Focus, Focus, Focus!

Have you ever heard people say don't put al of your eggs in one basket? Ignore that. Put all your eggs in one basket and watch it as if your life depends on it.

Another important lesson I learned at GBI is the importance of focusing on one thing at a time. If your focus is scattered, you won't be able to give 100% on what you're trying to achieve, which in turn brings mediocre result.

Think of it this way. When people mention Michael Jordan, what comes to your mind? What do you associate him with? He's one of the greatest basketball players in history because he focuses all his time, energy and attention on being the best basketball player.

You wouldn't see Michael Jordan rushing from basketball practice to the circuit trying to figure out how to beat Michael Schumacher.

The great athletes are great at what they do because they focus on being good at one and only one thing.

Likewise, if you want to be good at something, focus all your time, energy and attention on that one thing.
