It would help if you had given the context in which you want to use the word. Anyway, two words came to my mind, and both were verbs:
to trade off and to compromise.
Since I don't have English as my first language, there are probably better answers than mine.

Perhaps you mean Sublimate.
To divert the energy associated with (an unacceptable impulse or drive) into a personally and socially acceptable activity.

It can also be used as a verb -- pronounced as mahr-ter (or, like 'smarter' without the s ;) )
