Lessons Learned on Efficiency

It's becoming more and more obvious to me that the key to success in life is not smarts/intelligence, it's not necessarily who you know either.

It's your ability to focus-and remain focused-on a task.

Can you clear out the clutter of:

• email lists you don't read anymore
• not answering the phone when you're in the middle of another task (unless it's your spouse!)
• NOT multi-tasking. Yes, I'm serious

Remove the distractions. Stay focused. Get the job done.

The more I think about this, the more it sounds familiar...some of these themes were echoed in The Millionaire Mind.
