Ok, so I guys really need and would appreciate your opinions on focus on one thing VS focus on multiple things.

So this thread is not about multitasking (doing multiple things at once), I'm very clearly against that, and one of the tasks will always suffer, so you better don't multitask things that require full attention.

This is my experience:

- I can do any single thing I focus in on!

Meet whoever, learn new skill, and yes, even achieve business success we all strive for. So why didn't I use this to focus in on building my fastlane biz? Because of that keyword single. When I say focusing on a single thing, it means total focus. A single goal. NOTHING else. I literally don't care if I ate, or how I dress, unless that's directly connected to achieving the given goal. My place becomes a mess, everything turns to chaos except what I'm focused on. This works for me.

But the problem is, I'd like to achieve multiple things. Not by multitasking, but by setting aside daily time strictly for goal 1, then goal 2, then goal 3 - of course in order of priority.

I'm not sure if this can work, and hasn't worked for me so far.

HOW ABOUT YOU? I'd really like to know.
