Today, we unpack something that we all have to deal with every hour of every day – focus. Focus is the key to achieving our goals and living to our full potential, and we begin today’s conversation with an example of how embracing a habit of focus has improved Arash’s life. We discover what “deliberate practice” means and how to adopt it in our lives, how distractions can only lead one to mediocrity, important lessons from our Freedom Framework, and the role of mindset, intention, and discipline in maintaining focus. We also discuss the efficacy of working in short yet focused sprints, how to be honest with yourself without blaming yourself, how adopting a habit of focus can drastically and instantly improve your life, and why all must know and understand just how important focus is in our lives.
