Great question. I imagine we've all given up personal things/events in our life to continue our education. None of the things I've missed have been earth shattering, and in the end, I doubt I'll even miss them. I was able to prioritize my family first, so I didn't miss out there and I don't own a TV, so I tend to be more productive with my evening time after my boy goes to sleep. You'd be surprised to find how much extra time you'll have, both for yourself and your family, if you get rid of your TV; every second spent in front of it, is time you'll never get back.
I choose to focus on the rewards those sacrifices will produce. Once I compare the rewards, with what I gave up, I find there really isn't anything to compare; I guess it's really how you look at it.
The question I ask myself is where would I be now if I didn't sacrifice those menial things?
