Focus on What Matters
. . . not what doesn’t
If you want to do your best at anything, then you must focus on it. Flitting from one thing to another dilutes your attention.
Suppose you decide to wash your car. As you aren’t close to a water supply, you carry the brush, chamois, bucket of water, and soap out to it.
Just before you get started, some friends show up. They see the water and each one takes a sip. Then they leave because they don’t want to wash your car.
As you start to put soap in the bucket, you notice that it’s empty, and because it’s hot, you decide that tomorrow would be a better day.
You could’ve washed your car while talking to your friends. Instead, you changed your focus.
You have to decide what matters most, but the only way you can do your best is to focus on one thing.
