1. Going Small
⚫️Going small is ignoring all the things you could do and doing what you should do.

2. The Domino Effect

3. Prioritization
⚫️Prioritization, the 80/20 principle, and the idea of success versus to-do lists all come down to this simple truth:

7. The One Thing
⚫️If you try to do everything, you could wind up with nothing. If you try to do just ONE Thing, the right ONE THING, you could wind up with everything you ever wanted.
The ONE THING is real. If you put it to work, it will work.
