Most of the times the thing you're sacrificing are not necessarily good per se; usually they're "safe" things or situations that you do not want to sacrifice because doing it means you're stepping out of your comfort zone.
On the other hand, sometimes the things we sacrifice just aren't there. Many people might speak about a woman, "She sacrificed family life for a career in business". But she never had a family in the first place so how could she have sacrificed it? If she DID have a family, then I'm sure she and her family thought about it a lot of times and decided her sacrificing her family was important for her development and that they understand and this is a good thing.

The motivation behind a sacrifice is that the reward > cost. If I sacrifice 1 virgin the volcano gods will spare the lives of hundreds. In a more realistic example, if I sacrifice my beloved car by selling it I'll will have money to pay for school. ;_;
And, in the end the love you take is equal to the love you make.
