“The sun’s rays can be warm and pleasant, but if you focus them through a magnifying glass, they can start a fire. That is the power of focus. Most of us aren’t failing because we lack talent; we’re failing because we’re spread too thin. We’re trying to go a mile in a hundred different directions instead of going a hundred miles in one direction. To achieve greatness, you have to be willing to be misunderstood. You have to say 'no' to good opportunities so you can stay available for the 'great' ones. Stop being a jack-of-all-trades and start being a master of your mission.”
