from 2016-05-17T08:00
Welcome to episode 47 of the Food Blogger Pro podcast! In this episode, Bjork interviews Jay Papasan, coauthor of the New York Times Bestseller The ONE Thing.
If you’re anything like me, there are always more things to do than we have time for, and prioritizing what to work on every day can be really tough. As a result, we’re pulled in so many different directions working on different projects that we find it really difficult to make any measurable progress on any one thing.
If this describes you, you are not alone. Jay Papasan and Gary Keller discovered that this was a problem that faced so many of their employees and coworkers at the Keller Williams Realty group. After Gary worked for years with his employees to help them discover the things they should be focusing on, he and Jay, a NYT bestselling book editor, came together to write a book about it, called The ONE Thing.
Today, Jay joins Bjork in an interview that is sure to change the way you are thinking about your projects and priorities.
In this episode, Jay shares:
- How he went from Real Estate professional to book author
- Why defining a single priority can help move you forward
- How saying no to opportunities can be relaxing
- How to make sure you get your priority done
- Whether you can make yourself a morning person
- How to know what to focus on when there are so many different areas of life that need attention
- How to take huge goals and make them manageable for today
- What the #1 thing is that makes people succeed
