How Focusing on 1 Thing Changed Everything for Betty Dao


Listen Later

One of the main principles I try to live by and teach my students is to focus on one thing

Focus on one goal for the year. Focus on one area to improve. Focus on one limiting belief. 

Just slow down and take as much time as it takes to get the result you want in that ONE area and then move onto the next thing. But most people push against this because we’ve been conditioned to believe we need to change it ALL…and FAST. So we set a ton of goals, tell ourselves we’re behind, and scramble because we think there isn’t enough time. 

But we all know what happens. We get overwhelmed and give up. The irony is that if you slow down to work on one thing until you’ve mastered it, you actually start solving your problems. 

That’s exactly what Betty Dao did. She was in my program Pave Your Path and she took my advice to focus on just ONE thing. She got to work on that. She even stopped coming to the coaching calls because she didn’t want to be influenced to work on other things and she changed her life!

She’s on the podcast today to talk about her journey.
