Unrelenting Bludgeoning Focus

My new phrase. I have a new focus in my work life, and I repeat this to myself when I am on calls and talking to people.

Is what I am being asked to do in line with my mission? It is not? Then I am not doing it.

Unrelenting.

Are people in my way or are there processed that are preventing me from accomplishing my mission? There are? Then beat them down.

Bludgeoning.

Am I working right now on my new mission? Am I pouring every ounce of energy and effort into my new mission? I am not? Then I need to….

Focus.
