2. “Being busy does not always mean real work. The
object of all work is production or accomplishment
and to either of these ends there must be
forethought, system, planning, intelligence, and
honest purpose, as well as perspiration. Seeming
to do is not doing.” Thomas Edison
7. “…one of my mantras - focus and simplicity.
Simple can be harder than complex:
You have to work hard to get your thinking clean
to make it simple. But it's worth it in the end
because once you get there, you can move
mountains.” Steve Jobs

13. Time and Focus
• Take a look at where you are spending your time
and ask yourself-
– Am I connecting with my purpose daily?
– Am I being true to my vision for my life and my
business?
– Are my values guiding my decisions and actions
– Is what I’m currently doing important in the
achievement of my goals, vision, and objectives?
– Is what I’m planning to do for the rest of the
day/week aligned with my priorities?
– What excuses am I making for not doing what I really
want to be doing? Why?
