Hey, good Saturday morning, my friends. If you guys don't know where I'm at, I'm in Houston, Texas. It's hard to tell. I am bundled up. It is 42 degrees out here in Houston, Texas. It's a great Saturday morning and I just wanted to share a quick thought with you guys and invite you to Monday morning Jump Start, which is every Monday morning from 7:15 to 7:45 live on my Facebook page at rtorison. R T O R R I S O N I hope you jump in 7:15. This week we're going to talk about the one thing, not the many things. It's all about focus. You know, Steve Jobs said this. He said people think focus means saying yes to the thing you've got to focus on, but that's not what it means at all. It means saying no to the hundred other good ideas that there are. Right? Gary Keller wrote a great book called One Thing. I think it was called the One Thing that he wrote. It says not everything matters equally and success isn't a game won by whoever does the most. Yet that's exactly how most of us play it on a daily basis. We think if we do more, get more in check more boxes that we have accomplished more are more successful. And I'm here to tell you that's not true. So I want to talk about on Monday briefly with you guys at Jump Start, a little bit about the one thing, not the many things that we need to focus on. Focus is a hard thing in today's world. We are distracted by so many things. So join me Monday morning for Monday morning jump start, 7:15-7:45am if you're in Pearland, Texas, come and join us at Pearland Coffee Roasters. If not, join us live here on Facebook. We'd love to have you and appreciate you guys in believing your best is yet to come and believing there's more, right? There's more purpose, more impact and more significance that you were meant to have on your life, your family and your relationships. So join us Monday morning for Jumpstart 7:15am right here on Facebook Live.
