HE SACRIFICED HIS SON

TO GET HOLD OF SUCCESS, YOU MUST DECIDE WHAT YOU MUST LET GO

King Alfonso of Spain was both courageous and strategic in defending the capital against the Mohammedan besiegers. But by some fluke the enemy succeeded in kidnapping the King’s son.
The Sultan had a gallows built in full view of the city. He then forced the Prince to mount it. And the King received the message: “Alfonso, either the city of your son!”
A breathless silence descended on the court. Everyone watched the King’s face. Will he allow his people to be murdered or will he give up his dear son? King Alfonso was not long in deciding. The Sultan received the prompt reply: “Let my son die that my people may live.”
Now that’s sacrifice. The very virtue you must practice to achieve success. You have got to let some things go: some habits, some relationships, and some culture. It may be “dear” to you, but if it is a stumbling block to your success, chop it off; even if you have to do that with tears.
