responsibilities that cut short their education. I refused to walk that road. I told myself: There will be time for love and entertainment, but now is the time to build my foundation.
Sacrifice #3 – Giving Up Comfort
I sacrificed leisure for learning.
On weekends, while others slept in, I attended dawn studies. During games time, I often chose books over the field.
It wasn’t easy. But the truth is: Your future will not wait for you to feel comfortable.
The seeds of success are planted in the soil of sacrifice.
Why Sacrifice Matters
Today, as a young professional, I still sacrifice. One of my dreams is to play golf and fly to places—but not now. Now is the time to build, not to relax.
I have learned that sacrifice is not suffering—it is an investment in the life you want to live. And the earlier you start making the right sacrifices, the earlier you will enjoy the rewards.
