The power of IMPACT

A sage once explained that:

  • efficient is doing things right;
  • effective is doing the right things right.

There have been times in my life when I’ve been a very busy fool, running around all over the map doing the wrong things right.

I see exhausted owners and managers doing this every day.

Today I’m starting my third month using Michael Hyatt’s Full Focus Planner system (and I don’t claim any affiliate fees for mentioning that here).

Looking back over my first two months using the system, the main benefit has been to take a few moments every morning to ask myself:

What are the three tasks I can perform today that will have the greatest IMPACT?

IMPACT means making a difference.

Don’t tell me you are busy – we are all busy.

Tell me what difference you are going to make today.
