Is it yes or no?

Thanks to Diane Larkin for sending me the quote which is below. I'm not going to say much about it but I hope you'll read it slowly and think about what you have to say "no" to.
 
"People think focus means saying yes to the thing you've got to focus on. But that's not what it means at all. It means saying no to the hundred other good ideas that there are. You have to pick carefully. I'm actually as proud of the things we haven't done as the things I have done. Innovation is saying no to 1000 things."

Building a successful Shaklee business also requires saying "no" to the dozens or hundreds of things that have potential to get us off track. Personally I really like this message because it's hitting the bulls-eye as far as building a future. As it says, you have to pick carefully.
 
Enthusiastically,
Gary Burke
