By limiting priorities, we can actually accomplish more. I work with many entrepreneurial leaders and the difficulty most face when they are launching their businesses is that they are trying to be all things to all people all the time. It’s impossible to accomplish anything when you have no container to operate in. You say yes to everything and work more and more. It eventually becomes a paradox of choice. Too many choices, too many responsibilities, and it leads to indecision and little forward movement. It turns into chaos. This isn’t limited to entrepreneurs, it’s all of us. We all try to be the best we can be, but our ability to be our best depends on where our eyes are looking.

If you don’t protect your mornings, a million different things will take up your time. Other people will only respect you as much as you respect yourself.

Don’t check your social media or email until after your 3 hours of deep work. Your morning time should be spent on output, not input.
