Most of us have a long list of things about our lives (or ourselves) that we would like to change. And while that is a great place to start, when you are working on creating a more fulfilling life, the problem is that when we try to make a bunch of changes at once, we end up changing nothing. That is why knowing what to focus on and when is essential.

Key Takeaways: 

• All goals feel and are important, and doing them in a particular order doesn’t mean you don’t value or will forget about the other goals.
• Focusing on one new behaviour at a time -- instead of trying to change everything at once -- can actually help you accomplish your goals more quickly.
• Cultivating the ability to prioritize and focus can help us with other aspects of our lives
• When choosing what to focus on, prioritize behaviours that you perceive to be impactful AND that you feel ready to tackle now. 

Lab Experiment: 

• Make a list of all the changes that you’d like to make. Consider their potential impact and your readiness to do them.
• Choose no more than three to focus on and put all the others on hold - for now.
• Estimate how long you will need to focus on each one (in order to either accomplish it or create a solid habit.)
• Decide what the very first step for each one will be, including when/where/how you will take it--and then take that first step!
