Just ONE Thing…That’s All

At the “Implementation Coaching Event™” we discussed a book I read and now highly recommend…The ONE Thing.
Interestingly enough, like another great book you’ve probably read, the whole concept of the book is in the title. If you ever have trouble focusing or feel like your business has hit a bit of a plateau or you just need a boast in your work life, read this book.
And, not to ruin it for you, but here is the focusing question that you should ask yourself if you feel like you lack focus:
“What is the ONE THING I can do such that by doing it everything else will be easier or unnecessary?”
This one thing (no pun intended) will change how you do business and your productivity if you will just focus on the One Thing every single day, and not let anything distract you until you have completed your one thing.
Lack of focus is one of the biggest challenges most business owners face today. They have a hard time completing, implementing and executing because they have Bright Shiny Object Syndrome (BSOS), and also because there is so much to get done on a daily basis.
The overwhelm from feeling like you have too much to do comes from a lack of leverage and systems in your business. It also comes from allowing distractions into your day and not controlling your schedule. You have to protect your time – otherwise it gets gone and you have no idea where it went, and you are left wondering what you accomplished during the day.
If any of this rings true for you, just keep bringing yourself back to center – back to the thing you need to complete or accomplish today – just one thing, not 3 or 5 or the 100 things on your to-do list…
Just one thing – sounds simple, doesn’t it?
Try it and let me know how you do…
Prosperity & Abundance to You –
