So I finished reading the book "The One Thing" and the book is centered around this quote "What is the ONE thing I can do such that by doing it everything else will be easier or unnecessary?"
So it talks about the one thing in a big picture and in the small picture. Would an example of this be like the big picuture I want to become an entrepreneur, and the small picture well this sorta confusing me, there are so many aspects on entrepreneurship like networking, marketing, programming if you are building some software, etc . I don't know if the book is trying to say only do one thing and don't do anything else, or do one thing per day. This part of the quote confuses me "such that by doing it everything else will be easier or unnecessary?" So if I was to focus the whole day on marketing my product for example how does marketing make everything else easier?
