It’s easy to find yourself with more to do than there are hours in the day, especially with a habit of involving yourself in lots of things. When paralysis is looming, it pays to ask what’s going to move the needle most.

Not how many easy tasks you can knock off the list.

Not what is someone shouting loudest about.

No. What will move the needle most toward success?

Work on that.

If you’re not clear about what success means, well, work on that.
