    You mentioned millionaires have multiple streams of income. I’m not an expert on this but I assumed they focused on One Thing and once they saw success then moved on to focus on the next One Thing and kept repeating that until they had multiple streams of income.

    • @gmr9265
      @gmr9265 Рік тому +2

      You made a good point. Another possibility is that they honed in on building a really strong skill and used that skill in various businesses.

      When I got started in real estate investing in 2016 I just got out of the army and I was working as a corrections officer making $35k a year
      I had shiny object syndrome. I was looking at single family houses, condos, apartments, and multiple cities and states
      After reading "the one thing" I zeroed in and Laser focused on multi-family Apartment buildings in the Phoenix Metro. I was looking primarily for 4 to 10 unit properties that can provide at least $200 monthly cash flow after all expenses and a building that had value add potential meaning I could increase the income and lower the expenses
      I currently have 45 multi-family units all in the Phoenix Arizona Metro and I'm currently under contract on another another four unit apartment building.
      It really does help if you're decisive and say yes to one thing and then no to lots of others

    • @johnnyb33good21
      @johnnyb33good21 2 місяці тому

      So yes technically I have 45 streams of income but they're all zeroed in on apartments so it's not like I have completely total opposite side hustles that are distracting me where are some people will be buying and selling cars, or creating an e-commerce store or making UA-cam videos

    This may have already been covered in someone else's comment, so disregard if you already "got" it.
    The one thing doesn't mean you can't do all the things that are important to you. They are saying specifically, build a habit to exclusively a part of your day on "one" thing. After that habit has been built, which takes an average of 66 days, then you can move to the next habit. If you already have a habit built to make podcasts, then keep making podcasts and keep making them better and better. If you want to add a habit to improve your health, then start building that habit exclusively until it is truly a habit. "Trying" to build 5 habits at the same time, splitting up your will power among them, will usually mean you end up with zero habits.
    You'll know if it's a habit or not, because without thinking about it, you'll feel weird if you don't do that thing each day.
    To your point about millionaires in the US having multiple streams of income. Yes, they have multiple, but it's doubtful they built each of them at the same time. They probably did one exclusively until it was generating income and growing by itself. By itself means, you don't spend any time on it. You could walk away for 6 months and come back with a larger business than when you left. This implies a lot, as in you have people and systems in place that are growing it for you.

      @Livingformondays 5 років тому +1

      Great summary, Rahul! That's the exact thing and 66 Days can be a long time but it is totally doable!

      @user-nj1zu2nf1x 4 роки тому +1

      I have so many things in life I'm behind on, mostly bills, setting up systems my business and hiring people..
      My question is I'm supposed to forget the rest and focus on one thing only?

    • @CuriouslyInquisitive
      @CuriouslyInquisitive 4 роки тому +4

      Craig M No! The focusing question is ‘What is the ONE thing as such that everything else becomes easier or unnecessary?’ You find a good answer, blockout time for that task for when your willpower is strongest, you focus on that task. Then, everything else has the rest of the day. You will find in time that your one thing has leverage and makes other things easier or unnecessary.

    Dear Clark, you're amazing! You go into the details and how-comes, and this make all the difference. To know the general idea of the book is worthy, but sometimes useless. You provide much more than the average, explaining all the content of the book, and this is crucial for the self-development. Thanks from Brazil.

    @JD.......... 5 років тому +19

    SUMMARY: (the power of focus and priority)
    Dominos: the power of momentum
    The 1 Thing: put 4 hours toward it every day
    -“effective at all things, master of 1”
    -“if you chase 2 rabbits, you won’t catch either”
    Multitasking is Impossible. Focus, Mindfulness
    Will power is like a muscle, as well as limited.
    -channel willpower to primary tasks early in day
    80/20: optimizes most important things in life
    Balancing major Roles in life - varying quality
    Implement Necessity: deadlines/urgency
    Ask yourself “THE Focusing Question”
    Address All Horizons of your life, big and small
    4 thieves: can’t say no (is it a “hell yes”?); unsupportive environment; poor health; too much chaos
    Apply the 1 Thing: Define - “what would this look like if it were easy?”

    Clark, I truly agree that Multitasking is a big lie, It serves at the pleasure of others who are at the receiving end but personally it is never getting focused on the one thing which is most important. I have been praised for my multitasking skills, but now not only quit multitasking but also learnt to say no as well. Thank you for this wonderful video of The One Thing, It is always on my Desk to remind me of my area of expertise.

    @GergC0521 5 років тому

    I am crazy busy all the time and jump from priority to priority at work and try the same with a Real Estate Investing Business I'm trying to start. It generally leads to little progress on most things. All of this was great and will have to pick up the book. But the top point for me is Live by Priority-Big Picture/Small focus. I need to revisit my goals list and make the progressive goal list to be able to set a trajectory (Someday, 5 year, etc.). And I need to keep that someplace I will visit it constantly, not in the notebook on the shelf from the class I took last year.
    Great video, thanks!

    Great summary and the insight that comes along with it.
    Focus the One Thing despite being distracted with all the shiny objects around us especially when your executive function is not 100%.
    It takes a lot of practice when you’re creative.
    Saying hell yes and NO to the rest.
    I’ve surrounded myself with uber successful people and you’re right, they ALL have MSI.
    Bottomline, be whatever you want to be and do more of that, so you can have the life you’re designed to have. 🧠❤️⚡️

I don’t know if it is a equipment problem or something you can go and edit with software but it however you see fit to Make it better I do that.

    Most millionaires started out focused on one thing until that thing became successful then they focused on another until that is "good" then more and more. Once we master one thing, then the next etc....we then grow in how to take things from seed stage to tree stage thus growing to managing multiple streams of income.

I am still working on the hour but with measured success. Just saying no and shunning interruptions that can wait. Has increased personal production. With this said I have hardly made a full day of sticking with one important thing at a time. Thanks for the reminder.

    If you try and chase two rabbits, you will not catch either one
    This statement taught us not to be greedy.
    But on the other hand, don't forget this concept
    DON’T PUT ALL YOUR EGGS IN ONE BASKET
    Sometimes we fall in love with our one business idea. But we are not really sure about that.
    So we should create an alternative plan or plan B.
    Sometimes we can do it one by one.
    Sometimes we have to do it in the same time.
    Just my two cents :)
