ONE Important Thing

Scott Smith - Motivation and Coaching
About this episode

ONE Important Thing


I have a question for you.


What is your ONE most important activity?  


What is the ONE core activity that, if you do, everything else is fine?


What is the ONE core activity that, if you don’t do it, causes everything to fall apart?


Many people focus on anything but the most critical activity in their lives. They are usually surprised when things fall apart.


Is it showing up for work on time or doing a great job?


Could it be your unflinching attention to your family?


Does your business have ONE activity that causes people to buy from you?


When you focus on your ONE most important activity - everything else will take care of itself.
