The Single Focus

Each day, choose one focus. Not a list of tasks. Not multiple priorities. One thing that matters most today. This focus guides your choices. It helps you distinguish between what is important and what is just urgent.

When you have a single focus, you can work with intention. You know what matters. You can say no to things that do not align. You can say yes to things that do. This clarity makes the day more effective and less scattered.

Your focus might be: finishing a project, having an important conversation, making progress on a goal, or simply being present with what you are doing. The specific focus matters less than having one. When you have clarity about what matters, everything else becomes easier.

Try it tomorrow. Before you start your day, choose one focus. Write it down. Let it guide your choices. Notice how much more intentional your day becomes when you have this clarity. The single focus is not about doing only one thing. It is about knowing what matters most.
