A SIMPLE RULE TO FOLLOW…

Never do a “C”

(EVEN THOUGH IT’S EASY AND FUN)

When you can do an “A”

Page 28: The Journey of Success: What I've Learned about Life, Love, and Business

Don’t MAJOR in MINOR things.

Where are you spendingmost of your time?

Are your goals, tasks and accomplishments HIGH IMPACT?

Multitasking…

doesn’t work.

28% loss in productivity

Page 32: The Journey of Success: What I've Learned about Life, Love, and Business

It’s the same rush!Switching back and forth through multitasking drops IQ by 10 points.

Smoking weed drops IQ by 5 points.

So, if you’re multitasking, you’re actuallywalking around all day stoned.
