Every business person must leave their comfort zone and make tremendous sacrifices for their businesses to stand and grow. The level of sacrifice might not be the same but there must always be a sacrifice. Which common sacrifices do business people make for their businesses?

During the early days of my business, I used to trek long distances just to get to the shop and ensure it is just open. Didn't have money to pay my way.

The comfort zone, where they engage in new experiences or take on any challenges. They only participate in activities that are familiar, making them feel in control of their environment.

I have been forced to do things i don't really do such as posting and being active on social media, have always been the type to keep to myself.

I remember those days that I had to trek from home to the farm and back, twice a day because I needed to keep the farm going. And that was a 1 hour walk for going and another hour walk for coming back. That's four hours trekking on a daily basis. I couldn't afford transportation but I had to keep the farm running. That's one sacrifice that I paid.

Being reliant on a stable job or income source, which can limit risk-taking and entrepreneurial pursuits.

Some have had to leave good paying jobs and careers just to pursue the uncertainty that comes with running a business.

it's about leaving your comfort for customer preferences, technological advancements, or competitor actions

I use to go days without having as much as a four hour sleep because I have to attend to customers. Ain't easy.
