The ONE Thing You Need to Focus On


Hey there Reader,

As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, we just finished reading The ONE Thing by Gary Keller in our book club in The Garden of Ease. I've wanted to read this book for a while, so I was very happy when the members voted on this book for our last book club selection.

I got a lot out of reading the book and discussing it with the other members of our community, so I decided to share some of what I've learned with others. I have a new blog, along with a quick-action workbook and a more in-depth workbook to help others who choose to read (or re-read) The ONE Thing.

We all have long to-do lists, endless projects, and a million things pulling us in different directions.

But what if only ONE thing truly mattered?

That’s the big idea behind The One Thing—and it’s exactly what I’m diving into in my latest blog post. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, this might be just what you need.

3 Things to Simplify Your Focus Today:

1. Not Everything Matters Equally

We tend to treat everything on our to-do list as equally important—but it’s not. The key is to identify the one task that will create the biggest impact and move you forward the fastest.

2. Ask Yourself: What’s My ONE Thing?

This is the game-changing question from the book:
"What’s the ONE thing I can do, such that by doing it, everything else will be easier or unnecessary?"
Your answer to this question should be your #1 focus.

3. Grab My Free Quick Action Guide!

I put together a Quick Action Guide to help you apply this concept immediately. You can download it directly from my latest blog post.

Happy New Year! I hope you're feeling energized and ready for what 2026 has in store. I wanted to start the year by giving you something practical: a 2026 Monthly Calendar you can print and use all year long. But here's the thing: this isn't just any calendar. You'll notice there's a box on each month that says "MY BIG GOAL." That's intentional. Because here's what I've learned after nearly 20 years of helping entrepreneurs build sustainable businesses: we don't fail because we don't set...

100% Responsibility

2025 is coming to a close! Have you reviewed the year yet? I did. And here's what I found out. I've been making excuses. Yes, I know better. But... This year has had its challenges, and I've been blaming my fatigue, which, yes, IS a REAL thing (perimenopause is no joke), BUT I've been using it as an excuse for not getting stuff done. My best focus time is in the morning. I'm an early bird, always have been. Afternoons are exhausting (even more so lately). I have always protected my morning...
