18. Focus on A-B

Colleagues,

MVP: Focus on A-B


My mind always goes to the big idea.


There is good in that, but usually it is better to focus on the next step. Stay focused, be simple, and just get better incrementally.


Being a bit better today than yesterday is enough.



Any small improvement today is more valuable than a big change months from now.


I should confess, of all the wisdom this month, this is consistently the hardest one for me to follow. I love big ideas and grand plans, but they only work when we can break them down into A-B steps.


Todays intention: Focus on taking one small action that makes one thing a tiny bit easier right now.


Our annual summer tradition is to share the most important things I’ve learned from other people throughout the month of July. This summer we have 20 lessons. You will receive one a day until we are done. If you feel particularly moved and want to share a reaction, please ​reply​! 


Cheers!
