Great tips that we should always keep in mind.

I really like number 2. Losing our flow forces us to start from scratch every time, neglecting what we’ve accomplished so far and failing to recognize its true value.

A great idea for an article!

Thank you so much, Maxim.

These are incredibly helpful! I understand why the “choose the focus 1-3” hit you so hard. I didn’t notice until I read that comment that I was allowing my schedule to be subject to my circumstances.

Do you have a lot of things on your list? How do you handle them? I am glad you found it helpful. Thanks for reading!

Yes 🙋‍♀️🤦‍♀️ I do. Between writing a book, newsletter, design clients, family, there are a lot of tasks. As a recovering people pleaser…I am seriously reconsidering how I handle them all after reading this article.

Before the focus was “I can make all of this work, God has got me” to “Am I focusing on what He is putting on my heart?” And are there places that I could add templates (like you mentioned) in my life to make things easier. Great advice. Thank you!

Oh, you have a lot! I am sure you’ll make it and clear focus on the most impactful actions will help you achieve what you aim for.

You are welcome!

I also see much faster progress with my newsletter when focusing on several key things instead of spreading the effort on a lot of smaller actions that seem to be useful.
