The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing."
- Stephen Covey: Author, organizational, leadership, and family expert.
Try this out for a month-just a month, you can do it.
Copy the above quote and print it out. Tape it to your bathroom mirror, your car dash, your computer monitor, your exercise bicycle, and your refrigerator. Read it and think about what is most important to you = your big why. Reflecting on this quote every day for a month will help your realize what you get up to do and why you are doing it. The small things, the bumps in the road, the elbow scrapes, the client who is not so cooperative – will become smaller as you focus on what is truly important to you.
That will differ for all of us so I am not going to give you a list. You can come up with your own. Then as the days go on in your month, you will be more aware and more focused – letting the trivial things go and marching on to achieve your goals, hopes and dreams.
Just a month - you can do it!

Harry - blogging is a great way to get the information out to the people. Just do it!
Love the quote. It's all about focus and consistency. Two major traits we need to be successful.
Great words of wisdom Kathleen. We have a mantra too. "We don't stop for no one, We don't stop for no one, We don't stop for no one, We don't stop for no one, we don't stop..... " :)))
Great words of wisdom. We are many times sidetracked on what is important and lose focus on the goal.
A great quote for sure. Stay focused and win. Have a great week and stay warm up there.
Great quote Kathleen. Steven is one of my favs! Focus Focus Focus - and doing it consistently is the key - no matter what the task or mind frame one is working on.
Keeping the goal in mind, important stuff. What's in our heads is what really counts to our success. Glad to have this reminder, this is one of my favorite affirmations too....t
O.K Kathleen I am on board I have printed it out and will be focusing for the next month. I will let you know what happens.

I always liked that quote Kathleen! Thanks for reminding me of it-it is on my desk and mirror-I am in!
Kathleen, great quote and challenge! We will have to put it into practice!
I appreciate you posting this, Kathleen. It is very easy to get distracted, and this will provide a main focal point.
I am at the crossroads right now - so I will gladly give this a try. Figuring out the main thing should be easy enough when you eliminate the little and less important things!
////////////////The key is to start and you do not have to wait until November 1 - start now. I want comments back in one month and am holding you accountable!!! Now that has got to be intimidating right!!!!
Are you really going to do this or just say you will do it?
