be a maker in the morning and a manager in the afternoon. - Gary W. Keller

When everything feels urgent and important, everything seems equal. We become active and busy, but this doesn’t actually move us any closer to success. Activity is often unrelated to productivity, and busyness rarely takes care of business.

Every minute of every day, the question is never will we be doing something, but rather what that something is we’ll be doing.

Where I’d had huge success, I had narrowed my concentration to one thing, and where my success varied, my focus had too.
