The six lies between you and the success

Excerpt from a book called "The ONE Thing" that can be purchased here! This book talks about the advantages of having one thing being done at the time, instead of having a to-do list, you should have a focus list or a success list. Here it goes:

Over time, myths and mistruths get thrown around so often they eventually feel familiar and start to sound like the truth.

Then we start basing important decisions on them. The challenge we all face when forming our success strategies is that. "I just have too much that has to be done", "I will get more done by doing things at the same time", "I should be able to do whenever I want", "Maybe I shouldn't dream so big". Repeat those thoughts often enough and they become the six lies about success that keep us from living "The ONE Thing". 

The six lies between you and success:

  1. Everything Matters Equally
  2. Multitasking
  3. A Disciplined Life
  4. Willpower is Always on Will-Call
  5. A Balanced Life
  6. Big is Bad
The six lies are beliefs that get into our heads and become operational principles driving us the wrong way. Highways that end a bunny trails. Fool's gold that diverts us from the mother lode. If we're going to maximize our potential, we're going to have to make sure we put these lies to bed.
