Sacrifice or Compromise?

That's right, both words have three syllables and more often than not, are used interchangeably. How many understand their true meaning and application? Let's find out from the dictionary!

Sacrifice - to give up something that is valuable in exchange of something else.

Compromise - to reach an agreement in an argument in which the people involved reduce their demands or change their opinion in order to agree.

See the difference? Is it obvious enough now?

Sacrifice: 1 party wins, 1 party loses out = win~lose situation

Compromise: 2 parties lower their expectations to achieve the best result = win~win situation

Lesson of the day: Many tasks in our lives require us to compromise, but this can only be done with an open and willing heart..
