What Are You Willing To Spend Yourself On

Each of us has only so much time, energy, money and other resources to spend. How we spread them around indicates what we truly value.

But, beyond these things, there’s the idea of our self – our very core being – our essence. What are we willing to give that to?

I’ve been thinking about this a lot the last few weeks. What am I willing to spend myself on? I don’t have a solid answer yet, but I suspect there are very few things that fall into this category. It’s a high price to pay. However, the rewards can also be stellar.

Maybe I will surprise myself at the number of things I’m willing to spend myself on. Maybe I do it far more often than I realize. More thought and analysis is required.
